UK’S ROYAL SOCIETY TO UNDERTAKE ‘COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW’ OF POPULATION GROWTH The UK’s Royal Society has announced a major study into the impacts of human population. A largely taboo topic for decades. The Royal Society wants to provide a ‘comprehensive review of the science’ of population growth. The study will focus especially on sustainable development in the face of population growth. Environmentalists have long argued that the growing human population is one of the biggest reasons ,along with overconsumption , behind the current environmental problems extending from climate change to deforestation. Head of the project Sir John Sulston acknowledges that the issue of population is a controversial one worldwide. “This is a topic that has gone to and fro in the last few decades, and appears to be moving back up the political agenda now.” the Nobel Prize laureate told the BBC. “So it seems a good moment for the Royal Society to launch a study that looks objectively at the scientific basis for changes in population, for the different regional and cultural factors that may affect that, and at the effects that population changes will have on our future in term of sustainable development.” The group studying population is eclectic, including environmentalists, social scientists, economists, theologians, demographists, and even naturalist David Attenborough, one of the few public figures actively speaking out on overpopulation. . |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75201150 United Kingdom 07/10/2017 09:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | GEOENGINEERING -- SOLAR RADIATION MANAGEMENT IS FAST AND INEXPENSIVE The easy and fast way to reduce global temperatures would be through geoengineering. Spraying sulphate aerosols into the atmosphere would mimic the reflective particles released from volcanic eruptions, cooling the planet and returning us to pre-industrial temperatures. Such a project would probably be cheap. One tonne of particles would be sufficient to cancel out the climate effects of almost 30,000 tons of carbon dioxide, and Wagner and Weitzman estimate that the total cost of lowering the entire planet’s temperature is likely to be less than $10bn per year. Due to the affordability of this project, any single country could unilaterally undertake a geoengineering project, bypassing the bureaucratic hurdles and perpetual gridlock of international agreements. But the ease with which geoengineering could be used could actually be one of its biggest drawbacks. Governance difficulties multiply when every country and adventurous billionaire gains access to the world’s thermostat. . |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70862022 Imagine what will happen in another 10-15 years. If we are even alive by then(grammar?) Its not fuki, its wifi, 4g, and now soon 5g. Fukishima caused some problems sure. But I believe its more radiation from electronics and something to do with the food and shit they are burning in jet fuel. |

They do it with gall bladder surgeries so why wouldn't they do it with other "ailments?" Last Edited by Ravenage on 07/10/2017 09:52 AM "The fundamental question of our time is whether the West has the will to survive. ... Our own fight for the West does not begin on the battlefield — it begins with our minds, our wills, and our souls... Americans, Poles, and the nations of Europe value individual freedom and sovereignty. We must work together to counter forces, whether they come from inside or out, from the South or the East, that threaten over time to undermine these values and to erase the bonds of culture, faith and tradition that make us who we are. I am here today not just to visit an old ally, but to hold it up as an example for others who seek freedom and who wish to summon the courage and the will to defend our civilization." ~President Donald J Trump "...sometimes, you have to be a high-riding bitch to survive. Sometimes, being a bitch is all a woman has to hang onto." ~Vera Donovan "Pain or damage don't end the world, or despair or fucking beatings. The world ends when you're dead.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75202207 After all, they either drink, smoke tobacco, smoke pot, or use a combination thereof. All of those things cause cancer. Smoking pot does NOT cause cancer you fool. I have smoked pot everyday for 44 years now. No one I know has cancer from pot. It actually prevents lung cancer. |
