I think we are saying the same thing. The best option is the recycling the toxic mess into valuable commodities and clean water.

Yes. Trying at least; (imo) Lemmy hasn’t quite got the critical mass yet. The official Reddit app is so crappy that each time I find myself being drawn back in, I leave really quickly. I didn’t expect me to find it that bad.

Yeah. And it’s having no noticeable effect on inflation … it’s almost like they are turning the wrong dial. The people hurting most with these interest rate rises are those who can least afford it and consequently have least effect on inflation.

Is the poster’s IP address, system, or other system identifier/location, tracked?

If I have users giantshortfacedbear and throwaway123. Then it could be inferred or impled that they are same person if there are from the same IP or phone.

Flush the water out is really the only option, the longer it sits in tailings ponds the more likely it is to have an uncontrolled spill. We absolutely need someone we can trust to define ‘clean’ though – and that’s not the government nor the mining companies; and we need someone we can trust to monitor it and confirm it is ‘clean’.

I’ve not seen, or perhaps not paid attention to, any blame game. This is exactly what all the modeling for climate change predicts, and it’s gonna get worse. So if people want to point fingers, the list of countries and industries that have produced most CHG gases ever, and currently, is easily available online.

That’s so cool. I might spin up a test community to have a play with that.

I’ve wondered how hard it would be to write a bot that, for each new link-post in a particular sub in Reddit, it creates a corresponding link-post in a matching community in Lemmy. Intrinsically I feel like it would be easy, and might make the switch for users from there to here easier as it is already seeded with ‘the content’.
