This is a good article.
Many of the restrictions on mobility and social activity will be achieved by “15-minute citiesâ€.
The internet is to be censored because the right is gaining traction.
Many people lived in places like this, many communist countries existed only 30 years ago, or if you wanted to experience it today it would be North Korea.Last edited by Taiga; Apr 19, 2023, 18:45.

BC has at least 19 pellet mills that export most of thier production to Europe.
They got permits when the pine bettles went through but now are competing with the lumber mills for prime forest.
Europe uses wood pellets to heat government buildings like schools and hospitals. Geen energy saving the environment.Last edited by shtferbrains; Apr 29, 2023, 22:35.

How many trees has the liberal / NDP coalition planted the past 6 years again ?? A lot of stoned unemployed people out there who should be working planting trees , but nah they get fancy hotel rooms , paid to do nothing but get stoned at government facilities in BC and watch the ships leave one after the other .

Left alone the carbon cycle and sinks are relatively stable unless there is a major event carbon release.
Forests capture and release carbon just as grasslands do. At some point they reach a maximum amount of stored carbon. Equilibrium in other words.
The difference now is that when human burn fossil fuels on a massive scale they release massive amounts of carbon that is not all recaptured by the carbon sinks. That's why CO2 in the atmosphere which was prior to the industrial revolution, only 280 ppm, is now over 420 ppm.
If forests and grasslands and all the other sinks were capable of capturing all the extra stored CO2 from fossil fuels then the levels of atmospheric carbon wouldn't have risen nor would they keep rising.
And since CO2 in the atmosphere has no borders, it is a worldwide problem that requires all countries including Canada to reduce carbon emissions.
So adding trees and retaining more carbon the soil will help, but they will not solve the problem of fossils fuel releases.
And contrary to some ill informed deniers, we are not going to run low on CO2 because we stop burning fossil fuels.

"And since CO2 in the atmosphere has no borders, it is a worldwide problem that requires all countries including Canada to reduce carbon emissions."
Asia emits 60% of the Co2 mostly from Coal. Canada is setting goals to reduce world emissions by .33%or the equivalent of a rounding error. When the goals appear unachievable we set new less achievable goals.
Asia has continued to expand their Coal use and are now saying they have no plans to change.
Their first concern is to develop their economies to produce things the world needs including the things the rich countries need to convert to low carbon.
Canada's biggest contribution to reducing C02 could be supplying much cleaner LNG to replace that coal.
But it is more virtuous pretend we are going to achieve our .33% reduction by setting unachievable goals and "Doing our part".
