Will you be in the carbon capture kill zone

"As countries like Canada plot a dramatic expansion of CO2 pipelines to help deal with rising emissions from the O&G sector, - now account for the largest source of emissions in the country, managing safety risks will become increasingly important, because when carbon dioxide pipelines fail, they can fail catastrophically."

It's not a major issue in the upcoming existential November but it bloody well should be.

"But the warming we've seen in recent decades is too rapid to be linked to changes in Earth's orbit and too large to be caused by solar activity.

One of the smoking guns that tells us the Sun is not causing global warming comes from looking at the amount of solar energy that hits the *top of the atmosphere."

Rules discourage Canadians from generating more solar power than they use

Many Canadians want to install rooftop solar panels to help. But while that can lower their electricity bills, they can't actually get paid for it because many jurisdictions limit the power generation of a rooftop solar system to the amount you consume, and customers can only be compensated in bill credits, not cash."

The way we eat is changing. Here's what you need to know about the future of food
