Thatis where the microbes come in.   Plastic is just organic compounds that contain energy that these bacteria harness and excrete simpler carbon molecules.   This process has been well know for decades so it's not new news! 

I guess you don’t drive a fossil fuel car, heat with gas or cool with electricity made with fossil fuel right? Otherwise you would be part of the problem.

I think you are putting too much into this report. If you use your stove properly you will avoid most of these hazards. And the rest will get lost in the many other hazards we are subjected to and yet somehow live long productive lives. You can prove anything with statistics, even opposites.

They may have plenty of data from their 1989 venus probe mission, and perhaps from the ussr balloon and probe mission a few years earlier. But yes, I agree, a full orbital entry test would be best.

Now we have have to deal with wokeness off planet as well as here?!  Please give your head a hellish shake!

The design would have to add wings, like some hybrid designs I’ve seen. There are Rotors for lift, and after attaining some altitude using the wings and push rotor to to provide speed and lift. This prototype shown is just for proof of concept I think and further development is obviously necessary.

Well, not quite. If there is no grid, then no charging stations. With gas you can dump a pile pretty much anywhere for people to access. It is much more flexible in that regard, as is hydrogen.

Wow, has anyone heard that plants are doing way better with more co2? There is more grain now per acre that requires less water and still has all of the same nutrients that grain had fifty years ago. I’m not making this up, it is a good news story for beer and people, amongst all of the negative press we hear on…

One thing that I have learned from my life working with technology is that new tech usually only ends up supplementing the old tech. We used to have just mainframes and then minis came along. Mainframes didn’t disappear. Then came PCs, same story. Then came laptops,tablets and IOT. All of these technologies coexist…

I imagine that most of the increased life expectancy can be attributed to the steady focus on developement of life extending drugs, like medicines that target high blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes, etc. When you consider the obesity problem in the first world that really become serious over the last fifty…

This is a truely out of touch aspirational piece on what will never ever happen. Why do I read this stuff? Just because we have had a pandemic doesn’t mean we have to use it as a vehicle to further suspect initiatives! I sense that there is a bit of jealousy on the part of climate alarmists when covid is getting all…

Bwahahaha!!!!!

you dont have to be in orbit to experience a loss of gravity...

Sorry, you are dreaming if you think we are going to get 20 ft of ocean rise in 20 years, let alone 200. But hey, continue to make yourself miserable...
