It’s one of those things that would take a worldwide concertive effort. We could replace the majority of plastic with hemp and glass, but profit margins are more important than preserving the planet for corporations.
That’s the dream
In summary, one of the biggest sources of plastic in the Mediterranean is being tackled. Despite the Mediterranean holding 1% of the world’s water, it holds 7% of the world’s micro plastics and the pollution around Albania is beyond maddening. One organisation and one company have come together. They’re blocking the damn and collecting 1 tonne of plastic a day. After which they compress it and sell it to recycling plants to make it self-sustainable. They consider this a huge success.
The fact that 46000 people are volunteering is amazing. But also fuck capitalism and the fact that it’s at the heart of so much pollution.
Great find. Thank you.

At this point I genuinely want to see pirates that take to the seas and sink ships that are caught overfishing or fishing endangered species.

I like my smart meter and I also enjoy not having some random potential rapist knock my door and expect to get into my home.
I think we need to think about how we as a society support these megalithic companies. I’m not against them providing services, but not while they dodge tax and they should be forced to match whatever they generate for themselves with contributions to the grid to help keep the cost down for normal people.
I would hope they stuck to clean energy though.
😂 at 0.00% from solar 😭
Well done China and Africa.
It’s a surface level net basically
Home battery packs are great and definitely a part of a modern sustainable solution to our energy needs, but there’s obviously much more palatable solutions than Tesla. That said, I would rather people have Tesla power packs than none.
Would you mind posting this in its own thread so more people can see it. I may be biased, but I think this is super interesting and as many people should see it as possible.
I remember seeing this
It talks about Stockholm Wood City: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_Wood_City
If you gave every house solar panels, a battery and a heat pump, you could probably semi-retire all of the nuclear reactors.
Magnetocaloric cooling.
