TailingsPond + 1,013 GE July 4 2 hours ago, Ecocharger said: However, there has been very little response to reduced outdoor particulates, indicating that indoor solid fuels is the major contributor to health issues. Reduced indoor pollution has resulted in major reductions of morbidity and probably mortality (one follows the other). So there is no indication that PM2.5 is a significant driver of mortality or morbidity statistics. You contradict yourself in your own post. An outdoor PM2.5 particle from solid fuels is essentially the same as an indoor particle from solid fuels. Incomplete combustion from any form of hydrocarbon (be it wood, coal, oil, etc.) will make similar pollutants. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the second quarter, Polestar delivered around 13,000 cars, missing Bernstein's forecast of 15,500." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TailingsPond + 1,013 GE July 5 (edited) Just think of some forms of pollution you dislike. A really simple question. For example, can I dump a sharp waste container full of used needles and a truckload of liquid pig waste on your lawn? Would you require a longitudinal study to know that is a bad idea? Probably not. You could wait until the diseases present themselves in your family but that would be silly. Common logic is all that is needed here. Things that make you cough are bad, simple. Go breathe some smoke and get back to me. Edited July 5 by TailingsPond Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TailingsPond + 1,013 GE July 6 Eco logic says that if you like bacon you should allow some pig shit to be put on your lawn. However, do not concern yourself because shit emissions are trending down and your family won't immediately get sick. If you eat bacon and don't allow the pig shit externality from the pork industry you are a hypocrite. That is the way fossil fuels work except people can choose not to eat pork - and should be exempt from their share of the pig shit. Most people have no choice but to breathe polluted air. Sadly, the best way to avoid polluted air is to stay inside with closed windows and run filtered air conditioning which makes more air pollution.

It is not a political term. And in no way is it true that the consensus cannot be/should not be challenged. We need to keep searching for better and more complete explanations, and good scientists do exactly that. No, there is no science "consensus" on climate or any science issue, things are in flux all the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good Luck You can find plenty of pictures of pollution made in the USA. Not my job to be your Google image search. Also remember, Eco and others want to emulate India and China. It's like he is jealous of their terribly polluted air. Scrubbers do not fix everything despite your fantasies. There is a reason why even "modernized" coal power plants are being retrofitted to gas or closed down, as gas plants outperform the even the best coal plants. According to some here natural gas is essentially free so it should be a no-brainier to stop using coal. Natural gas won't stop CO2 but at least it cuts down on toxic emissions drastically.

Do you deny your own eyes? Read the data, the reduction in mortality results is due to the reduction in indoor solid fuels , not the reduction in PM2.5. It would seem that some other variable is involved, perhaps smoking, so the extreme elimination of PM2.5 has not resulted in mortality reduction. Strange how you continually fail to see that. Agenda based science always fails. Edited July 7 by Ecocharger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Supreme Court Overturns the Chevron Doctrine, Gutting Federal Environmental Protections Scrapping the legal precedent could send a "convulsive shock" to decades of federal environmental, financial, and health-care regulations The Supreme Court on Friday threw into question the future of climate and environmental regulation in the United States, scrapping a decades-old legal precedent that gave federal agencies leeway to interpret laws according to their expertise and scientific evidence. The impact of the decision to scrap the so-called Chevron deference will take years to become clear, but it could allow for far more legal challenges against regulations by agencies like the EPA and the Department of the Interior that have a huge role in the climate fight. https://www.sierraclub.org/sierra/supreme-court-overturns-chevron-doctrine-gutting-federal-environmental-protections Edited July 8 by Eyes Wide Open 1 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
