Your daily reminder that agriculture accounts for 9% of US Emissions alone. Unsurprisingly, this gets worse abroad, where it becomes 18%.


Do you propose we not eat? Because agriculture is very different than meat.

Everyone turning vegetarian would actually help the environment quite a bit...

Though, really, just reducing how much beef we consume would be amazing enough.

If I were prime minister, these would be three policies I'd pursue.

  • Transition to nuclear power, since it is the most efficient form of environmentally friendly energy (sorry solar panels).
  • Enforcing worker rights, penalizing businesses who harass fathers into taking paternity leave to care for their family and making it illegal for unpaid overtime.
  • Bringing back religion, building a giant statue of the Lord Buddha in front of the national diet to protect the nation from disaster.

I don't think I would ever be able to enforce most of these, especially because Fukushima has given just about everyone a phobia for nuclear power, but they would be ideal.

I understand that nuclear power can be a good way to reduce fossil fuel usage, but is it really a good idea to build nuclear power plants in a place as seismologically unstable as Japan?

I'm pretty sure it's already been proven that it's a bad idea.

I’m beginning to think other dietary problems are the cause of my sickness, like sugar addiction and sleep deprivation.

I also overate last Monday that I was vomiting at night with an uncomfortably full stomach causing me to eat very little on Tuesday.


Sugar addiction and sleep deprivation can be two major factors and are often underestimated. The first can be fixed by putting your self on a 48-72 hour water/sea salt fast which will reset your bloodsugar system and bring you into ketosis. You will have terrible headache though. From there you can work your way out with low carb foods. Eggs, meat, vegetables etc. No sweets or noodles.

Sleep schledule fixing is harder.

Yeah, I’ll take some of that advice.

Vaccines…

I don’t like taking medicine either and try to keep away from it as much as possible if I can. Vaccines make me uncomfortable but it isn’t like I can refuse, we have to get vaccines here.
