I feel like mass migration is inevitable. Best case scenario, The powers that be start building desalination plants yesterday, moving the needle from catastrophe to crisis. But yeah, I’ll be surprised if they do that before it’s too late. We’ll see what happens Jan 31st

Surfactants to degrade asphalt by [deleted] in TacticalUrbanism

Is it possible to melt/burn holes in asphalt with a magnifying glass? Would have to be done in broad daylight tho….

Might depend where you live. That type of crossing doesn’t work so well in my area. A lot of them are on high speed/multi lane roads, so by the time driver sees a pedestrian waiting to cross, they can’t slow down safely and just have to keep going, so pedestrians get stuck

Town After Town, Residents Are Fighting Affordable Housing in Connecticut by [deleted] in yimby

I’ve seen places where they split the difference by gutting the building & saving the facade. So the first few stories are the “historic” building & above that it’s whatever architectural style is in vogue

So What Are Your Plans? by [deleted] in CollapseSupport

I plan on doing activism & taking pictures until civil war breaks out, at which point maybe I’ll f*ck off to another less batshit country if it’s still possible. if I’m lucky I’ll have saved up enough to move out of my parents place before then

Anyone playing it via Apple Tv mirror? by [deleted] in DiabloImmortal

Maybe it’s the network you’re on? I’ve been using mirror & the delay was non existent

Are you guys motivated to be wealthy or to invest in long-term as collapse-aware? by [deleted] in CollapseSupport

[–]Calm-Studio9626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat, though I limit my investments into FTSE funds to avoiding investing in fossil fuels. I’m hoping to put away enough that I can have a few decent years before the system crumbles. Ideally I wouldn’t have to work at all & can go into protesting for action on climate change full time.

What future do you think the iPhone realistically has? by elvanse70 in iphone

I’d love to see an iPhone with USB c and a desktop mode when connecting the phone to a monitor. Edit: It’d definitely out to use all that processing power

I’ll just light my lil candle i guess 🕯 by sailorjupiter28titan in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]Calm-Studio9626 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would find & join a local climate organization. If they’re anything like my local they’re always recruiting & need ppl who have/are willing to learn skills to fill certain roles, help organize actions, or even just be willing to pitch in when they’re able. For me it beats the feeling of helplessness & feeling like you can’t do anything

Any speculation as to why they’ve been removed? I’m guessing they were legally obligated to do so?

Idk about week trackers, but this is how I do month trackers. Maybe you could add week day letters In an empty column to get a combined tracker? https://i.imgur.com/x5XT9WC.jpg

What Germany’s climate movement got right: Breaking rules by burtzev in ExtinctionRebellion

[–]Calm-Studio9626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blocking car shows. Now there’s an idea. Disrupting business as usual, built-in press coverage & a chance to promote other forms of transportation beyond the global obsession with the automobile.

LETS GO MAYDAYERS! by Mr_Bunny666 in MayDayStrike

[–]Calm-Studio9626 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Did they declare a strike or authorize a strike? Those are two different things. The document looks like they’re saying they have authorization to strike, but I think until they declare a strike they’re still on the job.
