I mean, any solution that changes how people move around (including building more lanes for cars or anything involving EVs) requires a large amount of investment.

But, yes, the solution for, "take more trains" is not a personal choice, in the US, as it is in much of Europe.

Not what I said, though I was incorrect in what I said, and, yes, that's one example.

But of the extinction events in Earth's history:

....evidently there's reason to think that increases or decreases in atmospheric
carbon levels played a role.

 DW>  Ad> But that's just carbon dioxide facts, 
 DW> No.  That's CO2 propaganda.

Anyway, clearly we have to stop. I tried to stick to straight facts rather than including my opinions, but that was still called propaganda.

Which means that it must inherently be a political topic, regardless of what
objective reality is.

So I'll leave it there. Have a pleasant day, and we'll move back to other
topics.

Like how Avon has been stealing all the daylight, and it's unfortunate. Ah well.
