Extracting tar from these sands amounts to cleaning them. So, this is not polluting : it is cleaning !
…please change my mind because I am obviously completely wrong here 😋 ( I should also read the article )

P.S. : Article say it creates bad air pollution … honestly, I was expecting severe water contamination lasting for decades …

P.S.2 : Original paper :
in the journal Science

P.S.3 : Such a rabbit hole ! Reading the science paper what I understand is they sample air while flying a plane through the area downwind. Then, they heat this air sample to burn all those hydrocarbons and finally what they analyze is the carbon dioxide combustion product which is one PPM above the normal air concentration or 400 PPM so they measure 401 PPM and on top of this maybe they did this while in Canada there was those huge forest fire that change the air to orange smoke for many months … Well, I don’t know if this is good science or not but I have doubts.

A_A OP , 7 months ago to world in An unprecedented flu strain is attacking hundreds of animal species. Humans could be next

Sorry the article I posted is already 2 weeks old but I didn’t see other remaining post here on lemmy about this. Also, it says this virus affects domesticated animal but doesn’t say if dogs are affected yet. Well, I didn’t read the whole thing : it was too long for me.

Wow, such a detailed analysis. So I understand that there will be no quick fix of that sort in the case of Trump.
Thanks for your time, take care.

Darn, okay. So, I’ll just have to hope for another type of volcano eruption to help mitigate climate change.

Not expected to stop global warming, unfortunately. …and not expected to cause massive air traffic change like in 2010.

A_A , 7 months ago (edited 7 months ago) to technology in New UEFI vulnerabilities send firmware devs industry wide scrambling

Short for Unified Extensible Firmware Interface, UEFI is the low-level and complex chain of firmware responsible for booting up virtually every modern computer.
The flaws reside in functions related to IPv6, the successor to the IPv4 Internet Protocol network address system. They can be exploited in what’s known as the PXE, or Preboot Execution Environment, when it’s configured to use IPv6.

and : en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFI

… UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) replaces the BIOS (Basic Input Output Software) which was present in the boot ROM (Read Only Memory) of all personal computers …
