The point here is not that aluminum oxide “pollutes” on its own, it is that it “speeds up” the harmful reaction between ozone and any chlorine (like CFC) “pollutants” up there without being consumed, so it keeps acting over 30 years. It makes all the pollutants you mention “more effective” at depleting ozone.

Magnesium oxides can also serve as a catalyst for lots of reactions, but I’m not sure if it will have the same effect in this specific context, I’d guess it would.

That’s why I added the link to the wooden satallites, that also reduces the metal debris somewhat and reduces other effects like radio interference.

I was actually reviewing the O3 depletion process en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_monoxide and Cl only stops reacting with O3 when it ends up as ClO2, but that is rare, because ClO usually is too short-lived to react with another Cl into Cl2O, so it may be possible that a catalyst like Al2O3 could actually clean up Cl interfering with the ozone layer along with the effect of speeding up the nefarious reaction with O3 :D

heh, yea, the satellites are not just wood for sure, they goofed. But it’s less metals, which helps.

I was just worried about Kessler syndrome and just felt relaxed that their orbits were low enough to naturally decay and never become a permanent problem. What this research seems to show is that the aluminum oxide dust does not settle in days/weeks, but it is fine enough to stay there for decades :/

When emissions are in the trillions of tons, I wonder if it would even be measurable.

emission of what? There aren’t trillions of tons of Chlorine in the stratosphere (that’s what interferes with O3) being pumped into the atmosphere. Are you thinking of CO2?

I doubt anybody can give a confident answer today about the value of the effect that a kg of Al2O3 can have per ton of atmosphere at ozone layer height, because that would involve not just doing what they did in the paper, but also figuring out what “shape” the Al2O3 particles have to know what their adsorption surface would be, for e.g. zeolites this can be 16m2 per gram. e.g. sciencenews.org/…/earth-extraterrestrial-space-du… but maybe it can be simply extrapolated from analogous metallic meteorite dust samples :/

There was the scientific article and the abstract in the body of the post if you wanted to read it, wtf more do you want?

Why did you write that? What do you gain or anyone reading from that comment? Who are you performing for? Where is the audience? Are you bored and I’m your little punching bag? If you know, contribute and tell us if and why I am wrong and I will welcome it, if you don’t or it is not worth the effort, just stfu, nobody needs your shit snark.

he thought it would be smart to unveil sensitive information on the government of that consulate

I never heard of this, only the hygene problems. Do you have more info?

Hamas Wants Guarantees Ceasefire Will Actually Happen, While US Says Hamas Is Rejecting the Proposal (truthout.org)

Following the UN Security Council vote to approve a three-phase ceasefire in Gaza, U.S. officials and other international allies of Israel are cynically placing blame on Hamas for a stall in current ceasefire negotiations — even as Israel has insisted on indefinitely continuing its massacre in Gaza and Hamas has said its main...

Guys, this war is not going to end before the US election, stop pretending: bibi and his fascist buddies want to get trump into the presidency so they can do whatever they want. nbcnews.com/…/trump-israel-gaza-finish-problem-rc…

hamas thinks that more victims means more support for them and they are never going to surrender or hand over the hostages. wsj.com/…/gaza-chiefs-brutal-calculation-civilian…

PS: The disagreement in the negotiation is the ambiguity on the permanence of the cease fire: hamas wants guarantees that the war will not continue in the future. Biden is not in a position to give or force that guarantee if he loses. Israel does not want such a guarantee, because they think they can eventually exterminate hamas faster than the suffering of palestinians radicalizes new militants.

BREAKING NEWS: EU Commission announces preliminary tariffs up to 38% on Chinese EVs (www.euractiv.com)

The EU will impose additional tariffs of 17.4% to 38.1% on electric cars produced in China, the European Commission announced on Wednesday (12 June), as preliminary results from its anti-subsidy investigation confirmed prices are being distorted by Chinese state support....

Electric cars will not solve climate change, public transport even if it wasn’t fully electric could…but nobody seems to give a shit about that :/

Depends on income. With more income, I’d travel a lot and do things. With no income, I’d try to make some things, be online and read pirated books :)

This is so 2015…now it would be “Once elected, I will murder every single one of you” and they would reply with joy in unisson: “Hurrah, free lamb chops for everyone, you’re our saviour!!!”

A 34-year-old can’t become president, if that is not ageism in the first place, I don’t know what is. But fine, if you are lucid and nimble enough to survive and win a presidential campaign, I guess you’re good for 4 years of constant stress and travel. en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_presidents_of_the_Unit…

What was censored at 9:50? What is he saying about pivoting? Was it a joke?
