An older guy retired from mil aviation maintenance to take my family trans-ocean sailing. Recently airBnB’ing in Mexico with an eye to settle somewhere not too hot, not far from the beach.

“Humans can indeed move an asteroid.” By crashing into the asteroid at more than 4 miles per second!
I have long known that plastic “recycling” in less-developed countries meant bury or burn. Now it is becoming apparent that the same applies to developed countries too. Six percent actually recycled is worse than a joke, due recyclers’ contribution to micro plastic pollution. Waste-to-energy is the only way we’ll ever get a handle on the problem. Hopefully the dioxin-like byproducts will kill fewer of us than micro plastics themselves.
