Total is 20% higher than thought and may have implications for collapse of globally important north Atlantic ocean currents

    I was wondering how fast before someone blames Arabs for this. I will let you know if Greenland ice tastes any different.

    FYI: we Saudis aren’t rich but having zero income tax, free education, free healthcare and subsidized housing leaves us with disposable income to spend on imported ice :)

      I’m not blaming Arabs. Arabs have nothing to do with this. I’m blaming rich Saudis.

      FYI: we Saudis aren’t rich

      Now THAT’S rich!

        We aren’t :) Maybe you had us confused with Qataris or Emiratis?

        You can see for yourself:

          GDP is not a good way to measure a country’s wealth.

          Last I checked, they don’t have gold-coevered palaces in Luxembourg. Nor do they have any means of bulding a 105-mile-long city that will snake through the Saudi desert hosting 9 million people.

          Saudi Arabia is filthy rich with oil money and that’s a fact that everyone knows.

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.


Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.


RULES

1 - Remember the human

2 - Link posts should come from a reputable source

3 - All opinions are allowed but discussion must be in good faith.

4 - No low effort posts.
