"The study estimates that anywhere from 900 million to 1.4 billion people worldwide could be exposed to elevated levels of at least one toxic metal, with 14% to 17% of global farmland potentially affected." https://t.co/1RPGhr2sPg

"the average annual radiation dose on Earth would have been about 10 milligrays during the first 10,000 years, falling to two milligrays after 100,000 years. .. 5.0 mGy yr−1 (mean dose) may be the threshold dose for double-strand break induction," https://t.co/63Dv2mGME4

"Gini Coefficient, where 0 represents perfect equality (everyone has the same wealth) and 1 perfect inequality (with one individual owning everything). United States has a Ggini coefficient of about 0.41, Norway one of 0.27, according to World Bank." https://t.co/PyGXMEGyn2

"A classical binary bit can only be in one state at a time: 0 or 1. Three bits→ 8 different states: 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110, and 111. A classical computer has to check them one at a time. A quantum computer could process all 8 states at once" https://t.co/iVF5vLoqnX

"About 25,000 asteroids more than 460 feet long—a size range that starts with midsize “city killers” and goes up in impact from there—are thought to exist close to Earth. Just under half of them have been found." https://t.co/ulOaDkJkpS

"A repeated analysis of the exoplanet’s atmosphere suggests an abundance of a molecule that on Earth has only one known source: living organisms such as marine algae." https://t.co/L1JQbPeOD1

Are you implying that all University Graduates (accountants, biologists, pharmacists, engineers, lawyers, medical doctors, mycologists, sports physiotherapists, historians, teachers, etc) are “leftist”, or just those from the University of Sydney?

@ShackelWill @DoctorKarl Dr Karl is paid by the tax payers of NSW it works at Sydney Uni apparently, that, should speak volumes about its leftism...

"Rising sea levels and extreme weather events increasingly threaten the submarine force’s infrastructure, which is mainly located in at-risk flood areas. Trump administration wipes all mention of climate change from federal agency websites." https://t.co/19xRHkQblU

"electric vehicles (EVs) are less prone to breaking down than internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles of the same age, which can suffer two and a half times as many breakdowns as electric cars" https://t.co/C0a1rBhIBu

(Measles was eradicated in the US by the year 2000. But now, due to anti-vaccination Disinformation, people are dying of measles.) https://t.co/76gsesutPQ

" "pour-over" coffee="hot water is poured over coffee grounds in a filter within a funnel-shaped cone"→percolate & drip into cup. The trick=pour the water from as high as possible without letting the jet of water break up upon impact with the grounds' https://t.co/bjIRTu5h5z

"Australia sends around 80% of our gas overseas. More than half of the gas we export doesn’t even earn royalties or resources rent tax→ the gas industry from trying to convince us for the past few years that a gas shortage is imminent." https://t.co/fAHWQPxDg7

“If you haven’t read hundreds of books, you are functionally illiterate, and you will be incompetent, because your personal experiences alone aren’t broad enough to sustain you.” https://t.co/bKteYd4t2l

"few, if any, of the 102 coal-fired units closed in the past four years are reliable candidates for a restart. Further, the plan to restart coal plants ignores the fact that most of the still-operating facilities are running far below their capacity." https://t.co/f23q1Ptjep

"RResearchers at Cornell University use sunlight and seawater→carbon-free, green hydrogen through solar-powered electrolysis of seawater. The innovative technology also generates potable water as a beneficial byproduct." https://t.co/V1FyPpl3DN

"While Europe has moved to hold social media giants accountable, U.S. efforts have almost completely faltered, with YouTube, X and other platforms curtailing misinformation teams and allowing conspiracy theories to run riot." https://t.co/WjBdDysdhS

"On Thursday, a new record for battery charging was set on Australia’s main grid – a peak of 1,327.5 megawatts (MW) at 11.05am, according to data from GPE NEMLog, easily beating the previous record of 1,067 MW set just after midday on April 2." https://t.co/L0lyNfoD55
