An additional thing to consider is that not all greenhouse gases are created equal. You can find any number of articles to cite as source that methane is 20 to 30 times worse for the atmosphere in causing warming than carbon dioxide.

This seaweed does grow in the sea, obviously, however there isn't nearly enough of it in the sea to provide for the US (or worldwide, for that matter) cattle market.
Further, this particular seaweed is presently undomesticated – which means that of the various types of algal cultivation methods (rope culture, tumble culture, etc) no one has quite gotten down the best means of getting stable growth out of the strain. This is what we are working to do.
We aim to grow close to consumption.
Zuckerberg and facebook are just lobbying for government to take responsibility for the things that they, as civilians, and Facebook as a public corporation are responsible for – not screwing up so many people's lives that the aggregate turns into a societal problem. The intention here is to create legal precedent as a shield against future prosecution. If the government mandates that only it is powerful enough to stop these problems, then how could we have stopped them?!
This is when you sue, hard.
Heard of a guy named Bernie Sanders?
SEEKING WORK - Node.js distributed systems expert with lots of community involvement. NYC located. Remote and local are both great.
I'm Matt Walters. I've been coding in Node.js since, 2011, when I founded a company that went through TechStars (GoChime was sold to BounceExchange. Yay!). I also run meetup.com/nodejs and empirenode.org. Go #nodejs community!
Some stuff I've built:
- marketing platform for targeted campaigns based on intent expressed on twitter. distributed system including Twitter firehose ingestion, dashboards and analytics, and a micro-payments subsystem to pay individual campaign advertisers. - a high-tech touchscreen treadmill (100% Node on a real treadmill with a custom Ubuntu box slapped on it, back in 2012. I start talking at 10mins on the vid below link #4) - a solution to allow private companies to IPO without the help of an investment bank (cool tech! but, in reality the product failed because... CFOs are never fired for choosing Goldman Sachs!) - a high-frequency capable bond trading exchange (distributed system of 30+ services), built on Node and dropping to C when needed for performance. literally billions of $$$'s traded on it! (the microservices + CQRS + event sourcing architecture are aspects I brought to the company as a consultant, initially tasked with growing the team and building the platform architecture) - lots of open source libraries that made all of these and other systems work, link #2
My expertise in the last ten years has been mostly in eventually consistent systems. 'Microservices' has popped up as a work to describe what I've been doing since before Node was around. :)
Looking forward to hearing about opportunities to work together!

NYC. Open Source Loving Node.js Fanatic Engineer
We're building the world's first corporate bond trading platform written in Node.js. Why is that interesting? Turns out the corporate bond market is a 10 Trillion dollar market that still works like it did in 1978, with traders calling each other up on the phone. Modernization in equities never made it to the bond market, all the biggest players are calling for new solutions (http://bit.ly/1tLXFZq), and that's exactly what we're building. The incumbents in this space are big, slow moving enterprises with six to twelve month release cycles and a fear of Open Source software. We use cutting edge tools push out updates and new features within days and are releasing our own tools back to the community: https://github.com/electronifie, https://hakkalabs.co/articles/eventually-consistent-distribu...

Am I the only one that thinks it's ugly? Looks like a gen-1 iphone.
I do Jeet Kune Do at Anderson's Martial Arts in Manhattan. It's an amazing workout, teaches you how to defend yourself, is a huge boost to self confidence, and really is pretty fascinating once you learn the history of the art and the other arts that helped to create it. I've never been in better shape in my life.
As the reactors have now dumped thousands of tons of nuclear runoff water into the ocean which then drifts to the North American West Coast, is this not something we should be much more aware of and acting to protect against?
Is the US West Coast at danger of increased incidence rates of radiation related illness?
