3 wood…
Golf announcers have been calling ‘fairway woods’ ‘fairway metals’ for a while. But since most of them are largely made of carbon fiber these days, even that is misleading.
Isn’t wood a sort of carbon fiber composite? Can we go back to calling them woods again?

- Comment on Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn 5 months ago:
Much of the toll climate change takes — from rising seas to lost homes — can’t be undone
Wait, you’re telling me that cooling the planet won’t bring back destroyed homes? I don’t believe you.
Also, the article doesn’t say anything about “saving us”. It just says existing damage can’t be undone. e.g. it won’t unmelt glaciers that took centuries to form. Duh.
What’s the point of the article (based on the title) then? Should we just stop trying?
