- Comment on Dirty Lies About Clean Energy 1 week ago:
If historically unforested land is artificially forested, then that might be worth crediting to humans, but that has never happened on a meaningful scale, and realistically, I don’t know if it could. If deforested land grows back (at whatever rate), then that is just nature cleaning up the mess as it always has, and the amount of carbon dioxide sequestered on that land is always going to be less than what would have been sequestered had humans not slashed and burned the vegetation in the first place. The forest has to recapture the amount of carbon dioxide released by deforestation just to “catch up” before it can continue where it left off, so to speak.
- Comment on Dirty Lies About Clean Energy 1 week ago:
My understanding is that they want to measure the effect that humans are having on the climate, and so they measure all sources of humans’ emissions, but the amount of photosynthesis currently happening would happen even in the absence of human activity. Including photosynthesis in the accounting for humans’ emissions therefore doesn’t make sense, whereas accounting for deforestation is crucial, as that is a real change due to human activity; even if deforested land reforests itself, the initial emissions would not have occurred if not for humans’ actions.
- Comment on Fruit & Fruit Trees: A community for fruit growers, frugivores, and fruiterrarists 1 week ago:
Is a fruitarian someone who only eats fruit?
Yes.
Do these people exist?
Yes, though not many of them as far as I know.
Do they have normal bathrooms?
Most probably poop outside or in a bucket, at least if their situation allows.

- Comment on Indigenous land defenders face rising threats amid global push for critical minerals 2 weeks ago:
It’s pretty arbitrary. In the broader sense, the word refers to any native flora or fauna that evolved in that location, and so its use in the human context doesn’t make much sense. Basically, people use the term to mean any group of people who were living in a place before Europeans or other imperialists arrived. People commonly accept that humans did not originate in the Americas, but still the people whose ancestors were there before white people are called “indigenous” even though their ancestors also came from somewhere else. In Japan, it’s the Ainu who were there before the next group of people from the mainland arrived. And so on.

- Comment on IDEA to make this site standout why don't you make a live chatbox for people who have logged in? 3 weeks ago:
slrpnk.net already has its own XMPP chat where one’s Lemmy username (e.g. user@slrpnk.net) is one’s XMPP address, and I imagine that other instances could do something similar if they wanted. XMPP is federated, so it doesn’t require any Lemmy-side coding for the federation aspect. For instance-wide chat (visible to all users of the instance), an implementation in XMPP would probably be easier as well, perhaps using some form of the group chat functionality. What does your proposal offer that cannot be done using XMPP?
