Ukraine Banter Thread

You’re eating a credit card’s worth of plastic every week, and it’s altering your gut makeup​

Plastic Particles can enter the body through seafood, sea salt, or drinking water. One study referenced in the review found people who drank the recommended 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day from plastic bottles takes in 90,000 plastic particles per year from this way alone. People who opt for tap water reduce their ingested amount to about 40,000 plastic particles.

Research exploring the number of micro-and nanoplastic particles in the gastrointestinal tract has shown its presence is changing the gut microbiome composition. The changes it’s making are linked to the emergence of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, or chronic liver disease.

A recent review suggests people consume about five grams of plastic particles per week — the equivalent of the weight of a credit card.

Another thing for EVs to improve on is heating and cooling the car. Get stuck in traffic on a hot or cold day and you are in trouble quickly.

Wow that's sure some ukraine banter in this ukraine banter thread here

In all seriousness, where even have we gone here? Is this just a catch-all political/random article posting thread now?

What's warranty on those battery's? Does Charger come with it? How much is it to wire/ call the electrician out to set up the charger at the house?
Big question is how much is it to replace the battery when it dies off? Where and who do you get to service? Where do you take dead battery to dispose off/ recycle as most landfills wont take.
The lithium required for the batteries has to be harvested through mining. Means all the trees/plants on top of the reserves has to be clear cut off the top.

Never hear anyone address the issues this rush to go EV will cause. More detrimental than harvesting the Fossil fuel and burning it. This whole Carbon footprint /GW / worlds gonna end in 5-10 years False Flag excuse to create a mythical doomsday crisis is hogwash and needs to be called out, examined, weighted etc.
All I see are the Al Gores and John Kerry's of the world flying around, making millions selling this scenario. Same way I see Pfizer/Moderna raking in billions off Jabs # fill in the blank.
Ain't a person on here , myself Especially, that values being a good steward of the environment, appreciates ways to make it better for current and future generations. But all I see is millions and millions of our tax dollars getting collected for these Climate accords here there everywhere. Knowing full well its us pumping money and lord only knows who is re-directing it on the other end / funneling it to outfits/companies fatting the wallets and bank accounts of a select few .
Time we all started following the money and quit just lumping it in these pork budgets without strings. The whole establishment up there is taking those paying taxes for a merry go round ride.

Ghost1 , not debating you, are boo booing the cleaner energy / hunting environmental more friendly , more efficient ways. I just think EV is gonna create a bigger mess 10 years down the road than its gonna solve. So many politician friends/ donors in private sector benefit off legislation that forces consumers hands. Establishment caters to self and lobbyist. Not common citizens. So you got to ask why, follow money and call em out/ hold accountable. I don't ever hear answers to the EV negative effects.
Haven't even got into the ground water debates of landfilling this stuff that gets disposed. Clean and sufficient water is a bigger/pressing issue going forward than burning fossil fuel /GW imo.

You raise valid questions... my opinions of EVs are they are really good for people who only commute short distances daily... probably around 100 miles (even though most are rated for twice that). If you commute further or want to drive on longer trips, the technology is not there for me yet. When they get the tech where you can drive 400 miles on a single charge and fully recharge in less than 30 min, I would consider one. I had a hybrid Prius back 10 yrs ago when I was commuting 160 miles a day to work and I averaged 50-52 mpg and that was great. Just not feasible for carring 4 people comfortably on a long trip or hauling any stuff so I had a Dodge Ram too. Nearly all golf courses have transitioned from gas powered golf carts to electric because of less maintenance and better performance

I love my hybrid company car just for the fact that I don't have to stop at a gas station every other day when I'm traveling for work.

Electric vehicles have a place in our society and that will only grow in the future.......But it isn't worth the fight the left is waging against the American people

 

[boobear]

Believe it or not the first vehicle we got my oldest daughter some years back was a Prius (Hybrid no plug in), different times and I'm sure technology has improved.... but, the reason we got rid of it and purchased something else, was the cost of replacing the battery pack. The cost was going to be basically the same value of the car and the worry of that failing, with no way of making repairs, was too great to risk. These are very fair points and issues that really need to be resolved before we jump both feet into the EV only world.

I have a Sonata . 600 miles for a tank. Battery is for life.

Electric isn’t the future though. It’s a stepping stone . Way too inefficient to completely replace gas powered cars . Not too mention the disastrous mining that has to be done to get the lithium and the intense pollution that causes . Who benefits from the “ electric is future “ narrative ? Electric car makers. It has a place alright but our society needs better options for the future .

When the value of the currency I use is devalued due to government and fed's reckless money printing, it effects me.

Should we all shut up while our wealth is being drained from us?

No.. Actually the rate of increase declined a little bit from 2020... your boy Donnie T still holds the record

This is for sure Russian propaganda, this guy is so wrong on just about everything...his Pentagon sources state "Putin is being patient and methodical", this is a bad take, and I seriously doubt anyone in the US Pentagon is saying this.....

Putin would never ever trot his army out on the world stage and watch it get manhandled and embarrassed because it directly reflects on him and his ego would not allow it. The Russian operation in Ukraine is not some grand scheme or military plan to get their ass kicked to rope a dope the enemy.....this is like the same people that kept saying Trump was playing some 4D chess when he was doing stupid stuff when in fact he was just doing stupid stuff.

This guy is just another Putin boot licker trying to polish the turd that is the Russian invasion of Ukraine...Russia can not win here, the longer this keeps going the harder it will be on Russia.

LOL... you are so confused mixing apples and oranges... actually the rate decreased a bunch from Trumps last year in 2020.. here let me clear some things up for you

BTW.. I'll even include a link since you didn't

U.S. National Debt by Year

The U.S. national debt was over $29 trillion in 2021. In 1930, it was just $16 billion. The biggest impacts have been defense spending, recessions, and the pandemic.

www.thebalance.com

If you need help with math... I'll assist... Trumps last year as POTUS, the National Debt rose over $5 trillion ... that is $5,000,000,000,000
Biden's first year... Less than $2 trillion
