Wrong guess.
Harvesting this ice is not carbon neutral.
A ship filled with ice will burn more fuel compared to an empty ship. A refrigerated ship even more so.
An ice cube paid with petrodollars to travel a few thousand miles just for some asshole bragging rights, I mean, I can't even... Why is there a demand for this in the first place?
The gall of claiming this a low carbon business is perplexing. Low compared to what, exactly? If I make solar powered freezers in UAE and freeze distilled water, I'm pretty sure I would get the same results at a mere fraction of the total cost. But hey, no bragging rights.
Call Me Maybe / Carly Rae Jepsen
You took your time with the call
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all
But still, you're in my way
I beg and borrow and steal
~~Swear to Satan it's real~~ At first sight, and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it
But it's in my way
Yep. Knew it was wrong, but that's what I heard. TIL what the actual lyrics are.
When the world starts burning, these guys will be selling marshmallows on the side. Fuck everything about this, from the bottom of my heart.
BG3 player here. Can confirm (tested on rats).
Wow that's even scarier than what I had in mind. Good intentions all the way down.
The fucked up thing about humanity is that we invented our own destruction, put a shiny red button on top and wrote on it "do not touch". As if there would ever be a scenario where pressing it would make sense. And seeing the rethoric coming out of Russia these days, I can't help but wonder. Damn, I guess this is what my parents lived with at the height of the Cold War?
