JWs have not come around here in ages, though we did get a phone call from them a couple years ago. I had sent them a letter a long time ago advising them that they are not welcome here and that if the come around again they would be charged with trespassing. They wanted to know if that letter was in effect. Yes it is, and thank goodness they have honoured it. I am still grateful to the person who told me that was the way to stop them. Ironically, it came from a born again "Christian" who was upset with them for their spreading the wrong words. On a slightly food related note.... the JHs are fairly active around here and they usually go to the corner coffee shop for coffee and conversation while they are out knocking on doors. One day I was in there shortly after. I was in line for for than 10 minutes because they were all ordering specialty coffees. Two guys with the group were directly ahead of me in line, so we are standing right in front of the display cases and under the menu. They chatting away all the time they are waiting. Then they get up to the counter and instead of ordering what he had had plenty of time to think about, said "What do you have?".

The batteries that power those EV's are however dependent on exotic minerals to function which exposes the dark side of green technology. The mere extraction of the exotic minerals cobalt and lithium used in the batteries of EV's present social challenges, human rights abuse challenges, and environmental challenges. Hazardous working conditions where the workers make such meager wages they live in abject poverty. Moreover, they are regularly exposed to out of control pollution and countless other environmental issues which cannot be ignored. The key minerals used in today's batteries are cobalt of which 60% is sourced from one country, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and lithium of which more than 50% is sourced from the Lithium Triangle in South America, which covers parts of Argentina, Bolivia and Chile. Today 20% of cobalt is mined by hand. Amnesty International has documented children and adults mining cobalt in narrow man-made tunnels, at risk of fatal accidents and serious lung disease. The cobalt mined by children and adults in horrendous conditions in the DRC in Africa is entering the supply chains of some of the world's biggest brands. The richest most powerful companies in the world are still making excuses for not investigating their supply chains. Even those that are investigating are failing to disclose the human rights risks and abuses they find. As demand for rechargeable batteries grows, companies have a responsibility to prove that they have ethical supply chains, a priority when implementing green policies, and are not profiting from the misery of miners working in terrible conditions like those in the DRC. The energy solutions of the future must not be built on human rights abuses. When a company has contributed to, or benefited from, child labor or adults working in hazardous conditions, it has a responsibility to remediate the harm suffered. This means working with other companies and the government to remove children from the worst forms of child labor and support their reintegration into school, as well as addressing health and psychological needs. One of today's biggest environmental problems caused by our endless hunger for the latest "smart" devices that are made from the chemicals manufactured out of deep earth minerals/fuels, is a growing mineral crisis, particularly the minerals needed to make the batteries that power these devices. There are additional environmental concerns related to those rare earth metals. In recent years, rare earth metals like lithium have been imported in greater quantities from China, which has been able to lower its prices enough to now monopolize the industry. One of the reasons China could sell lithium so cheaply is because it widely ignores environmental safeguards during the mining process. In the Bayan Obo region of China, for example, miners remove topsoil and extract the gold-flecked metals using acids that enter the groundwater, destroying nearby agricultural land. Even the normally tight-lipped Chinese government has admitted to rare earth mining abuses in some provinces. Battery production causes more environmental damage than carbon emissions alone. Consider dust, fumes, wastewater and other environmental impacts from cobalt mining in the DRC; water shortages and toxic spills from lithium mining in South America, which can alter ecosystems and hurt local communities; a heavily polluted river due to nickel mining in Russia; or air pollution in northeastern China. Most electric vehicles in use today are yet to reach the end of their cycle. The first all-electric car to be powered by lithium-ion batteries, the Tesla Roadster, made its market debut in 2008. This means the first generation of electric vehicle batteries have yet to reach the recycling stage. An estimated 11 million tons of spent lithium-ion batteries will flood our markets by 2025, without systems in place to handle them. Energy is more than just electricity from cobalt and lithium minerals used in batteries. Electricity alone, especially intermittent electricity from renewables, has not, and will not, run the economies in the world, as electricity alone is unable to support the energy demands of the military, airlines, cruise ships, supertankers, container shipping, medications, vaccines, and trucking infrastructures. The intermittent electricity from wind, solar, or batteries CANNOT supply the thousands of products from petroleum that are demanded by every transportation infrastructure, electricity generation, medications, cooling, heating, manufacturing, agriculture, and virtually all the products that are the basis of everyone's standard of living across the globe. As the world scrambles for more "clean" electrical energy, the environmental impact of locating and extracting all the lithium and/or cobalt required to enable and sustain the transformation could become a serious issue in its own right. The electrical energy solutions of the future must not be built on human rights abuses or on non-existent environmental regulations..." From "comments" "Brin Jenkins wrote: Disposal of green solutions is set to astound us, and sooner than we thought perhaps. One of my near neighbours fitted solar panels to her 100 year old Delabole slate roof, which is one of the World's very best slate. Our roof is in the same material and approaching 150 years, and its still very sound. The panel fitting disturbance had damaged the roof, and after 8 years leaks got too much. So it was all stripped, and re-slated in Brazilian slate, looks good, but not so good as original. The panel mounting rails have been refitted for the 8 year old photo panels, but since last October no one wants to refit the old panels and guarantee they will still work. Scaffolding is still in place at great expense, and continues as an on going eyesore. A quick calculation shows the free electricity has cost a new roof £7000. Extended scaffold hire some £2000. redundant rails despoiling her new roof, and probably scrapped her solar panels.

You > say I am an attention whore, well if I am such then I will gladly > trade you my symptoms for yours. You're describing the symptoms of celiac disease/gluten intolerance, which doctors are quite competent at diagnosing these days. It's actually very easy to diagnose BY A DOCTOR. Those who have tested negative for this still claim a "Gluten sensitivity" (not "intolerance"), but there are no degrees of celiac, just as you can't be "almost pregnant". I actually thought I may have it back in 1995, long before it became fashionable. I was scoped and snipped and scoped again and I didn't. I let it go. What I was rely denying was that it was my lifestyle at he time that included lots of drinking. Being celiac would have been a great excuse, though. Everybody I knew would have known about it within days and I could have been special rather than just an alcoholic. What you have instead is Mock Adult Onset Attention Deficit Disorder. Meaning, you're not getting the attention you require so you act out to bring attention to yourself. Even the doctors aren't giving you the attention you think you warrant because they know you're full of shit, too. So you resort to diagnosing yourself over the Internet by quacks who virtually agree with you and find like-minded people who, like you, also became gluten sensitive (not gluten intolerant, mind you) practically overnight. Just like when every little brat kid all the sudden had ADD back in the 90's. Have you met Julie Bove, yet? We already have a huge bag of bottomless mixed nuts to snack on and most of us are pretty tired of them by now. > with no knowledge and no understanding and have a firm belief that > fairies are real. In other words I would trade all my symptoms to be a > religious moron, you know just like you are. See? This is why you're downright dumb, gullible, and incredible. Calling yourself ChristKiller and then spouting off about how anybody who may not believe you is a "religious moron" (even after I just told you I wasn't). That makes you a fucking nutcase, and not ironically, a religious moron too. -sw |

This is where Premium is probably trying to trick us only because the "trending salt" these days is sea salt. People now spend more for sea salt and they feel superior. It's just a marketing ploy. All salt is sea salt, only difference is where it came from and how long ago it formed. Personally, I prefer the mined ancient sea salt, now just called salt. The ocean was much more pure when that salt formed in ancient and long gone oceans. :) |
