Ed, how ignorant are you? Vegetarians don't eat fish.
 
>It is also painful to watch a fish taken out of water and left to die.
 
You really thought vegetarians ate fish, didn't you? You must live
under a rock.
 
>Vegan is the way to go if you care about life in the future.
 
There is truth to that but I'd find it very hard.

Do you seriously think he's going vegetarian? Let's ask him in a

Plenty of people that call themselves vegetarians do. No one used to
segregate pescetarians but times have changed and everyone want to
proper category.

A good enough fence to keep raccoons out? Are you serious? You can't
keep raccoons out.

I cut the grass on my lawns fairly frequently to keep the zebras at bay.
It seems to work:-)

thank you. There is no keeping raccoons out. As said, we don't
notice them unless there is a big fight going on between a couple
raccoons. Then it sounds like a bar room fight in an old western.

Raccoons are easy to keep out, a sturdy metal fence with a metal fence
over the top. It's also easy to keep raccoons, and other preditors,
out of a shelter used for cats, there are pass doors one can set for
entry or exit. Done correctly preditors will give up within a few
hours. of course cat security costs a few dollars, plus a little
labor, and the ones who truly don't care won't exert themselves, at
best all they'll supply is a friggin' basket under their schtinkin'
deck. Hahahahahahahahaha
Those cats got ripped apart because shit for brains is too lazy and
too uncaring.

It's very easy to keep raccoons out unless you're a very lazy cheap
bastard.

Raccoons can't only climb fences they can take the lids off of trash cans.

I'd not want to tangle with one. A couple of days ago my Ring doorbell
caught a fox walking down my front walk. They tend to avoid humans though.

Haven't watched it yet, but all I can say is...if Michael Moore was willing to stick out his neck like this (his fans just might attack him for it) I'd better darn watch it.
 
And here's the Guardian review:
 
https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/apr/22/planet-of-the-humans-review-environment-michael-moore-jeff-gibbs
 
While the movie may be scant on solutions, I would hope that at least one principle we can agree on is that shopping, as a rule, is bad for the environment, because even second-hand goods need to be transported. Just because one may be rich does not make it ethical to buy things that one hardly even wants. There's a good reason that the first rule is "reduce," not "recycle." The same goes for using gas or electricity when you could wear a sweater or engage in non-electrical entertainment.
 
Not to mention that children are supposed to be deeply wanted, not just lightly wanted, by both parents, so maybe people shouldn't have them until can live up to that standard AND raise them in a safe environment. Also, if you can't think of anyone who would happily raise them should you die (clearly a very important issue if you're thinking of becoming a single parent), you just may have to forfeit the glory.
 
To clarify the term "deeply wanted," here's something from blogger Sylvia D. Lucas that everyone who's considering having kids should read - even lesbian couples, IMO.
 
"He Says He Wants Kids – But Does He Mean, 'I want YOU to have kids'?"

The problem is that the fossil fuel people will have to realize that nuclear power is in their best interest too. Most people are afraid of the idea of a nuke plant churning out electricity in their backyard. If they looked at the numbers they might see that it's a heck of a safe way to generate megawatts. It is our best interest that this be implemented sooner than later.

Disposal is the biggest drawback. Maybe some day they will come up with
a process to neutralize it and change it into something useful.
 
Instead of tin foil hats maybe we can wear lead hats. If you want to be
fancy, gold works as well as lead for a barrier but is a tad more costly.

Mruce, you may legally sniff any polar bear's ass you encounter.
 
I encourage you to do that, especially if it is a female bear with
cubs.
 
Female bears with young cubs are especially receptive to whining
dutchmen, and usually give them a real big hug.
 
Take John Kunte with you, as he could experience great epiphanies
with the bears.

Holy Mackerel, BreadWoman! 5 pounds of rye? 50 pounds of white is
something I used to go through in one winter. Got room in the freezer
for the rye and white for this summer? I bet you'll use half of the
flour before it gets too hot. Do you have "Bernard Clayton's Complete
Book of Breads"? There are a couple, maybe 3,4 rye loaves in there
that I have tried and liked and a bunch more I haven't tried.
Good Luck (although with the extra flour it looks like you have
already lucked out) ;)
