„Angry at the tech CEOs who have benefited from the scientific research that has enabled their technology empires, but have mounted no opposition to the cuts. People like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos are conspicuously silent. We should call them out,”

“A human lifetime is very limited in time and space, compared to the universe.” In a way, it is humbling, but it’s also a relief to know that there’s a larger structure of which we’re a part that is so grand. Our imperfections, our struggles, our travails, when you put them in perspective, they somehow don’t seem so traumatic.”

We’re all emotional animals. And when there’s a crisis—when there’s no time to study the situation for weeks—we have to decide **now**. We react through our understanding and experiences. So yes, that means we’re all idiots, vulnerable to corruption.

That’s why we created **scientific methods**: to overcome the unchangeable parts of our inner selves.

A person who can clearly see and admit they’re corrupted, selfish, and greedy? They can still create techniques to control themselves. When a person clearly sees that they **can’t change anything**, that’s the first step.

I think the most horrible things—what’s happened and what will happen—come from this sickness in our minds. **And it is unchangeable.**

Environment Scientist(Student), I like positivity news, fitness, Olympic lifting, Linux, Fediverse, art, music, books, science, universe, activism.
Science is not media. I try to avoid, and I am not interested in Media politics, Media religion, media marketing, media economics and trades of those medians.

@nprofile1q... Sorting rubbish is not the same as recycling. Separating waste at home or at work is only the first step in a much longer process. It helps prevent contamination and makes later treatment possible, but on its own it does not solve the waste problem.
Recycling is often presented as a simple solution, yet in practice it is complex and imperfect. Many materials cannot be recycled indefinitely, and some are difficult or expensive to process at all. After sorting, waste must be collected, transported, cleaned, shredded or melted, and then re-manufactured into new products — all of which require energy, water, and infrastructure.
Because of these limits, recycling should be seen as one part of a wider strategy rather than a complete answer. Reducing consumption, re-using products, designing goods to last longer, and avoiding unnecessary packaging are usually more effective ways of cutting environmental impact. Recycling remains valuable, but it works best when it comes after efforts to prevent waste in the first place.
