Boa posta, esta do Climate Resistance.

Simms would never let a good crises go unexploited. But there is no reason why the ‘kind of extreme events’ seen in Russia and Pakistan this summer could be entirely eliminated. The world could have easily produced a surplus of grain, and Pakistan’s civil infrastructure could have been developed, such that people could be at least protected from so much moving water. It’s what didn’t happen which cause these problems, not what nature threw at the world. It’s worth pointing out that problems of drought are fundamentally problems of relying on natural processes for sustenance – which the NEF want us to do more of. But increasing our dependence on natural processes necessarily means risking more to the whims and changes of nature, making us more vulnerable to what happened in Russia, not less. In the case of Pakistan, once again it has been shown that it is those who live ‘sustainable’, ‘low-impact’ lifestyles — advocated by the NEF — who are most vulnerable to nature. It’s poor people who live under those ‘ecological dominoes’, not the policy directors of self-regarding ‘think’ tanks.


Precisely ;)

    nenhuma barreira as aguentaria
    poderiam diminuir o problema

    não sei se ganhaste uma admiradora
    ou se a brasileirinha está numa de expansão colonial

    OT, mas parece que o Irão acaba de chamar P*ta à Carla Bruni. Mesmo dando de barato alguma evidência que eu desconheça que comprove esse fact(óide), de a senhora realmente professorar a profissão mais velha do mundo, gostaria de saber a opinião dos presentes comentadores mais moralistas sobre a mesma profissão o que pensam da senhora, da reacção do Irão, etc.

    Entenda-se que o Irão faz este insulto após uma carta aberta de Bruni a apelar à libertação de Sakineh Mohammadi Ahstiani, condenada à morte por adultério.

  2. deve gostar dele porque o raciocínio é similar
    lógico
    e baseado na lógica
    mas a ciência nem sempre é lógica
    uma preferida de HItler dizem los
    filmes amerikanders
    os cientistas provaram que a bumblebee não pode aerodinâmicamente voar
    e no entanto voa
    não sei se percebeste o clichet
    mas por o raciocínio estar bem organizado
    nada prova
    a inversa também pode ser verdade
