We need to start using U.S. troops to make these food deliveries. These types of “mistakes” would stop immediately.

Our chance was during the primaries, and we fucking choked.
What are they gonna do vote for trump?
They might choose to sit it out, abstain. This election is not a sure thing for Biden, and the polls are pretty clear that Biden needs to stop supporting Israel like yesterday. Hilary had hubris in 2016, and so too does Biden seem to have hubris right now.
Getting called out for it was unintentional.
I’m not sure what percentage of workers could do their job from home if they were allowed to. It’s probably a small minority, though a quick glance of numbers from COVID would suggest 15-20%. I’ll use 15% for sake of argument but would welcome a more “confident” number if someone has it.
Reducing the number of miles is and important way to reduce impact. Additionally, even those who cannot work from home benefit from reduces congestion and reduces vehicle idling. Although idling has less impact on EVs (though they still have to run HVAC), ICE vehicles are still the majority of vehicles being sold today in most nations and will be in circulation for decades.
Not everyone can WFH, but it needs to be part of the strategy of reducing emissions from transportation. Not pushing WFH (for those who can) is leaving a lot on the table. This is not a replacement for EVs, rather in addition to.
My point is that if they were serious about protecting the environment, they would promote WFH (for those who can…not everyone can obviously) in addition to EVs. Instead, there seems to be a big push for return to office.
I went with a media center PC and haven’t looked back.
The resistance to allowing WFH really shows how bullshit the push for EVs “to help the environment” is.
I’m not anti-EV and do believe they are better than ICE. But even better than an EV-driven mile is a mile that isn’t driven at all.
I think they’re disgusting. Since they’re disgusting I don’t want their flesh in me.
Isn’t this the basis behind some religions’ prohibition against eating pigs? Basically that they are disgusting and disease-ridden.
I think “plant forward” is actually a reasonable term.
I think it’s important to make an honest assessment of what is, and what isn’t, under control of consumers. Reducing meat consumption is something that consumers actually can control, unlike say the massive environmental destruction caused by military.
Corporations and other entities doing bad stuff does not absolve us of our own responsibility.
I’d wager more than 25%
Hopefully employers will allow WFH for jobs that can be feasibly done remotely. This will also help reduce traffic for those who cannot WFH.
I feel like I’m back on Reddit
US is an accomplice, so of course they can’t admit to Israel violating international law.
