Question for my fellow academics:
How many concurrent projects is a comfortable number for you (i.e., allows you to work without feeling rushed)?
And what is the optimal number of meetings a day (i.e., that allows you to move things along, but also leaves you enough time for other things)?

Covid pointed to a severe lack of ventilators, some where made by people during the pandemic, what is the situation right now ?
I agree, many scientists have suggested we have gone past the 1.5 degree warming target already.

This is the least that a country taking emissions seriously and tackling them fairly would do:
Tax private jet flights fairly and phase out kerosene private jets

1 in 10 flights from UK airports are private jet flights, but they pay almost no tax.

Amazon is the devil and all, but I’m glad the devil was able to deliver a care package to my ailing parents. I sent them a bunch of supplies while they’re laid up with COVID. They live in rural PEI, and I don’t know how else I could get them the things they need.
:Like with everything else, we won't learn the lessons.
should be interesting, I wonder if people keep notes etc from modern bands, or if everything is just shared on social media, which will be lost in time over decades due to changes in technology.

If you don't vote, don't moan about the outcome when you had a chance to change it.
All votes count, even though it may not seem that way.

Following a conversation on here I am asking for some help to work out what products are produced from crude oil and how we can produce alternatives.
https://www.personaljournal.ca/paulsutton/products-from-crude-oil
I am throwing this out to the community to between us we can start to gather information and present this so we can make a better argument to reduce and eliminate our need for crude oil.
Granted some products are going to need some R&D to replace, but maybe that will inspire people to study STEM and undertake that research.
Ah OK thanks
