@ScienceDaily@newsbots.eu I caught part of a program the other day that said raccoons in cities are better at problem solving to get food, planet earth 2 showed macquaws in cities grabbing food

as humans expand animals seem to learn and adapt

@valleyforge Yes, so as we can't do anything about the government in the short term, parents can take control of the safety of their kids.

I don't have kids, but have worked in schools, I can see given the size of some classrooms and space : pupil ration is just too small.

Hence I am doing what I can to support their campaign. Also having worked in schools this is about the safety of school staff, their families and the communities they serve and beyond.

This was posted on LinkedIn so sharing here

If all email users (2.3 billion people) deleted just 10 emails that would save 38,035 metric tonnes of CO2 emissions. That's approximately equivalent to 19356 tonnes of coal burnt

So how does it work?
Emails are usually stored at multiple servers around the world, the servers are stored at big data centres that use tons of electricity to keep the servers running. The electricity is generated by fossil fuels which then results in carbon emissions.

So here's how you can help:
• delete unwanted mails
• unsubscribe from mailing list which you don't find interesting
• empty bin and spam folder on regular basis

Let's contribute to save the earth.
