We need to stop burning fossil fuels as soon as possible.
That's the only way to stop climate change.
Anyone saying different is bullshitting you.
This means that we will need to RESTRUCTURE SOCIETY.
BUSINESS AS USUAL IS NOT AN OPTION.
We need to find ways of living that don't damage the environment further, and which allow us to cope with the effects of climate change.
We need much deeper changes than just 'electric cars' and 'clean fuels'.

Texas police apologize for holding innocent Black family at gunpoint

have some craft sticks in the same colours as the DNA base molecules as in Blue, Red, Yellow. Green (well these colours seem to be used to represent them anyway). So if I put these together in pairs, how many pairs do I need to represent DNA.
IIRC there are something like 26 chromosomes, in DNA so I would assume I make up 26 pairs and then find a way to attach then all together,
This is just an idea at the moment as such a model is going to need some space so I may need to do this at the Library where there is more space.
Thanks for any help
I know the actual DNA molecule is far more complex than this but these models are just a representation.

What a smart solution..
