   @skylar @icedquinn another solution might be to remove the requirement for ethanol in gasoline

   In higher concentrations, ethanol becomes a more potent pollutant, is less energy dense, increases the cost of animal feed, increases the cost of food (corn is a staple for many cultures) and would require less corn to be planted (no subsidies for corn for energy production would result in less corn being planted/grown).

     @skylar @icedquinn @FortyTwo ethanol is deleterious to all that stuff especially in older cars as they existed prior to its mass implementation and thus weren't engineered for it in mind. Ethanol is absolute gunk, bio diesel is infinitely better but the US doesn't touch diesel with a ten foot pole

     @FortyTwo @icedquinn it's also said to be bad for fuel hoses and gaskets and seals. plus it absorbs water from the air when pure gasoline doesn't.

     @icedquinn @kf01 @skylar diesel used to be cheaper than gas and congressional regulation ruined that

     @FortyTwo @kf01 @skylar the biggest problem is that nuclear power plants are a cover for making bombs.

     @kf01 @icedquinn @skylar both really good points

     As difficult as it is to make anything, it's even more difficult to make it simple and safe.

     @skylar @icedquinn @FortyTwo the truth is this and it's actually the two weaknesses of Nuclear Energy, the people saying that know that adopting widespread nuclear energy will not only solve environmental ills, but implicitly demand two things:
     
     A High Trust Society so the science behind the plants don't get Rosenberg'd or hijacked by terrorists and blow up
     
     A Highly Educated Population to maintain and expand the plants
     
     Now I'll let you figure out why some actors wouldn't want that.

     @kf01 @icedquinn @FortyTwo i like when they just come out and say that nuclear power can't solve the climate crisis because it only produces clean energy but doesn't dismantle systems of oppression or whatever

     @icedquinn @FortyTwo @skylar all actual solutions to environmental ills like Nuclear Power are smothered in the crib because Climate Change/Global Warming/etc Policy as a concept is about societal control, it's not about finding a solution. Talk to any Climate Change shill about nuclear power and you'll see how they'll try to squirm out of the subject or just repeat Chernobyl or Fukushima.

     @FortyTwo @kf01 @skylar you never see shit like north korea going "but we need power" and people sell them thorium (non-weaponizable radioactives.) it's always uranium, cause they want them sweet refined plutonium bombos.
