@DocMcStuffin fwiw, this is NOT news, why is it in the NEWS feed on the fediverse?
retired engineer, sailor, and farmer. Living in Puerto Rico and working on carbon dioxide removal projects. Sometime gamer, wild eyed liberal.

@ghostalmedia why is NEWS boosting this sort of content? It is a comment (no doubt profoundly wise) out of context and is just clogging up fediverse feeds.
@Knickknack I volunteer with openaircollective.cc - focused on carbon dioxide removal, speaking of emerging sectors. It is all volunteer, and a good way to follow the burgeoning climate change mitigation realm. I’m using a lot of what I learned over the years in business to develop a wiki there: https://openairforum.org Come by some time!
@Knickknack @realChem I graduated in chemical engineering back in '83 and found myself in wastewater treatment consulting. I gradually transitioned to industrial wastewater and then hazardous waste remediation. It was a good gig! Retired in 2001, so it has probably all changed quite a bit. Good luck to you!
@realChem I retired from being a chemical engineer in the environmental remediation of hazardous wastes and petroleum. Went sailboat cruising, and stopped along the way to teach high school chemistry four years. Now I volunteer with OpenAir Collective working on CO2 removal (from atmosphere, not point sources - later is called “capture” instead of “removal” for some reason). Without chemicals, nothing would exist!
@setsneedtofeed this is not news! This is ?? You are destroying your “brand” - who wants to subscribe to this?
