Climate Change - increasingly horrible disasters loom
...............
there is so much out there about this - I don't really need to provide a lot of sources - a quick google
I suppose your sarcasm is an indirect way of expressing your discomfort with the substance of our trajectory toward civilization collapse. It's a hard thing for people to come to terms with. They have their comfortable survival niche and like the idea of being in control of their destiny. The idea that some tsunami wave of change is going to throw their routines in the garbage
Projection isn't just a river in Egypt
And how specifically would you "encourage" folks to have fewer kids?
I imagine a situation in which the new children we bring into the world are raised by their local community and aren't considered the property of their parents. That way, people who don't have children of their own still get to participate in child rearing and bonding with young people.
I don't believe children are currently considered 'the property of their parents' in the West.
It's kind of mean spirited that you wish to imply that I want to sacrifice people. The most gut wrenching decisions a leader has to make involve the sacrifice of citizens. The mortality rate of the leading groups of infantrymen to land at Normandy was extremely high. Lincoln had to send hundreds of thousands of Northern soldiers to their death. These are not the kinds of things to joke about.
It's far less 'mean spirited' much of the stuff you've suggested so far. You're the New World Order guy, not me.
Look at these pictures of Lincoln before and after the Civil War. It's difficult to imagine what a burden it must have been for him to be the administrator of so much death in the course of the war. Sorry .... that's not the kind of job that I want.
The good news for civilization is that it's a job you'll never have even if you did want it.

I think the sarcasm is an indirect way of expressing the altogether correct opinion that you're a nut!
Why are there cave paintings of the largest animals those humans encountered but none of dinosaurs?

Someone(s) always have that job.
Today it's in the hands of people like Trump, Xi, Putin and Netanyahu along with a bunch of AI hungry tech execs who are sucking away your water supply.
If that's who you want deciding who will live or die, you're entitled to your preference.
That's actually an interesting meme.
For someone people, complaining is an end in itself.
I'm addicted to problem solving.
solve global warming goooo
Aspen Acres fire moving into Colorado top 10. Most noteworthy are the dates of these fires. All in the past 25 years. Hmmm ... I wonder what's changed ?
That's a good question and I don't have an answer for that. Encouraging at this point means asking for cooperation.
We seem to be doing a good job of that unintentionally at the moment.
What is your source for the claim that no cave paintings of dinosaurs have been discovered?
So, at what age do you believe a child should be allowed to fire his or her parents and hire new ones?
If a child is raised under the supervision of an entire village, then there is no need to fire parents.
If a child wants to leave a village, then there should be a process of appeal available to them and the opportunity for them to seek membership in another village.
I'm imagining a world in which people can choose to live in a community compatible with their preferences. So, a lot of people might prefer to live among fellow Christian's as an example. A child born into such a community might reject that standard and reasonably be allowed to go live according to their own cultural preferences.

I think you're just kicking the can down the road.
I'll rephrase the question:
At what age should a child be permitted to seek membership in another village? What if the village that the child wants to relocate to doesn't want the child? And if the child doesn't like his new village, can he reapply to his old village?
Thanks.
I just read the abstract, which nowhere says definitively that no dinosaur cave paintings have ever been found.
If it does explictly say that in the article somewhere, please cite the page number.
Thank you!
n.b. I am not claiming that any cave paintings of dinosaurs have been found anywhere.

The rock art “pterosaur” and “dinosaurs”
investigated here can now be added to the pleth-
ora of discredited lines of evidence for the coexis-
tence of humans with such animals. The Black
Dragon “pterosaur” is a composite of several
images, the Alton “pterosaurs” were wingless, and
the “dinosaurs” are a bird, a sheep, a giraffe, three
probable lizards, and a water spirit. As shown here,
when evaluating the meanings of ancient images it
is important to consider their archaeological, cul-
tural, and historical contexts as well as local natural
history.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The only other rock art “dinosaurs” that have
been alleged in hard-copy publications are the dis-
credited Kachina Bridge “sauropod” (Senter and
Cole, 2011); the petroglyph of a fire-breathing ani-
mal in Wupatki National Park, Arizona (Isaacs,
2010); and the alleged carving of a dinosaur fight-
ing a mammoth in Bernifal Cave, France (Cuozzo,
1998). The animal in the Wupatki National Park
petroglyph has a single horn, two dorsal humps,
and a forked tail. It resembles neither any known
dinosaur nor other southwestern rock art. This
raises the possibility that it is a twentieth-century
hoax or joke, although firsthand analysis would be
needed to test that hypothesis. The Bernifal Cave
item is unclear in the one published photograph of
it (Cuozzo, 1998), and firs thand examination will be
necessary for any firm conclusions to be drawn
As of this publication, therefore, the number of as-yet
unfalsified “dinosaur” and “pterosaur” rock art
images in hard-copy literature has dwindled from
twelve to two, and those two are problematic. This
should give pause to those who still entertain the
notion that ancient humans encountered dinosaurs
and pterosaurs
Even by the incredibly low standards I hold you to in terms of intellect and work ethic, it is absolutely ludicrous for you to ask for a citation then not bother to read it. Complete bad faith weaponization of asking for a source.

Huh??? How is it 'bad faith' to ask for a page number in a 14-page article? You are an absolutely ludicrous person (to borrow a phrase).
That said, I gotta admit, 'Complete bad faith weaponization of asking for a source' is an hysterically funny sentence!
Global warming is a people problem. They're stubbornly clinging to the status quo. They're too selfish and short-term in their thinking and fearful of change.
If I knew how to solve people, I could solve global warming.
I think i mentioned this before but the only way to solve the people aspect is global domination and I'm not even kidding. and with nukes thats not really possible anymore.
Humans aint gonna change dawg its just a dream

If you had even tried to read it you would have learned that’s it’s barely 7 pages of text if you get rid of the pictures acknowledgements and bibliography. It’s obviously bad faith because you asked not because you were interested but as a rhetorical strategy to fight to a draw because you did not expect anyone to bother providing one. Asking for citations of obscure but non controversial facts is bad faith….you know scientists know cave paintings could not show dinosaurs because humans didn’t discover dinosaurs until the 19th century. But because it’s such an uncontroversial fact citations will be hard to find; which is obviously why you asked. Not even reading is what removed any shred of doubt that maybe you were asking in good faith.

Your soul-read would have at least arguably not been ridiculous if I was disagreeing with the claim that no cave paintings of dinosaurs have ever been discovered.
