    Myth: Solar energy is safe and harmless.

    Fact: If the sun explodes, it will kill all life on Earth.

      @FurryBeta @cwebber Feels pretty silly to be fighting over petroleum in these circumstances.

      @be @cwebber I look forward to the day that oil is only used for lubricants

        @darwinwoodka @cwebber true however, my intention was small scale i.e home to village level roughly 30 homes.
        Can anything other than biowaste, solar and hydro electricity be used?!

            Not downplaying just how awful those administrations fucked us over, but modern solar and batteries are generations of tech better than what we had back then. We didn't hit the "cheaper than gas" point until just the last few years.

            @JessTheUnstill @darwinwoodka @juliehuz @cwebber That was probably in considerable part because less effort was put into the matter than there otherwise would've been.

                  Myth: Don't let children play with radium, because it's bad for their health.

                  Fact: Sunlight also causes cancer, but parents still let their children play outside.

                    @cwebber this so much
                    I've been looking at this report that came out the other way, and the section 2.2.2 about batteries alone just makes me feel like the world isn't horribly broken for once

                      @wakame @cwebber Aren't they both facts?

                      I'm not sure if anyone has done the maths on the risk of solar exposure vs benefits, and comparison with alternatives that provide similar metabolism benefits.

                        Yes, but the whole format, while technically containing truths, it practically made to sell lies.

                        Myth: We don't put radium in toothpaste anymore, because it is radioactive.

                        Fact: Bananas are also radioactive, but you don't see warning labels on them.

                                          Myth: Solar energy is safe and harmless.

                                          Fact: If the sun explodes, it will kill all life on Earth.
