Use a unit of time based on universal constants, like seconds, an earth year is roughly 31.5Ms.

Better to leak that to segfault, take this:

Because passive language can be biased to.

Say someone speeds, ignores a red light and runs over a cyclist, which headline is more biased?

Fatal crash at xy intersection, collision between car and bicycle.

Irresponsible driver kills cyclist at xy intersection.

But anyways, animal farts come from preexisting carbon in the biosphere. Car farts come from extracting previously sequestered carbon. So without extractive processes, and with ethical land use/management, the atmospheric methane wouldn't have a significant impact.

Methane is 81x worse that CO2 over 20 Years, so if it came from atmospheric carbon it's only 80x as bad.

Wasn't that near the Israel-Lebanon border? Those are blue helmet soldiers coming from many nations to observe that the border is not crossed.
UNRWA is a civil organization largely staffed by Palestinians to provide necessities like food and schools to the Palestinians.

Let's not mix up the crimes Israel commits.

The correct solution is for tanks to drag a power cable and a water cooling loop behind them. This will make them invisible to thermals.

No, that can't be right, because half the comments here say it's due to racism.

Both those things are true, racists prevent it from becoming a state to prevent it from voting dem.

So if a Puerto Rican moves to a US state, they still can't vote, right?

They can't do this directly anymore, so they are just disenfranchised on Puerto Rico.
