I don’t believe that’s how aquifers work.
Probably for a very long time…we live in a very remote area…in the wilderness of Maine…our county has never allowed commercial development…the only things here are camps/cabins/homes.
Luckily I have well water…probably some of the cleanest water on Earth…I’ve tested it several times with kits.
MAPS is doing great work!
We have one rule at Beehaw -> be(e) nice. Your words are not nice here. Take a three day vacation from Beehaw to think about that. Thanks.
Thank you for all of this information. 15-30 minute warning is meaningless in a worst case scenario. A substantial CME could be the end of most people on Earth so reliant on the electrical/electronic infrastructure. It would spell absolute chaos upon the western world. Probably, the only people that could survive this are ones that truly live off the land in almost every respect.
As far as I understand this, a large enough CME could send society back into the stone age. It could wipe out all electronics (the entire electrical grid, all computers, etc). What are we looking at here with this report?
EDIT: Found a quote from an article:
Friday afternoon, forecasters from the SWPC put out an alert for a G2 “moderate” level geomagnetic storm for both Saturday and Sunday.
Our only rule here is to be(e) nice. Your name-calling is NOT nice. Please, remember this in the future when using Beehaw.
Also guilty.
Why would you feel this way…most of us were born into this world not knowing anything about climate change…I only learned about it in 2007…Scientists have known about this problem, at least, since the 1950s…It has been shown, many times over, that the primary responsibility (of no longer burning fossil fuels) falls onto a handful (or so) of very large corporations…Of course, they want the every day person to feel guilty and have been pushing green-washing propaganda for decades onto all of us…propaganda works in their favor to deflect the blame off of themselves and onto you and I.
Right now, China and India must get on board quickly in order for the future populations to subvert the worst case scenarios.
This doesn’t belong in World News.
I’m going to have to remove this post because the source, www.memri.org, is so horrible.
Your comment could be easily taken as antisemitic. Our only rule at Beehaw is to be(e) nice. Please, keep this in mind for the future. BTW, you are using that Psalm outside of its historical context and does not apply to modern religious Jews.
Please remember to be(e) nice…our only rule at Beehaw. Thanks.
This is a massive breakthrough that will benefit the entire planet. Great news!
No worries.
