Reply to Workers tasked with moving products in the U.S. food and beverage supply chain are at a high risk of severe injuries and fatalities — Grocery wholesalers and grocery retail stores saw the highest number of injuries, followed closely by the warehousing and storage groups by marketrent
I would have thought forklifts ans such lifters would have been automated by now or atleast remote controlled would have become more common place since the tech is very mature at thispoint

Reply to comment by Cyber_Dan in Scientists have figured out a way to engineer wood to trap carbon dioxide through a potentially scalable, energy-efficient process that also makes the material stronger for use in construction by giuliomagnifico
That's not as easy as it sounds.
Significance work is needed for even 1 tree to survive in a dense urban environment. You can't just stick them in the ground because they won't survive.

Why don't they release a law requiring output to be filtered? Would atleast reduce it somewhat with no great effort

Vitamin D deficiency is known to cause physical and psychological problems.
So naturally if you seek to fix that deficiency those problems go away.

Nah, they just end up on the ocean floor or in your blood stream.

Reply to Recyclable mobile phone batteries a step closer with rust-busting invention. Rather than disposing of batteries after two or three years, we could have recyclable batteries that last for up to nine years, by using high-frequency sound waves to remove rust that inhibits battery performance by Wagamaga
This is a bit misleading.
This doesn't apply to current batteries but rather some magical future battery which rusts. You can remove this rust with sound waves yet, removing the material would lesson its lifespan anyway, right? Since it doesn't undo the oxidisation process.

Reply to Researchers unveil the least costly carbon capture system to date - down to $39 per metric ton. by PNNL
Trees release carbon when they die and not every environment is suitable for trees. Trees can actually be detrimental to an environment which never hosted them beforehand causing a reduction in biodiversity.
Trees are not the answer.

Reply to Online interaction could be affecting the ability of young people to concentrate on everyday tasks. by unswsydney
It's likely not the interaction but rather the constant bombardment of notifications, prompts, incoming flow of information and the like.
You become I won't say addicted but use to, accustomed to high input of information which can cause discomfort when it is taken away.

Air pollution is bad. It kills millions and this has been known for decades yet here we are 50 years later and still the status quo has not changed.
