How would you feel if those fossil fuel producers stopped extracting fossil methane and instead were producing methane from atmospheric CO2 and fossil free energy?

This is just fearmongering. Oh no the sneaky Chinese cars are mapping our potholes...
Y'all don't even know what tankies are anymore.
That makes a lot of sense. Katamari Damacy is also an excellent game with such a bizarre story. I'm guess I'm a fan of absurdity.
My favorite game in the series was Super Mario 3. I first played it on the SNES when it was part of the Super Mario All Stars cartridge. I really liked the levels, especially the variety of landscapes and the secrets you could find if you had the right powerup.
Super Mario World is just as good imo. Everything I liked about 3 and more, plus the star road levels, that was a good game.
The most recent game I loved was Yoshi's Wooly World on the WiiU. Excellent art style and super fun levels, especially the unlockable bonus levels.
Oh and let's not forget Legend of the Seven Stars. That was a fun and bizarre story.
That being said, does anyone else think the Mario universe is just fucking weird? How did the creators come up with Italian plumbers who can jump really high saving a Princess from an oversized turtle in a fantasy land with walking mushrooms? Who thought that was a good idea? What inspired them? I think the only reason it became popular was because Super Mario on the NES was one of the first decent games, and most players were kids who didn't care about the game's universe and narrative beyond saving the princess.
If Mario wasn't the first popular platformer in the 80s and was instead introduced today, nobody would take it seriously. Since we all grew up with Mario, it's a thing we accept as is. Of course high jumping Italian plumbers discovered the mushroom kingdom and rescued their princess from Bowser, again and again and again. Of course little dudes with mushroom heads are ruled by a blond haired human. Of course giant pipes are a normal mode of transit. Of course goombas and koopa troopas are the baddies.
Seriously, how did this universe come about?
I really don't understand why you're nitpicking someone who is trying to drastically reduce their impact. What would you recommend they do?
It's here for 50,000 years if we do nothing, but we're likely going to do something. 200 years. Generations one and two will set up the carbon free energy infrastructure, generations three and four will manage the return to acceptable CO2 levels and environmental restoration.
Edit: y'all need to lay off the defeatism. It's really pathetic to read.
So if they're not building new coal plants, what are they doing with the coal? Heating stoves or something?
"So they told me that, according to the most advanced theories and techniques in every field, based on extensive theoretical research and experimentation, through analysis and comparison of multiple proposals, they did find a way to preserve information for about one hundred million years. And they emphasized that this was the only method known to be practicable: carving words into stone"

I have a question about phevs. So gasoline goes bad after 3-6 months. If you're just running off of the battery and not using gas for months, do you need to remember to use up the gas before that happens? Does the car remind you?
