That’s a YOU problem, WestJet. Pay your mechanics what they deserve, and treat them like people.

Heat pumps sounds like a good way forward. I haven’t looked into the cost to replace a heater in a home, but I guess new homes could just have them installed by default.
What about natural gas use in home cooking/restaurants? Surely, you can’t just replace that easily.
EDIT: And what about heating water? I mean, natural gas is used for more than heating the space in a home.
That’s great for climate goals, but can someone tell me how we’re supposed to heat our homes? Electricity?
Greece sounds like a hellhole.
Six-day work week. Get out of here.
Why do they continue to publish articles literally stating the same facts, word for word, from those old, published position statements?
The science hasn’t changed. In fact, it’s only supported plant-based diets over the years.
If you talk to a registered dietitian today, they will say the same thing. At least, that’s been my experience through working with several over the years.
Either way, it doesn’t particularly matter to me. I’ve been vegan for over two decades and my doctor is quite happy with my health.
They did not retract or change their position, though.
And they still publish information based on the same wording and conclusions they had when they did publish a position.
I’m not sure what’s so confusing about this. They did not change their position on plant-based diets, and I believe because it would be redundant to keep saying what the science has confirmed year after year.
Is there any position they continually confirm year after year? If so, I’d be really surprised, unless the science isn’t supporting their position, so they have to give their reasons for still having them.
The only article I linked was reviewed by their people just a few weeks ago, so it’s as current as you could expect.
It’s not that they no longer support the idea of a plant-based diet, it’s more likely that plant-based diets are so overwhelmingly supported by the evidence that they no longer have to keep saying it out loud.
Especially since their recent articles seem to echo what their position paper on vegetarian diets already said years ago. To them, it’s like common knowledge.
That said, they are one of dozens of dietetic and health authorities around the world who have made it clear that a plant-based diet can not only be appropriate for all life stages, but it can be used to reverse certain diseases (i.e heart disease and T2 diabetes) when other diets simply can’t compare.
Since when? This article, last reviewed this month, pretty much says the same thing as their last published position statement.
A.K.A. “being a new parent.” 😂
Except that new parents go through way more than five days of that. 😞
Maybe that’s why you don’t have problems with most of sites from Europe?!?
That’s an interesting observation. I’m not sure, since I’m in Canada.
I use FF as my primary browser on my desktop, laptop, and mobile devices.
As much as I love and support FF and the Mozilla Foundation, I find that some websites simply need a Chromium-based browser to function properly. It’s frustrating as hell.
I wonder how many people tried FF, had their favourite site stop working, and then switched back to Chrome.
As crazy as it seems that some people today take the bible as literal truth, it’s been revised, edited, and modified so often that you’d never know which version is “right”. LOL
Interesting.
I wonder if the same strategy can be applied to the industries just east of the Whitby Harbour, directly north of the waterfront trail. Because at some times of the day, one of those companies is either burning tires or releasing some other toxic shit into the air, which makes it impossible to use the trail without being poisoned in some way.
There are loads of other benefits that come along with eating plants, but regarding protein source:
“Conclusions Higher intake of total protein was associated with a lower risk of all cause mortality, and intake of plant protein was associated with a lower risk of all cause and cardiovascular disease mortality. Replacement of foods high in animal protein with plant protein sources could be associated with longevity.” SOURCE
“Conclusions and relevance: High animal protein intake was positively associated with cardiovascular mortality and high plant protein intake was inversely associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, especially among individuals with at least 1 lifestyle risk factor. Substitution of plant protein for animal protein, especially that from processed red meat, was associated with lower mortality, suggesting the importance of protein source.” SOURCE
Not really true. If you exclude those other factors, plant-based diets still come out on top. You should check out studies on the Seventh-Day Adventists like this one, as it’s fascinating stuff!
There are simply too many harmful compounds in animal flesh which aren’t compatible with health in humans.
But overall, plant-based is just better in every way: cost, land use, water use, climate change, health, longevity, chronic disease risk/prevention, food security, etc., etc., etc.
A diet promoting plant-based protein to help the environment now has a more human argument: It may lower your risk of dying from several major diseases.
We’ve known this for decades, and modern research is only strengthening this position.
The question is: what will it take for people to change their diet?
She had a past medical history of insomnia and irritable bowel syndrome and was currently being treated with vitamin D3, vitamin K, manganese and activated charcoal.
She was either self-treating, following the suggestions of an internet “doctor”, or taking medical advice from a chiropractor 😂
Note, irritable bowel syndrome isn’t the same as inflammatory bowel disease (I.e. Crohn’s). And IBD isn’t treated with pepto bismal, either. 💁♂️
We describe the case of a 44-year-old woman treated with bismuth subsalicylate for about 20 years, who developed abnormal behaviour and postural instability in two weeks.
What the actual hell???
For those who don’t know, “bismuth subsalicylate” is commonly sold as Pepto Bismol. The directions say to stop use if your problems persist for more than two days! Taking it for two decades is insane!
Not only social services. The Ford government also underspent during the pandemic, when doctors and nurses were begging for more resources.
Let’s not forget underspending on education, too.
You know where there’s a “spare no expense” attitude, though? When it comes to spending paying off his business partners buddies.
But it’s ok, guys. Let’s keep voting for a conservative premier, and we’ll just blame Trudeau for all the failings that come as a result. /s
I guess we know who else is in Dougie’s pocket book, eh?
