The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I'd like to see a board here related primarily to discussions of environmental issues.

I have thought it through for many hours, tested many alternative names, and finally added a board titled "Earth Limits". This title is extremely interesting. It is broader than it first seems, yet fairly well-defined also (like drawing large circle having many subjects, but the circle still having a rather well defined border).

Just to take some examples, it can cover climate change, energy limits, commodity limits, ecological impacts, food shortage, forced migrations and even subjects such as nuclear exchange risk (useful heuristic: keep your own weapons near your own border; if your weapons are far away then you are almost invariably the aggressor, so move the weapons back towards your border).

If not much comes out of it after many months then I can delete the board, but it is worth trying. It could also be later sub-divided into more narrowly defined boards (I can categorise each subject and migrate them).
