Weewf. Why you got to call me out like that? I was reading at a grade 10 level in grade 5. Now I just post stupid memes on the internet.

This, right here, is why I hated botany.

Me too. I’ve worked extensively on open pit mines, and I’ve never seen anything like that in my time there.

I’m not an expert or even an equipment operator, but I’ve seen them break shit. Buckets are tough. One that big is very tough.

I am an environmental consultant, too. You’re correct that they often re-route or change their designs based on habitat, though this isn’t always the case. They can determine if the impact is major, or if it can be reversed or off-set. An example would be a mine that goes through woodland caribou habitat. They’ll still mine the fuck out of it, but then they’ll be required to reclaim it back to what it was. The rub is that people think reclamation is a fast or sure thing, but it’s neither. Some ecosystems, like those that support caribou are really hard to re-establish, but operators can get on with a commitment to restore, and a couple of contingencies in case the reclamation doesn’t work.

@terranoid@lemmy.cafe yes, this is a thing in consulting, but often with the smaller, more cowboy firms. Bigger firms can push back a bit, and say ‘hey, look. we really don’t recommend this, here’s the risks’ or flat refuse service if they can take the hit.

@owsei@programming.dev yes, generally, consultants are hired to do things like rare plant surveys or wildlife sweeps. It’s not the EPA or other regulators doing this and the operators don’t have the capacity or expertise to do it themselves usually.

More than likely they do a survey to determine if the beetle is present. There is a whole thing about core and matrix habitat for species at risk, with matrix being less protected.

How would you describe it

Real wood anything is fucking expensive now

Sorry to hear your mom passed away. Thankfully mine is still with me.

That comeback is darker than a black lab in a cave.

I love a good mom roast. It’s almost a lost art these days, or at least it feels like that.

The only thing I’m annoyed about is the use of the semi colon

How do they identify a particular person though? I get you could see people as present or not or moving around the room, but it’s insane that they would be able to tell facial features etc.

I think most people would be happy with your luck with tomatoes

Wait…

While you aren’t wrong about them being good to use in Ag, the scenario where you can do both is more limited.

You can’t drive a combine harvester under panels, to harvest the crop you just protected for instance, unless you place and design your panels carefully. It’s ok for pasture in that sheep and the like can get in and chow down and it provides shade though.

For a parking lot, it’s easier, as shown, but also fuck cars, they’re their own environmental disaster

They are using them on closed tailings facilities (mining) to add additional land use or gain benefit where there wasn’t really a good land use to begin with.

I think urban settings are where panels will ultimately shine, as you can concentrate them without taking up other land uses - it’s just an add on and doesn’t detract from existing or future uses like using them in an ag field would.

Welcome, friend.

The meme communities are great.
