Ripped from dukduckgo who inturn took it from ‘The American Heritage® Dictionary’
Obligate (Adjective): Able to exist or survive only in a particular environment or by assuming a particular role.
So an obligate carnivore is a being that can only survive in an environment where they are provided meat. The definition of obligate doesn’t state the the environment has to be naturally occurring, and I think that’s a semantic that isn’t discussed.
A great white is a obligate carnivore in naturally occurring environments same as a cat/hawk/lizard etc. But when humans take anything out of its naturally occurring environment (cause we’re smart cookies) we can keep it alive and healthy by giving it all the nutrients it needs, and said nutrients be derived from vegan sources.
I think that’s what they’re refering to as “no such thing” as an obligate carnivore. We can create non-natural environments where a carnivore no longer needs to be one.
I don’t get why people insist that their pets require meat. Go talk tuha a vet and get a vegan diet for your cat/dog/bird, people are so fuckin weird about some stuff.
I’m really upset that’s happend to you. I’d recommend contacting a news network not operated in Europe if you’re afraid of corruption/ repercussions.
Do you mean reducing gas usage? All people I’ve talked to want emissions reduced to benefit the environment, not reduce the influence of Russia / China.
(I’m not going to be using the correct terminology) There’s multiple types of heat pumps that operate by transferring the heat via the ground, air or water source. These are air and (closed) ground types
Whereas this is an (open) ground type
The environmental effect of closed types is during manufacturing and what the electricity is sourced from (solar, coal etc).
For fracking what happens is water is injected into the ground in an attempt to extract gas (very simplified explanation), the resulting water and gas can then make its way into local water sources which will effect the local population. An open heat pump system works by taking the water from ground water tables, using the water for heating / cooling and putting that water back into the ground, and due to the large size of these water sources, the average temperature doesn’t really change (lighting a fire outside doesn’t increase the temperature for your neighbour).
