  • My likely candidates: Fossil fuels. Rising CO2 levels can lead to brain fog, right now indoor CO2 levels due to bad ventilation already lead to imaired cognivity. With rising atmospheric CO2 levels this will become more common. Nano particles, different materials are being used today with dimensions similar to those of asbestos particles, and it turns out they have the same effect. It’s not the asbestos, it’s how the body handles these particles. Think of stuff like mineral wool, carbon nanotubes, silica. Sitting. More and more people are sitting down (inside, so they also lack vitamin D) for long parts of the day, and it leads to all kinds of medical problems.





  • On this day in 2016 I was doing some digging in the back yard, according to the photo’s from my old phone (which turns out to have been a Windows phone). Overall, I was working at a different job, and in my last year of college for my engineering degree. Kids were 5 and 8 then, me and my wife were 40. Good times I guess.

    Now; different job, same wife and kids. No more digging because the garden is in maintenance only mode.



  • Over here there’s plenty who believe in climate change, but they think it’s neat that we now have the climate in the Netherlands that Paris used to have in the eighties. There’s also plenty who insist that the climate has always changed while ignoring that we see changes occuring thousands of times faster than before. And there’s a group who’ll say sure, but it’s not something we can change, so no use trying.
