Not OP, but a 2 second Google search turns up that it is in fact about 1 trillion. https://www.fmi.org/our-research/food-industry-facts
Generally? I don't think so. I think concrete gets used in heavy intersections, super busy streets, and some parts of highways/freeways, but not for all the branching streets. Smaller/less used roads and residential are generally pavement/asphalt. Though some HOAs like to use concrete for the longer expected lifespan and then don't budget for repairs so it turns to crap after a while. That said, I'm not a professional, I just live here. Not in an HOA, thankfully, but near one with terrible concrete roads.
There's an article here on how to utilize Wikipedia offline, and you can look under the "Where do I get the dumps?" section for links to downloads.
To add to this, the definition of microplastic is less than 5mm. So yes, 1mm microbeads are microplastics.
Not quite what you are asking for, but here is their public statement that they will not demonetize Nazi content.
Since you asked, the tax write off stuff is basically a myth. If you donate, let's say $20, then they have to mark down $20 of additional income, raising their tax burden by $20 x 21% (federal, plus whatever state tax there is). Then, when they hand over the money to the charity, they get to take a $20 deduction (not a credit) which means their tax burden is lowered by $20 x 21% (again plus any state tax). So comes out even in the end. The deduction basically says, hey, remember the $20 I put down as income? Don't tax me on that because I used it for a tax-exempt purpose. They report it as income, then report the donation. Nothing fishy there.
However, depending on how long they hold onto that money, it's possible to use the money to make other money, like investing it or even just sticking it in a savings account where it would get a little interest. And with enough donations, that might add up.
Yes, voting reform is extremely important. The problem is Trump's view of voting reform is to restrict who can vote. The dems idea of voting reform is to make voting easier, and at the local levels, push for ranked choice or approval voting making 3rd parties actually viable. Voting for Trump is pushing us further from good voting reform. Harris may not be platforming voting reform, but at least she's not going to interfere with state level reforms like Trump will.
I've ordered the ring because I have the watch, but I don't like wearing the watch at home. Sometimes I put it on at home, but instinctively I find myself taking it off within a few hours. I especially don't like wearing the watch while I sleep. However I have no problem wearing a ring all day. The form factor itself is more advantageous for me, because it's the difference between wearing it or not. When I leave the house, I have no problem putting my watch on and keeping it on. Same way I don't have a problem putting on shoes and keeping them on. But like the watch, I don't like wearing shoes at home.
Those aren't film, they're tape. Film is what's in the camera or shown through a projector and are visible to the naked eye. VHS, Betamax, and video2000 are magnetic tape formats that aren't viewable with the naked eye. Regardless, "on film" is still a universally acceptable term for "on the recorded video" no matter the format because terms stick around in industries
Yeah, that's fair. I think the main reasoning is that shooting something out of the air can cause it to crash on people or light stuff on fire. I also don't like the "stand your ground" and "castle doctrine" laws, so I think both shooting people and shooting drones should be illegal.
