I have a back bedroom with sealed windows, and it gets dry sometimes. It’s for a person with horrible allergies. This room is so clean you could eat off the floor so to speak. I run a humidifier set to 60% with distilled water for the person in there. When I checked on it last night to see if it needed to be filled, the...
If you’re referring to Carbon Monoxide detectors [I recognize the OP made an error calling them CO2] commonly referred to as “smoke/CO”, then, in the US at least, smoke and Carbon Monoxide detectors are usually combined units. I’ve never found one to be separated like that. A common example is below. Carbon Monoxide is similar, if not lighter than common air density, so putting one on the floor wouldn’t make any real difference.
How weird, I’ve never seen that configuration. Today I learned. I just wanted to add that in case anyone read that and thought their living space was unsafe with a combination detector. The EPA says, if they are CO specific, to put them about eye level from the floor, or on the ceiling.
This, I have to pay a small extra fee to my utility but in return they must buy 100% of the energy I use from wind. It’s not the most impactful arraignment, but it’s a small way I can encourage my utility to invest in wind.
Some have community solar too that you can “buy” panels and in return the energy they produce is deducted from your bill, minus a fee for them to host and maintain the equipment of course.

He won me being the most Climate Progressive president in history. I did not expect that at all when he was nominated or elected. Is everything a win? Of course not, but he's racked up more wins on climate than anyone else.
I mean, you picked a great source because that spells out why the administration made that agreement. Oil and gas doesn't want the land. It is not profitable for them to use and they already leased more than they'll ever need.
What you're talking about is politics. The headline says "OIL FIRST!" And it gives the conservatives something to take home to their voters. They can go say "yea, so Biden got the IRA with climate spending, but we got oil first pick baby!!!"
Meanwhile, it's nothing of substance and the emission reductions as a whole are far more impsctful. It makes no difference because the land leases aren't going to oil anyway, they don't want it. The article you link has multiple experts saying that....

My attempt at making The Crimson Light from Final Space (lemmy.world)
What's a new scientific concept or technological innovation that really makes you feel like we're living in the future?
What are ways Renters (of a house) can get into alternative energy?
Are there portable wind turbines and/or solar panels I can put up in my very bright dusty back yard?
