Although plastic particles in the air are increasingly coming into focus, knowledge about their distribution and effects is still limited. Chemical analyses from Leipzig now provide details from Germany for the first time: Around 4% of the particulate matter consists of plastic. Around two-thirds of this comes from tire abrasion.
working to get food is also good for my health so i’ll keep living in the urb for the foreseeable future
“Jobs only exist in big cities” because no one else outside of cities is able to make a living… all areas other than cities must therefore be uninhabited
For real though I seriously wonder.
Outside of the bigger cities I’ve lived it’s like, people are working fast food or gas stations and other service labor or like, really niche stuff like oil industry (yuck), or some other industrial or farming occupations.
I know lots of people live in rural areas, dunno how many commute or how far, and I always was just like “Okay but what does everybody do?!”
I wouldn’t mind living somewhere less dense-urban, but geeze, I feel like it’d be even harder to find a fit than in the city, and it feels like it’d be a trap where you couldn’t make enough to move away.
I’d love to be wrong, assuming we’re not talking about the top 10% of programmers that have a lucrative telecommute contract via starlink or some crap lol.
Like stuff an average person is capable of without requiring a ridiculous amount of luck or extremely niche in-demand education.
you know what happens when more people live together in one place and there are enough jobs for all the people living there? it becomes a city (it doesn’t need to be big, it only needs a lot of cars)
