Media coverage of climate change#United States

In 1912, Popular Mechanics published an article on "The Effect of the Combustion of Coal on the Climate" that stated, "The furnaces of the world are now burning about 2,000,000,000 tons of coal a year. When this is burned, uniting with oxygen, it adds about 7,000,000,000 tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere yearly. This tends to make the air a more effective blanket for the earth and to raise its temperature. The effect may be considerable in a few centuries." The article took a positive view of the phenomenon, concluding that "even the dull foreigner, who burrows in the earth by the faint gleam of his miner's lamp, not only supports his family and helps to feed the consuming furnaces of modern industry, but by his toil in the dirt and darkness adds to the carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere so that men in generations to come shall enjoy milder breezes and live under sunnier skies." The former passage was reprinted later in that year in The Braidwood Dispatch and Mining Journal in Australia and The Rodney and Otamatea Times in New Zealand. ^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]}

enwiki is English Wikipedia, zhwiki is Chinese Wikipedia, eswiki is Spanish Wikipedia, dewiki is German Wikipedia, itwiki is Italian Wikipedia, frwiki is French Wikipedia, arwiki is Arabic Wikipedia, ruwiki is Russian Wikipedia, nlwiki is Dutch Wikipedia, svwiki is Swedish Wikipedia, but hrwiki is not at all the Croatian Wikipedia but Homestar Runner, an American Flash-animated surreal comedy web series. Is this inconsistency really necessary? —2d37 (talk) 12:11, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Apparently these are DBnames. —2d37 (talk) 08:54, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

"Onions release gases that quicken potato decay"^[9]: 2; "don’t store potatoes and onions together because the potatoes emit ethylene which will cause premature sprouting of the onions".^[10] More sources needed? —2d37 (talk) 11:20, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

"the bioavailability of vitamin B12 appears to be about three times higher in dairy products than in meat, fish, and poultry", "Because the body stores about 1 to 5 mg vitamin B12 (or about 1,000 to 2,000 times as much as the amount typically consumed in a day), the symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency can take several years to appear"^[11] —2d37 (talk) 08:52, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

An outdated version of the source is already in the article. —2d37 (talk) 09:08, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

I updated the article to reflect the latest version of the NIH factsheet in Special:Diff/1063626894. Another user had updated the citation already on 25 December 2021 (Special:Diff/1061936182) but didn't update the article text to match. —2d37 (talk) 02:01, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

The article currently cites Watanabe 2007 which disagrees with the (much newer) NIH factsheet about the bioavailability from milk. Now also there is Watanabe 2018; see whether Watanabe's position changed. —2d37 (talk) 03:51, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
