International overseas shipping is actually pretty carbon efficient as transport goes.

Hell they're actually pretty down for efficiency improvements in shipping, to the point where people are just straight up talking about bringing back sails because... Well, why not? It's free energy.

It's not necessary but you compare this to crypto or deliberately inefficient vehicle design and it's just not something to get upset about.

If you look at their current sourcing it's fine. They're not cutting apart glaciers, they're gathering it from parts that have calved and will just melt apart regardless.

Greenland has a right to sell their natural resources as much as anyone else, and the sad thing is this admittedly ludicrous enterprise is more profitable for less environmental damage than most things.

Her dad owned 5% of the record company.

Don't get me wrong, that's an advantage most will never have, it's connections, it's expertise, it's starting ahead of the pack, and most of all to my mind, it's certainty that you won't be wasting your life by focusing on your art, but it's also just not accurate to pretend that's all she has going for her when she was richer than her parents after first album.

That explains how she got started and noticed, maintaining it is more difficult.

I don't know about you guys, but I don't really trust the word of the CIA on those things. Or anything, really.

Problem EXTRA solved, those jackasses were too lazy to hit the emergency brakes and they can answer to FSM for their crimes.
