Yep. If a group felt pressured while living along the Nile they would have taken the available exit into the ME. The Black Sea and Bosphorus would have caused most of them to head east. Apparently they made it to Australia by 50,000 BCE.


Most major HSS populations in Europe and Asia , including everyone in China and rest of mainland Asia, received a large majority of their gene pool from a single relatively small group of people who appear to have migrated out of Africa less than 100,000 year ago, and who were already anatomically fully homo sapien when they left Africa.  

Most modern sub-Saharan HSS populations did not descend from that group.  Rather that group arose from within the already existent and considerably diversified HSS population in Africa at that time.

There is evidence that a different group, also of Homo sapiens, left Africa earlier and were responsible for the first Homo sapiens to reach Southern India, parts of Philippines, and Australia.  These earlier people left distinctive genes in the modern populations in these areas that are absent from populations in the rest of Euroasia population.

Modern HSS populations outside Africa also all exhibit evidence of having sparsely interbred with indignious archaic human populations that they encountered in Europe and Asia. So a small percentage of their gene pool are made up of genes that are not present at all in sub-Saharan African HSS populations.

Uhem. They are trying to shut down coal plants and other polluting industries, and have embraced carbon reduction targets and developed the largest renewable energy base in the world.

We are trying too keep coal live, weaken pollution standards, reject carbon reduction targets, and penalize renewable energy growth?

The Chinese invent everything, I am sure if you dug deep enough, we'd find their patent on the sun. Take that theists!

Used to be the Russians who claimed to invent everything.  Now they settle for owning the WLB!

The Potemkin Presidency.

The Potemkin village, for all its negative connotations, still bespeaks of some non-zero degree of  sophistication of the part of the prepetrator, and some minimal level of discernment on the part of those whom the village facade is intended to deceive.

A Potemkin presidency would at least erect a false facade of discernible decorum and propriety to hide what it has the wherewithal to know to be unpresentable.

This presidency, on the other hand, is one that rolls in mud and lathers itself in a frothy brew of excrements, and believes somehow the mere repetitive screaming of  “I am the greatest!” via twitter would suffice to make itself so.  A humiliatingly significant portion of the electorate is actually sufficiently rotten to believe that does indeed make it so.

It is a thoroughly rotten and decayed low grade demagoguery that fatally dovetailed with a  throughly rotten and decayed portion of the electorate.

For all the anger we direct at Putin, in the current episold it is Russia that showed the admirable traits of deep study of the conflicts in the society of its adversary, patience, planning, and ruthless calculation based on national interest. It is america that so indulge in fractionalizatiin that half of American population would rather embrace treason, overlook the total abandonment National interest and the total acceptance of foreign usurpation of American strategic outlook in order to gain legislative advantage over the other half.

You sure about that ?? Or are we using a new updated version of the Newspeak Dictionary?

From Wiki:

The People's Republic of China is the world’s largest coal extractor and has the third largest reserves after Russia and the United States. The Energy Watch Group predicted that the Chinese extraction will peak around 2015 in their 2007 report, and then revised that to 2020 in their March 2013 report. The EWG also predicts that the recent steep rise in extraction will be followed by a steep decline after 2020. Another study puts the peak at 2027. The US Energy Information Administration projects that China coal extraction will continue to rise until 2030
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Contrast that with this.... and then recall that the Orange Turdfuhrer thinks "coal" is the wave of the future!

Quote:China Is the New World Leader in Renewable Energy

Quote:China continues to be an unstoppable force in the realm of renewable energy. A new report released by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) delves deep into the country’s efforts to lead the world in laying an international foundation for renewable energy generation. The report states that in 2017, China’s total investment in clean-energy projects represented more than $44 billion in investment — a significant growth from 2016’s $32 billion.


Meanwhile, the WLB has his EPA scumbuckets dumping coal ash in the rivers!

Yes,  I am dead certain about that.  I do this for a living.

China is building very few coal power plants and approving no new ones.   In so far as much of their existing coal fired generation are of quite recent vintage (15 years or less) they will continue to burn coal for a while.   But the bulk of their coal plants, being new, are also substantially cleaner and more efficient than the typical coal plants in the US.  They are forcing the shut down of older coal plants at a much younger age (30 years) then is typical of the US (45-50 years)

In the meantime, their economy is still growing 6% a year, and most of the added energy needs are met with renewables.   They are beating the pants off of us in amount of renewable generation coming on line every year.

Just in case you think American intent has been more pure,  I suggest you take your cerebrum out of your ass.   Until the fracking revolution made natural gas $3/MMBTU and cut the legs out from under coal - that was 2013 - the American power industry was poised to build a huge batch of new coal plants to take advantage of powder river basin coal.   In fact, to add capacity in anticipation of the boom in new coal plant construction, GE spent $10 billion to buy the largest maker of coal fired power plants in Europe that year. If it hadn’t been for fracking cutting the legs out from under American coal, China would not have overtaken the US in total CO2 emissions.   And they have 4.5 times more people.

Even today, on a per capita basis, their emission is about 1/3 ours.  Your personal polluting ass is emitting three times more than the average Chinese.  

Yet they are forcibly shutting down profitable coal mines, giving the younger 1/3 of the coal mining labor force retraining for assuming a different career and forcing remaining coal burning plants to buy higher quality, lower polluting coal.   We are trying to protect coal jobs like that will be the wave of the 21st century.  They signed onto Paris accord.  We backed out.   They incentivize new renewbles across the board, while some states in the US are actually penalizing new renewables as being detrimental to the coal they wish to promote.
