"The safety features that work in racing are cages, seats, harnesses & helmets. Internal airbags haven't found their way into racing cars."
So what? Might it be racing cars and transport cars have different requirements?
Racing cars is historically where road car technology was tested. There's certainly a spectrum of safety requirements. If we label racing car safety as "safest", where on that spectrum are road going cars currently? It's certainly improved, but ultimately convenience wins out.
You don't need internal air bags if you have all that other stuff. Other safety features that work in racing include strapping the helmeted head to an attachment point, big neck pillows, and wearing fireproof clothing, but those measures were also deemed to be too inconvenient for daily use. Sure, internal air bags can cause harm in some situations, but they also can reduce injury when drivers eschew other safety equipment, like their seat belt.
Yeah, those are the tradeoffs we make as consumers. Ultimately, it's safest to avoid accidents... drive more defensively.

Elizabeth Holmes, if that's even her real name, is not a real person. She's an actress put in place by the Theranos board to front this ponzi scheme of a company.
You may want to study up on how to calculate the volume of a sphere first...
Why don't you just get to the point instead ?
By the way, just did the calculation again, and it's not feet, it's meters. About 3.5 meters pre-industrial, and about 5 meters right now. Calculation is pretty simple, and does not involve volumes of spheres, just the column of air above a certain surface area, which can be assumed flat for this purpose. The idea is not to get an exact value, just an intuitive sense of proportion.
Except gases take up volume (3 dimensions), not a plane (2 dimensions) or a line (1 dimension). So saying "3 or 4m thick" without also the 3rd dimension of altitude makes no sense regarding gases. Also, separating gases into layers also makes no sense since they mix within a given volume.

I'm afraid we're going to need more than a tweet.
Point of the tweet is climate change may be happening, and it may have nothing to do with CO2. And, the govt isn't particularly good at classifying things, like pollutants & drugs. Does the govt consider glyphosate a pollutant?
Not watching a video, get real. If you can't make your point in a few sentences, you don't know what you're talking about. We can observe the properties of co2, both atmospherically and in the lab, and conclude that a notable percentage increase will have a significant effect. Get the concept yet?
3 or 4 ft thick? At what altitude? Do you know how to calculate the volume of a sphere?
The concept postulating a slow-down of heat loss due to IR absorption by trace gases is totally UNPHYSICAL in the context of a free convective atmosphere. Its a mechanism contrived in 1901 by Nils Ekholm, a Swedish meteorologist and a friend of Arrhenius without any evidence!
Calling #CO2 a "pollutant" is worse than medieval ignorance. Its a "blasphemy" against Life itself! But this should not come as a surprise since our public life has increasingly been dominated by uninformed politicians with silly ideas like Ocasio-Cortez https://t.co/4OEPqHfF9X
In the Harvard "more push-ups = less heart disease" study, the group that could do 31-40 push-ups had a HIGHER rate of heart disease than the group that could do 21-30 push-ups, even though the 21-30 guys were older and heavier. Anyone still think this study is meaningful?
THE VAX ISSUE FOR ME IS SIMPLE: The issue is not the efficacy of vaccines but the vaccine obligation. Why are they mandatory when they have no undergone RCT or double blind testing like any other drug? Why "confuse" two subjects so differently? We dont because of profit. https://t.co/1AFfBlwI1V
45mg of sodium per 12 oz, even in salt form, is not enough to make anything taste salty. Canned vegetables have roughly 10 times the sodium.
Drink the Coke or Gatorade without the sugar. Apparently, the original Gatorade formula without the sugar was pretty vile.
Nevertheless, salt has a natural negative feedback loop with varying sensitivities between individuals.
Salt is an essential nutrient w/natural negative feedback loop. Coke's sodium content would be undrinkable w/o the sugar. Sugar, OTOH, has no negative feedback loop & also disrupts our other negative feedback loops.
Ultra-processed = deuterium bomb because we removed natures quality assurance program to deplted deuterium using chloroplasts and photosynthesis. https://t.co/oQOXmLgZzk

there was a Lotus back in the 80s that didn't pass DOT inspection because it came with a racing harness.

3 or 4 ft thick at standard pressure. Yes.

Yeah, I wasn't expecting you to... you seem to already be a know-it-all... other people may be interested though... "Ecology... Nature is only model we have that has survived climate change with sheer, total, utter neglect..."
