I hear some cities call the larger area as metro (Vancouver) and other cities call it greater (Toronto). Is there a functional difference? Generally speaking, is one more urbanized than the other?

Not only that but reddit isn't allowing you to make new accounts as of today, without having a Gmail account first.

OH and Gmail force logs you out after 5 minutes and forces you to phone verify.

In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group". These five acts were: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly.[1][2]

Honestly, at this point I think the IDF wants all Palestinians dead.

We can do better.

  1. end fossil fuels and invest in improving wind, solar, battery technology.

  2. do what Netherlands did and start changing urban planning so that we use transit (trams) and dense housing zoning reform.

  3. regulate companies to curb our culture of consumerist materialism. Right to repair laws, tax companies for producing excessive unnecessary products. (the 6 R's of sustainability)

a) Rethink : do I really need that

B) Refuse : refuse excessive materials given to you

C) Reduce : reduce your consumerism (clothing and laptop)

D) re-use : reuse items

E) repair : fix items, right to repair

F) recycle : recycle products
