The Search for Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvents From Natural Materials.

4. Yes.

On both scores.

Belief in the "solar will save us" scheme is delusional. As I noted below, this morning, after the expenditures of trillion dollar quantities on solar energy schemes, we set a new record for dangerous fossil fuel waste concentrations in the atmosphere, over 412 ppm.

That may not be popular, but it is reality. I'm very much into reality.

The picture is indeed of Ms. Roosevelt, who I regard as the greatest Democrat ever, because of her concern for marginalized people, which she summarized, while working as the US UN ambassador, by pushing through the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Regrettably the declaration is honored more in breach than in practice, but like Thomas Jefferson's "All men are created equal" concept, of which he himself was a notable scoffer in practice, I believe, as Lincoln believed of Jefferson's statement, it is an ideal to which humanity should aspire.

Ms. Roosevelt, unlike Mr. Jefferson, lived her ideals. She was a freedom rider in Mississippi during the early 1960's, shortly before she died, an old woman at the time.

We will never see the like again.
