As a parent with small kids, sacrificing sleep to have a few quiet hours with no tiny supervisors is an easy choice. Sleep is a waste of time when I could be doing literally anything else. I'll change my time when I can't remember my own name, but for now it's a waste of time.

No way they are as drawn
The things would fall over forward unless they had the habit of eating stones to keep in their belly to counterbalance them

Reply to 8 out of 10 preterm babies suffer newborn jaundice. Therapy involves exposing the baby to blue light, however, there are no standard guidelines on the precise color of light, irradiation power and duration. Scientists suggest fluorescence measurement will improve jaundice testing and therapy. by Skoltech_
any chance that the wavelength and strength of light could be assumed from natural levels?
I admit to not reading the posted content.

I have to point out that if you have cattle grazing the land, said cattle will be collect as much carbon as they can into themselves instead of the topsoil, as well as that cattle, on the whole, are the number one producer of a different greenhouse gas that we really would like to reduce if possible.

Anybody else not like sleeping because they feel it is a waste of time?

Sadly true, and it's admitted in the title. We have emitted/are emitting gigatons of carbon, so sequestering megatons has only a marginal inpact.

> Season after season if they’re properly maintained they can regenerate inches of topsoil that stores gigatonnes of carbon across the planet.
Do you have a source that documents their carbon sequestration potential?

What Kradget said, but on top of that, we would do that using cattle grazing. Most of the land suitable to be grazed can't be farmed...which does not fit the common misinformation that cattle take up farmland that would otherwise be used for crops. It wouldn't. About 2/3 of all arable land can't be used for farming. Sequestering carbon in those soils would be a huge dent because thats a TON of land. idk the math, but there are soil scientists out there who think it's possible. Have fun going down that rabbit hole.

I wonder if it evolved to be able to peek over the sign.

Or does poor mental health contribute to bad sleep habits?

Always got between 7 and 7.5hrs of sleep until I had kids.
Rarely managed more than 5hrs in the 4 years since. I feel less healthy and just in all round worse shape both physically and mentally.
