Let's supposed that Zeno's house is one mile from the park and that Zeno walks at one mile per hour.

What is Zeno's Dichotomy...

 twice as much greenhouse gases are sequestered in the boreal per acre than the tropical rainforests. And what we're doing is we're destroying this carbon sink, turning it into a carbon bomb. And we're replacing that with the largest industrial project in the history of the world,

 Let's forget about finger sections for a moment and look at the simplest case of having just two options per finger, up and down. This won't allow us to represent powers of ten, but it's perfect for the counting system that uses powers of two, otherwise known as binary.

Economics of climate...

 at speeds up to 224 miles per hour. Faster than some category five hurricanes. The atmosphere is so thick that it creates a surface pressure similar to what it would be about half a mile deep in the Earth's oceans.
