There is a good description of the difference between CBD and THC here www.healthline.com/health/cbd-vs-thc.
Basically CBD has medical benefits without the high. Both THC and CBD have medical benefits, that are similar but there are one or two differences in the medical conditions that they affect.
CBD won't give you 'the munchies'.

Important take away if you wish to consume CBD products. CBD will show up in a drug test. There are specific drug tests that are sensitive to CBD, which may be worth investing in if you ever fail a drug test, as it might be some defense in law that you used a legal product; might be.

@sezu, my fault for not being more clear in my previous post.
I was not implying that your post at the top of the last page was detrimental. I was trying to say that the examples you gave within that post (specifically about website monetary matters), are one example of how posts can be detrimental (if they affect revenue streams); i.e. I was agreeing with you.
In fairness to Patrick and the team, I don't believe the "monetary-based existentialism" is their main driver.

I think the issues are related to a lack of mitigation to the environmental impacts of fracking. The licences were rushed through, by the govt. to avoid the new regulations about to be issued, by the govt.

The other industries mentioned are problematic, but there are regulations and controls in place. Even if not rigorously enforced.

I would think that building more cafes lakeside will do little to preserve the green areas.

Generally walking, playing on the grass is not permitted in most Chinese parks.

Don't worry about missing the ground breaking ceremony. Seen one, seen them all. Big platform with long red dressed table. Lots of flowers, lots of people in suits.
Long wait, photo calls, followed by even longer self congratulatory or self promoting speeches, the whole thing can take 3 or more hours. Then a few people go over to mound of earth sticking up out of a red carpet, pick up a shovel and 'break' the ground where a back hoe did the job earlier.

Then they light lots of fireworks and there is a band with drums and cymbals making a terrible racket.

The dignitaries then go off for lunch, and an army of workers pick up the litter.

A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.

Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.

In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.

They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.

They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
