Challenges with making carbon emitting sustainable?24-12-2019 12:43
stevew87 ☆☆☆☆☆ (2)	What do you guys think are the main challenges and solutions in making our carbon emitting use sustainable? In a global context but also in regional areas such as the UK. France seem to be doing pretty well with the nuclear plants they currently have, although I've heard they use coal i think over winter months when energy demand increases. UK i think is still relying on gas a lot. Another challenge i guess would be making transport electric.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT DUDE! i mean, that was a Knowledge question and this bruh kinda nailed that yeaaa!!! whadda lamarr say at 6 points on the break, to, to, to the coach bruh. i'm gonna go for it! No. why don't you just sit out the rest of this? No. it comes down to this, and you're out forever? No. you're the coach, and this is yours. YES.

The current energy markets show that it is. stevew87 wrote: In a global context but also in regional areas such as the UK. Since you are in the UK, you are not used to free markets. They are there, though. stevew87 wrote: France seem to be doing pretty well with the nuclear plants they currently have, although I've heard they use coal i think over winter months when energy demand increases. They do, just like Germany and just like the UK. stevew87 wrote: UK i think is still relying on gas a lot. It is. stevew87 wrote: Another challenge i guess would be making transport electric. Electric is not an energy source. Those electric vehicles need to be charged from something. That recharging time will always be considerable. I consider them coal powered cars. You are just using the local power station instead of the local gas station. The Parrot Killer Debunked in my sig. - tmiddles Google keeps track of paranoid talk and i'm not on their list.

CO2 might not be a problem. The story observed – accurately – that there had been a gradual decrease in global average temperatures from about 1940, now believed to be a consequence of soot and aerosols that offered a partial shield to the earth as well as the gradual retreat of an abnormally warm interlude. Some climatologists predicted the trend would continue, inching the earth toward the colder averages of the "Little Ice Age" from the 16th to 19th centuries. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-the-global-cooling-story-came-to-be/ They had 40 years of science then. And then in the late 1970's the ozone layer became depleted and then global warming started. If you notice, stratospheric depletion started at the end of the 1970's http://www.cabrillo.edu/~rnolthenius/climate/KeyEvidence/globalO3.jpg And warming started at the same time; https://binged.it/34YV8AC The best part is, the warming from before 1945 and the rate at which it warmed does not fit the pattern after 1978 while ozone depletion does. CO2 levels are 3 times as much after 1978. And the increase in CO2 levels between 1945 to 1978 produced global cooling because of ash from burning things and aerosols. This is basically a circular argument because no scientist will let air with extra CO2 in it be warmed by the Sun. That would be the only real proof. Also, O2 removes heat from the atmosphere because of convection. Less O2, more water vapor. https://phys.org/news/2015-06-variations-atmospheric-oxygen-earth-climate.html This last bit is about deforestation decreasing the amount of O2 in the atmosphere. Of course, burning things that release CO2 is also decreasing the amount of O2. But we have to focus on 1 thing and ignore everything else. Edited on 26-12-2019 00:31

It is funny that you and itn don't think that people are responsible for learning what they want to know. That's called free will. Saying someone else didn't take the time to teach them what they want to know is the basis of communism. The government or agents of change like you and itn will be responsible for teaching people how to think in the right way. After all, if the current government failed them, you can lead them in the right way. People just need to understand why the two of you are right and that you are helping them to understand a better way, the right way to think. The basis of communism.

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5197)	Could have sworn that ozone depletion was debunked back in the 70's, and there was no ice age threat. It was an early version of climate change BS. I'm guessing, that they hadn't expected swift global compliance with their silly demands, didn't get to milk the grant money as long as they would have hoped, so they created global warming. They left it more questionable, and ambiguous, so people would argue and debate for decades, while the harvested the research cash. Church donations started to decline, afte Al Gore's prophecy constantly failed to materialize, as predicted, by 'settle-science', so the re-branded, to climate change. The new target dates were just past the life expectancy of most of the people who rejected global warming, and every weather event can be considered a sign of the apocalypse.

James___ wrote:It's funny how people think that when you and itn explain how irrational science is, some people actually believe you. Is that because you believe me and you found it funny? By the way, science is, by definition, a rational basis for beliefs, not an irrational basis. Global Warming is an example of an irrational basis, due to it's inherent unfalsifiability. James___ wrote: It is funny that you and itn don't think that people are responsible for learning what they want to know. I don't want to speak for Into the Night but my perception is that most people on the political left simply aren't responsible, period. James___ wrote: That's called free will. Yeah, on this matter you really don't want to lump Into the Night and me together. He'll grant you your concept of "free will." I will not. If you'd like to roll up your sleeves and debate the point, I'm ready to go. Drink in hand, check. Rammstein cued up, check. Bring it on, baby! James___ wrote: Saying someone else didn't take the time to teach them what they want to know is the basis of communism. That's not the definnition of communism. I was thinking more along the lines of it being the reason you cling to this silly notion of ozone depletion. There is no amount of sanity that can penetrate your stupor on this issue and get you to accept physics. There is no ozone depletion anywhere on the planet. There never was, there isn't any at present, and as long as the sun keeps doing its solar thing, there won't be any in our future. Unfortunately you have so much of your ego, your identity and your personal self worth invested in a belief of some other reality that this topic can no longer effectively be discussed with you. The least you could do is explain what you believe are these sinister magickal ozone-depleting "chemicals" and how we are supposed to presume that they deplete the ozone so we can at least follow along when you post. James___ wrote: The government or agents of change like you and itn will be responsible for teaching people how to think in the right way. The right way to think is called the scientific method and yes, I want that job. Where do I apply. I'm expensive, but I'm worth it.
