Kirkieb wrote: Solidified carbon? Do you mean elemental carbon, C? Or perhaps you mean carbon dioxide, CO2 Or maybe calcium carbonate CaCO3 as found in limestone. Some other compound? When you read or hear in the mass media (or anywhere else) of carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning, the compound carbon dioxide is being referred to, not elemental carbon. Anyway, elemental carbon is a solid at temperatures below 3000 C. Diamonds are a form of elemental carbon. So is graphite. Buckyballs and graphene and carbon fibers too. Charcoal is mostly "amorphous" carbon and has many uses. And of course elemental carbon makes an excellent solid fuel. Solid carbon dioxide? That is usually called "dry ice." Turns to gas at about minus 75 degrees C (at atmospheric pressure.) Question: What is your knowledge of chemistry? Many of the answers to your questions in this and other threads would have been touched on in a high-school chemistry course. Or are easily looked up online. |

Life. It is all based on the stuff. The more CO2 there is around the more plants grow. I cannot see any real bad thing about having more of it in the air. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-36130346 Science & Environment Edited on 16-09-2018 20:01 |

Ok so CO2 is the stuff we are talking about. Why cant we capture the stuff and make diamonds No that wont work the rich people wont like that. From the forum so far I get the feeling most don't oppose the CO2 from Coal power. If so why are we calling for all to be closed. Maybe its just the Muppet Governments like Australia's that has a shock reaction as to how bad it is and we have our heads in the sand. |

Thanks James was an interesting read. The more I read the more I think we should be focusing at Geosphere Level. Some of the Air Extraction devices maybe the short term band aid solution but we need a massive global effort and lets face it we cant even agree on politics how will we ever resolve Greenhouse Emissions? Living in Asia I see every day pollution on a scale the west just don't understand. China, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan and many more are spewing out air pollution you can see visually its that bad. |

Kirkieb wrote: This thread and others are a good example of why I think that the media and politicians and activists (of any persuasion) using phrases like "carbon emissions" or "carbon pollution" when referring to carbon dioxide are doing a disservice. Not everybody remembers stuff they might have learned about forty years ago, can't be expected to. If one asks about removing carbon from the exhaust stream from an electric powerplant are they referring to the soot (mostly solid carbon) or carbon dioxide or something else? Soot is filtered out of modern powerplants (they have something called a "baghouse"). Air quality regulations require it in most of the US. Has not always been the case though. Carbon dioxide could be absorbed and the stuff pumped underground. The process has been demonstrated. It isn't cheap though. Would add significantly to the cost of electricity if implemented. No regulations require it, so no implementation. Regarding "saying nothing has changed," the basic understanding of combustion has not changed since about the year 1800. Oxygen had been discovered and had been found to a necessary part of combustion, it had been found that the total of mass of the combustion products a fuel like coal is more than the mass of the fuel itself. The phlogistion theory of combustion was discarded. Lots of details have been added since then, but the basics remain. "If your so brilliant why haven't you solved the problem?" I don't have an answer for that. |

Uses for solid carbon: perhaps the use with the largest potential (in terms of gigaton) is carbon fiber, or alternatively plastic. carbon fiber reinforcing resin or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene could be used as structural materials for buildings or transport vehicles (cars, trucks, planes). IF you could substitute cement and steel in buildings and transport with carbon-based materials, you could have about 3 Gt/annum of market potential. For the climate skeptics: Climate change is very real and caused by increased CO2 concentration in the atmosphere due to burning of fossil fuels. Pre-industrial rev. CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere were roughly 280 parts per million (ppm). The current level is about 410ppm. While a miniscule amount compared to the major gases in the atmosphere (N2, O2, H2O), CO2 absorbs infrared radiation from the sun in a spectrum that the other gases do not. This increases the solar radiation held onto by the Earth system, thus increasing global mean temperatures. The reason this is a problem is because since humankind invented agriculture (roughly 10,000 yrs ago) the climate system has been extremely stable, allowing us to build civilizations along dependable sources of water in temperate zones with predictable growing periods and yields. As the climate system shifts to a new equilibrium, these dependable systems will be disrupted, which will in turn destabilize civilization, forcing mass migrations caused by local food and water shortages. |

Thermometers with the precision to measure temperature to a usable level, for the 1 degree Celsius per century estimate rise, weren't available for a couple hundred years later. CO2 was monitored until 1958, hardly on a global scale, on the side of an active volcano to boot, Mauna Loa. Basically, global warming was declared, before measurements and data to support it even existed, everything is based on proxies, analogs, and computer simulations. It's science fiction, and a video game. Uses for carbon... How about a live solution? All life on this planet is based on carbon molecules. That carbon comes exclusively from CO2. Nothing digests or metabolizes solid carbon. Plants are the only living thing that pulls CO2 from the atmosphere, everything else gets carbon from the plants, one way or another. Look up CO2 augmentation for greenhouses, to see the real life effect of CO2 on plant growth and development. No need to take my word for it, a common practice for decades. Your 410 ppm is about 20% of the ideal CO2 level. Oddly enough, adding 1000 ppm to a greenhouse, doesn't raise the temperature either, no cooling required... |

Look, the chemistry and physics behind climate change are so fundamental you could teach them in a high school chemistry class. I'm not going to debate this. We know CO2 levels before humans were measuring them in real time because we can look at air bubbles trapped in really old ice cores from Antartica. This takes us back around 800,000 years. For more recent records, we can just look at tree ring data from around the world, which is directly tied to yearly CO2 and temperature levels. Its astound that you could doubt the science of climate change while debating about it on an internet forum. The technology, and science underpinning the technology, of your computer, the internet, etc. is far more advanced than anything you need to measure or predict climate change. But look, I hope all you skeptics are right. I hope there is nothing to worry about, and all these people including myself are completely wrong. But I am nearly certain you are not wrong, and anyone born in the 21st century will have to face unprecedented natural and civil unrest. |

Don't you think it would be important to parse out CO2's impact form other factors? The data you're referencing I think is reflected below right?: And now here: I would argue that U.S. temperature readings are more accurate than global temp readings because it was more actively recorded since 1880 than other locations. Let's assume that the temp readings are accurate enough to be of some use. The US had very warm weather in the 1930s and you can see the evidence here from the EPA: But as the CO2 history shows CO2 levels didn't really increase up to 1930. They did increase after that but temperatures fell. In fact in the 1970s there were articles written about a coming ice age. So being critical of an exclusive focus on CO2 is useful because we need to have perspective on what's really going on IF that's within our ability. I hope you'll at least agree it's not a simple cause/effect story in the data that is presented. A high school class would be pretty confused hearing the theory and then looking at these charts (which are Nasa, EPA, standard data thrown around). |

Entropy always increases or stays the same. It can NEVER decrease...EVER. You cannot heat a warmer surface using a colder gas...EVER. You cannot trap heat. You cannot trap thermal energy. There is always heat. You cannot heat a warmer object with a colder one. Heat has a direction defined by this law. Energy will naturally dissipate until it is all is uniformly distributed. Both laws of thermodynamics are correct for any given system. You should also take time to learn the Stefan-Boltzmann law: r = C * e * t^4 where 'r' is radiance in watts per square area, 'C' is a natural constant (which serves to convert the relation to our units of measurement), 'e' is a measured constant 'emissivity' or how well the surface absorbs and emits light, and 't' is temperature in deg K.
