    Incentivizing green energy is a good thing, the thing we need to stop is subsidizing the fossil fuel industry with taxpayer money. About burning wood, it needs to be disincentivized by taxing it, the same way Ireland decided to tax Subway "bread" higher because it isn't real bread (10% sugar) and not part of a healthy diet.

    Yes, burning wood, is just another way to release more carbon ....

    Yes! and did you see where they mentioned what China is doing? Devious! The best part of the series for me was them showing how much more open to manipulation humans are versus other animals, and how to hack one's own mind in order to filter out bad information. Very useful.

    2030? are you from the future or just stuck in the past lol
  5. LibertyBell
    even if you dont believe that climate change is an existential threat, you should know that fossil fuels lower air quality, fracking causes earthquakes (via wastewater injection) and a general increase in pollution.

    Carbon taxes? That would work, but tax the fossil fuel companies even more than the consumers. But this has to be done on a global level......when was the last time humanity did anything on a global level? The ozone layer problem (which btw the ozone layer is getting larger now over Antarctica.)

    These wildfire complexes are particularly alarming, as large fires are now joining together to become huge megafires. The first million acre megafire was just recorded.
  8. LibertyBell
    Yes and until they are overcome, none of these 2035/2050 plans will work. The Paris Climate Accord is but a hollow shell, something MUCH stronger and binding is required (with economic sanctions if necessary).

    Poetic justice will be when massive hurricanes take out fossil fuel infrastructure, which is actually built near coastal areas.

    looks west to east, centered on central-eastern PA to N NJ, NYC and LI....I wish we get storms like this in the winter too (with snow of course)
  11. LibertyBell
    did you read the Chevron article on how they deal with class action lawsuits? it amounts to lawyer intimidation and getting favorable judges to punish those who bring lawsuits against them
  12. LibertyBell
    and sea level rise is on par with the more extreme models

    Chris, remember we talked about how a cold October and mild November used to be a pretty good indicator of a snowy winter? That lasted until 1996 lol.

    wow 5 inches in the Poconos and 3 inches here, is the other guidance similar? any wind issues?
  15. LibertyBell
    brilliant sunset now as the storms are ending
  16. LibertyBell
    we just had tstorms and hail here on the south shore....it really feels like fall! We get these kinds of storms in early fall when the ocean is warmer than the air temp
  17. LibertyBell
    slower jet stream and slower gulf stream too?
  18. LibertyBell
    Indeed- we need a negative carbon footprint, I posted a study about that

    the fossil fuel industry needs to be banned from lobbying or giving money to politicians, they need to be treated like a drug cartel
  20. LibertyBell
    do they expect to die before they feel the negative effects of climate change?
  21. LibertyBell
    Don did you see the 60 Min piece on climate change? Basically they said that Hansen was right all the way back in the 80s and that Mann was correct also. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/60-minutes-archive-climate-change-2020-10-04/ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/climate-scientists-earth-future-60-minutes-2020-10-04/

    it's already close to 25%....I see quite rapid advancements in battery storage that will make the majority of cars electric by 2030, let alone 2035.
  24. LibertyBell
    who decided that taxpayers should be paying for the fossil fuel industry? the politicians who decided that should be ousted immediately and the fossil fuel industry should be banned from lobbying (add NRA and PhRMA to that)
  25. LibertyBell
    is this because of cost?
