Global warming is real and underway

Global Warming Questions

A lot of information about global warming gets slung around from both sides of the issue. Some argue against climate models while others see the merit in climate models. Just so that we are all on the same page I would like to propose the following simple questions to those amongst who have an educated [...]

SPS and Global Warming

Although it is true that most of the energy beamed to earth from an SPS will be radiated into the environment as heat, it does not at all follow that this will result in more or even significant global warming than fossil fuel. First of all, much of the energy in generating stations is expended [...]

Energy Get From Wind

The amount of energy available from wind is limited by the sites suitable for major wind installations. Think of this as being like hydroelectric power. Hydro plants can only be usefully located where there’s a significant water flow across a significant drop. Generally, a dam has to be built to create such a situation; Niagara [...]

CFC Gas and Global Warming

The global warming is due to increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere due to (among other things) increased burning of fossil fuels and the depletion of the plant life (rainforests and phytoplankton) that convert that carbon dioxide back into free oxygen and plant material. So what do CFC gasses have to do with global warming? [...]

Global Warming Issue

For decades the prevailing assumption has been that a fossil-fuel-based economy would be constrained by oil, gas and coal depletion. Logical enough. But global warming has turned that paradigm on its head: It now appears that the atmosphere’s ability to assimilate fossil-fuel wastes will be the limiting factor. The question is no longer how much [...]

Global Warming Coastal Flooding

A friend recently told me of an interesting study done by two geologists. The study was an explanation of why none of the predicted sea coast flooding has occured yet.  This flooding is predicated by those who forsee global warming due to the CO2 and halogen-organics that have been added to the atmosphere since the [...]

Help Stop Global Warming

Global warming could do more than just melt polar ice. It could change our maps, and displace people from cities and tropical islands.
