8 Stupid Solutions to Global Warming
First, I beg to differ that the weather is anything other than it has always been – changeable!
Hoax, Lies, and Obfuscation.
So there are these wacky radical people who are determined to put us into the Ice Age. Yes, it only takes a couple of degrees more cooling — for we have been cooling for 11 years now — and it takes just a wee bit more to push us into an Ice Age.
I have always maintained that view and now we have some proof that this has all been contrived by folks like Al Gore, who profited greatly from all this, and other organizations. It all points to greed — money — the age-old cause of so much turmoil and pain to others.
1. Spray It Away
Some idiot wants to spray sulfur dioxide into the Earth's nearest atmospheric levels could bind with other chemicals to reflect sunlight from the Earth. Less sunlight hitting the surface means a cooler earth and another Ice Age.
This could work only too well, causing catastrophic weather changes in certain areas (such as sudden droughts). And you are using a pollutant!! What idiots.
2. Use Sunscreen
This wacky idea has a giant screen made of criss-crossing aluminum strands and putting it into space. The screen would act like a filter, preventing some infrared radiation from reaching the planet.
A 600,000 square mile screen? Launching it? Placing it into a precise position between the sun and Earth? We don't even have a working Space Shuttle replacement yet. Get real.
3. Scrub Like the Wind
This one wants a giant HEPA-like filter to take the carbon dioxide out of the air. Uh huh.
So how many filters do we need? And where are they to be placed — like we need thousands and thousands of acres. And there is one more thing — it will take energy to separate the CO2 from the capturing chemicals and that will only produces more CO2. Doesn't make sense, does it?
4. Plant Fake Trees
Oh lord. Fake trees to absorb carbon dioxide.
They would not even look like real trees and then what do we do with captured carbon dioxide?
5. Needs More Salt
More clouds; say goodbye to the sun.
Now they want to blow salt into the air to produce them. That would increase the chances of water vapor clinging to particles (the salt) and forming clouds.
So how do we get the salt way up there?
6. Needs More Iron
Iron powder dumped into the ocean promotes the rapid growth of plankton. Plankton eats CO2, so the more the better.
Hold on there — large amounts of plankton can destroy the underwater ecosystem, killing off other species as it consumes other nutrients. So it is starving ourselves. Not smart.
7. Get Stoned
Limestone (calcium carbonate) actually contains trapped carbon dioxide. So why not turn carbon dioxide into stone? Has anyone seen Medusa?
It takes nature thousands of years to harden chemicals into stones and we would need to mine huge amounts of minerals to mix with the carbon dioxide for this mineral carbonation to work. And then heating the mixture to the high temperatures required would take even more CO2-producing energy. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
8. Bury It
Let's filter it out and then pump it underground to store it? Better still, why not pump it into places where we're trying to push oil out of the ground?
Just one thing — it is way too expensive. The gas has to be captured, compressed, and then transported to the site of injection.
Just another thing — what if it escapes years from now? Trapped in cellars, carbon dioxide could be more lethal than radon.
Yup, another way to kill us all.
