Temperature monitoring authorities including NASA headed by James Hansen, British Meteorology Office (David Parker),and CRU East Anglia (Phil Jones) had posted similar temperatures for more then 90 Years. In 1996 they agreed to reduce the global temperature baseline they had all been using from 59 F (15 C) to 57 F (14 C), this resulted […]

THE NET ZERO NATURAL GAS PLANT
Included in a group of technologies known as carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), zero-emission fossil fuel plants have been a dream never realized in practice, adding between 5¢ and 10¢ per kWh. This is probably because most attempts just add on another step after the traditional electricity generation steps, almost as an afterthought. But this […]
FOSSIL FUELS NOT THE MAIN CAUSE
United Press International, Aug. 17, 2000 — James Hansen chief scientist at NASA, considered to have been instrumental in sparking serious debate over global warming, suggested this week that emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from burning fossil fuels are not the main culprit in global warming, and that the world should now instead focus on […]
LOW EMISSIONS OF COAL POWER?
My name is Terence Cardwell . I spent 25 years in the Electricity Commission of NSW working, commissioning and operating the various power units. My last was the 4 X 350 MW Munmorah Power Stations near Newcastle. (demolished) Terence expresses his opinion of Coal fired power plants: First coal fired power stations do NOT send […]
WORLD’S FORESTS UNDER THREAT
Since 2009, the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive (RED) has allowed Member States to subsidise energy from burning biomass. The aim was to cut emissions, but it didn’t take into account the many disadvantages of bioenergy: Member States have transformed coal power stations to burn woody biomass, cut their own forests for fuel, and even imported trees […]
ELECTRIC CAR DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS
EXTRA EMISSIONS IN CHARGING AND MANUFACTURE If you listen to the media, a green automotive future has arrived and a tsunami of electric cars is outselling petrol and diesel around the world, transforming the planet and solving climate change. We need a reality check. Battery-powered electric vehicles are fairly popular in urban China and California, […]
CARBON DIOXIDE IS NOT CARBON
Carbon Dioxide is a Compound–Carbon is an Element. Carbon dioxide. A heavy colorless gas CO2 that does not support combustion, dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, is formed especially in animal respiration and in the decay or combustion of animal and vegetable matter, is absorbed from the air by plants in photosynthesis, and is used […]
TRUTH ABOUT THE WIND AND SOLAR SWINDLE
THE FOLLY OF RENEWABLE ENERGY PROMOTION The percentage of the time that the renewable resources produce power is really low. In Germany, the number one example of the energy shift, solar produces its rated power output just 11% of the time, which means you need a backup for 89 % of the time. For wind, […]
WOOD HEATERS CONTRIBUTE TO GREENHOUSE
“I LOVE THE SMELL OF BURNING WOOD ITS FRAGRANCE IS SO CLEAN AND GOOD” While it is nice and cozy to sit by a wood fire in the evening it is not much good for the health of our planet. The reality is it produces black carbon which has recently emerged as a major contributor […]
WARMING IS CAUSING A SEVERE POLAR VORTEX
“The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment project allocations, and the power of money, is ever present and is gravely to be regarded”. “Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become […]
