1988-1995 HIGHER TEMPS IGNORED

All the IPCC will say today is that we must keep the average global temperature below 1.5 degrees which is confusing. Their previous warning was a little more specific when it said that we must limit the average global temperature to no more than 1.5 C above the pre-industrial average temperature but they have never […]

COAL PLANT CO2 RESIDUALS TO 1%

A literature review undertaken as part of this study exposes the 90% capture rate cap as an artificial limit. It is an historical benchmark based on the economics of capture. To-date, capture technology developers have largely focused on designing plant for CO2 capture rates of 85% to 90%, leaving 10-15% of the emissions uncaptured, which […]

KARL SAVED CLIMATE CONFERENCES

In the video below, on the tenth of July 1997, prior to the Kyoto Climate conference, John Holdren confirmed a one degree Fahrenheit rise in world temperature over the previous hundred years, the same amount of warming previously announced in a Whitehouse statement some two years earlier. Tom Karl of NOAA spoke about about rainfall […]

CONVERTING PLASTICS BACK TO OIL

There is more concern about global warming/climate change than the plastics that are currently overwhelming our ocean environment. Children are being encouraged, by the UN and their primary school teachers, to protest about the governments lack of action in combating climate change by gluing themselves to roadways like the young lady who padlocked herself to […]

PLASTIC EV’S NOT PLANET FRIENDLY

While electric cars can be up to 50% plastic and only contribute to about 10% of an electric car’s total weight, the claim that they are more energy efficient and environmentally friendly, needs further scrutiny. The greater use of plastics will improve the weight to power ratio over its metal counterparts but the comparison should […]
