Here’s How the Energy Crisis Turns Into Hunger and Then… War?
Here’s How the Energy Crisis Turns Into Hunger and Then… War? We have previously warned about a whopping food crisis and supply problems in the fertilizer market. Well, now is worse because that was BEFORE we had the natural gas crisis. Why is that important? Natural gas is THE critical input into making fertilizer. Urea […]
Climate scientists: concept of net zero is a dangerous trap
Climate scientists: concept of net zero is a dangerous trap Sometimes realisation comes in a blinding flash. Blurred outlines snap into shape and suddenly it all makes sense. Underneath such revelations is typically a much slower-dawning process. Doubts at the back of the mind grow. The sense of confusion that things cannot be made to fit […]
Concrete: Our Future Is Anchored in the Stuff
Concrete: Our Future Is Anchored in the Stuff The modern world is made of a wondrous, terrible product of human ingenuity. A new book tells the story. An apartment building under construction in Chile. Concrete, author Mary Soderstrom tells us, is a building material urgently needed to protect us against the climate change it helps […]
Climate explained: why carbon dioxide has such outsized influence on Earth’s climate
Climate explained: why carbon dioxide has such outsized influence on Earth’s climate I heard that carbon dioxide makes up 0.04% of the world’s atmosphere. Not 0.4% or 4%, but 0.04%! How can it be so important in global warming if it’s such a small percentage? I am often asked how carbon dioxide can have an important […]
Possible Future Trends of CO2 Concentration and Global Temperature
Possible Future Trends of CO2 Concentration and Global Temperature Wildfire smoke and power line, northern California. Photo: Jeffrey St. Clair. Carbon dioxide gas (CO2) has been accumulating in the atmosphere since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution (~1750), because increasingly voluminous fluxes of that gas have been exhausted from the lands and the oceans, and […]
Green Energy Delusion – We Can Never Get to Zero CO2
Green Energy Delusion – We Can Never Get to Zero CO2 This interesting documentary exposes the falsehood about green energy and the outright lies we are told that somehow this will save the planet. They call it BioMass energy which is cutting down forests and burning trees that consume CO2. The carbon dioxide released when burning wood (about […]
Can Europe’s Largest Economy Survive Without Coal?
Can Europe’s Largest Economy Survive Without Coal? One of the greatest moral dilemmas that has been creeping into the everyday activities of specialists working with coal, oil and in some cases even gas (despite its being perceived a natural bridge to a low-carbon future) could be phrased in the following way: how do you stop […]
Green Myths Canada’s LNG Sales Force Tells the World
Green Myths Canada’s LNG Sales Force Tells the World No, methane’s no fix for global coal-fired energy. Here’s why. Representatives of the British Columbia, Alberta and federal governments are making the global rounds these days to sell the notion that liquefied natural gas exports can help the climate crisis. Dave Nikolejsin, deputy minister of the […]
A globalised solar-powered future is wholly unrealistic – and our economy is the reason why
A globalised solar-powered future is wholly unrealistic – and our economy is the reason why Over the past two centuries, millions of dedicated people – revolutionaries, activists, politicians, and theorists – have been unable to curb the disastrous and increasingly globalised trajectory of economic polarisation and ecological degradation. This is perhaps because we are utterly trapped in flawed […]
