Finally back online to reply to these..argh, shock horror, i'm using windows too...(cringes)...
Any way i am surprised at you guys..I've been waiting for someone to point out the nuclear reactors that i missed...
ok to start with there are 1200, reactors worldwide on land...Any body gettin the jist of what i missed yet...
ok, for those that don't, here goes...
War ships, submarines, aircraft carriers, etc etc...
now what i dont know is how the hell do they not heat the sea when they dont carry land based cooling ponds, oh yeh there exempt...The epa in the US have been slowly opening up there problems with nuclear power generation..KYOTO protocol calls for a reduction in green house gas pollution, if nuclear power generation is so good why, why is the US not willing to join it unconditionally...They are not alone but they do yell the loudest...lets get golliath to toe the line in regards to world ecology and the rest will slowly follow..
Nuclear powered ships and submarines leave huge heat trails when passing thru the ocean..It is detectable and that is the only way to detect some of these submarines...it is a hard process to detect them but they leave a heat trail, if that is not damaging to the ecology then i dont know what is...oh yeh heat doesnt cause global warming, only fossil fuel waste...
come on!, any heat production causes some degree of global warming, including shiney house roof's...whats wrong with the old methods of construction...oh yeh, not many like mudbricks and they dont come in all the fancy colours...
Hey guys i understand that here the arguments are a bit of a waste as you all have an interest in the planet and can see the effects of what an increase in temperaturs will do, or a decrease...but if i bring some of this up here then you guys will pass it on and this info will spread...its like domino's, as long as they align they will transfer there energy....
anyway one other thing...photovoltaic cells have increased in output in the last 20 years..dont know the exact figure but its hugely efficent compared to the 80's..and the governments dont put any large amounts of research money towards them...wind has some benefit, but like victoria(portsea i think) they installed there windmills off the coast and if you incorporate a swell generator with the wind generator then you get a double bonus and the platforn that the tower sits on is of more use than just a foundation..
Yes we have some pristene(somebody get a dictionary) coastline but we will mine it or destroy it some how so lets look at utilising the spots that are half wrecked and reduce human impact on them...by installing these turbines people wont want to live there, we hope...
your roof on your house should be solar panels, and the design and construction should be for saving on heating and cooling...now mudbrick and rammed earth are cheaper than brick but people want this fancy brick...lets get back to earth a bit and save on bills too..
another thing, about wildlife..umm i see out side that the state forestry group(known as C.A.L.M) are burning off again...Now how much did they burn this year, 100,000+ acres.. sounds like a lot of country..try the fact the forest here is very thick and they burn off all summer...even been known to light fires when no one else is allowed to light the bbq..middle of summer you get burnoffs down here, and i can tell you, it stinks, the sky is orangey red and the smoke is every where...Now i wonder how many animals where cremated by these fires, when you drive down the road past an area they are burning off, you see everything from snakes to bandicoots and kangaroos having to find a new home...If some one burnt my home i would be peeved to say the least..So using wind farms is no where near as damaging as fire...Another thing that destroys the wildlifes homes is urban sprawl, but then everybody wants a new fancy home...another that kills birds is high rise buildings, but hey i dont think they will stop building them...
enough for now...back later...
