How or Why we will reverse global warming

[Skuzzy]

Carbon dioxide is also very good att killing people.
Edit: And you also have to concider all the other particles that are created when combusting carbohydrates.

Best reason for droping carbohydrates imo is that we get rid of combustion engines, it would be so much more awesome to have an electric car powered by a solar panel skin. Now we just pay a lot of money for fuel and then use 80% of it to make heat for the radiator...

Right, because solar cells are so safe for the environment.

Keep in mind the following link is a pro-solar cell publication: http://www.solarindustrymag.com/issues/SI1309/FEAT_05_Hazardous_Materials_Used_In_Silicon_PV_Cell_Production_A_Primer.html

One day,....maybe.

Dont you think Im aware of it?

Dont you think Im aware of it?

Not sure.

I am pretty sure a lot of people are not aware of it.

[Zimme83]

Most isnt, thats true. But i am. But on the other hand there are some interesting progress on the area. For ex scientist have found a way to use iron as a base for solar cells.

Edit: i Know there are a lot to sort out before its realistic. But it would still be awesome to have a car that you didnt need to refuel.

that is nice.  good thing the government did not buy 100,000 cars with the toxic tech.  whew, a frantic fervor could cause bad decisions that waste resources.

You can go to Gizmag and read about scientific "break throughs" out the bung hole.

Then you can keep reading about them at Gizmag about every 2-5 years as getting closer for prime time after the initial article hailing the "possible" parting of the seas and saving of mankind. In the end the world is full of "break throughs" and very few ever make it to market as the planet wide life changing thingamajig to save us from what ever the catastrophe flavor of the month. The holy grail for solar energy is 40% efficiency, the best today is almost 20% on a good day. Some Israelis though they had it by using nano particles of different wave lengths suspended in a matirix to capture more of the possible energy spectrum of light. That was 5 years ago and....... Then there is the movement to artificially duplicate photosynthesis and the movement to use a better catalyst and on and on. 

Gizmag, if you search it's articles, has about a half dozen "solar" energy break throughs that .... well..... I believe Zimmie's is there to.  Or the school of thought presented by another university group.

The point is, unless it's on a store shelf near you, it's wonderful entertainment but, has no impact on today or even 5 years from now because it doesn't yet exist outside of laboratory. But, makes for great counter points in this kinds of POSTS.

Climate change is the latest name for silliness... It's always changing. I believe the man-made warming guys are getting very nervous....

Britain's Meteorology Office just issued a warning that Britain might be facing another Maunder Minimum period of cooling. Ditto for most of the northern hemisphere. Lasting 50 years, 100 years, maybe longer...

That website reminds me of the National Enquirer.  There are header stories about statues on Mars, UFOs, parallel universes, a gang killing of a pedophile by feeding him dog poo, etc.

They also said that the Maunder Minimum, which froze the River Thames 300 years ago, will be offset by recent global warming.  <shrug> just seems more like sensational journalism than science to me...

So.....in case it hasn't been covered in the previous 28 pages, how much warming has there been? 5 degrees, 10?

I think you might have meant hydrocarbons.  Carbohydrates create energy and body fat in the human body.  They are metabolized into glucose (sugar).

I can't believe I'm the only one who noticed this but I guess they do eventually get released into the atmosphere  .

It probably depends on how many carbohydrates you've released.

I saw that, it made me realize there really is no point!
Lol

you are correct, a case of lost in translation. The Swedish word, kolväten, means carbonhydrate, hemce the confusion.

Ahh.  Didn't notice you were in Sweden.  That explains a lot.

Ice is shrinking so fast in the north they're already preparing to evacuate ice dependant villages...  Can we do something to reverse this for the next generation, or is the next generation just iphones and suv's with long commutes...?  Your own fate is in front of your own eyes...  The more conversation we have about this the better chance we have if anyone cares anymore....

Mother nature will cool and warm in cycles as she has for melinium.
