Global Warming

[PaulLowrance]

I don't think any sane scientist would say humans offer absolutely zero to global warming, but the question is how much. We know from measurements that the temperature of the area in and around every major city increases from just an increase in traffic alone. Then there's smog due to humanity. Take a look at major cities-- terrible smog. The list of what humans have and are doing is almost endless.

How each person can help is almost endless as well. From the smallest things such as using more efficient light bulbs, to adding double pained windows.

Just recently on the news they showed a city in the US where people are getting together to pain the roofs of buildings & such with a color that reflects more of the sun light. Now those are great people!! Every square meter (1 meter = 3.28 feet) receives ~ 1000 watts of solar radiation. So you can see just how much it helps to paint your roof white. You can look this up to find out the details, what type of paint they're using.

Asphalt roads absorb nearly all sun light! Take a look at how many roads there are in the world! So that's a massive contribution to global warming.

Hey, I just looked up the emissivity of Asphalt. It's 0.93. That means Asphalt absorbs 93% of all solar light!

Now if you could just place thin sheets of highly polished Aluminum on your roof, you'd be the greenest home in the world probably, as it's emissivity is 3.9%.

I use a mix of my own.White latex exterior the whitest you can find.Mixed with zircopax and bone white porcelin clay plus a preventative from shrinking with about 20 percent spar boat deck varnish. It requires a little bit of automotive antifreeze to get them all to mix together. It's a variant of what they use on some gov ships planes buildings. There are a number of other compounds you can add like zinc to make it conductive for protection from lightning strikes. I use on my truck because it blocks out most of the heat and it will fck a tree up good if the truck scrapes against a tree or a branch. Rather then tree huger it's a tree grinder. I wont go into the insulating qualities but if you use multible coats you can mix half with baking soda and the other half with a acid so it forms co2 bubbles in the paint.

Wow, great work! I hope you'll share more on your techniques.
But CO2 bubbles, in the context at hand, that might be understood wrong :-) What's wrong with air bubbles for insulation? :-) I know, for the chimistry, CO2 works out easier.

He must be a crackpot, Ron Paul Cult, Big Oil Supporter, Militia, Black Helicopter, Right Wing, Republican, Slave Trade lover, Racist, Evil, Nazi, Anti-Environmental Supporter. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH MY WORD!!! Not another Conspiracy NUT!!!!!!

The virulent anti-warmist Ron Paulists. Hmm. interesting!

Here's an update from the Copenhagen summit:

Lord Monckton, who has been attending the UN Climate
summit, attempted to obtain a draft of the current
negotiating text agreement and was initially rebuffed.
The persons responsible argued for ten minutes over it
and did not produce the treaty until Monckton
threatened an international diplomatic incident.
      Eventually they relented and handed him a multi
thousand page document which he had to search right
through to find a copy of the treaty, somewhat
inconveniently placed right at the bottom of the pile.

   He maintains that this document represents a
'global government power grab' on an 'unimaginable scale.'

Here are some of the features:

1)  The creation of 700 new bureaucracies and a massive
raft of new taxes including 2 per cent levies on both GDP
and every financial transaction.

2)  The new World Government would be handed powers to
    'Tax the American Economy to the extent of 2 per cent
GDP, and impose a further tax of 2 per cent on every
financial transaction... and to close down effectively
the economies of the west, transfer your jobs to third
world countries - all of that is still in the treaty draft.'

This new system of taxation will be paid directly to the
World Bank. The Kyoto protocol would be abandoned, and
climate change finance would be under control of the World
Bank.

Money given to poor countries to adapt to climate change
will be dependent on them taking a range of actions
( Just as PhiScience pointed out in his concisely relevant
email, and just as the IMF already does)

The new proposed taxes would amount to at least half the
entire US defence budget.

It is intended to auction allowances to emit greenhouse
gases and if you don't buy an allowance to emit greenhouse
gases, you won't be allowed to emit them - it's quite
simple.

There is a provision for a uniform global levy of 2 dollars
per ton of CO2 for ALL fossil fuel emmissions - as well
as an additional tax on every commercial plane journey,
except ones that go to poor countries.

There will also be a tax on fuel.

And there will also be severe penalties for non-compliance.

Please think - hard - about what this will mean for you
and your family.

This World Government system is being set up right now,
and on the basis of a massive, criminal fraud. This isn't
just a question of 'a few bad scientists' who have no
connection to anything going on in the rest of climate
science.
    These 'few bad apples' who are right now distancing
themselves from each other while they await 'investigation'
by an agency which is itself a vehement advocate of
global warming - can we say the words 'whitewash imminent'?? 
- were presenting the UN with data that was interfered with
at every level. They obstructed Freedom of Information
requests, they exerted peer pressure to smear dissenters,
they messed with computer code -

And we trust these guys enough where a global bureaucracy
is being set up on the basis of phony science that will have
a massive negative impact on your pocket - and your freedom -
FOREVER, while a cartel of international banksters will
enrich themselves - unimaginably - at your expense.
As if they do not already have more money than they
can possibly spend. They are LAUGHING at you. A third of US
agricultural produce will be spent on biofuels, people will
and be and are already starving because of these policies.

Just ask yourself - do you really want this? Do you seriously
want to live in the kind of world that is coming?
- where a faceless company that you have no dealings with
monitors sensing mechanisms in your fridge, cutting off
the power when they consider it expedient to do so - and not
when you need it? I am not just making this up -
'smart meters' are going to be fitted to every house in the
UK, there will be remote monitoring and more. There will be
'Green Police' inspecting our properties making sure we
comply with every regulation.

If you think Brave New World and 1984 were just
fiction, please, dream on.

It's happening right now - this  reality is heading fast
in your direction, propelled on the wings of the Copenhagen
summit.
