Momorider Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I will start off Not only temperature, absolutely nothing that is occurring now in either weather or climate is anywhere near out of the ordinary over the past 10,000 years. No evidence that the rate of change has increased, or the frequency of severe weather, or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted October 19, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted October 19, 2018 As soon as they come up with a plan that involves not enriching the govt or govt cronies when "combating climate change" I'll listen. Until then its just govt being govt wanting to control us and more importantly our money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll enjoy a lower monthly electric bill, the led lights in the garage will actually light up when it’s 20 below, when I get ready to put in a whole house propane generator I can size it smaller, the LED lights produce less waste heat, so my AC doesn’t have to work as hard, etc. That’s just one example of something pretty much anyone can do for little up front cost and tons of benefits.

Went to led's few years ago but only to save me money. Might be doing solar in the next 5 years. Same reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can still get regular incandescents and their slightly better version, halogen in the stores. I've got a couple of fixtures that LED's just don't look good in, so I'm rocking halogens in those for now. I don't think it will be long before they improve LED technology to work for me in those locations. I'm on the pickier side of how my lighting "looks" though. Really, most anti global warming measures are at their core, energy saving measures since much of our energy is sourced from fossil fuels. And energy costs money, so a lot of it can certainly be a money saving thing too. Making sure your car tires are aired up to the proper psi, so you get the better mpg's than if you're 5 lbs low, how much does that cost? Not much. Instead of thinking of "greenie" things as only being for the environment, think of them as "greenie" things that help you save greenbacks - or whatever you call your currency up there.

They are here and I think its coming there. The cheapest heat and power generation is fossil fuel next to Nuclear. Wind and Solar are astronomically more expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just focus on the stuff that saves you money for now. Eventually technology will make other sources of energy more attractive . Government investment will expedite that process. Running out of fossil fuels will certainly expedite things as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
