Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne takes responsibility for high electricity prices, calling them a 'mistake' https://nationalpost.com/news/world/ontario-premier-kathleen-wynne-takes-responsibility-for-high-electricity-prices-calling-them-a-mistake There it is!!!! You only care about money. Every fucking issue aside from military and or walls comes down to the same knee jerk reaction, "what's it gonna cost ME". Soooo predictable. And yet, here you are, doing fine no doubt, not struggling financially at all. Add in the fact the other things beside carbon are emitted from the burning of fossil fuels including cancer causing carcinogens and other toxins that pollute our air and water. Then we as a society have to overcome the exponentially higher back end cost of inaction because you wanted to save a little tax money up front. Penny wise and pound foolish. Never mind the fact that obviously taxes are already and have long been structured in ways that incentivize certain things while discouraging others at least here in the states with deductions for this and that. Then add the fact that energy producers would be directly and financially motivated to invest in cleaner sources, the tax receipts that are brought in can be used to fund research into new technologies. If money is what drives your stance though, I am happy to report some positive news that even you can enjoy: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/19/renewable-energy-is-cost-effective-says-michael-milken.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taxes can help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. The less the ice melts, the less methane is released. Global warming doesn't cause forest fires but it can exacerbate their intensity and effects. Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XC.Morrison Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I have an alternate Swede for those who find Greta too divisive or ill credentialed. He was a scientist and he was around way before Al Gore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svante_Arrhenius In developing a theory to explain the ice ages, Arrhenius, in 1896, was the first to use basic principles of physical chemistry to calculate estimates of the extent to which increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) will increase Earth's surface temperature through the greenhouse effect.[3][22][23] These calculations led him to conclude that human-caused CO2 emissions, from fossil-fuel burning and other combustion processes, are large enough to cause global warming. This conclusion has been extensively tested, winning a place at the core of modern climate science.[24][25] Arrhenius, in this work, built upon the prior work of other famous scientists, including Joseph Fourier, John Tyndall and Claude Pouillet. Arrhenius wanted to determine whether greenhouse gases could contribute to the explanation of the temperature variation between glacial and inter-glacial periods.[26] Arrhenius used infrared observations of the moon – by Frank Washington Very and Samuel Pierpont Langley at the Allegheny Observatory in Pittsburgh — to calculate how much of infrared (heat) radiation is captured by CO2 and water (H2O) vapour in Earth's atmosphere. Using 'Stefan's law' (better known as the Stefan–Boltzmann law), he formulated what he referred to as a 'rule'. In its original form, Arrhenius's rule reads as follows: if the quantity of carbonic acid increases in geometric progression, the augmentation of the temperature will increase nearly in arithmetic progression. Here, Arrhenius refers to CO2 as carbonic acid (which refers only to the aqueous form H2CO3 in modern usage). The following formulation of Arrhenius's rule is still in use today:[27] {\displaystyle \Delta F=\alpha \ln(C/C_{0})} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XC.Morrison Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Over the past 40 years the earth has warmed .7 Degrees C. Has the tilt of the earth changed in the last 40 years? No. Has volcanic activity increased over the last 40 years? No. Has the intensity of the sun increased over the the last 40 years? No. What exactly is the "natural" process that deniers are using to explain the warming away these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
