Sub's Alternative Energy Thread

[wufan]

About 2/3 of the way through Apocalypse Never. It’s an easy read filled with anecdotes, policies, and science that he’s experienced in his 30 years as an activist. The theme of the book is how to achieve maximum conservation and minimum pollution through industrialization. It’s a humanist take that suggests energy density pulls people out of poverty, takes less land, and pollutes less, thus allowing for The generated wealth to conserve the unused land. He does a nice job of using the existing data put out by the IPCC and other pro-environment groups to show the benefits in a policy shift.

Here’s a pushback on Shellenbergs article promoting his book:

Interestingly, ClimateFeedback is partially funded by Jerry Brown and Will McKinnon. Two individuals that are heavily called out in the book.

They are also supported by NASA, who is not called out.

Whether it works or not, whether it's worth the effort, that's one funny commercial.

AOC is lovin' it! Sometimes ridiculous sells and that's probably the marketing angle, but the premise is pure insanity.
Next thing you know, they'll be trying to control human farts... no more Taco Shop burritos for Tyrone Shoelace...

Cow farts aren’t the issue. It’s cow burbs.

Cow farts aren’t the issue. It’s cow burps.

This is a joke of a proposal that will never see the light of day. Governor Gruesome is just trying to make himself look cool. He is the biggest joke.

Aren’t we fortunate to have a rich man taking away freedoms and mandating how we should live.
