Why I use Clipmarks
Clipmarks is the first vital step towards the collaborative creation of a new level of metaknowledge enabling people to better understand the big picture. The next step is to use multifaceted taxonomies as the intellectual tools for collecting and organising the evidence on which metaknowledge is based.

Shell's Shale Plans...? (or Why I Am an Oil Shale Skeptic)
JICWyllie
by JICWyllie  5-13-2008    1
 It's the same issue in the Alberta tar sands -- turning pure water to toxic water on a massive scale. The difference is that in Canada, it is already happening with the help of government tax breaks.

 It doesn't say how much the unit costs. It might work better on a street-scale, than a home scale.

 Either people will "turn on a dime", or they will rush headlong into the abyss like the Gaderine swine. All people have to do is change their mind about what is important.

 The change required is much simpler, and costs no money. Just go on a spending strike and a travel strike. When money is short, its the time to stop spending (and borrowing), outside absolute necessities. Spend quality time on family and neighbors. Till some earth near you. Make it more fertile. Engage with nature.

 By 2010, the tar sands will be emitting as much CO2 as all the cars in Canada, while actively destroying the precious forest, which is turned into methane as the vegetation rots.

The U. S. Electric Grid: Will It Be Our Undoing?
JICWyllie
by JICWyllie  5-7-2008   
 An important article about an under-discussed topic. The investment required to keep the grid from falling apart is billions (hard to find at the best of times, harder in the "credit crunch"). Will the result be re-nationalisation and e-rationing?

 From a selfish (human-centred) point of view, here's another reason why food prices will continue to rise at an accelerating rate. From the point of view of the bees, it must be even worse.

 What people think does not matter. They will be forced to comply to a low carbon lifestyle because they will not be able to afford to do anything else. The economy will be the irresistible enforcer.

Low Spending Is Taking Toll on Economy
JICWyllie
by JICWyllie  5-1-2008    1
 "Growth" is now clearly a meaningless concept. On the necessities side -- food, fuel etc. -- inflation is counted as "growth". (No more food or fuel is being produced or used.) This is balanced against deflation and recession in the discretionary economy, and is interpreted as positive growth. These are two different phenomena and cannot be added together in a meaningful way. Yet achieving this growth is what economics is supposed to be all about. Just another reason why the so-called science of economics is literally nonsense and innumerate to boot.
