    The Zero Carbon Caravan
    egsnyder
    by egsnyder  3-8-2009   
     ...many people simply do not believe that such a world is possible, so they need a good example giving a practical demonstration of what is possible. This is where the Zero Carbon Caravan comes in (here the word ‘caravan’ is used in the sense of a group of people traveling together, rather than a metal box towed behind a car.) Maltese Falcon (290ft), and co., photo RobertGalbraithWe will demonstrate how it is possible to travel, work and play all without generating any carbon emissions at all. We will provide a positive, inspiring vision of the future, where, instead of merely consuming, we lead fulfilling lives.

    The Puzzle of Frozen Gas

    by egsnyder  11-30-2008    1
     I read "The Puzzle of Frozen Gas", page 30 Maclean's June 30/08 while waiting for my wife in a Dr.'s office. Got me doing a bit of research. Looks like methane from gas hydrates is an even bigger global warming threat than CO2.

    The Alarmist's Slick Trick
    willhelm
    by willhelm  4-9-2008    2
     "How have Al Gore and the fraudsters pulled it off? It’s really simple. They just flipped the burden of proof and put it on the “deniers” — the skeptics, who don’t believe the computer models. With the Left in control of the media, you can do it. So now it’s prove to me you’re not a witch! Because there is no decisive evidence. There are 21 computer models that “prove” global warming over the next century. By the time 2050 rolls around, most of the modelers will be dead."

    Potholes: Is porous pavement a possible solution?
    egsnyder
    by egsnyder  3-27-2008   
     Listening to a Canadian CBC radio program about potholes, it seems that climate change is making the problem more acute every year. I got thinking about a possible solution. I'm NOT an engineer, but it occurs to me that if potholes are created by a cycle of thawing and freezing of standing water, then pavement that allows water to pass right through might be a problem. I found this
