Wind farms are a thing because a wind turbine can only be so big: for more power, you put up more of them. They are so cheap because all the costs are transparent, there is noplace to bury wholly-legal graft. A big farm…
...which involves drilling.
None of these dams ever produced more than the tiniest fraction of even just the commercial value of the fisheries they destroyed. They totally didn't care.
The value extracted from the dams was never more than a tiny fraction of just the commercial value of the fishery each eliminated, wholly leaving aside the matter of causing extinctions. California's system with dams…
And, a compiler that knows custom SIMD optimizations for every algorithm anyone might ever need, and can recognize when you have coded one of them so it can substitute its SIMD version.
The meteorite was worth way more than the price of a new Malibu. And the Malibu itself sold at auction for way more, too. So, hope every day to have your car struck by a meteorite.
Not just back to +1.5C, but to where you would have been by that time. Meanwhile, the whole ocean ecosystem has collapsed as acidification continued on up. The primary protein source of a billion+ people has vanished.…
Gaslighting unwelcome. It would be disastrous if a program in any way like this went ahead, because it would be seen as a substitute for fixing the root problem, would steal funding from the latter, and would do nothing…
I tried a Beyond Meat burger. It tasted so much like the real thing that I did not finish it. It had that rusty-nail sharpness I have not missed at all. I have been vegetarian for ~30 years. Pork and ham are the only…
Just one? There are numerous mainland Chinese and Russian certificate authorities listed. I always have to go through and disable them. How did they get in there in the first place, and what keeps them there?
Instead of siting polar panels in the desert, it would be overwhelmingly more efficient use of resources to float the solar panels on the canals and reservoirs involved, cutting evaporation and bio-fouling while keeping…
There is no idea so bad that nobody will embrace it.
Each dollar diverted to nukes from solar and wind brings climate catastrophe nearer. The money spent on coal alone while waiting for a nuke to come online would suffice to build out enough solar and wind to match the…
Carbon capture cannot be any kind of solution to excess carbon emission rate. However, after carbon emissions has been substantially curtailed, we will need to capture the carbon already exhausted, because otherwise it…
I am corrected.
Right. Of course everybody cribbed from everybody else. You can't draw any meaningful conclusions from stuff like this. Citing Irish tales from 2200+ years after the supposed event do not help credibility.
California has got reliable power from geo for quite a few decades, as has Iceland. Iceland is not awash in geysers. Geo costs more than renewables, but that was not at issue. It is anyway cheaper than nukes, in places…
