Fantastic Video!

great vid you have here

brilliant video some very interesting points

The Professional Denialist have YT Channels putting out deceptive videos like this watch?v=z685n4RMx6Y that the naive think proves CO2 is not responsible for warming the planet! Seriously, I honestly think we are doomed! It is mush easier to sell the people STUPIDITY than it is to educate them on what we are doing to the planet! It really should be a crime for knowingly putting the world at risk. This is like telling folks there is no fire in the theater when it is on fire!

It is hard not to be cynical but I don't see us doing anything to stop CO2 output! Here in the US we have a political party that denies almost all science from Evolution to Anthropogenic Climate Change! To see Republican members of Congress invoke the Bible to a panel of Climate scientist in an attempt to show them they are wrong because the deity in Bible said he would never allow the Earth to be harmed again after he flooded the Earth. Seriously, America, the GOP, will screw the world! SAD!!

Reducing black carbon, methane and ozone include capturing methane produced by landfills and fossil fuel extraction, introducing cleaner-burning cookstoves, installing particulate filters on diesel engines and banning the practice of burning fields of agricultural waste could cut projected climate warming by 0.5 degree C by 2070.(scientific American Feb 2011) But will IPCC and 'Green energy agenda MegaCorp' take this road or continue the TAX, Biofuel (Nox+) and 3rd world resource dictatorship?

@evilstoo Such cuts could be made with existing technology, and would "have immediate and multiple benefits for human well-being." But will the IPCC or the UN do anything - no - no alternatives other than - biofuels - an ethanol/kero mix that causes nitrogen oxide - potentially worse than CO2. AGW is about a corporate Green energy agenda - with a deliberate scare tactic to make people pay a TAX and dream the problem away... meanwhile MegaCorp take the money and dictate 3rd world resources.

@Blaze1024 AGW scare tactics is a con... Curbing emissions of black carbon, a component of soot, along with methane and tropospheric ozone, could cut projected climate warming by 0.5 degree C by 2070. Possible strategies for reducing black carbon, methane and ozone include capturing methane produced by landfills and fossil fuel extraction, introducing cleaner-burning cookstoves, installing particulate filters on diesel engines and banning the practice of burning fields of agricultural waste.

Just so you know, I'm an electronics engineer by trade and I'm well versed on the issues I have mentioned. Over the years we have done much to improve the efficiency of consumer electronics. For example the move from linear power supplies with a 40% efficiency rate to switching power supplies with an 80% efficiency rate and the move from antiquated incandescent lighting to advanced CFL lighting which are close to 750% more efficient while also reducing the level of atmospheric mercury

"ok you hit some very accurate issues"

Thank you for acknowledging these issues...

"You have not answered any simple questions about climate science"

That's because in and by itself I really don't care about AGW and whether its a cause in effect scenario or simply coralation. What I do see is an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. By addressing and improving upon our antiquated power generating technology we also address any correlation between man and "Global Warming"
