Pfft. Lost a "y" in Buy..lol. Lastly, Definitely don't buy into the Hype as Exxon,Chevron,etc will still provide the "commercial power" no matter what the power source is for "Gridded" technology. If you want to make a difference now you can use battery arrays and solar panels and Wind mills to get your house off the "grid" then in turn your Electric Car wont still be a part of the problem by deriving it's electric Charge from a Oil powered Electric Plant...lol

Definitely stop "pissing in our pool". Build Containment converters that recapture CO2 for reuse and/or develop technology that uses CO2 as a fuel source as once upon a time Gasoline was a "useless Byproduct' of making Kerosene. Lastly don't bother with the Politicians but instead demand cleaner technology from Industry. The Automotive Companies won't sell cars with "dirty" technology if nobody will bu them.

No, but I'm always willing to listen to somebody smarter than me. Instead of telling us what won't work, what do you suggest we do?

Aww, that is cute comment considering Exxon mines,provides,and ships most of the Uranium products wordwide so they don't actually lose by denouncing Oil as "evil". Likewise Chevron with GE and Westinghouse are heavy in Geothermal and Waterfall Power,Solar, and Wind Farms so they don't lose much either..especially as there is less taxes,less government regulation, and more profit margin in alternative energies...lol

It's Easy to Aurgue. having a point and providing the Solution would be more productive however, and bitching and moaning isn't actually "doing something". Co2 emmisions are a problem and they need to be cleaned up? Tell me How. We need cleaner technologies? Build them then. We need to have Someone do Something? Start with you. Consumers drive demand and you bought the fucken $7000 gasoline car over the $140,000 electric car...didn't you?

Sorry, but having a belief then looking for proof is a "human" thing to do as is looking at data thn drawing a conclusion that might be different from someone else looking at the same data. Like Lemetre thinking that Hubble's data showing "red Shift" being proof that his Theory of "Big Bang' was validated or Those beliving men came from Apes finding Lucy as "proof". Data showed Co2 volume is high when Tempatures are high, and someone declared it a cause instead of a reaction...hmm.

University of Hawaii. But pieces of paper say that you graduated and not necessarily you grasp the concepts of your chosen field or you have ability to use the knowledge properly and expand on it by using your own research and experiences and experiments instead of just re-babbling what you've been spoon fed. I've done hands on Co2 volume testing...have you?

I'm curious, ArchAngel, from what institution did you recieve your degree?

One good reason to watch this...good analysis of what makes an argument, well, an argument

Well, because i know Co2 is 5x heavier then air, Inert Co2 doesn't join the "green House effect", and CO2 doesn't magically absorb heat as the Tree Huggers Claim, Believing that Humans cause Global warming IS a "leap of faith" and not hard Science. It is a waste to not use resources more efficiently though and think real hard on who really benifits from governments allowing the Energy Companies to R&D alternative fuels for them to sell and distribute without Oil's overhead

Also, science and faith are not mutually exclusive.
Science doesn't ask for your faith. It just asks for your eyes. You can believe whatever you wish, so long as you keep your eyes open to the world around you.
Faith doesn't ask for your eyes, only your heart. You don't need to observe God to have faith that He exists.

See The Nature of Science (the very first expansion pack video). I'm scientifically trained myself (physics); that video accurately shows the lay person how a scientist thinks.
Simply put, scientists are trained to avoid starting from belief and looking for proof. Generally, we observe something and let the observation shape us, or we generate a hypothesis and then attempt to disprove it.
The phenomenon you're describing, confirmation bias, is one thing we are all trained to avoid.

Well. Saying something is so, such as "Humans came from Apes" or "There was a Big bang that created the Universe" and then looking for the evidence to support that Belief (oops, "B" word is never good for True Science) is often going to lead to "proof" to support a belief with the Evidence slanted toward the belief which is why in most colleges Anthropology and Cosmology is considered Philosophy or Theology rather then Practical or Applied Science

I am a Scientist. Not a Climatologist mind you as my specialty is Alternative Fuels and Artificial Life systems but to call the tree hugger political bullshit "science" is a disgrace to the term Science. CO2 that humans release is 5x heavier then "Air" and the "greenhouse gas" Co2 is .036% blended in the "Air" and Human released CO2 can NEVER mix into the "Green house effect" to "Cause Global Warming" as "they' claim. And Co2 Expands when exposed to heat, not Asorbs it

The difference is that here, you don't need to believe anything; there is evidence to work from. For faith, you need, well, faith.
