Climate Change - The Facts

Climate Change – The Facts

 

We constantly hear about climate change and I have tried to take this up with the experts however it seems political views are more popular than scientific ones.

Just a side note, the world people will probably kill each other off long before climate change.

Now the facts.

Firstly, global warming, I dispute this on a scientific basis. As an Engineer, I do not believe that scientists can measure every square kilometre of the earths surface taking into account seasonal changes and normal variations in weather, to an accuracy of part of a degree as they claim. I have been going to the beach for half a century and it hasn’t changed in that time.

Secondly, there are several major contributors to pollution such as China, India and USA, and we, in a small country like Australia, add very little. However when States like Queensland legislate for Carbon credits, then change their mind, and legislate for more land clearing, then change their mind and offer to pay farmers to keep trees, it shows they have no idea of environmental degradation and surface denuding that is the problem.

There are currently ideas that can help now, like Hydrogen Fuel Cell cars and using the CO2 from Coal powerhouses to produce bioplastics using cyanobacteria, but no one wants to know. They are pushing for solar and wind that are both useless as primary sources of power.

 

I’ll leave it at that now, any questions ask me. Just post your questions.

Integrating Renewable Energy, Battery Storage, and Clean Coal Technologies for Efficient Power Supply

Engineering Report: Integrating Renewable Energy, Battery Storage, and Clean Coal Technologies for Efficient Power Supply 1. Introduction This report expands upon the previous analysis by incorporating the integration of renewable energy sources (wind and solar) with battery storage, demand-based zero-voltage switching, and clean coal technologies. The objective is to establish a more efficient and sustainable power system that diminishes reliance on inefficient steam turbine-based generation, minimizes pollution, and addresses the challenges of demand fluctuations and peak demand periods. 2. Inefficiencies of Traditional Power Generation Both coal and nuclear power plants rely on steam turbines to generate electricity, which introduces significant inefficiencies: 2.1 Coal and Nuclear Power Indirect Electricity Generation: Coal and nuclear plants cannot generate electricity directly. They rely on steam turbines, which operate at 40-45% efficiency in converting thermal energy to mechani...

Left and Right politics

What can you call a political party that does not define itself as left or right? A political party that does not define itself as left or right can be referred to as a "centrist," "non-aligned," "independent," or "third way" party. These terms indicate a position that either seeks a middle ground between traditional political divisions or rejects the conventional left-right spectrum altogether.

Options for Clean, Viable Energy Alternatives in the Future

Engineering Report Author:  R. Ruys AMIEAust Email:    RonRuys@RuysAustralia.com Mobile:  0423 483 804 Date:     9 December 2024 Abstract This report examines strategies for achieving a sustainable and clean energy future by critically evaluating current energy systems and exploring viable alternatives. It highlights the limitations of traditional heat-based energy systems such as coal, gas, and nuclear fission, and the potential of nuclear fusion, wind, and solar energy. The report advocates for integrating renewable energy with advanced battery storage systems to address intermittency and ensure grid stability. Additionally, it discusses the role of CO2 conversion technologies in reducing emissions and enhancing energy sustainability. Executive Summary With global energy demands rising, reliance on fossil fuels and other heat-based systems continues to harm the environment. Although renewables like wind and solar face challenges such as intermittency, the...
