    I think denial and exaggeration are both bad ideas.

    How is it that NY used to be under a mile of ice, is denial
    Man had no implication in that, or the melting of the mile of ice.

    There are quite a few ways to store energy particularly with large scale plants. Hydrogen has been mentioned. Pumping water up hill works as well. It can also be stored as thermal energy. I'm pretty sure I've heard of other techniques. Some batteries aren't all that bad either but they tend not to be very efficient. Solar actually has a greater need for energy storage than wind does.

    Nice one. Wish I was in the pub so I could start an argument with that data.

    As for example with health and safety and discrimination law, it has its basis in a need for change but then we let the lunatics take over the asylum and its real need and intent are lost.

    If people stopped taking about it we would reduce the amount of excess hot air and save the planet with no further action needed.

    #41- The lefty 'greens' (algores) did try to create a better world...for their wallets/ friends/bank accounts...they could not give a RIP about the average man...Wealthy greens leave a much larger footprint than you or i ever could. ..Hypocrisy is their hallmark.
    They say outrageous things ( NY under water, polar bears dying, etc,etc) to create panic/worry.
    Thank allah, those days are gone. God Emperor has already taken down barrys MMGW propaganda page on the WH website.

    Hopefully battery tech will grow...I bought a 2 stroke motor and put it on a mountain bike frame. It is too noisy and attracts too much attention...Want a battery assisted bike...Saw some amazing bikes on youtube but were way too heavy...think DC bikes are the future.

    Edit- also, it is so cold here for 3-4 months of the year, batts don't perform near as well as more temperate areas.

    Yeah, sure they did. If 97% of the surgeons said you needed your appendix out, would you be a denialist about that too?

    Climate change denialism is the newest conspiracy theory I've heard of and is fairly unique. "We don't believe you because it might cost us money!" That's so very weird.

    The bama admin would have had us believe there was a MMGW issue...The Trump admin says there isn't.
    Who controls the media- left or right
    Left it is.
    Poor polar bears- like nature hasn't taken care of animals in a changing environment...yes they die...dinosaurs anyone

    Old guy up the road from me's got an old pushbike with a motor of some kind on it- think it's '60s vintage. Only reason I know that is 'cos I saw him riding up the hill past my front window one day and his legs weren't moving. Thought it was black magic at first.
