But there is nothing wrong with continuing with coal and gas as an energy provider even over nuclear as the Co2 produced from the former is the life saving requirement for Planet Earth. Concentrating on reducing the only source of carbon for all things organic is tantamount to ruination. It's amazing how ill informed people are in believing that such a trace gas as Co2 is responsible for controlling our climate.
That is completely insane!!!
For starters it's hardly a greenhouse gas in comparison to water vapour!!! Not only that but Co2 can hardly get off the ground it is so heavy and the higher you go in the atmosphere the less there is of it!
Plus if you wish to see the beneficial effects of Co2 you only need to look at the much more luxuriant vegetation along the sides of main roads!
It's not less Co2 needed but more if we wish to feed an increasing population but not only that but to continue greening the Planet.
Going nuclear won't do that and neither will continuing with the solar and wind alternatives.
How in God's name can you associate solar and wind generated energy as being green power, when in fact it greens nothing!!! If it doesn't produce Co2 then it's not 'Green'!!!
Is there anyone out there with a brain or two!!!
It appears not, well certainly among many of our dopey, if not ill informed politicians, who haven't half a brain! But that the type that tend to venture into politics! The no brainers!
