It was the night before Christmas, and all over the land,There were no windmills spinning, not even in the sand.The panel lies quietly, its surface exposed,Because the snow has fallen, blocking the sunlight in the air. The children were lying comfortably on their beds,Meanwhile, images of power outages swirled in their minds.Mom brought a blanket and I wore a hat,Just settled in for a long hibernation. When we got to the lawn, there was a sudden splashing sound.I jumped out of my chair to see what was going on.I flew to the window like lightning,Tear down the blinds and pull…

Transcript: “Rise” clip: “What if this is the beginning/not the beginning of the end?” Massachusetts musician Seth Glier has been processing his thoughts through songwriting since he was a teenager. In recent years, he has thought a lot about climate change. Glier: “So I really just wanted to make an album that was completely focused on solutions to climate change.” Greer's new album, “Everything,” contains songs about reconnecting with nature and growing food. He sings about restoring waterways, maple trees moving north and offshore wind farms. “Wind Witch” excerpt: “Wind Witch/Waving to the water/Staring to spin/Sending a signal to the…
From Manhattan Contrarian Francis Menton My post on Saturday pointed out a big reason for optimism that the green energy fantasy is coming to an end: The first country, Germany, has apparently begun to hit the green energy “wall.” While Germany has never consistently reached 50% of its electricity generation from wind and solar, its ability to continue its green energy dream has stalled: electricity prices have soared, manufacturing has been severely disrupted, the economy has fallen into recession and, most recently, its green-minded government has collapsed . It's an example of failure that now deserves to be seen and…
from NoTricksZone Author: P. Gosselin There is no doubt that Germans and Europeans are much worse off than they have been in a long time. This is due to incompetence, shadowy ideological leadership and global puppet masters. Luckily, their days may soon be numbered, as 2025 brings many rays of hope. Merry Christmas! Photo credit: P. Gosselin In fact, I find myself longing for the days before COVID-19 when climate change was one of the biggest issues we should be facing. Since then, the situation in Germany has worsened significantly, causing climate concerns to fade away. No one even cares…
“We're going to embrace a star.” from legal riots NASA's groundbreaking spacecraft, the Parker Solar Probe, was launched in 2018 to study the sun's outer corona. It is the fastest object ever built on Earth, capable of reaching speeds of 430,000 mph at its closest approach to the sun… in order to avoid being pulled by its massive gravity. The spacecraft performed better than expected and will now make its closest approach to the sun on Christmas Eve. The Parker Solar Probe will fly 6.1 million kilometers from the sun at 6:53 a.m. Eastern Time on December 24, the closest…

From the Daily Skeptic Chris Morrison A number of recent scientific papers have published dramatic evidence that carbon dioxide levels are already “saturated,” meaning that no or little further warming is expected and carbon dioxide concentrations will rise.2 levels are beneficial. Half of human emissions are being pushed rapidly back into the biosphere, causing massive plant growth that could eliminate famine, while the rest enters a “saturated” atmosphere with minimal impact on global temperatures, scientists say. One of the papers acknowledging human involvement in rising carbon dioxide2 Published by CO2 “We love carbon dioxide,” the alliance said2and so should you.…
Google, Salesforce and several other technology companies have announced an $80 million investment in carbon capture technology aimed at retrofitting industrial facilities such as paper mills and wastewater treatment plants. The move was pitched as a forward-thinking solution to the climate problem, but given the complexity and uncertainty of the problem, it looks more like a costly foray into the latest corporate trend than an answer to any clearly defined problem. Meaningful response. What's the plan? Funds are allocated to two projects: All personnel: A startup focused on capturing carbon dioxide emissions from wastewater treatment facilities. Carbon dioxide 80: A…
