Its June 8th 2022 and everybody is talking about gas .
You do not need to read this if you are panicking about global warming or severe climate change because if you are right , I can't offer any solutions .
This site exists to expose the half baked fears and fancies of the hard boiled pedants who name the problem without really knowing what the problem is, let alone how to solve the problem .
Lets for the sake of argument, lets ignore those who think Global warning and CC are a problem - see note below) _
Gas burning ( combustion ) is not a problem , only the exhaustion of fossil fuel supplies of it .
I'm sticking with one challenge at a time.
Every living space emits gas and the combsustion in all its many forms creates heat Afew weeks ago we we were told we didn't need it and it was just another evil threatening our future if it was burnt.
That suggests those who talk "decarbonising the economy" and not using combustion are half blind and advocating death to the living,
The confusion has got people in a panic about what they can and can't do, partly because GW is attached now to our burning of fuel in the public mind.
The city often now doesn't even allow you to burn wood unless you do it like cars do , burning it inside where no one can see you sinning or criticize you for doing something like that. So much hypocrisy and confusion and plenty of room for hypocrisy because the elements of concern are invisible.
You can't even see the mouths of plants expressing their opinion on all our production of carbon dioxide. some other time if you are interested .
Today , suggesting a moving feast , nearly everybody has come to confession and said "we still need it "vowing to never sin again once the cold is over and we find a way to never burn again . ( combustion is the correct term for a useful necessary and largely untalked about process that will keep going even if we stop burning.
Compounding the problems
1. We have those who think Global warning and CC are a problem. Before they talk, tell me ask why they haven't yet embraced decomposition
as its happening in quite a big way across the landscape right NOW and in the next few months , emitting even worse things than CO2 into the atmosphere .
2, Misplaced concreteness leads to misplaced investment, And I know that ; The above work using biological decomp ( and other sequestration concepts ) has not happened because projects for SW rural Australia that i put up 15 years ago have never been followed up )Universities and agencies have been funded for 20 years to the simple " find way to reduce CO2 emissions" with what result except to corrupt those agencies . And the new government think they are going to root out corruption with another ICAC ,
That how bad and incompetent our political leadership on conservation is , you will notice i am not spelling it out for yet another meddler to mess with the idea and ruin it ( Ellul)
3, Thoroughly lost and confused political arguments
Where is the sequestration on the ground? You wanna be smart tell the earths daily sequestering rate ? The Andrews government are so lost in there rotting old growth forests and against logging that they would rather bushfires ants, termites and fungi consume and produce the CO2 They are happy to close down half of Victoria and let it all rot . This nonsense is all in the name of " i hate logging " or something equally as narrow minded and religious as the magic charm and misanthropic words like " harvesting " listed for more fuller discussion on this blog. The result of
Summary ; the need for more clarity and less pedantry and evil agent labeling
Sorry it's time the press got it right . We are not talking about the evil of burning gas but of the real challenge of living without fossil fuels .
Make sure your noisy worry warriors stick to the subject and don't waver .
We all have a concern tha FFG ( fossil fuel gas) is going to run out and we should be working out ways to avoid relying on it .Instead of working together we have people running in all directions.
Net Zero means what -- same story ---who knows what it means .
If net zero means using gas from decomposition and fuel from recent sequestrations then we might have something to talk about , but so far the assumption is panic and we must stop all burning and harvesting ,
Not very clever country
