Bill Maher Is A Effin Tool.

Stevie Wonder, who kicked off the show, began with call for unity, but then turned to mock anyone who questioned the global warming theory.



"When love goes into action, it preferences no color of skin, no ethnicity, no religious beliefs, no sexual preferences, and no political persuasions," Mr. Wonder began. "It just loves. As we should begin to love and value our planet."



But after calling for love, he singled out skeptics of man-made climate change for derision.



"Anyone who believes that there is no such thing as global warming must be blind or unintelligent," Mr. Wonder said. "Lord, please save us all."[/quote]

Dr. Hoel, who has just returned, reports the location of hitherto unknown coal deposits on the eastern shores of Advent Bay--deposits of vast extent and superior quality. This is regarded as of first importance, as so far most of the coal mined by the Norwegian companies on those islands has not been of the best quality.

--from the same report Wazzup quoted.



Well, forget coal; 94 years later, we have oil sands and fracking.



Progress.

That is abosolute progress Blurt..



Better we produce, sell and use our own that import it from countries that don't care about the environment or people.

[Blurt]

Word censorship from right-wing loonies is fracking hilarious, in my opinion.

We are going to look back on fracking with horror at our stupidity.

[size=150]'The Nation' Compares Climate Change Deniers to Murderers[/size]

In the wake of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, climate activists have upped their attacks on those who do not accept man-made climate change.



A piece in The Nation said "climate change denialism is literally killing us," while The Outline argued that "climate change denial should be a crime."



The sub-headline of the Nation piece declared that Hurricane Harvey victims "have a murderer - and it's not the storm."



On "Fox & Friends" this morning, climate researcher Roy Spencer pointed out that there has been no increase in the number of major landfalling hurricanes in Florida in the past century, and there has also been no increase in their intensity.

It wasn't prog nutjobs like Blurt protesting in the streets that are reponsible for the phasing out of coal in some parts of the world. It's switching to those  unconventional sources of energy themselves that can take credit for supplanting coal.

Fracking has given America gas prices that are far cheaper than in Europe, created hundreds of thousands if not millions of jobs, and has almost doubled crude production over the last seven years. Some claim it can even take the credit for America's falling greenhouse gas emissions, though recent research suggests that may have may have had more to do with the recession than a switch from polluting coal to cleaner gas.



What most critics point to, of course, are the potential health and environmental impacts. Concerns include contamination of water supplies, seismic activity caused by the fracking itself but mostly by the injection of wastewater deep underground, and fears that the gas glut from fracking threatens to hinder the development of emissions-free renewable sources of power, such as wind and solar. Then there are fears over the venting and flaring of methane, industrialisation of rural areas and noise from lorries.

I've drilled a thousand wells unconventionally. I have some on my farm for Christ sakes. Drilling water wells is more dangerous, but try getting that through the thick skulls of those two lazy, idiotic anti science progtard idiots.

TBO, I don't think our ancestors will care all that much.  Our descendants, on the other hand....



Fra.cking and/or coal seam gas extraction is a political hot potato down here because we have so little water to start with, and farming is largely dependant on supplies from aquifers. It's not just the toxicity question - there are concerns about the effect of fracking on the water table.  The problem is exacerbated because the best fracking locations are generally where the best agricultural land is.    It's not like we have an abundance of rivers or lakes that we can rely on for irrigation. It's a dry country.



I don't know enough about this stuff to know if the risks of fracking are overstated or understated, but there's enough concern about it that some states have banned the practice outright, and other states have moratoriums in place while the risks are assessed.  In some cases, the state has repurchased exploration rights back from the energy companies.

Researchers are looking at options such as purifying the water extracted from gas seams and reinjecting it back into the aquifers, but it's likely to be very expensive.

Fracking has allowed America to become almost completely independent from Mid East oil.  other than the possibility of pulluting some water sources there is no danger.



the left just doesn't want people using fossil fuels.  but their alternatives don't work.

Didn't the fr.acking and waste water injection cause increases in earthquakes in Oklahoma?
