Comments for Nuclear Is Obviously Clean Energy | Eastern NC Now

The left constantly tries to claim that anything that does not fit their narrative is a "conspiracy theory". Those scientists who continue to advocate long held climate theories that predate the global warming fad are NOT "conspiracy theorists. They are backing theories that fit the data much better than the CO2 global warming theory.

Yes, there are both consipracy theories and coincidence theories that are bouncing off the wall, but we saw with the recent Durham report that much of what the left has been falsely denouncing as "conspiracy theories" has, in fact, been true all along. We have also seen with Covid that much of what those following the leftwing narrative have been denonucing as "conspiracy theories have turned out to in fact have been true all along.

Upset your Climate Scientoloty religious cult beliefs have I, Little Bobbie?

As has been pointed out many times before, your far left narratives are NOT "the truth" and are far from it. If you want some real scientific information on climate and CO2, the many prominant scientists interfiewed in the British TV documentary "The Great Global Warming Swindle" will straingten you out: www.youtube.com

You parrot the globalist narrative of the cliamte scare perfectly, Big Government Bob, or should I call it the dogma of the Climate Scientology religiious cult.

CO2 is a very minor greenhouse gas. The most important greenhouse gas is water vapor which accounts for over 90% of the greenhouse effect. Most of the new CO2 released into the atmosphere comes from natural processes, not humans. Water vapor is impacted by solar radiation, not something we have any control over.

If you look back in the Earth's climate history, it is clear the CO2 did not cause any of the past multi-century warm periods in Earth's history. There is no rise in CO2 predecing a warm period. CO2 goes up about a century AFTER a warming trend has started. It is a RESULT of warming, not a cause of it.

If you look backward in Earth's climate history, the global warming due to VOs theory does not fit, not even close, to the actual facts.

The Global Warming / Climate Change dogma is driven by politics, not science, although some useful idiot scientists have figured out it is a path to fame and fortune and go along with it. It was an obscure and discredited theory among scientists until Margeret Thatcher dixocvered it and decided it would be useful in her battles against the Marxist coal miners union and against Arab oil sheiks and put UK government money behind it. Since then, the globalist, particularly at the UN have decided it would be politically useful to them and have been pushing it. At its core it is all about politics, not science.

If you want to hear some prominent scientists rip the global warming / climate change theory to shreds, the British TV documentary "The Great Global Warming Swindle" is great.

Here is some Congressional testimony that debunks the claim that wind and solar are "clean":
stopthesethings.com

CO2 is NOT "pollution" or "dirty" It is a gas naturally present in the atmosphere that is not harmful to animal life and is a necessary nutrient for plants. Without it, all plant life would die.

As to real pollution, gas fired power plants have always been clean, and since the scrubbers were required on coal plants, they have been, too.

The so-called "clean coal" technology even almost eliminates the CO2 for those who have their panties in a twist about that. It uses coal gassification, a techonology that goes back almost 200 years. We had a coal gas plant in Washington, NC before the War Between the States which primarily provided gas for lighting in houses and on the streets. It was located on part of the lot where the new police station has been built. New Bern had one, too.

Nuclear is cleaner than wind and solar which generate lots of toxic waste as well as lots of otehr environmental harm. It is also much cheaper. Finland just opened its first big nuclear power plant, and electric rates fell by 70% the next day.
