  1. Here's something for the idiots of Renewable Energy: Sooner or later you greenies are going to need to grow up and learn how economies work. - hint government people understand nothing of economies other than how to rape them. These G-morons decided "woke' power (power that doesn't really work) was a great idea for them, not us, so they decided to steal some money from some ratepayers in order to pay others to stimulate the growth or power that really doesn't work - ie wind and solar. In the real world, the one that really works, there is something called supply and demand and these things regulate the price of everything fairly. Your butcher buys his beef by the side and pays more for it than the meat packing plant did who in turn paid more for steer than it cost the rancher to produce it. Get it so far? Now when you buy that beefsteak at the butcher's shop he's going to get his markup as well, so you as the end consumer are going to have to pay a lot more for it per pound than the rancher was paid for it. Next time you want a beefsteak drive out to a ranch and buy your steer on the hoof - then you slaughter it, age it carve it up sell the inedible parts to dogfood processors and the like and eat the rest of it on the cheap - no you want the value that all those who added value to the meat along the whole length of the supply chain don't you? Or do you buy your steaks on the hoof? Or do you expect to pay the ranchers price at your favorite steakhouse as well? It's that way with electricity too, you cannot expect the power company to buy power back from you at retail rates when they don't even need or want the power. With that business model they will go bankrupt as soon as their investors are wiped out. If that rancher were to dine out at your favorite steakhouse why not demand that your ignorant politicians make the restaurant buy his on-the-hoof steer from him on demand at the same rate per pound that they charge you for a 16 oz prime rib? The problem is, as with all government planned economies, sooner or later everyone will want to receive the grift instead of paying for it, when that happens the lights go out - permanently. The most ignorant feature of all of this is that it is supposed to solve some problem that the grifters dreamed up but that does not actually exist so solar panels and wind turbines only create huge problems, they solve nothing - time to wake up you dizzy Californians.

  9.  @paulfri1569  Context: New Zealand I just came from another video thread where the Kiwis were bragging about their geothermal. Such feel-good foolishness. 'scuse my french, but has anyone considered how much "decarbonization" is actually taking place? In terms of percentages? And please spare me the "it'll make a difference in the long run" cr*p. This is a fad that people will get tired of. There are plenty of ruins from this fad from the70s.

  10.  @paulfri1569  Suppose we could switch all electricity generation to nuclear overnight. Would that make any difference in co2? How long would it take to show up? How much effect would it have besides feel-goodery for these dopamine addicts?

  12. Doesn't this show what a stupid boondoggle solar energy is? Putting them on your roof is one thing, but taking up useful land with something that can be produced at a fraction of the "footprint" is plain stupid. BTW: There Is No Global Warming. Here is John Robson, Climate Discussion Network, talking about the latest from the IPCC charlatans and their total misunderstanding of the scientific method: https://youtu.be/n6VM41-v2gg

  13.  @Big_If_True  Is that plant - as in vegetable? "Vegetable" is my estimation of the intelligence of the climate-quack koolaid drinkers. There Is No Warming. (See the latest IPCC report, "troposphere satellite data" if you want to sound smart.)

  15.  @TheWineroute  Is your comment pro-or anti-Climate Quackery? We've had mass climate stupidity since the 70s, starting with that stupid Ozone Depletion: Look at the screwing we're all getting because of the EPA and its ozone depletion cr*p! The Nonsense That is Ozone-Depletion "Holes" in the ozone argument: 1) Freon is heavier than air: how do molecules heavier than air get to 30,000 feet (the beginning of the stratosphere)? 2) The "hole" in the ozone over the South Pole was "discovered" by satellites in the '80: if it was just "discovered", how do we know IT WASN'T THERE ALL ALONG ? ? ? ? 3) There is a perfectly logical reason why there is less ozone over the polar regions: THERE IS LESS SUNLIGHT THERE TO PRODUCE OZONE IN THE FIRST PLACE, especially in winter ("land of the midnight sun...") 4) Antarctica (South Pole) has the highest average elevation of any continent (8000 ft): Does that have any effect on ozone quantity????? (The North Pole is all at sea level and there is no ozone "hole" there. (Why not?) 5) The offending atom is CHLORINE (very common), not CFCs themselves. The argument goes that the CFCs carry CHLORINE up to the stratosphere. There are other compounds of chlorine in the atmosphere -- that's one of the things you smell when you go to the beach --> "salt water" --> i.e. sodium-chloride. Is the ocean a source of "ozone depleting" chlorine compounds? 6) Most basic of all, ozone (O3) is an EFFECT of UV blockage, not a cause. [O3 is an unstable molecule that needs a lot of energy to produce, e.g. the ozone you smell around arcing engines. There is less ozone at the poles b/c there is less UV to generate it (just like there is less sunlight to keep the place warm in the first place. I hope the public is beginning to see how dubious this ozone scam is. Monstrous mistakes like this DO happen - think the ban on DDT and malaria deaths. The Ozone Scam https://youtu.be/9Szs-treHwQ The Nonsense That is Ozone-Depletion https://www.ourcivilisation.com/ozone/king.htm+ Look how we've been "had" by this "ozone depletion" scam: In other words, CFCs probably have NOTHING to do with Antarctic ozone: https://youtu.be/lBu3vltczRw In other words, the× Montreal Protocol is a complete fraud: Min 0:30: "Measurement of SURFACE 'ozone depleting substances' (chlorine? are you measuring ALL atmospheric chlorine compounds?). https://youtu.be/uVeTJSIbGm8 1987 - Montreal Protocol. Remember that date in this music-tracked piece of manipulative propaganda. Listen for the weasel words and disclaimers. https://youtu.be/Ll_TR7C4xr4 The Ozone hole is "healing" (scientific term). Can't you tell?: https://youtu.be/taTzqRHNIEc A discussion of atmospheric chlorine: https://api.nationalgeographic.com/distribution/public/amp/news/2010/3/100310-sea-spray-ocean-colorado-pollution Natural Chlorine? You Bet! (American Chemistry Counsel) "Many of these chemicals are identical to highly publicized manmade organochlorines: chlorophenols, chlorinated hydrocarbons, PCBs, CFCs and dioxins." https://chlorine.americanchemistry.com/Background-Natural-chlorine-You-bet-/ Min 7:50 "In the old days, capacitors used to last 10-20 years" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGEduZ3EVcg 7) Min 2:00 Listen carefully: in other words, the ozone hole has been there since AT LEAST the 50s, before CFCs were widely used. Min 15:00 "interesting scientifically" - must be fun to have these kinds of research grants and boondoggles. Great work if you can get it. https://youtu.be/AU0eNa4GrgU How EPA is screwing up your car's air conditioning. https://youtu.be/wm56tV5BbJk Lousy car air conditioning: https://youtu.be/5jKRiDtcBrs Guy says we should use explosive propane as refrigerant https://youtu.be/pv_fxOuLuZU Propane as a refregerant https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXyHOfx307k . Why The Banning Of Chlorofluorocarbons Is Paranoia https://www.ourcivilisation.com/ozone/index.htm Min 6:00 -- two different kinds of chlorine... (yeah, right) https://youtu.be/kmfAM8kQrjU The stupid claim the ozone layer is "healing" ("healing" - is that a scientific term?) Notice that the "hole" always goes away in Antarctic summer (more sunlight/more ozone produced) and reappears in Antarctic winter (no sunlight/no ozone produced (ozone is an unstable molecule to begin with)). We've been sold a load of cr*p that has made a hideous mess of the AC industry. You'll see no change in hole size in the Antarctic winter, which means the "hole" has been there all along and is a perfectly natural and harmless phenomenon. "Oh well, we trashed an entire industry over a quack-science hoax... Sorry about that..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyGoqC9FTFc https://youtu.be/krqHVzF3-T8 Min 21:00: A brief history of refrigerants R12, R22, R410a and the screwing we get from the EPA, the "Montreal Protocol" (a self-appointed bureaucracy still alive and well) over their ozone depletion quackery. The doubling of pressures from R12 to R22, and the DOUBLING AGAIN from R22 to R 410a, AND R22 wasn't even banned for ozone depletion! (100x less "odp" from R12). It was banned for "global warming" quackery. https://youtu.be/V_wUZ4qmAnk Min 36:00 Can be charged up to $30 a pound to destroy "contaminated" R22: https://youtu.be/V_wUZ4qmAnk Min 7:00 "pre-EPA refrigerants operated at low pressure and only soldered (not brazed) pipe joints. https://youtu.be/G0XOLDHGBmU Min 18:00 all refrigerants turn into acid when in contact with water (! ! !): https://youtu.be/kmfAM8kQrjU Refrigerants decompose in water ! ! ! https://www.answers.com/Q/What_happens_when_refrigerant_hydrolyzes_with_water What is hydrolysis? https://youtu.be/G_mT9JI_jxE What about the ozone hole and R-12 refrigerants? https://creationtoday.org/what-about-the-ozone-hole-and-r-12-refrigerants/ Also forgotten is a long list of truly ridiculous claims, such as the one from Al Gore's 1992 book "Earth in the Balance"that, thanks to the Antarctic ozone hole, "hunters now report finding blind rabbits; fisherman catch blind salmon." https://www.heritage.org/environment/commentary/ozone-the-hole-truth Minute 22:00 refrigerants disassociate in water, so why sre they a problem in the stratosphere? https://youtu.be/5SpOiHB6VsE 15% of chlorine in stratosphere is natural, according to this: https://csl.noaa.gov/assessments/ozone/1998/faq3.html Another comment I submit to The Order is about "NOISE", namely, - NOISE is a bad thing -- we don't want that in our houses. - Don't compressors that are forced to operate at higher pressures make more NOISE than compressors that operate at much lower pressures? - Assuming the answer to the above is "yes", then would a compressor that has to operate at 450 psi (for that stupid R-410A refrigerant -- 'scuse my french) vs. 150 psi for R-12 (the industry standard till that stupid EPA came along -- 'scuse my french again). - Here is a PT graph for the major refrigerants: https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/refrigerant-temperature-pressure-chart-d_1683.html - Conclusion: the stupid EPA and DOE have not only made AC equipment more expensive to buy and more expensive to maintain and less effective in terms of cooling (window ACs) -- they have also made them NOISIER. ... Thank you, tax-paid idiots of environmentalism and quackery that is "ozone depletion" (the warmup act for "global warming" -- "Hey Texas -- how's that renewable energy/global warming/windmill thing working out????") Thank you Boomer generation (mine) for the 60s mess you have made of America. Cheers. PS: here's a video about a stupid 90% furnace whose condensation overflowed the week before Christmas and trashed multiple ceilings in the guy's house. Of course, those stupid DOE bureaucrats will be there bright and early to fix the damage. "Happy Holidays!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnVtRqfqoSY&ab_channel=AntiDIYHVAC ... And another video about a screw-up with the INDUCER fan --> a creature of "high efficiency" DOE regulations which dictate the squeezing all so much heat out the combustion, a separate fan needed to get the exhaust gasses out the flu. Then they break down and screw up the whole system. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZJ1GPAATGY&t=370s&ab_channel=VintageVideos2009 90% furnaces: "Required". Required by whom? Are these ultra-complicated and expensive machines cost effective over their total life???? Or is this another expensive, pointless dictate from bureaucratic petty tyrants making life more difficult for everyone? (All I hear about these are those paper-thin heat exchangers rusting through, fans not working, cramped working conditions, more problems with water condensate damage and EXPENSIVE EXPENSIVE EXPENSIVE REPAIRS!!!) PS: am big fan of your channel, but have total disgust for the hideous things government has done to this industry. ** What is ppm concentration of ozone in the stratosphere? Answer: The peak concentration of ozone occurs at an altitude of roughly 32 kilometers (20 miles) above the surface of the Earth. At that altitude, ozone concentration can be as high as 15 parts per million (0.0015 percent). https://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/facts/SH.html How can a 0.0015% concentration of anything protect us from anything? I.e. ozone is another trivial trace gas like CO2.
