pig gas is methane. methane is a green house gas. burnng natural gas creates co2. How does that cut CO2 emissions? Do you have a link to this pig farm? http://www.qc.ec.gc.ca/dpe/Anglais/dpe_main_en.asp?innov_fiche_200409a Here it is. Off course, you have to consider that even if gaz is burned and release CO2 emmission in the process, their energy requirement will be lowered. Thu, even if some s
Then, we have to decide what we would do about it. Even if we removed every car off the road, it would make a trivial impact on worldwide CO2. Humans only produce 14% of the CO2 that goes into the air each year. And CO2 only accounts for a couple % of the green house effect. (this data is available on the global warming advocate websites btw, they don't dispute these facts). 1) that is why we should not restrict our efforts to road 2) That is true
So I'll say the obvious - no, I don't think it's "perfectly possible" to collect CO2 from pigs, chickens, and cattle. Have you ever been to a farm? Or a factory farm? It doesn't sound like it. I'm sorry, but they *have* created a pig farm where there is minimal CO2 emmission. They turn gaz and liquid wastes into natural gaz used to warm the farm itself. QED. I think you only visited backward farms Draginol. You've declared that it's impossible
Iraqi Kurds are rebuilding Kurdistan, love Americans. And providing shelter to the Kurd rebels who is attacking Turkey
I find the people who deniers to be as much dogmatic in their arguments as the peoples who says global warming exists. I find it utterly irrelevant to wether decide if Global Warming exists or not. It is not a topic to debate to us, since we are not specialist (whatever Paladin77 is trying to shovel us). On the other hand, we could debate wether the application of measures - lights or hard ones - is something we desire on the long term. Global Warming issue aside, do we want a
there is an entire continent that is off limits to development i call it Antarctica. on good bases, when you think about it. I mean, who wants a fight over who really owns Antartica?
My entire point in continued investment in oil/coal when there are alternatives we could be investing in, like solar, and wind, is unfortunate, and when the oil does run out, or go from $100 a barrel to $1,000 we are going to have to act much faster then we do now. Well, if people like Paladin77 would stop hammering that global warming does not exists, we could establish a carbon credit market in N. America, and promoting many energy-efficient or de-pol
now tell me how do you mutate the gene pool when it doesn't exist. well, the firsts sparks of life came from the fusions of some proteins, enzyms and other things like that that have formed randomly. Off course, there have been hundreds of "first sparks of life" that died out because they weren't fit to survive. Until one of them got lucky and got all the best combination possible. If God really was behind those "first sparks of life",
I tough the Clausewitz doctrines were obsolete ever since the Vietnam war, where it was proved that a large, massive army is no garantee for victory? Ever since, I though the USA focused their efforts on a small, highly-trained and highly-equiped army, following the Heinlein ideals? (We have yet to see the long-term "sucesses" in Iraq, by the way. Many of the people America now call allies in Iraq aren't kitties, and may eventually turn their coat at the opportune moment.
*A little help for the creationists: evolution, as science understands it, is the OPPOSITE of chance. Whenever you try to make a case for your pet theory of intelligent design or whatever and you use words like "random" to describe evolution, you WILL be wrong, because you are not talking about evolution and any point you might make will not have been about evolution. (well, there is a random factor, is you consider the minor mutation a young member of a
One topic is bugging me, in USA's attitude toward France. Or rather, the American's attitude toward France. (Francais's attitudes toward the USA is also mingboggling, but I'll talk about it later) I do not think, historicaly, that there have been a country that helped more the USA in it's infancy than France. Off course, it was mostly to challenge the British Empire, but still. Some people considered that the USA only helped France during WW1 because it was a payback for their
The opinion of one scientist is quite.. inconsequential. There have been a lot of scientists who denied the validity of Enstein's theory. Still today, there are scientists who still say that the evolution theory is totally erroneous. The question is, do these scientists actually say what they say because they believe it, or to gain political favor from some target audience? There are christian foundation that monatery reward scientists for trying to debuke the evo
First, I would like to present you this nice video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JnxtITOzug Then, simply want to argue a little about it. This is NOT, I repeat, NOT about "Global Warming is True", so please no arguments hammering that it doesn't exist (Paladin77, I'm looking at u). This is rather considering the alternate possibilities of: 1) Acting while Climat Change is real 2) Not acting while it's real 3) Acting while it's false 4) Not acting while i
to the UN Genocide is a silly thing What is silly is thinking countries don'T want to interfere in Darfur because it's somewhat what the americans want.
That must be why none of them are doing a damn thing for Darfur or did anything for Rwanda too! Don't be silly, these countries are simply touchy to military take action if U.N. doesn't order it. And since Sudan is buddy with china...
It is ironic. Even where we "have a coalition" (said with dripping sarcasm), we are still blamed when the money is not there. I'd rather blame Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and other heavyweights NATO member who doesn't seem to want to provide their share in this struggle. On the other hand, any assistance to the USA in Afghanistan is seemed as support to the general USA war effort, which means an indirect support to the Iraqi War, which is
Easy. By continuing with an abyssmally failed foreign policy (Ms. Clinton, for your information, has rubber stamped virtually every foreign policy decision of this administration!), Yup, but on the other hand, Bush so-called "good" foreign policy has alienated the USA at unprecedent level worldwide, even your allies are less sure about following you into new military ventures now. NATO is less eager to send troops along yours. Now forgetting th
But those were extreme circumstances amen to that
all of our smart bombs that we used 85% of them MISSED their targets Yup. you are right, Daniel, the reason USA's military equipment was deficient is because your president didn'T wanted to be impeached. I think you nailed it just right, and you saw trough the lies!
The truth is, cikomyr, I view George W. Bush as one of our worst presidents ever, if not THE worst. I don't view an alternative as acceptable simply because they can't do worse. You're going to have to do better than that! Not my point. I mean, many people here are describing her as the worst thing that can happen to the USA, which IS mindboggling, to say the truth, as they just come out of one of the worst administration to run this country. The worst t
Well, all she needs to do is introduce legislation that basically creates a relationship between the US and EU member nations similar to what the EU member nations already has, and we will have lost national sovereignty. oh, please. I haven't seen 1 EU nation actually loosing their sovereignty. And such agreement would have to be ratified on a scale never seen before by many legislation in the USA. I see a lot of "fear spreading" about Mrs Clin
Good god, do you ever bother to look up anything before you spout off? There are MORE native Americans in the United States than there are Jews in Europe. Congratulation, you cleverly managed to left Israel out of your count, which counts about more than 4 millions jews. Yhea, I take the time to look my numbers before I spout them. You just see what you want to see - as always -.
She may very well be the next president. But she will never get my vote or respect What if she turns out to manage the best administration in the past 40 years that have been in the White House? I mean, I don't say she will, (people over here are expecting her to, but I doubt it's your case). But in case she is, and lead America to a good decenny of prosperity, you will still never have respect for her, despite her accomplishment? (bec
This transition would imply an enermous change for America. What is your opinion? Is it possible? Is it our fault? somewhat your fault. Under the Bush administration, the USD has sunken to lows and is way more volatile than other currencies. But it's more general than that. USA's international market institutions have been so dominant in the 80s and 90s that they started acting in arrogant way, missing to do critical reforms, where euro-cou
As a Christian I do not require anyone to believe as I do, with a few exceptions. Don't murder, don't lie, don't cheat on your spouse, obey the laws of the land (ours in the US are based on the Ten Commandments, although liberals don't want you to know that), don't take other people's stuff, etc., you get the idea. Don't do harm to your neighbor or yourself, is usually a good policy. Teaching people to be nice to each other is one of the reasons they nailed Jesus
