Mountains of glass and pools of plastic? : Comments

By Ken Calvert, published 8/11/2021

The western world is being pressurised to reduce its use of disposable plastic at the same time as our news media tell us that 90% of the plastic in the sea comes out of 10 rivers in Asia and Africa.

Can somebody please explain why CO2 would keep heat in, at 420 PPM, but not keep heat out?
It would also be appreciated if somebody could explain how CO2 at 420 PPM can keep heat in; it seems to me to be like trying to retain heat with a net?
I would also love to know whether or not CO2 is evenly spread through our atmosphere or does it hang over the polluters, and how sea levels in the Pacific can be effected by glaciers melting in the Arctic, but the sea levels around Australia are not effected.

That is what puzzled the clever people at the Coastal Institute at
Auckland Uni. They found the Islands were not drowning after all.
Could somebody be lying ? Surely not !
Isn't demanding money falsely a criminal offense ?
Wouldn't saying we will turn up on your doorstep if you do not pay.
Demanding with menaces ?

Isn't saying shut down your coal power stations or we will tax you
and/or put import duties on your exports, also demanding money with menaces.

I can see that the move to "renewable" energy will keep going on its
present path, ie more solar cell, more wind farms and more batteries
for backup.
What WILL happen blackouts will become more frequent and a panic
program to install more solar cells, wind turbines and batteries
will be undertaken, making China rich and us poor until the penny drops;

We cannot afford this, we are trying to beat a formula with an expotential component.
As the geographical area of the grid renewables becomes smaller the
amount of renewables needed increases exponentially.

None of these clowns threatening to not buy from us buy any of our products from the goodness of their heart, if they have one.

They buy from us because our quality is high, our priced are good, we are a reliable supplier, & they have a real need for what we are selling. Right now the UK & Germany are wishing they had been smart to buy a couple of very big heaps of our coal.

China stopped deliveries of our coal in an attempt to punish us. Not only did they punish themselves with power supply disruptions, but they are having to buy lots of our coal, through intermediary at a much higher price.

If Morrison can hold his nerve, we will have most of these clowns fighting over our coal in the very near future. With their new war on meat, it won't be long before they are begging us for that too.
