How did ‘Global Warming‘ become such a huge and widely accepted scam?
» Could Al Gore the whore be the main culprit, was it part of his campaign in the run-up towards trying to become the next president of the United States!
» Perhaps the ‘global warming’ campaign began it’s life when the UN was presented with a hockey stick graph by Michael Mann et al in 2001.
» Or maybe the discussion on man-made global warming was made popular by Al Gore’s film, ‘An Inconvenient Truth’.
Al Gore bases his whole argument of global warming on one all important piece of evidence taken from ice-core surveys, where scientists drill deep into the ice to look back into Earth’s climate history. The first findings of the drill expedition in Vostock revealed as Al Gore correctly points out is the clear correlation between carbon dioxide and temperature. However his correlation is topsy-turvy to say the least.

What…
So what is carbon-free energy. Let’s begin by explaining some common applications; wind turbines, wave energy, reservoirs, hydrogen fuel, solar farms, carbon-neutral energy carriers such as ethanol or bio-diesel, and even nuclear power. These are just some examples of carbon-free renewable energy. The purpose of all these methods is to combat the increase in greenhouse gas emissions and reduce our impact on the environment as a whole.
Coal plants are another candidate for the accolade of ‘carbon-free renewable energy’. However coal plants that sequester their carbon end up having the biggest carbon footprint, mostly because not all the carbon-dioxide gets captured before it enters the atmosphere. Nuclear power turns out to be the second-most carbon intensive.
There is a multitude of umbrella terms and pubic relations terms being used to promote the wonderful world of ‘carbon-free renewable energy’. One such umbrella term is ‘clean coal‘. Now if ever there was a funny oxymoron term, then ‘clean coal’ has to take the prize.
Other ridiculous oxymoron’s include; United Nations, virtual reality, clearly misunderstood, found missing, Microsoft works, and political promise to name but a few.

Iraq may seem the central focus regarding the farcical ‘war on terror’ meme. However, Iraq happens to be one of the oldest cultures in the world. It is a place rich in heritage, the Garden of Eden and the Tower of Babel are said to have been sited in this ancient land. Not to mention ancient Mesopotamia (pre-Iraq) also gave us writing and the wheel.
There is however another quite remarkable device which dates back over 2,000 years; the Baghdad Battery. This device may have been used as a galvanic cell, perhaps used for electroplating objects and garnishing them with a gold or silver layer. The amazing part, if the battery was used for this purpose then it pre-dates Alessandro Volta’s 1800 invention of the electrochemical cell by more than a millennium.

Think Outside the Box: -
Our children are the generation of tomorrow. For this simple reason we must nurture, educate, and pamper to their every need.
A bored child can be brought to life by a simple cardboard box, which a fertile imagination can turn into anything from a den to a spaceship. Before you recycle the box, let your child have endless hours of fun with a simple cardboard box and some paint. Of course, this simple concept can be used for most household items which we throw away without even thinking twice about (milk cartons, cereal boxes, etc). You get the idea.

Go Green, Less is More: -
It requires much more land, water and energy to extract food from animals, than from vegetables. For example, in the USA it takes 140 litres of water to produce one kilogram of wheat, but a whopping 4,400 litres of water to produce a kilogram of beef.

As part of the ‘Free Energy Friday’ series of posts, here is a fantastic concept brought to you by Marieke Staps; The Soil Lamp.
The idea is simple, the lamp has copper strips coming out of the bottom of it and it uses the soil as an electrolyte to power the LED light. All that is required in order to light your humble dwellings is the occasional sprinkling of water on the mud to keep the light shining bright.
