I would have had to paid taxes if I did nothing.

My real additional out of pocket cost paid for itself in 6 months ๐Ÿ˜

Full benefit of electrification.
- cost. Savings
Electricity-$0. $3,200
Hot water-$0. $. 300
Fuel/oil. $0. $1,600
Heat. $1,400. $. 800
Total $5,900

Capital cost $26,600
Tax saving* $24,000
*net cost. ๐Ÿ’ฒ2,600

Unfortunately the dems suffered a net lost. James may reach brainwashed GOP we lost a successful democrat who contributed significantly against the MAGA morons. Youโ€™re a retired professor. Google โ€˜BBN, RS1โ€™. Powerful statistics module operating on a DEC minicomputer. It saved $millions in mfg.

I consult helping others save $$ installing solar, heat pumps etc
Iโ€™ve reduced my own energy cost by 85%. Not easy living in the snow belt. Reduced my CO2 footprint by 25,000 ibs/yr. Billions need to do effectively the same thing.

Itโ€™s is a crisis of massive proportions๐Ÿ”ฅ How many consider what the environment is like when their grandchildren retire? ๐Ÿ‘Ž. Last year Phoenix hit 120ยฐ F. If this spreads thousands die. India is unlivable by modern standards. Iโ€™ve been there few times. Without AC Iโ€™m dead .

Comments are backed by facts. Thereโ€™s no ambiguity about rising temperatures since 1890. Using a ruler plot where it leads into the future. Temperatures & CO2 were higher in the past but not during human existence. Never before humans lived during current conditions. Imagine living in the future?

I donโ€™t subscribe to words to define reality. The earth is undergoing catastrophic change that will soon result in societal collapse. Temperatures & CO2 are climbing on an accelerated rate.
1890 was the start.
1970 it became real.
Today the affects are severe.
2100 , uninhabitable areas

Perhaps we should use a more catchy phase?

DESTRUCTION OF THE EARTH

APOCALYPSE COMING

HUMAN EXTINCTION

END OF HOLOCENE PERIOD

DEATH BY FIRE

Both Climate Change and Global warming are appropriate.

The rising temperatures due to the insulating effects of CO2 is changing local climates.

The damage to American citizens and our country will be permanent. Partnerships with allies are severed. Countries no longer trust Americans or USA.

If we can vote for๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ’ฉ, twice, who else could be โ€˜electedโ€™ to office in the future.

Is our country now controlled by oligarchs?

As soon as the strike occured oil futures jumped ~15%. Market futures dropped 1%.
As predictable as the tide.
Over past 2 years went green with solar, heat pump & EV.
My cost of energy..$0.

Moved into secured short term annuities until ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ’ฉ is gone.

Iโ€™m a chemical engineer involved in climate change since 1971 when rising temperatures first became statistically significant.
Temperatures & CO2 levels continue rising unabated.
You say nonsenseโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜
The global data says otherwise.
By 2100 predictions are 700 ppm with temperatures + 3ยฐC.

Iโ€™ve gone green with solar, heat pumps & EV reducing my C02 footprint by 12 tons/yr. The real why I did this, save $5,000/yr in energy cost.

CO2 reduction is a side benefit.
This is the only way to foster change. Make it so compelling change is inevitable.

From all reports Chinaโ€™s emissions represent 1/3 of all CO2 emissions. They remain in the atmosphere for thousands of years. Today CO2 is 430 ppm & rising. 3 million years ago is when this last occurred. Prior to 1870 CO2 was 275 ppm.
Itโ€™s too late to prevent a thermal runaway scenario .

Read current events and total CO2 emissions .

Say what you like about โ€˜how greenโ€™ China has become but the fact is they have the dirtiest air and water exceeded only by India.

Until they stop burning gasoline and coal China will remain a global problem.

๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ’ฉis now by definition a war criminal.

Without permission from Congress , as mandated by the US constitution, heโ€™s attacked IRAN twice and Venezuela. Heโ€™s removed and killed their leaders .
There are other less published illegal actions against other countries.

China is in the midst of construction over a dozen coal powered plants.
Due to droughts hydro power is shrinking.
China is the #1 emitter of CO2 BY FAR.

They maybe #1 in solar, batteries etc but let make sure we understand how DIRTY their power generation systems truly are.

During the SOTU speech I reflected on the premise the men & woman in office are there to represent our best interests.

Insanity run amok.
Kirk was racist and misogynistic to the core. To deny this is to refute the facts of his past speeches.
He was anti-democratic and believed only his own view of a non inclusive quasi democracy.
