Please define 'REAL science'.
Thanks in advance. |

Anyway, it's not an easily answered question, depending on how deep you want to go. But, I will point out the difference between the peer reviewed science that the IPCC relies on, what I'll call "real" science, and what think tanks do. Real science is where you have a hypothesis, design a way to test the hypothesis, collect data, and interpret the data. Then other scientists review it to hopefully find mistakes. Think tanks (GW think tanks, anyway) don't do this. At best they take real science and twist it or tell half truths; at worst they simply say things that aren't true. Think tanks never do original research, and the article posted is the same thing. They have actual peer reviewed articles that they "discuss" to fit a preconceived end. Now, if they funded legitimate research and allowed it to be peer reviewed and it showed AGW to be false, then I would be interested. That hasn't happened yet. Think tanks trick people into thinking that it is "real" science, because PhD's have their name on it and sometimes they cite sources. Often times the citation is of another "scientific study" that turns out to be another think tank. It's a big merry-go-round of junk.

Oh, almost forgot to ask, how is the energy created by the wind farms stored? Batteries? Generators?

Ninong, what form of "green energy" do you use to power your reef?

Well actually it is. Your definition of charity does not match any that I have seen. Maybe you should look it up in the dictionary. I do feel that way. While it may not be the best form of charity, it still helps. ie, if you give a homeless person money because you feel guilty, it may not be the best reason to give. However that does not change the fact that he/she can use that money to eat or drink. Sorry but if I was starving on the street, I wouldn't care why someone gave me money if it meant I could have something to eat. Also calling a homeless person a "bum" is degrading. |

I have used energy efficient bulbs wherever I can. I try to make all things in the house more efficient. We have only owned it for around 6 months so it takes a while. If I save 20W from my reef tank it is because i have already done the most obvious things to save energy without compromising the health of the inhabitants. 20W might not sound like much, but if I have already saved hunfred of watts elswhere then it may sound a little better. |

This was addressed to Rossini, not you. He said he is 100% dependent on wind supplied energy. The scenario you describe sounds a little dubious.

Anyone crying about global warming that has a reef tank; defines the word hypocrite.

1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs. 2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, esp. one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements. Hope that helps. Maybe some day you might have something useful to say. |
