New City Grower 2.0

That show is Ok, and Neil deGrasse Tyson is a pretty cool dude.
He does kinda come off like he's talking down to smaller minds tho.
And maybe he is haha.

I do watch every episode myself, but haven't checked out the new one yet.

Nice plant BAR. I see nothing wrong with it. I see you like to use the fire escape. I'd be to paranoid to do that but nice to give the lady's natural light.

The new Cosmos series ended last night with the season finale. It is on a few other times on other channels during the week, but it was the last one. I think Neil Tyson is genuinely down to earth and has a passionate compassion for the planet and its creatures (including us). If he appears like he is talking down, so be it and like you said, maybe he is. Definitely he is talking to the dullards who do not believe the climate is changing and they deny the CO2 in the air is not at record levels and greenhouse gases are increasing...bla, bla. I also think really brilliant people are not socially graceful in most cases. It's not a flaw or shortcoming, just a matter of how his and others' minds function socially.

The episode last night ended with a really interesting computer generated version of what a city would look like if we stopped in our tracks today and went with solar and wind energy and weaned totally off fossil fuels. It would be green as all hell loaded with oxygen because we'd lower the CO2 in the atmosphere, which will cool the earth properly, and not turn into an inferno like Venus did when the same thing happened to them. Only on Venus, the atmosphere is responsible, not humanity.

He said that the sun generates enough energy in one hour to supply the entire planet with electricity, food, and water. If they build solar collectors in Saudi Arabia in the desert they can drill for water and turn the desert into a forest! Certainly, they'd be able to plant trees and other things which will help balance the CO2 and Oxygen molecules.

Sorry to go on and on here Reggie. I'm so bored and waiting for Mark to get here. I am also very dizzy since I woke up this morning. I wonder what that's about. Any ideas floating around? Any medics in here?

idk like I said I watch every episode. He's not a bad person, or anything. I just noticed he looks into the camera like he can't believe you don't know this stuff already. haha. Thing is I do know most of it tho. Also the use of cartoons, and effects kinda make it like a kids show. Not that I don't like cartoons, and Sci-Fi. Just kinda comes off like that to me. Sounds like a good episode tho.

I take many issues with on your opinion on global warming. I know you were taught this and it has been ingrained in your thought process through television just like most people. Thankfully a lot of people more and more each year are waking up to this manmade global warming hoax. First off the sun warms and cools in phases and it has been in a cooling phase since the 90's but lets not even touch on that because this will be a quick defeat of your argument and since this is in a journal and I will be covering this amongst many other issues in the off topic forums.

Many government funded scientists concur with this manmade global warming theory simply to receive a piece of that taxpayer money where independent peer review shows manmade global warming simply not to be so. co2 levels in prehistoric times were a lot higher then they are now. We see as gardenrs that we are well aware of co2 levels being 400 ppm in the environment. We as gardeners who can afford to ADD co2 and not take it away from our gardens. Osha own standards show co2 levels have to be 5000 ppm for a person to even receive a severe headache from it. If we have to supplement co2 then its very obvious we are at a co2 deficit.

The global warming scam has stopped working on many people and so now the term is climate change. Think of how silly of a term this is. This is equivilent to the police resisting arrest. Its a catchall. If the climate isnt warming but it is cooling that still is climate change. The climate will never stay the same. I agree that we should better protect the earth by recycling and industries to use pollution scrubbers but that already takes place in the usa yet in china that doesnt exist.

The funny and ironic part of this is that when a ship of scientists were to study global warming effects they got stuck in ice and had to be rescued by a icebreaker ship that also got stuck in the same ice. So a 3rd ship came to their rescue and freed them.

Anyways, thats all im going to say about this here. I do agree I like cosmos but it is full of propaganda and if you already know and understand it is easy to disregard propaganda. When I create that topic in the off topic forums we can discuss it there and there I will back up everything I have stated and more. Feel free to go there. I will update with the link in my signature when its available. Before then I am going to attack gmos and aspartame or the "Diet" is better craze that is false. Take care everyone, BAR.

 

[SmokerJoe]

Just being self deprecating to relieve stress.... My LEOs round here have drones now.... what f..ing world is this!

Yes and lots of police forces are getting bearcats(tanks) Why could that be I wonder?

 

[toker69]

Global warming is the current and future climatological effects under human influence.

Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years.

Close to the same thing but not exactly.

Who's funding the "independent peer review?" haha

You mean the jokers working for the oil companies?

Global warming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

[SmokerJoe]

No it mean scientists who reject government funding in order to promote the truth over greed. I have read that wikipedia entry so many times when one wants to debate me on global warming. The problem with wikipedia is anyone can put in any entry on anything. If the government did actually care as many global warming alarmists suggest merely by going on their side then wouldnt they care more about deforestation and the solution of fields of hemp that take 1 single summer to grow over acres of tress that take hundreds of years to grow. It all boils down to greed and lobbyists really. But im really not trying to go all out here and instead will substantiate everything I have said in a proper forum. If I addressed everything here then that forum would be a rehash but I did write this to reply to you so you didnt feel I was ignoring you or that I didnt have a retort. Anyways, looking forward to your participation when the thread goes up. I may forego the gmo and aspartame and cover global warming before the other topics. Take care

If the scientists say the earth is getting warmer I'd tend to believe it. If they measure the gasses in the air and CO2 is higher than in the past, I'd tend to believe it; it's the why and the what to do about it; there's the rub! replay on natgeo channel. 9pm HD channel 726 out here.

 

[toker69]

I really posted that link for others who might want more info.
I kinda can already see nobody's changing your mind.

Funding comes from somewhere friend.

Unless they have a lab in Moms basement.

 

[jaamzhow]

Hey, I dig global warming man. Less cold, less oil to heat house; and good for the plants which will scrub the co2 out of the air; we just keep on keeping on, the earth will take of us itself.

 

[Dennise]

I'm just glad I am old enough to know better than to believe a single word of what we are being told and won't be here long enough to see what is going to become of all of this. I do however worry and feel terribly sorry for my grandchildren and beyond .... if there is a beyond......

 

[jaamzhow]

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind.

 

[Green Closet]

I agree dennise.. regardless of whether global warming or climate change are actually real. Anyone can look at photos of LAND ice over the past several decades and clearly see that its disappearing.. The sea level continues to rise because of all the ice melting.. Its clearly documented that its rising every year. Joe, you brought up about the ships getting caught in the SEA ice.. yea SEA ice comes back every winter, but LAND ice continues to subside. It may all be a natural pattern thats been set in motion since the ending of the last ice age.. But regardless of the actual cause (CO2 or whatever else) land ice is melting and it isn't coming back.

 

[jaamzhow]

I think IMHO, the only cure for climate change is 3 billion of us have to commit suicide, immediately! Who loves the planet more than yourself; lets go....

[jaamzhow]

My auto strain is getting quite a bud system, looks like she gonna be ready, soonish?

 

[b.real]

don't get your hopes up with "soon" lol.

 

[jaamzhow]

Said soonish! That means nothing, could be tomorrow, or next month, or next year.

LOL... I'm not too worried LB. I'm high enough up and in a neighborhood where it's not really an issue. What does worry me is a catwalker stealing my plants but they put new alarms on the roof doors last summer.

I'd hate for this thread to get shut down & I wasn't even logged in during the convo in question.
