How high will sea levels rise? As much as 80 meters....gulp! USGS Sea Level and Climate http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs2-00/ |

If all the Ice Sheets Melt, the rich get a whole lot richer. Too bad we're not smart enough to relocate our recently obtained moon out to Earth's L1. - Brad Guth |

The humanly forced negative shift of Earth's albedo, by way of one percentage point, is yet another real environment killer. Of course, I've only been saying that for several years, along with my global warming moon that's not exactly helping us to survive upon our 98.5% fluid Earth, as in not one damn freaking bit.

Unlike your somewhat skewed out of context and thus negative going mindset of obvious topic naysayism, whereas instead I'd only intend to moderate our existing lunar tides, perhaps down to the dull roar of imposing as little as an 1/16th as much as we're currently having to deal with, thus making the combined solar+moon aligned tide worth perhaps 1.125 ~ 1.25 again as much as our solar forced tide currently represents. Therefore, with our moon nicely situated at Earth L1, our wet environment still has a nifty 24 hour tide, and we'll also get that terrific little spot of solar isolation as a badly needed bonus of shade. Obviously you and many others of your kind have complex issues that are opposed to salvaging our environment, whereas I have all sorts of well proven and established forms of renewable energy, and otherwise of better internal combustion that offers zero NOx, plus I have more than a few off-world alternatives that are only made naysay taboo/nondisclosure rated because of folks like yourself that can't think outside or hardly even inside the box. I've slightly revised the following, so that a fresh reader might better grasp onto the core of what this sub-topic consideration of using our moon to shade Earth has to deliver, besides accomplishing less solar influx/insolation and otherwise elliminating the moon's IR shine. There's no question that VL2 POOF City at less than 660 w/m2 is technically 100% doable as is. However, Venus itself is looking better and better all the time. It seems that our wet and otherwise 98.5% fluid Earth is not just a very rare planet, whereas it's also rather dumbfounded about getting summarily global warmed to death by our local mascon/moon, plus having been receiving all the warm and fuzzy GW benefits of humanity running itself amuck. For a little Usenet friendly terrestrial reminder: Total ice melt = 80.32 meters + given a little extra on behalf of a thermal expansion factor and continued but greatly accelerated erosion filling in for perhaps a combined 20% boost. http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs2-00/ Here's an even better global warming test: - can you folks swim and survive upon jellyfish? - Of local planetology and a salty old mascon of a moon that's not going away soon enough, is all about utilizing the best available science and of those better than average educated minds to the maximum extent possible. Or we could keep telling ourselves those same old lies upon lies, and otherwise believing in the tooth fairy after we elect Sponge Bob Square Pants as our next LLPOF president (aka Jewish puppet). With such an educational and science obtainable goal for relocating our moon out to Earth's L1, as such this daunting but otherwise doable task would actually provide many direct environmental benefits, that is if it were not for the ongoing Old Testament faith-based gauntlet of insurmountable naysayism and otherwise mainstream damage-control fornication that's continually in denial of their being in denial, such as our NASA/Apollo wizardly need of their covering thy infomercial spewing moonsuit butts until hell freezes over, which as you know is never going to happen. In addition to all of our human contributed worth of atmospheric deployed soot and a few too many toxic elements, pushing the h2o content of our sooty and CO2 enhanced atmosphere from 100 teratonnes to more than 250 teratonnes, the artificial shifting of Earth's surface albedo in the wrong damn direction is simply going to further expedite the ongoing demise of the lower 99.9% of humanity (that's mostly of us poor folk and/or servitude minions to the rich and powerful), that's obviously still far too snookered and thus easily dumbfounded past the point of no return. Unfortunately, most folks within Usenet have been working their infomercial spewing butts off, in serious overtime at keeping this already bad situation going in the worse possible direction. The humanly forced and clearly negative going shift of Earth's albedo, by way of diving ourselves off the deep end of our subtracting merely one albedo percentage point, is yet another real environment killer to the thermal balance of our Earth that's keeping itself more and more clouded throughout a wetter and stormier nighttime that's only getting rid of perhaps little more than 90% of that extra absorbed insolation worth of energy. Of course, more than a few others and certainly I've only been sharing that deductive interpretation for several years, along with sharing many other honest thoughts about my global warming moon that's not exactly helping us to survive upon our 98.5% fluid Earth, as in not helping one damn bit because of the unavoidable gravity/tidal friction that's continually taking place within and all about our fluid Earth. You see, true geology and thus honest planetology or perhaps even local interstellar cosmology is not about what you or I can see, such as noticing bad weather extremes that's only getting worse, and of ocean risings plus tidal flows that are only accomplishing more collateral damage than good, whereas 98.5% or more of our global environment is essentially fluid to those horrific forces contributed by our pesky mascon/moon and even from those of solar tidal influence, of having been contributing to what goes all the way to the very molten core of this planet that's also in the unfortunate process of losing it's magnetosphere at the impressive rate of -.05%/year (if that factor alone isn't bad enough news, then perhaps nothing is). It seems our very own brown-nosed clowns of spewed conditional physics and skewed science are in fact running us amuck (on behalf of the rich getting a whole lot richer at the demise of most others), whereas this time our supposed best available science (aka junk science of mostly infomercial hyped disinformation) and of their faith-based puppeteers has in fact managed to shoot off both of our two left feet, and then some because, GW is here to stay as long as that terrific mascon of a moon isn't relocated out to Earth's L1. Of course, the likes of our Death Valley at -86 meters, the Great Basin at -105 meters (aka including most of Nevada), and even that of our Grand Canyon would soon enough become massive salt water holding basins, along with incorporating most all of Salt Lake City and multiple other old and dried up salt basins becoming wet and thus albedo dark instead of offering a salty near white and thus solar energy reflective surface. However, the good of what's within GW news being, Venus is looking a whole lot better all the time. At least on Venus there's unlimited renewable energy to burn, sort of speak, and you certainly don't have to buy off those pesky wetland or CO2 credits. Since relocating our moon out to Earth's L1 is not likely to ever happen (because we're simply not smart enough for making it happen, especially if such is going to benefit other than the rich), whereas perhaps my VL2 POOF City should be accomplished before we have even fewer options. - http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/Gl...est/start.html LLPOF Question 3: Global Warming is believed to be caused primarily by: b) orbital eccentricities of Earth and variations in the Sun's output That is correct! (unfortunately, that is actually a well proven lie) Our GW toasty environment that's going somewhat postal is primarily caused by our moon that has only been with us since the last ice age this badly polluted planet will ever see. GW is NOT caused primarily by any 11 year solar cycle and/or that of our elliptical orbit. At best the human factors and solar issues amount to 25% of the total picture, although the way we're going that amount could certainly become forced even higher. Of extra water vapor being sustained within our humanly soot infused atmosphere is in fact a secondary result of the primary GW that's caused by our nearby and fairly massive moon. Going from 100 teratonnes to that of 250+ teratonnes of sustained atmospheric h2o that's extra loaded and/or fortified along with our soot and artificial CO2 is not exactly a good sign, especially when we've also terminated nearly half of the global diatom populations at the same time we're extracting 100 million tonnes of food from our polluted and increasingly dead-zone populated oceans that can't possibly sustain half that amount of trauma unless we extensively clean up our act. Once again, here's that better two-part global warming test question: - can you folks swim and survive upon jellyfish? - - Brad Guth |
