...biomass that is only viable using waste wood at a lumber yard, definitely not when you ship it half way round the world, the whole thing is a joke a bad joke.
No worse than Shipping coal from China or South America, Gas from Russia ?Paddy_N_Murphy said:

As previously - look at any Weather forecast for the UK, Europe. Out 100miles to sea.
Is it ever still, everywhere at the same time ? No.
There is always wind blowing, in different places as the Low's and Highs pass over - if we have a spread across, you'll always have generation 'somewhere'
But having wind producing somewhere on the continent doesn't help, if it's still on the continent but not here we do not have excess to give away, you would need massive numbers of turbines or one coal fired power station, what makes more sense ?Is it ever still, everywhere at the same time ? No.

Economic sense or other sense!
Generally folks aren't fans of big power stations being built near by, and the infrastructure they demand (trains / motorways) are not cheap.
When was the last coal fired power station built in the U.K?
A coal fired power station could be built on the old Redcar steel site, a deep water berth plus all the coal handling equipment is still there no train,trucks or complaints about the locations, it might actually improve the area
We need a reliable electricity supply, coal provides this over the variability of wind.

Funny, but probably true in some cases here.

“I don’t think it’s too much to ask to see a super hurricane destroying the Southeast U.S. and another one at the same time decimating the Pacific Northwest before I make up my mind about this.”

Nobody is denying that the climate changes, just how much can be attributed to a small change in a trace gas, but if it gives you a chuckle to ignore the fact, please carry on living in your fantasy land.

The Onion said:
Evoking cataclysmic scenes of extreme weather and widespread drought and famine, the nation’s climate change deniers held a press conference Wednesday to describe exactly what the Earth must look like before they will begin to believe in human-induced global warming.

My response was to zygalski who was associating it to PH and the poster's within.
Er, that doesn't change anything.Put simply: if you don't think AGW is real, that article from The Onion is ridiculing you. Oh, and the marches yesterday were protesting against you too.
It may seem obvious to most but some don't seem to realise they're the ones being laughed at here.

For clarity..... NOBODY ON HERE DENIES CLIMATE CHANGE FFS
Some do.But that's beside the point. You deny human caused climate change which is what that video (and the protest) is about.
PRTVR said:
How strange, I would imagine most of the people protesting have little or no idea about the science of AGW, having discussed the subject with quite a few believers it always shocked me how little they actually understand when asked to explain how it works
What a bizarre argument - you could say that about absolutely any field of expertise. I can't say I know much about aerodynamics but I'm happy to accept that planes fly.The question is: why don't you accept the findings of all the people who do know what they're talking about?
PRTVR said:
they are also unwilling to listen to anything that conflicts with their beliefs,even when provided with a logical explanation.
Not serious, surely. Every single objective source agrees with AGW, so how on earth can denying AGW be logical?

The gospel according to Schneider in action ^ ^.
Coolist turned warmist Schneider said:
So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we might have.
Schneider also said:
Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest.
Being objective, the data doesn't agree with agw so faith and simplified dramatic porky pies are needed.Unless durbster or one of the faithful can point us to a visible causal human signal in global climate data. There's more chance of Corbyn being PM.

Blatantly untrue. However I suspect you have a very strange interpretation of the word 'objective'.Edited by sidicks on Sunday 23 April 20:31
