It's like going half way to something. After an infinite number of half steps, you still aren't there!

The real issue is, or should be; Man made climate change verses natural climate change.
Man Made is the BS portion.
Blaming and trying to capture CO2 is ludicrous. ABSURD!!!!

As an HVAC Mechanical Engineer, I know the HUGE costs involved, in CO2 capture, as well as how ludicrous it is to put it somewhere to store.

BTW; It would do almost nothing to lower the climate temperature.


What will a can of Coke look like and cost if the fizz escaping all those drinks has to be captured?

They almost did.


That's the point. It's not science, it's a religion. The Church of Climate Change. To disagree or question the 'science' is blasphemy of the highest order. So now you know...

Hey! That's a pretty good question. Clearly there'd have to be some device attached to the opening to catch all the bubbles before they reach the atmosphere and disperse. It would also have to allow the liquid through to the mouth when taking a drink. That's way beyond my pay grade....

Good point. And can I have my aerosol anti-perspirant back now? I understand the ozone layer has been fixed.

Can you imagine how G. Cantor felt, after showing that the number of even numbers equaled the number of odd numbers equaled the number of all integers, (equal to infinity), then finding out that there were more real numbers than that?

He was in an institution for awhile.

There was a young fellow from Trinity
Who took the square root of infinity
But the number of digits
Gave him the fidgets;
He dropped Math and took up Divinity.

Gawd ignores math; he thinks right past it. It's what makes him unbelievable. He is in-numerate!

Cantor never saw Congress do a budget!

Oh, I don't know. I heard that Feynstein said the language God speaks is Calculus. Well, Calculus IS the mathematics of change. God doesn't change, but the time-space-material world does, Hegel, Marx and Lenin notwithstanding.

I was going to say that Depak Chopra sometimes referred to a "God-figure" as a "non-local domain of infinite possibilities", which I guess is a pretty good description.

Gee Marvin think there's more than a finite probability N. Korea or Iran might use a nuke? Using your logic we should obliterate them before they might use a nuke .. Come to think of it you might have something there.

There is no certainty in any of the climate models. But that misses the point. If there is a finite probability of catastrophe, then reason implies that every effort should be made to avoid it. Those opposed to the effort are arguing that the probability is ZERO! They are wrong!

He probably never would have escaped from that institution if he did!

Speaking about that "non-local domain of infinite possibilities"...

I wonder what the "finite probability" of an asteroid hitting the earth and eliminating the dinosaurs so that the new life thus generated could evolve into what we see today? Anyone?

Or the "finite probability" that the cotton gin would have been invented in about the year 1820, pushing back the emancipation of the slaves?

Or the "finite probability" that Joan of Arc could have existed?
