Germany shut down all of their coal-fired electricity plants and many of their nuclear plants as well. As they rely more and more on UNsustainable wind and solar, their power bills are soaring also. Many residents use almost HALF their monthly income on electricity.
Idiots.

The good news is, in 2030, many of us will be around to remind her of her stupidity.

The “excess” carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, is plant food, and as such, expands and enriches the opportunities for more rapid plant growth. The “excess” heat is radiated off every night by the actions of the earth turning away from the “hot” side, exposed to the sun, and allowing the heat to be re-radiated from the “cold” side, away from the intense rays of the sun. And along with this heat energy, any little bit of “excess” heat produced by the efforts of mankind are radiated away as well

The heat from man's activities are trivial, about 20 TW. The sun's power is 80,000 TW and you are right that it is radiated away day and night. The power from manmade CO2 (280 ppm to 410 ppm) about 900 TW. Realitistically a doubling of CO2 will produce 2,000 TW The average hurricane dissipates 600 TW (more than that for a major hurricane), part of the 40,000 TW from latent heat transfer. Small changes in the water cycle changes the latent heat number and results in global warming and global cooling. That's up to 0.2C in a matter of weeks in conjunction with ocean heat exchanges.

In short the natural effects on global temperature are far more significant than the manmade effects.

And they don’t mention the sun or how about supernatural forces intentionally manipulating the sun to cause chaos here on earth, which would give them their one world order.. out of the ashes. Yeah I know wow what a conspiracy theorist I am.. red flag the guy. I know I need to be a good little serf like that guy in the sprint commercials and be happy in the matrix and shut up and follow their agenda and give up the desire for God and fteedom. I try to sometimes but I just cant ever let it go.

I’m not quite following you here. What do you mean power “from” CO2? You mean the power that is prevented from radiating into space by the existence of CO2? I’m not arguing, just trying to understand. Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Yes, the added radiated power from the atmosphere to the earth’s surface due to extra CO2 molecules. They often give the number in W/m2 and I just multiply by the earth’s surface area to get a number that allows easier comparisons (e.g. to weather events like hurricanes).

Screw the krauts. They are still on a kind of global probation, aren’t they?

I tried. As one of two cars in a two driver household, the insurance wouldn’t insure as a collectible.

Your “insurance” company won’t let you use a collectible as your daily driver?? I see them on the road all the time. Get a better insurance company.

The laws on collectible registration are pretty strict. The folks who use them as daily drivers likely have more cars than drivers registered in the household. AZ insurance rates are insane across the board.

Yeah, I was going to say, get the a beater or a little motorbike.

I pay like $600/yr including towing, etc (like $3 or something so a way better deal than AAA)

Remind me to use two straws with my large soda next time I go to Whataburger in my SUV.

And leave the engine running outside while you enjoy your meal. Watch some leftists squirm.
