[ Snip ] Are modern services production? Ask a software engineer? That won't help answer the question Ratty! You should understand that? Circular..... reasoning interrupted by a 1 world order isn't conducive to rational thought.

Well whoever would have think it.... One for Ratty's sceptic unfriendly boards. Eco Car Myth -
Eco-friendly vehicles cause more pollution than many 4 X 4’s
A recent study reveals that some of the ‘greenest’ cars will cause more pollution than many gas-guzzling off-roaders. In a list of the worst polluting cars, some so-called environmentally friendly vehicles have been highlighted as not so eco friendly. ....
.....Scientists measured emitted CO2 by a range of cars and then added the extra measurements for the vehicle’s whole-life cycle including creation and depollution energy ratings.
Best-performing vehicle was the Jeep Wrangler off-roader with a whole-life cycle energy cost of just 38p a mile. The Toyota Prius, was listed in 74th place with a whole-life cycle energy rating of £2.03 while the Honda Civic Hybrid, in 73rd place, cost £2.02 per mile and the Lexus RX400h was placed 83rd out of the 96 cars surveyed. www.resqmed.com/eco_car_myth.htm

Commentator probably not a North Dakotan? The vocabulary gives it away.

“Profanity is the effort of a feeble mind attempting to express itself.” When you're down to 4-letter words, you're out of vocabulary.

Jackson!!what are you doing up there!!??
" Teen builds working nuclear fusion reactor in Memphis home
MEMPHIS, Tenn.- Some kids spend their time on social media, other kids spend their time playing video games. When it comes to 14-year-old Jackson Oswalt, his time is spent in a laboratory working on a nuclear fusion reactor.
The Memphis teen finished his reactor and achieved fusion at the age of 13. He’s regarded by experts as the youngest in America – maybe even the world – to accomplish it. Jackson built a steel machine made up of vacuums, pumps and chambers that is capable of smashing atoms together through force in a smoking hot plasma center that releases a burst of fusion energy. If you’ve ever wondered how the sun and other stars are powered, the process within Jackson’s nuclear fusion reactor is comparable.
He began working on the fusion reactor at 12 years old, after concluding that he didn’t want to dedicate his leisure time solely to playing games like Fortnite. He began scouring the Internet for nuclear-related things because that’s what he says held his interest. Yes — at 12 years old." www.foxnews.com/science/teen-builds-working-nuclear-fusion-reactor-in-memphis-home

We arose to the occasion as the occasion arose. Otherwise we'd just be another fossil. Grandpa had a brain that they apparently don't manufacture in New York City representatives anymore. Darn shame. There is evidence, too, that the cooling was to at least some extent man-made. So many people died of disease in the Americas after the arrival of Columbus—fifty-six million, according to the latest research in Quaternary Science Reviews—and so many areas of cleared, cultivated land were abandoned, and thus allowed to reforest, that CO2 levels were measurably reduced and the planet’s temperature lowered.Always wondered how that occurred.

Sir Winston was probably not thinking of climate when he penned ... "Never have so many owed so much to so few". But since he had a sense of irony, he may have appreciated the change of phrase.

Amazing what you can believe when you have no sense of scale and no understanding of the carbon cycle. Repeated crop growth to consume will sequester as much if not more carbon dioxide as trees. So the quiet sun had nothing to do with it or a drop in CO2 caused by the oceans cooling and more CO2 dissolving and becoming carbonic acid due to Henry's law? Oh and for those without a sense of scale the Little Ice Age was not a sharp event - it followed the Medieval Warm Period and the cooling started around the 1300's and extended to the end of the 1800's there are some that say that we are still warming out of the LIA now. So the cooling preceded the CO2 drop ( as it always does at all time scales ) These CO2 control knob people are the one club golfers of climatology
