    Maybe. Interesting article. Not sure I buy it but interesting nevertheless.

    I live on this planet also and want to to be as clean as possible.

    We all know Greenland is melting and island will be under water etc, but the Al Gore's movie and other predictions aren't completely truthful. If one looks into those prediction, they are mostly for hundreds of years from now. Thousands in some cases.


    So, my questions has always been the same. What is the solution?

    Funny you mentioned $90k. I worked in a nuclear plant where it cost estimated $90k to change a light bulb. We'd hear jokes about it all the time, even some pointing out over spend. Do you know why it cost $90k to change that bulb. Because that light lit up when spent fuel in the disassembly basin went critical, meaning there were enough neutrons to create a chain reaction. The acute radioactive dose one would receive if they walked into that building would immediately kill them. We had a saying, if you walked into that building and the light went off, bend over and kiss your ass goodbye. The light bulb wasn't there for the people already in the basin, They were already dead. It was to warned anyone else from walking in. There were at least 3 safety systems tied to that bulb. Yes, it cost a shit load of money and worth every penny if you walked by it every day.

    Models predict that Earth will warm between 2 and 6 degrees Celsius in the next century.

    When global warming has happened at various times in the past two million years, it has taken the planet about
    5,000 years to warm 5 degrees.

    The predicted rate of warming for the next century is at least 20 times faster.

    When i came to your world i came to save it. I have given you what is needed to save the human race. I have done this back in 1929 in the form of Twizzlers. If you take them and put them all together it creates a machine that eliminates all the pollutions in the Oceans and the Atmosphere. It will save all of you.

    But instead you all eat the penetrating things.

    Intensifying hurricanes, floods, and heat waves are wreaking havoc across the US—and on everyone’s bank accounts.

    I had a house in Orlando that the homeowners insurance went from $3,000 a year to $16,500 a year. I shit you not. Insurance companies have flew the coop and you can't find insurance companies. I just sold it a couple months ago. The same thing is happening in Texas and California where I have properties as well. These climate events are driving insurance companies out of business. They've had to change their risk numbers because these events are now too common.

    Slew - cleaning the air has ZERO to do with sun rays. We have an OZONE layer that protects us from harmful UV radiation. Clean air, is clean air and would lead to healthier people. Unfortunately, we've polluted the air and it has direct effect on health. Just by living close to a highway put you at a higher health risk. This is not some new revelation. Living near toxic waste sites, high emission coal, gas plants, etc., is just not good for your health.

    There is growing evidence of a distinct set of freshly-emitted air pollutants downwind from major highways, motorways, and freeways that include elevated levels of ultrafine particulates (UFP), black carbon (BC), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and carbon ...

    Small group of Editorial Australians.. You can believe whoever you want so long as it fits your narrative.

    AAP FactCheck Organisational Structure



    Australian Associated Press Ltd is an independent not-for-profit organisation established in 2020 to advance tolerance and understanding by protecting independent, ethical and sustainable news gathering and reporting in Australia. The organisation acquired the former Australian Associated Press Pty Ltd Newswire and FactCheck businesses on August 4, 2020. Australian Associated Press Ltd continues the 85 year legacy of the original Australian Associated Press Pty Ltd and provides media companies and corporations with news and information of public interest.
    As a not-for-profit entity, Australian Associated Press Ltd has no owners or shareholders. It is constituted by a small group of members who have no ownership rights over the organisation. The organisation is governed by a board of elected directors.
    AAP derives income from subscriptions to its news, image and information services. AAP is an independent and non-partisan organisation. AAP accepts philanthropic donations and funding to support the losses of its operations. Donors and funders neither seek nor are granted any influence over editorial operations or the governance of the organisation.
    AAP FactCheck is funded by income earned through fact-checking and the provision of related services, such as training and media literacy campaigns.
    One-off seed funding to establish AAP FactCheck was contributed by Google News Initiative. Google has since supported AAP FactCheck to undertake limited-term projects designed to support democracy and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities. Meta support allowed AAP FactCheck to run several media literacy educational campaigns, while TikTok provided one-off funding for a short media literacy training initiative. ACF support enabled increased environmental fact-checking for a limited time in early 2022.
    It is a strict condition of all projects and partnerships that AAP FactCheck retain full editorial independence.
