pompeiimagnus:Sure batts are becoming more cheaper, lighter and more efficient. Oh what's the cost of a Tesla [I] Tesla has ambitious goals for its new Roadster : hit 60 mph in 1.9 seconds and achieve a range of 620 miles. Fittingly, prices will start around $200,000 . The Founders Series, limited to the first 1,000 customers, is priced[/I] Where is the source to charge them? Wind or solar? |

basilico:Many recent models of gasoline cars are very energy efficient, but Electric cars are even better. You need to drive one to get a feel of it. The US still imports oil from Saudi Arabia, so that should be your major question. In fact, the Saudis own the largest refinery here in Texas. Yes, solar panels do generate power even on cloudy days. Wind turbines are even more impressive. Did you see the news about Total bidding heavily for the offshore wind energy project in New York?? Baba, oil and gas is being phased out and everyone has to follow the flow, or be left behind. |

basilico:Definitely, wind and solar are already established technologies. These companies just need favorable government policies to boom. |

pompeiimagnus:You need to go study load flow. If we talk nuclear, I'd go along. Takes years to sustain optimum power distribution.Especially from renewables whose outputs can never Repeat Never be guaranteed. You know how much steel a 1MW wind plant uses. Which has to be mined By the way Add concrete needed that uses gazillions of fossil fuel power to produce. |

pompeiimagnus:Read, they need gov subsidies paid for by tax dollars. Robin Hood type of a situation. |

pompeiimagnus:Forgot to ask you, what is the end goal of reducing fuel emissions? And cow fart? And planes? These add a huge hockey stick global warming data curve, the creators of that hockey stick have never come forth to explain where they got the data from from a million years ago. We had thermometers then.To measure Sea temperature, Rocky Andes, Mt Everest etc. Or just some lines of code using extrapolation? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by pompeiimagnus: 9:04am On Feb 03, 2021 |
basilico:Every industry has relied on govt subsidies at a certain time. Right now, renewables need these subsidies for at least another 20 years. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by pompeiimagnus: 9:10am On Feb 03, 2021 |
basilico:If you've lived near a coal plant, you'd understand the issues around emissions. Even gas flaring from Shell flowstations in Port Harcourt is now a major issue with all the black soot and rising temperatures people there are complaining about. |

Newsmax canceled Liddel live on TV with the anchor walking out but every Republican is more interested in why Twitter blocked him. The moment the anchor read a page for Lideel because of fear of defamation was my funniest

pompeiimagnus:Coal is a pollutant I don't dispute that.Cleaner coal plants are coming up online every day. Gas powered turbines are less pollutant. America reduces the fossil fuel plants , China and India are under no obligation to reduce their carbon footprint (A term to scare people by the way). What is the end goal. If there is only renewables does that mean the global temps will go down? Is there any study ascertaining that or it's just computer models And we also need to wear three masks, apparently that might reduce human carbon footprint too I guess. There was no oil before 1875 as we all know.That should imply we should not have deserts as the Sahara, Kalahari or Atacama.Right? |

Warren Buffett Position: Chairman and CEO Company Name: Berkshire Hathaway Amount donated in 2019-2020: $254,100 Donated to: Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Insights: Though Warren Buffett is one of the most well-known CEOs on this list, he donated the smallest amount to the election, with just over $250,000 going to the DCCC. Buffett’s company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns numerous brands such as Fruit of the Loom, GEICO, Dairy Queen and Duracell. This is how media cheats. That he did not donate to Joe Biden . AP news. https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-afs:Content:9930768811 CLAIM: Warren Buffett donated $58 million to President Joe Biden’s campaign, so Biden canceled the Keystone XL pipeline as a favor to Buffett. AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Warren Buffett did not donate to Biden’s presidential campaign, nor did he endorse him. Buffett previously has voiced public support for the Keystone XL pipeline. THE FACTS: On Biden’s first day in office, he halted construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. The 1,700-mile pipeline was planned to carry roughly 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Alberta to the Texas Gulf Coast. |

’Unexplained wealth order’: Scottish parliament to debate probe into Trump finances Scottish lawmakers on Wednesday decide whether to call for an investigation into former US president Donald Trump’s finances over concerns about how he acquired two golf courses in the country. Members of Scottish Parliament (MSPs) will vote on a motion calling for a probe into the Trump Organization’s two Scottish golf courses using an “unexplained wealth order.” The legal instrument require individuals to explain the source of wealth used to acquire property and other assets in the UK. Members of the Scottish Green Party who initiated the vote have said there are questions to be answered about how the Trump Organization’s holdings in Scotland were acquired.

Twice Impeached Trump, previous lawyers quit over pay dispute The notoriously stingy former president and his lead lawyer, Butch Bowers, wrangled over compensation during a series of tense phone calls, sources familiar with their conversations said. The argument came even though Trump has raised over $170 million from the public that could be used on his legal defenses. The two initially agreed Bowers would be paid $250,000 for his individual services, a figure that “delighted” Trump, one of the sources said. However, Trump didn’t realize Bowers hadn’t included additional expenses — including more lawyers, researchers and other legal fees that would be accrued on the job. He was said to be livid when Bowers came back to him with a total budget of $3 millionhttps://www.axios.com/trump-legal-fees-impeachment-trial-8f6578e6-0662-4aea-8edc-aee2530c5165.html |
