"Japan Wants To Put A Giant Solar Farm In Space"
https://www.iflscience.com/technology/japan-wants-put-giant-solar-farm-space/

"Picture this: a giant solar power plant floating in space, gathering the sun’s energy with virtually no constraints from the weather, seasons or time of day, delivering a constant supply of green energy to Earth. Sound a little too Sci-Fi? Well, thanks to JAXA, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, we could actually witness this incredible technology in just over a decade."

"China Plans To Build The World's First Solar Power Station In Space"

"China is planning to build the world's first solar power station in space to provide "inexhaustible clean energy" according to a story in Science and Technology Daily, the official newspaper of China's Ministry of Science and Technology.
Pang Zhihao, from the China Academy of Space Technology said that a space solar power system orbiting the Earth at an altitude of 36,000 kilometers could tap the energy of the sun's rays without disruption from atmospheric conditions or loss of sunlight at night.
They claim to be already testing the technology and intend to build the station by 2050."

It's a massive pile of nonsense. :rolleyes:

DUMB:

These floating solar panels would actually be tethered to a station on the ground in order to keep the satellite at a fixed point in geostationary orbit.

Key words: The evidence is that the increase in CO2 will lead to very little warming, and that the connection of this minimal warming (or even significant warming) to the purported catastrophes is also minimal.

Yes and he's right. However I was pointing out that there is a greenhouse effect and without it Earth would far too cold to sustain life.

As I recall, that map is for economic costs associated with climate adaptation.
It says nothing about damage to ecosystems. Though, as I understand it - and surmise from your post - most conservatives do not give a rats ass about wildlife, ecosystems, and the biological integrity of our planet - or even what happens to other people on the planet. As long as you're okay, f*ck everything else on the planet, eh?

Too bad that what might have been an interesting and intelligent discussion has turned into a shit soup of "yeah but liberals are idiots" and "So-and-so is an asshole" as per usual around here.

My two cents:

Climate change is occurring.

Define 'climate change'.
ThatOwlWoman said:
Whether at this point it's too late to do anything is not within my scientific ken.

What is there to do besides defining 'climate change'?
ThatOwlWoman said:
What's certain though is that doing nothing will lead to eventual disaster.
Click to expand...
What disaster? It's undefined!

How best to "do something"?

What is there to do?
ThatOwlWoman said:
1. Our govt. (the current one) needs to stop pretending nothing is happening.

What is happening?
ThatOwlWoman said:
2. Our govt., along with industry and commerce, need to formulate some ideas on how best to deal with it, with oversight by non-govt. scientists.

Deal with what? Define 'climate change'.

3. Carrots always work better than sticks. No one wants sticks -- but the idiotic hyperbole of "Ermagawd government gonna destroy capitalism and freedom because climate change!" is more like a log than a stick.
Click to expand...
Nah. It's just Marxism.
ThatOwlWoman said:
4. Carrots -- tax incentives for companies and individuals to green up. We have had this in the past; I'm unsure whether Trump managed to dispense with all of the various rebates and tax breaks yet, or not.
Click to expand...
Under what authority? The Constitution of the United States provides for no such authority.
ThatOwlWoman said:
5. In five years if carrots aren't doing what #2 has come up with for a plan, then it's stick time.

Under what authority?
ThatOwlWoman said:
6. Small stick: If you haven't managed to reduce your net energy usage in those five years, your rates will go up. If you haven't managed to curb your carbon emissions (amt to be determined by #2, above) in five years, your taxes will go up.
Click to expand...
Under what authority? It is unconstitutional to implement a State religion.
ThatOwlWoman said:
7. Big stick: If raising your tax rate doesn't get you (businesses) to curb your carbon emissions, then we'll be adding fines to your bill.

Under what authority?

Pretty much.

So we have these socialists and they’re not having a lot of success in getting their socialism passed into law. But lo and behold, the earth will end in 12 years if we don’t ‘do something’ about climate change.

And wouldn’t you know it? Everything that must be done to avert the climate disaster involves a massive expansion of government, draconian increases in the cost of energy and government intrusion into the lives of Americans—many of whom, happen to vote.

That climate solutions lead to socialism seems a little too convenient to a lot of people.

Hence, the OP question.

AND

When the earth doesn't end in 12 years, liberals will just say it's because of the changes that THEY were able to accomplish.

:facepalm:
 
What's that? Huh? Can't hear you. Tsk. lol

You are more than welcome to point out anything that I state as fact, as being non-factual. But first, you will have to figure out how to extract your head from your asshole. ;)
