Wind-Farms (Parks)

Hi there

I learn your article on Google Information. I learn about these machines and I can let you know the individuals dwelling ip close to the North Sea could be all useless or all of them evacuated from that nice Wind-Farm.

The following level I would really like Iike to say is Wind-Farms produce warmth of their connection cables and warmth the seas as a result of the Farms comprise so many Generators and are so massive. Consequently all of the Marie life, whales, dolphins fish and many others, are all cooked and float round the other way up.

I don’t know why the peoples up that approach are so fixated on these foolish gimmicks nevertheless it perhaps your Governments are trying to cull their inhabitants of you all. I say this as a result of this stuff are so noisey the Generators can kill if the wind is kind of sturdy of velocity.

There’s nothing good about Wind Generators. These machines are far too injurious and intrusive for peoples and fauna.

Type Regards

Wow! That’s ALL information to us. Thanks a lot for the warning. Certainly you saved quite a lot of lives. LOL

Desalinated Water is simply as low-cost as common water now, so why not water the forest to maintain them from getting too dry? W,e want some individuals like Elon Musk and Trump to come back in and shake the place up.

Hello _____, thanks for writing in. I haven’t seen that desalinated water is as low-cost as common groundwater now — do you have got references for that? Additionally, how would you ship that water from the ocean to the forest?

Thanks for studying — admire all sides of the political spectrum in search of options — simply need to guarantee they’re science-based and never simply taking pictures from the hip.

Thanks to your good response and I actually admire your open mindedness.

Desalination system may produce freshwater that’s cheaper than faucet water from MIT and China..

Israeli desalination, wastewater remedy turns into international mannequin for water shortage…

Bought it! yea, for positive, in Israel, the place the solar shines continuously, photo voltaic powered desal is a win — unsure it might apply in BC, although. Query stays, tho, how do you ship that water to the forest and unfold it over billions of acres? Desal on website to drink is nice — you don’t have to maneuver the water very far, and you’ll pump it proper into an current plumbing system.

Desalinated Water crops can use Solar energy through the day to make the water usable. The Desalinated Water might be offered to customers to water their yards and Farmers to water their crops and to the Authorities to save lots of their sacred fish.  And that far more individuals can drink the Mountain Water.  I obtained that from Israel too.  2 pipes to each home.  I like promoting a quota of Timber to maintain the forest skinny. Use the Tree cash to assist pay for the pipelines to the CA forest.  It gained’t be free but when you are able to do initiatives that pay for themselves, it may be performed.  The CA Forest Fires in 2021 have been a wakeup name to everybody.  I see individuals within the EPA saying Forest Fires are factor and it makes my blood boil. In gentle of International Warming, we’ve to rethink letting Forest Fires simply occur. And they are often Photo voltaic pipelines that pump the Desalinated Water as much as reservoirs within the Forest when the batteries are charged. You must get 6 hours of pumping whereas the solar beats down on CA.

Billions of Acres is a Tall order however arent the gorgeous Redwoods price it? And I believe there’s something to the UC Davis research concerning the CA Forest not being the Nice Carbon Sinks they as soon as have been.  And we’ve to plan with that in thoughts.  Too many Timber ingesting Restricted Water.  

Completely one other topic however I’m actually excessive on Exxon taking CO2 from our Chemical crops between New Orleans and Baton Rouge and utilizing it in Enhanced Oil Restoration initiatives that pay for themselves. I additionally see the potential of placing the CO2 in previous Wells serving to with the issue of our Sunkin Land alongside our Coast in Louisiana. If pulling Oil and Fuel out of the Floor induced the Land to sink, wouldn’t placing CO2 again within the Floor trigger the Land to rise once more? That ought to offer you guys one thing to chew on for some time.

Attention-grabbing ideas — I put a sprinkler system in my yard, about 1/Four acre, and it price me about $15Ok and wishes common upkeep. What number of acres of timber want irrigation? I don’t truthfully know, however I think about it’s so much. Additionally, land doesn’t rise should you put fuel beneath it — not in any degree form of approach. Have you ever seen Gasland? Good documentary about drilling, pumping, groundwater, and sinkholes.

Did you examine Exxon shopping for the Denbury CO2 pipeline?  Nevertheless, these Turkeys are utilizing CO2 from Jackson Dome in Enhanced Oil Restoration initiatives as an alternative of CO2 from our Most cancers Alley of Chemical Crops.  However the infrastructure is there to begin capturing the CO2 from the Chemical  crops and begin cleansing up our Air in Most cancers Alley. Perhaps you’ll be able to move the phrase to Pres. Biden to throw some CCS bucks in that course? 

We’ll get proper on that — we’ve that crimson cellphone on our desk that each one we’ve to do is choose it up and it dials straight to President Biden’s private cellular phone.
