and then there's physics

An error has occurred; the feed is probably down. Indeed. There is a real mystery around why H. Saps wandered around the globe for ~70,00 years and then within a few centuries settled down into villages and domesticated plants and animals in China, the Indus valley and Mesopotamia around 11,000 BPE. At first glance it might appear as simple as swinging a club and hitting the ball. Posted on January 2, 2021 by...and Then There's Physics I noticed, as has Stoat, that Ken Caldeira and Ted Nordhaus have a bet about whether or not we’ve reached peak CO2 emissions. Color is determined first by frequency and then by how those frequencies are combined or mixed when they reach they eye. This has irked me since the beginning. So that's why I'm turning to you guys. Does this mean I have to give “Mein Kampf” a go? Since there was a long hiatus at least I won’t have missed much. Or ground sloths. Recent evolution of the UK electricity mix is here: https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/data-portal/electricity-generation-mix-quarter-and-fuel-source-gb. Teh Donald, Jair, Viktor, and Recep Tayyip invented nothing, Very Tall: Like all movements, left-wing fascism has a somewhat chaotic ancestry. Years later very little has been done apart from some early planing. Not just a fake environmentalist, but also a fake eco-modernist. The Ogallala Aquifer will be drained way before 2100. I have been highly sceptical of the so-called ‘eco-modernist’ manifesto that came out four years ago and in which Shellenberger was a prominent signatory. It’s probably an unfortunate aspect of human nature. Is it worth going back? For example, i think that Mike uses both techniques. Are you sure? Lomborg did it in TSE, and Shellenberger repeats the exercise in AN. You apply and are, typically, accepted. Although it does help if the middle of nowhere comes right to the edge of town . I am sure that they must have been pointed out to him before publication of the English version of TSE, but cherry-pickers tend to prefer certain cherries. I am sure that experts in other fields will deconstruct the rest of it. But God is not an object or phenomenon or regu… Even if an IPCC author suggested that Shellenberger applied to become a reviewer, that isn’t what anyone would recognise as an invitation from the IPCC. The problem is that the harm is not necessarily just instantaneous but there are temporal legacies. A Belfast-based consortium has been awarded a £33m government grant to develop a zero-emissions ferry. The problem is that nothing I’ve seen being presented by Michael Shellenberger in this context, is particularly different to what I’ve seen him present before. They highlight the fact that western planners are well aware that our industrialized societies are profoundly unsustainable and require resources from less developed countries to remain affluent and dominant. If it’s still off the rails it would make an interesting counterpoint to S&L because it really did build a deserved reputation for doing it by the book. As far as nuclear goes, I’m all in favour when it would be the optimal energy source. There Are Hall of Famers, and Then There’s Hank Aaron. This proves that Shellenberger is more interested in promoting himself and his book than on his phony credentials as an ‘environmentalist’. Pingback: 2020: A year in review | …and Then There's Physics. The light bends, or refracts, as it enters the droplet, and then … Rachel M, I’m surprised that anyone following climate and energy would not’f heard of him. NG should have been BG, Brandon Gates Both Lomborg and Shellenberger actually would come near to bottom of any truly progressive environmental table. What changed in the Holocene was first the development of agriculture. After praising Zeke for his response, I then made the mistake of reading Michael’s response to Zeke – and at this point I just hope that Zeke just simply stops where he’s at. @-Ben McM In response, Judy and Junior try to play ClimateBall with Zeke. I might add a category “overstating a consensus” on the subject of butNo ExtinctionVI if only for the lulz. At some time in the past, I stumbled upon this word and went “damn, even my writing style shows zero originality,”. Sorry. Instead, it increased by 73% over that time. Let’s not overlook what happens when most of your grid is dependent on lots of cool surface water. Ships carrying bulk quantities of food, which is the delivered by train and lorry is essential. Censored, censored I tell you, by the Marxist leftwing fascists at Forbes magazine. I’ll go back. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_modular_reactor Someone at the IPCC could have asked him to be an “expert” reviewer. I take logic to be the philosophical framework and the background for the observation of the universe. Following completion of the registration process, each Expert Reviewer will receive an email from the WGI Technical Support Unit on 16 December 2011 with an individual username and password. My school had overflow classrooms in wooden huts and when I arrived next morning it was closed, with broken windows and damaged walls twenty feet up, caused by the shattered remains of the huts as they blew around like matchsticks. The IUCN lists at as ‘least concern’. But to deny the antipopular and teutonic characteristics of Adorno’s later works, worshipfully introduced in English by British and American scholars who should have known better, is to deny the obvious–and the dangerous. Offshore wind power cheaper than new nuclear. You have to plough the peat into ridges a few feet high to make a dry spot to plant the seedling, which probably releases so much CO2 and CH4 that the trees won’t pay back for decades if ever. The whole point is to get people to judge the book, at least in the sense of whether or not they regard it as something worth reading. I think Shellenberger’s pimping of not only denser bull$h!t factories, but MOAR of them per capita, flies out of the realm of likely error and past dangerously wrong: * Factories and modern farming are the keys to human liberation and environmental progress Like the warrior, as scientists weigh in with criticisms and corrections, he will deflect. ESA/NASA/JPL-Caltech. Thanks for the heads-up on your Twitter post, Ken. It's biology, chemistry, physics. I think that there are certain ideologues who use each of those approaches, but I don’t think they are mutually exclusive categories.
