Yzermandius19 Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) you want to save the rainforest? Brazil becoming prosperous is the best way as that happens more people will move to the cities far away from the rainforest and less farmers will be there and need to cut it down to create farmland if Brazil was dumb enough to cancel fossil fuels, that will result in more rainforest lost Edited June 15, 2021 by Yzermandius19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than when? Please think before you post anything. If unsure, do not post. before we started using coal and oil Europe clear cut most of it's forests when wood was the main source of fuel now those forests have bounced back as Europe became more wealthy the BC rainforest is already saved 85% of it is protected from logging mission accomplished what are you whining about?

They can't empathize with the single mom making 35k trying to raise kids. And at that doing very little but following the hand of never-elected conductors in PMO. The model works on assumption that the well is bottomless and endless. Is it though? At some point we may find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing will change in the world. Until you can posit a way in which we can slow or stop climate change it really isn't important, is it? No one has come up with a way yet which doesn't require all nations to cooperate - which is just not happening. Carbon dioxide will cease being released in such large numbers when we find a cheaper way of producing large amounts of reliable energy and not before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceni warrior Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Coal is so 19th century. Good on Canada for finally working it out. Now you just have to accept that oil is so 20th century and you're right up to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with steam engines, if you burned hydrogen to heat the water they would produce no pollution or CO2 at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure. Solar powered steam turbines are a great way to generate electricity too. Coal fired power stations though, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aristides Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 The problem is always the fuel, even with electric. The environmental impact of things like lithium mining on areas like the Atacama region of Chile are substantial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally hundreds of new coal fired power plants are under construction around the world. How is the climate better off if they're supplied by Russian coal instead of Canadian coal?
