Oooppps! Climate Change Misconceptions (eBook)

Updated recent scientific calculations show that human-induced greenhouse gas emissions are not powerful enough to cause the global warming atmospheric climate scientists have been witnessing and worrying about. As well, solar scientists recently have discovered a "e;double-dynamo"e; magnetic cycle within the sun which affects earth's magnetic-shield and systematically changes earth's cloud cover (and the amount of solar heat reflected away from the earth). This systematic changing cloud cover and attendant reflection of incoming solar heat does have enough climate-forcing power to cause the global warming we have been witnessing. This newly-discovered solar-magnetic temperature cycle has occurred some 14 times in the past 10,500 years (roughly every 750 years), and is responsible for the global warming and climate change the earth recently has been experiencing-while increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has only a trivial or inconsequential temperature effect.Fortunately, the current solar-magnetic global temperature cycle is about to "e;peak"e; and within a few years, global cooling will begin-and all the ominous conclusions of peripheral "e;climate scientists,"e; based on their supposition of ever-increasing global temperature as a result of ever-increasing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, will be found to be obsolete and inapplicable.Regrettably, Wind and Solar generated electricity will become increasingly less-affordable as Wind and Solar sources of electric supply increase and progressively penetrate the base electric supply. This is because unpredictable and sometimes extended natural interruptions in Wind and Solar supply, will require expensive reserve "e;fill-in"e; systems (such as battery-banks or pumped-hydroelectric reservoirs) which will have to be deployed to prevent grid blackouts. These added reserve costs will have to be amortized into the consumer cost of electricity-making that cost progressively increase to prohibitive levels. For example, the cost of fuel for electric vehicles will increase from about $2 per egallon today (early 2023) to about $20 per egallon as penetration of Wind and Solar generated electricity goes from about 12 percent of the base supply today to the currently planned 72 percent in the year 2035. The price of gasoline would be about $5 per gallon at that same time.Will auto buyers continue to switch to electric vehicles when, after Wind and Solar become the dominant sources of electric supply, the electric vehicle driver realizes he or she must pay $20 to drive 40 miles-while the gasoline vehicle driver only has to pay $5 to drive the same distance?The architects of our currently planned transformation from a Fossil-Fuel to a Wind-and-Solar electrical future have not thought the process through, and have made colossal miscalculations, which the BriefBook Oooppps!compellingly explains.
