Nonsense less than 1/3 signed that joke document on global warming. In the 70s the next ice age was coming now it is global warming. The conspiracy is not businesses it is the government. As Obamas chief of staff was caught saying "“a crises is a terrible thing to waste” In other words get everyone panicing and shove everything you canb down their throat until they catch on. This global warming is the Democrat plot to create a bunch of new government agencies to create more laws to keep you from doing what we should have a right to do. Also many of those scientists have backed off the whole global warming disaster program because their hoped for grants did not come through.
"Oh, I just wanted to add, it’s a shame that the car co’s won’t spec better metal for sturctural parts.
If, for instance, you kept the car the same and just substituted 7075-Al for the heavy, lo-strength, non-tempered steel, you’d have a car that a. Got better mileage b. better acceleration and handling c. fewer emissions, including CO2."
That will make the car significantly more expensive. Are you willing to pay several thousand more for an aluminum body?
In most places temperatures are measured at the local airports, since there are already government weather stations in place. The problem with this is that urban sprawl has moved the heat generation by people and building ever closer to those thermometers. Where I live, the local airport temperature has risen considerably due to the city growing right up to the airport boundaries.
In other words, ambient temperatures have to be measured well away from urban and people influences.
The coldest inabited city on earth is Verkhojansk in Siberia; AVERAGE DAY & NIGHT January temperature -48C or -59F! Some places in Alaska, such as oil production facilites might be colder, but I doubt it.
Why do you say that? If you burn 10 gallons of gas in an old car or new car, the same amount of CO and CO2 are produced, correct? It may not burn as efficiently in an older car, but that would mean less gas is converted to CO and CO2. Help me understand your reasoning.
A newer car will make far less CO, which is much more poisonous than CO2.
If the room were sealed well enough the CO2 from your own breath would eventually suffocate you. No gas needed.
Keep up the good work of representing us who don’t buy the media and PC-ers that look for the latest cause to shove down everyone’s throat!!
