    Are the factories formerly operated by Katerra still producing mass timber construction materials? I only know about mass timber from the New Yorker and the Newshour pieces.

    LOL. this thread is awesome, sorry just an attempt at some light hearted humor.

    Been lead down some great rabbit holes and learning a lot from the posts so good stuff.

    On a serious note with all the talk about our climate and renewables and the very extensive amount of up-to-date videos regarding those topics... I never really hear anyone talk about the sun and the various effects it may have on our climate... one of the rabbit holes I've been lead down because of this forum...cool video

    Also been watching stuff on Nikola Tesla, Pyramids(were they tombs or power generators?), AC vs. DC, Planetary precession etc. ....more people should be watching these kinds of videos instead of waisting their time on TikTok

    Pyramid generators? Wtf. How they were built and aligned is crazy interesting however.

    Tesla is an amazing dude. A one man darpa. Smarter than Edison by far.

    And agree on Tik Tok.
    But the average American is so stoopid it’s their new bread and circus.

    3rd consecutive La Nina predicted. More drought, more fire and no drinking water for the southwest. Given that El Ninos are historically more frequent than Ninas, three consecutive La Ninas is practically unheard of. But, ask the Anasazi; this could go on for another 40 years. This will be a back breaker for many communities.

    More bullshit climate denial. Natural cycles alone would have the planet cooling. I suggest you check out IPCC AR6 WG1 report from last year that says pretty much all warming is human caused.

    What part of the video about the sun did you find to be climate denial bullshit? maybe you should re watch before ripping someone apart.

    Anytime someone challenges the narrative or raises questions their branded a climate denier?

    You think after years of studies that no one ever thought, "hmmmm, maybe solar gain and solar activity has something to do with the warming of the planet"?

    The theory has been advanced and proven to NOT BE be the driving factor on multiple occasions.

    Climate Change

    Dude, people call you a denier because you are constantly bringing up “just asking questions” stuff that can be easily disproved by two minutes of Google, then you back off and move the goal posts to some other “just asking” bullshit. At this point you have to either be willfully ignorant about what’s happening, or just plain ignorant. You don’t strike me as the latter.

    If you don’t think we should do anything about climate change, then at least be brave enough to say it. Otherwise you’re coming off as a weasel here.

    Not many outright deniers left.. Most have moved on to yabut kick the can because we're not 100% sure how to fix it..

    It's no surprise that this same psychographic is most opposed to immigration reform and clueless that climate change is what's driving the vast majority of these people fleeing the areas they are coming here from.


    Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

    What about the rich refugees? I'm more concerned about everyone who can afford to flee the southwest trying to move to Idaho over the next decade. Seems like that is already happening. Our climate refugees drive Porsches.

    Yeah, except that's exactly what you were trying to do.

    On second thought - you are following the deniers playbook of trying to create doubt (used by tobacco companies as well as fossil fuel companies). You don't have to prove anything (because you can't) so you just try to make people not sure what to believe and leave them unsure about the truth. This "doubt" is enough to prevent people from taking action. So we are calling you out for this.

    Build a wall. Pretty sure Idaho is as expendable as Florida and Texas when it comes to what's left of the UNITED States when folks start seceding.

    Shellenberger is a well-known and debunked climate denier. Sharing this is more proof you are a denier with an agenda who is pretending to be an interested person wanting to discuss this topic.

    Good retort about the echo chamber though. Ouch!!

    Truckee is having a meeting this Thursday at the Rec Center from 5-7pm. The Town looking for community feedback on whether all new construction should be fossil fuel free. Get out there! Moreover, if your children are interested in climate change, it is a good chance to teach local civic engagement.

    https://www.townoftruckee.com/Home/C...2Fnews-updates

    If Crested Butte can do it, so can Truckee. 25% of buildings in the US are already all-electric. Norway is at 100% (though they are a culture that loves burning wood when it is really cold.) Making a building all-electric when building it is just the smart way to do it. Annoying to retrofit later...though we'll have to do that too.

    Cheers,
    Shaft

    So his tedtalks presentation there is all just complete BS then? And the exploitation of cobalt miners and the negative environmental impacts on their farmlands is all just BS?

    I agree with Shellenberger in that we should pursue nuclear more then wind and solar. Sorry if that offends anyone.
