X-Message-Number: 22638 From: Date: Sat, 4 Oct 2003 10:31:30 EDT Subject: CO2phobia >Summary: we've seen what an increase of 87 ppm did. We can't really take another 170 ppm (twice that) without real problems. Let's not be parochial here. The planet had far more life when the CO2 level was closer to 1% than the current 0.037%. In fact, it may be the only way to stop an Ice Age. So you have to replace your poodle with a Deinonychus, it's better than global ice sheets. >Time for wind power and pebble bed fission reactors, Can't argue with that. Some He-3/deuterium reactors would be nice too, while we're discussing the alternate world where people are numerate enough to know that coal power plants release 100 times the radioactivity that even old-technology fission plants do. Steve, it's time for you to sell that poodle farm in Bangladesh and get with the program.
