The Environment / Re: The link between global warming and world population expansion.
« on: 20/11/2023 03:54:53 »
Israel has won the war in Gaza and Hamas need to surrender immediately.to protect their women and children.
We know from the protests in Tel Aviv that many Israelites are sympathetic towards other Arabic tribes who also are Abrahams descendants and would be willing to share Israel with them.
In fact, if the non violent Gaza and West bank residents individually each signed a peace declaration in return for full Israel citizenship, then they could vote in the next general election and who knows what could be achieved as they would no longer be second class citizens.
Those people that did not apply for citizenship would automatically become refugees and need to be exiled to a distant  UN refugee camp, as they cannot stay inside Israel unless they obtain a valid visa.

Everyone here in Doha wants the war in Gaza stopped but do not know how this can be achieved.

 A white flag surrender, armistice or Hamas capitulation which will lead to the arrest of all anti-Israel supporters and their imprisonment to face wartime crimes or mostly into voluntary exile into a UN refugee camp at least 2000 miles away from Israel in say Western Sahara.  We need to stop the bloodshed and make Gaza part of Israel or part of Egypt ? It can no longer remain a separate state.

The problem is global warming caused by population expansion; messing about with reducing engine emission's is off the point.

So, the UN is mostly responsible for the population expansion and resulting global warming by sending free medicine and food to refugee camps thus reducing child mortality and stopping farming so the recipients can never become a self-sufficient nation.

But, to stop the bloodshed in Gaza we must understand that Gaza is a refugee city and its inhabitants should be acknowledged as such. Those that cannot live peacefully with Israel may need to be exiled to a new refugee camp possibly in Western Sahara but at least 2,000 miles from the Israel border to avoid a catastrophic situation developing further.

No, to avoid bloodshed the Gaza city refugees need a new home and western Sahara would be ideal for them as they pride themselves as fishermen.
They will need to feed themselves and become self sufficient in every way using technical aid from everywhere but refusing free food aid unless it has been treated with a contraceptive.
This will avoid impoverishing their children and avoid the population explosion that is causing global warming. as is happening in Cox's Bazaar.

Safety is important but LPG and jetA1 are both hydrocarbons and will produce CO2 as a product so changing over is not helpful to climate change.
In fact climate change is due to increase in world population and not treating free aid food with a contraceptive  is making the situation much worse.  Look at the problem in Gaza and see what happens. They rely on free aid and are not producing their own food, most teenagers are out of work , huge unemployment being made worse by UN free aid.
To solve the problem all pro Hamas and anti Israel Palestinian's will need to be killed OR exiled 2000 miles into a Palestinian refugee camp by declaring themselves as refugees and asking the UN please to transport them 3,300 km to their new home.

New Theories / Re: WHAT DARK FORCES ARE THERE IN DEEP SPACE
« on: 26/10/2023 12:43:09 »
The problem is that dark electromagnetic forces occupy a volume x,y,z but are massless and therefore cannot we measured physically as material change but only in hindsight as an effect.  So have revised the hypothesis as follows
No dark matter or dark energy has been found in space because dark massless forces are needed to balance the WMAP results which I hypothesise as
1 The dark force of mass attraction G is the weakest in distant space volume x,y,z.
2 Electromagnetic dark matter magnoflux spin x,y inertia force of about 5G rotates galactic stars around a magnetic black hole hub
3. Electro-static repulsion of a near 25G dark energy force in z direction is responsible for expanding the universe as stars are assumed as having huge surface plus charges.

The green hydrogen fuel has to be made by electrolysis of water at say 15p per kWh. Then the gas has to be pressurised to 150 bar and shipped to a new fuel depot which might add possibly a cost of 30p per unit which in terms of physics is possible but the economics is suspect..
Rehab old nuclear stations with mini nuclear units enclosed underneath a lake full of water.  Safer than a submarine and no huge concrete structures to waste health and safety money on.
But climate change is caused by high CO2 in the air which is caused by the demands of increases in world population. 
Look at Cox's Bazaar, it had 700,000 Rohingya  refugees in 2017 fleeing Myanmar but now has over a million with kids/teenagers with no jobs and no hope of improvement in the future unless they can escape from this frustrating camp poverty.
Who is responsible for this unsustainable 20% increase in the population in refugee camps but those who think they are doing the right Christian thing by feeding the poor?.
But understand this, free grain will undercut any local farmers production and stop locals refugees kids having jobs. Grain mountains rise in the west who have a months of supply in hand in case the harvest fails next year.  But when the new harvest is good and arriving at their grain silos the old must be disposed of; so why not give it to a NGO or UN? what better way of losing it?   This can only sensibly be corrected by getting the UN to acknowledge the problem and advise NGO's to treat free food aid with a contraceptive before passing it on.  Not treating free food is causing climate change due to population increase and much serious poverty in any and all refugee camps.

Green hydrogen is only produced by pure electrolysis but the gas cannot be liquified without extremely expensive cooling and pressurising.  To use hydrogen fuel in a car is nonsense as the source of electric fuel is a battery so why not just drive the motor/wheels directly.
To liquify hydrogen we normally combine it with carbon and hydrocarbon is of course diesel or refined into petrol and produces water and CO2.
Alternatively, we could press the hydrogen into nitrogen and make costly ammonia NH3 but only 50% concentrated or it becomes unstable/explosive.  Another alternative is hydrogen peroxide but even a concentration of 10% could be dangerously explosive on hot summer days.
Hydrogen gas is therefore not really suitable as a fuel unless you have a surplus of electric hydro or geothermal power as already established by other posts and have no batteries to charge and store the energy.
For the grid; nuclear is the best low carbon fuel option but population explosion is the real cause of the extra CO2 in the air and climate change.

Inside the universe is magnetised and outside is not and is empty non existent and cannot transit light. I wrote this blog  para  in 2006
" The restriction on AC plasma energy to move only within the electromagnetic magnoflux fabric of space, was necessary at Gods creation to confine the Almighty plasma flash of AC light energy and stop it moving away at the speed of light which would have lead to an infinite dispersion. This restriction still applies today, for if 99.99% of the stars/Sun energy is just blasted off into space which is 99.99% empty, then 99.99% of the energy will arrive at the edge of the universe with nowhere to go except outwards leading to a catastrophic dilution. As the edge of the universe is defined by a known amount of red-shift and the edge is not shining brilliantly, we can deduce that the random T^4 energy law only applies to a tiny number of Wolf Rayet type stars. Stars in the main sequence are not emitted in all directions, as believed by Stefan but only through the magnetic-flux tunnels in space. Thus the Sun beams most of its output directly to the planets and the intervening space is mostly dark. Stars appear as lighthouses, beaming light directly to all the planets but mostly their own planets, moons, comets & asteroids.
There has to be a boundary in space [heliopause] between the stars, where the incoming energy exactly balances the outgoing energy. See soft balloon diagram below. Each star system is self contained with a star at the centre of its volume. According to the latest Lambda-CDM model 70% of the universe is missing, but agrees that quote ?it says nothing about the fundamental physical origin of dark matter or dark energy? so is unable to explain the universe correctly. The electro static repulsion has been ignored in the classical model; so it won?t balance.

STEVENS DEEP SPACE DARK FORCES HYPOTHESIS 
No dark matter or dark energy has been found in space to balance the WMAP dark forces,but could they be
1] The dark force of mass attraction G is the weakest of the dark forces in distant space.
2 The electromagnetic dark matter spin force of about 5G rotates galactic stars around a magnetic black hole hub
3. Repulsion by a near 25G dark energy force is responsible for expanding the universe as stars are assumed to have positively charged surfaces and thus repel each other electrostatically'

Transport of add types will always require a fuel to energise it.  Our objective is to get clean fuel at minimum cost.

So IMHO we have sensibly agreed to open a coal mine and now to resume exploiting oil in the north sea all of which will bring jobs for our children and save foreign currency.
 
It is a shame that the Welsh coal mines and power stations are not still operating or that Port Talbot steel works cannot also be brought back on line

Number one priority however, is to get the nuclear plants built to drive the base load of 20 GW or so all of which gives our kids more work and assists industry to expand economically.

Population explosion caused CO2 emissions to rise and drives global warming but using clean fuels help us all.

Chris Packham seems to want us to demonstrate about the abandonment of unobtainable targets in the reductions of CO2 emissions . 
He appeared not to have understood that we cannot ban oil without replacing its versatile energy with some other form of energy source.
Renewable wind and solar are not sufficient to power our electric grid 24/7.  We should certainly consider starting to rehabilitate our existing and closed nuclear power stations.
Development of electric vehicles for inner city use is advancing well but motorway vehicles will realistically remain hybrid and continue to use diesel and petrol as their exhaust gases can be absorbed by roadside green vegetation which will photosynthesise the CO2 and produce oxygen for us or our animals to breath.

You are drifting off the point that population explosion is responsible for increased CO2 emissions.
So to solve economic immigrates over running  us we need action in the countries that are causing the increase.
Why should the politicians be blamed for parents having too many children?? Well firstly they should explain to parents that they should only have the number of children that they can afford to find a job for and even build a house each for them.  No one should be allowed to abandon their children just because they are 18 and grown up.
Most of Africa, South Asia and south/central America have a problem of teenager unrest with no jobs or work blaming politicians for not expanding their economy quickly enough. But it is their own parents that are to blame. 
Politicians should however, insist that foreign donations will not undermine their economies which is happening in Africa where farmers cannot compete with free food aid that is dumped on them by mechanised nations with grain mountains to get rid of.
Further third world politicians should insist that the free maize is treated with a contraceptive to avoid pregnancies in refugee camps which is making their problem worse.

New Theories / Grand Canyon Formation
« on: 03/09/2023 12:50:32 »
Geologists seem to believe that the Colorado river formed the canyon but are unable to explain why all the separate layers formed over the last 1,200 million year are exposed when in most other canyons and gorges the river only washes down to a hard rock layer possibly a 100 metres.
The grand canyon is spectacularly over a 1,000 metres deep with multiple layers all exposed together irrespective of whether made of soft sandy or hard granite like material.
Geologists can see that something dramatic happened around 100 million years or so ago, but not how it happened.
Well, the most probable reason could be we were hit by a huge asteroid that bounced off the planet removing a 200km long scar but this would resulted in a huge crater rather than a canyon. But we could have been hit by a horseshoe shaped asteroid made of anti-matter which would annihilate matter kilogram for kilogram on contact regardless of its hardness which would result in what we see today..

The problem with hydrogen gas is it cannot be compressed into liquid form and aircraft cannot carry huge tanks of compressed gas. Forming hydrogen from electrolysis as aircraft fuel is totally inefficient and what would you do with the carbon left over inside the plane??  I agree that city EV's should be mini or micro size vehicles which can be charged at home.

Getting back to root cause of this post;. Having identified that the global warming problem really is caused by global population increase we need to make a positive plan to correct the situation by assisting expanding countries to reduce their population growths.
The UN should be in the lead but not sure when they will respond with a plan.

The sky report shows clearly that no point in building more wind turbines until the 400kV grid line over the border is reinforced.
The nat grid have at least a100 foot servitude for the existing  line so immediately they must build an extra 2 quad lines one each side of the existing line. There is no time for worrying about planning consents and the government should insist on the grid starting immediately and offer to pay all pre-ordering costs upfront to avoid delays.

I agree with both the last 2 posts by Paul and Alan that if we just let things drift on some calamity natural or not will reduce the population substantially..
.
Just look at Indian sub continent and south/central America though;  we are seeing riotous unrest because the local people there are looking for someone to blame for not developing their economy and increasing their standard of living quickly enough.  But our/their politicians are ignorant or not telling people the truth that we ourselves might be to blame.
 
.
Why should we blame ourselves??
.Well, if we only had 2 surviving children per family then there would be no requirement to build extra houses, roads, water/electric infrastructure;  just a case of passing on our own houses/land to our children.  This in fact has always been the way normal inheritance has worked but families had to be larger then as there was no medical backups..

The link between CO2 increase and population increase is not coincidental but how do we encourage people tto have smaller families??
Well, if a country produced X million $ of goods and halved its population then the per capita standard of living would double and in fact treble because there would be no need to spend money on new houses, roads, water, sewage expansion etc.
So should world aid to poorer countries be conditional on that country openly agreeing to encourage contraception?

Chris Pacham EARTH last night chatted on about global freezing due to to many trees and vegetation causing a lack of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that leads to an ice age.
But the opposite is also true that too much carbon dioxide in the air causes global ice melts and warming.
We must get to a balance point quickly by adopting policies that will correct the overpopulation in poorer countries by making them more prosperous so they do not need large families.. .
So how to balance the planet
