Look, if you want to believe that sequestering CO2 is either economically or technically feasible. go ahead. I'm not going to argue with you anymore. Believe whatever stupid nonsense you like.

Learn to fucking R-E-A-D.

This isn't about pulling CO2 'from the atmosphere'. Never was.

But you didn't bother to even read what the hell this all about, attributed to.some other thing you saw a YouTube and insisted that your alternate reality is what the subject matter is here.

You do this quite a bit in other subjects. I don't know how you function in life.

Trollhole says

Learn to fucking R-E-A-D.

I don't engage in ad-hominem insults.

The crux of this entire, stupid thread, was that the article was bullshit. You can't sequester CO2 forever, you have to spend more energy to withdraw CO2 by burning fossil fuels than you take out of the atmosphere mechanically, and this is entirely impractical.

He's a PHd physicist that made a name for himself debunking bullshit projects that aren't designed to work, but are designed to invite capital, then fail. In short, he exposes scams.

I don't care. This is a waste of time to continue.

richwicks says

I don't engage in ad-hominem insults.

Telling you to do something you fucking are not doing is not engaging in ad-homonem insults.

richwicks says

than you take out of the atmosphere mechanically,

THIS ISN'T ABOUT TAKING CO2 OUT OF THE ATMO.

If you fucking R-E-A-D what this is about, you would have realized that and not made such an ass out of yourself.

Again, I repeat: THIS ISN'T ABOUT TAKING CO2 OUT OF THE ATMO.

This is about capturing CO2 generated at time of burning of fossil fuels and dealing with it BEFORE it ever gets emitted into the ATMO.

But you just go and shout your mouth off, w/o listening when ppl tell you are off topic.

You do this repeatedly on all kinds of topics, as I have pointed out numerous times.

Which is why I and others keep wondering just how you function in life. This must happen elsewhere in your life, like at work.

Trollhole says

If you fucking R-E-A-D what this is about, you would have realized that and not made such an ass out of yourself.

Or you could just tell what it supposedly is about instead of just telling me I don't know what is about, but strangely you have avoided this for days.

I conclude I understand exactly what it is about, namely the article is bullshit, you were taken in by it, and that I've embarrassed you by pointing that out, and ever since then You've been attacking me claiming I can't read, or I have to read harder

That about right?

Or are you just going to tell me to R-E-A-D harder again?

richwicks says

You STILL don't know you are talking about something else despite my telling you. Yet you still insist on your la-la land bullshit being valid. Amazing.

Again, I also make the observation that this recurring problem of yours must impact your life quite negatively. Esp at work.

Trollhole says

Or, you could just fucking R-E-A-D for yourself.

I'm making a mental note of ignoring you from this point forward. I don't actually place anybody on ignore.

Trollhole says

You STILL don't know you are talking about something else despite my telling you.

You've never told me and never will.

richwicks says

You've never told me and never will.

What the hell is this?

It's not about the price of tea in China either

What IS it about? Fuck, so sick of talking to you

richwicks says

What IS it about?

Jesus Christ

iwog2 says

richwicks says

What IS it about?

Jesus Christ

In all of this, you haven't told me what it's about despite me asking you MULTIPLE times. You only tell me what it ISN'T about. Well, that's an INFINITE number of things.

There is no point in talking with you. This conversation is stupid, and I am a dumber person for interacting with you. This has been a complete waste of time and you might be the first person I ever place on ignore.

Bullshit.

You have some serious problems to work on.

Please do put me on ignore.

iwog2 says

You have some serious problems to work on.

Again, you can never tell me what it's about, only what it's NOT about. Is it about sugar? The price of tea in China? Eucalyptus leaves? Dandruff maybe? Body order? Whiskey? Artificial intelligence? Condoms?

YOU don't know.

What is the greenwashing about? I'll tell you, it's a way to launder money on wasteful projects that aren't designed to work. You can funnel billions of dollars to infrastructure projects that have NO HOPE of working, and pilfer millions off from the top while doing it - all state sponsored, with the taxpayer on the hook for it. It just has to sound "plausible" to the average dope, it doesn't have to be possible in the least.

Well, at least, that's part of it. That was Solyndra.

You cannot remove CO2 from the atmosphere even if there was a permanent sequestering solution because running the equipment to remove the CO2 from the air requires way too much fucking energy. They have engineers, they aren't stupid. I've seen these CO2 scrubbers as much as I have seen those stupid "water from air" technologies, you know, a dehumidifier which again requires enormous amounts of energy, and creates dirty filthy water with whatever else is condensed from the air, smog, smoke, pollen, bacteria, virsuses. MMMmmm MMM! That's good DRINKING water.

Periodically there is the phase of scams, that last for a little while, and then disappear. This is just one of them.

This doesn't have anything to do with Malthusian economics either. It's just an economic scam for the dummy children who are gluing their hands to roads, and throwing paint on paintings. You see, they don't know the first thing about physics, much less engineering. I do.

If they actually wanted to sequester CO2, they would grow the fastest growing plants by weight, then dry them out, burn them (you get energy from that), and then sequester that CO2. THAT would work, and it's cheap. But it doesn't require a lot of useless technology that's, supposedly, expensive and doesn't work. It doesn't allow much in the way of accounting fraud.

Then what is it about?

What is your point that you are trying to make? You can't seem to define it or explain it, despite, what? 2 weeks of you saying I need to read? Read what? To find what?

richwicks says

Then what is it about?

Why should I bother? You don't fucking READ.

iwog2 says

Why should I bother? You don't fucking READ.

I'm giving you a challenge that I know you can't meet.

You can't identify what it's about. I already have several times. You've suggested I get mental help. You're engaging in psychological projection.

richwicks says

I'm giving you a challenge that I know you can't meet.

What? Being able to fucking READ?

Oh yeah, since I originally posted that which you seem to not be able to read, I think it is safe to say I know what it is.
