Default Re: Are leftists good for the environment? Let's look at the evidence. - 12-04-2019, 07:16 AM

We've had a reminder how far removed from reality these wretches are with their ersatz economics and scientific somnolence. It's true, when things started blowing up they did flutter an eyelid but the butterfly effect took over and the whole edifice collapsed.

Not wishing to be more broadly critical than is warranted, I'll allow that some of their engineers probably knew the meanings of words in their own jargon. Sure; otherwise how would they get those inane statues of Lenin to stand up? The problem was that people who actually knew how to do things were not the ones deciding how things should be done. Correct understanding of science is a prerequisite for engagement with the environment. Even Nebuchadnezzar knew that. Stalin, not so much.
Daniel 1
1a In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah
1b Came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem
1c And besieged it
3a And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs
3b That he should bring certain of the children of Israel
3c And of the king's seed
3d And of the princes;
4a Children in whom was no blemish, but well favoured
4b And skilful in all wisdom
4c And cunning in knowledge
4d And understanding science
4e And such as had ability in them to stand in the king's palace.
Whatever masquerades as "science" in the minds of leftists has nothing to do with God and very little to do with the environment. The proof of this pudding is very much in the eating: what leftist-developed science project has been less than catastrophic for the environment? I can't think of one.

Take nuclear energy for example. There had been a few illnesses associated with this and one or two accidents that had nothing to do with the science but everything to do with muttonheaded administrators who far from knowing what the words meant probably didn't even know those words existed: from drawing board to meltdown, dumbbells were in charge.

Compared to something like coal, according to their own statistics, the health risks are tiny. How many millions have suffered from the fumes and airborne particles, died in mining catastrophes, been poisoned from town gas? Check it out. The problem of nuclear waste however has been addressed in principle with the advent of fourth generation reactors.
  • Advantages sought
    1. reducing the amount of time the waste remains radioactive
    2. improving the energy yield for the nuclear fuel
    3. increasing the variety of fuels that can be used to power the reactor
    4. allowing for reactors to use already present nuclear waste in its operations
Another (mildly amusing) complaint is that having taken the trouble to build nuclear reactors the silly-billies just use them to run steam engines. One way around that apparently is to increase operating temperatures so that instead of heat—which is used to boil water (or sodium or a lead/bismuth alloy) and run turbines—they'd produce ultra-violet light which could be converted more directly into electricity using the photo-electric effect. I looked this up before posting, something our communists seem loth to do, and imagine what happens is that the reactor gets hotter than red hot and hotter than white hot and turns into a giant blacklight then you set up some heavy duty solar panels (leftists love these things) to collect the UV and generate electricities.

Another benefit of Very High Temperature Reactors 1,000-1,500˚C is that hydrogen can be produced without oil refineries. You don't even need to look anything up! Here's what Stanford has to say:
Quote:
Benefits of the VHTR

The VHTR offers two advantages to modern day generation III reactor designs. The high temperature of the coolant exiting the reactor core enables high thermal efficiency for electricity generation, and can serve as process heat for hydrogen production.

Are leftists good for the environment? The track record is abysmal. Whether it's due to their delusions, or to the obvious absence of joined-up-thinking, or is an inherent aspect of their doctrine—forever appealing to 19th century dilettantism and rejecting trump cards out of hand—who knows? But even allowing that they may identify an environmental issue occasionally and occasionally be correct, to jettison solutions with no consideration (because of their dogma) is to shoot oneself in the foot. With an elephant gun. Absolutely.

Christians are not like that. And it's easy to see why. Not everything pretending to be science actually is science. It's right there in The Bible. Without due consideration, without reflection, how could we tell the difference?
I Timothy 6
20b Avoid profane and vain babblings
20c And oppositions of science falsely so called
21a Which some professing have erred concerning the faith.
