The Deliberately False Greenhouse Gas CO2 Experiment

Written by Geraint Hughes

This is a type of experiment which is quite often conducted by many whom teach greenhouse gas theory. The idea is that you demonstrate to observers that the presence of Carbon Dioxide in a bottle makes it warmer than another equally sized bottle containing just ordinary air from the atmosphere when you shine a light onto the bottles, showing greenhouse gas theory to be real.

What is Carbon Pollution?

Written by Hans Schreuder

An increasingly shrill climate alarmist crusade has told us that ‘carbon pollution’ is a great danger to our planet. To ‘prove’ their point they show images of black smoke. The inference being that carbon dioxide (CO2) is dirty and foul. It isn’t. Every breath we exhale is carbon dioxide. It is neither black and dirty nor dangerous to life. Co2 is  pumped into greenhouses to promote healthy plant growth.  In fact, the more CO2 we emit, the greener the earth becomes.

Scientists have created bacteria covered in tiny semiconductors that generate a potential fuel source from sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. The so-called “cyborg” bugs produce acetic acid, a chemical that can then be turned into fuel and plastic.

Where does quantum uncertainty come from?

Written by Ethan Siegel

“In the future, maybe quantum mechanics will teach us something equally chilling about exactly how we exist from moment to moment of what we like to think of as time.” –Richard K. Morgan

If you want to know where something is, you just measure it to greater and greater accuracy. Rulers can give way to calipers, microscopes, and even individual particles of light of ever-shorter wavelength.
