"Global Warming," Painting Your Roof White, and the Chattanooga Chu-Chu E-mail
Sunday, 07 June 2009 15:45

Steven Chu, entertainingly described as an “Energy Secretary”, says we can Save the Planet from “global warming” by painting our rooftops and roads white. He says making roofs and roads paler would have the same effect as taking every automobile in the world off the road for 11 years.

Rush Limbaugh, entertainingly as always, but pointedly, asks –

 “Now, would somebody explain to me how he knows this? … If we can do something that will effectively remove the carbon emissions of every car on the road for 11 years, then why are we doing anything else?  Why are we doing cap and trade?  Why are we getting rid of SUVs?  How much paint is this going to take, by the way? How much of a footprint does paint manufacturing leave?  … I need a scientist to answer this for me. I understand how clouds at altitude can help reflect the heat, but I want to know … where does that reflected heat go? … Are we being told here that reflected heat is not damaging at all, but direct heat is? It seems to me that, if we had ‘global warming’, wouldn’t we want dark roofs to absorb the heat?”

Christopher Monckton replies.

The day before yesterday they called it “global warming”. Yesterday they called it “climate change”. Today they call it “energy security”. Tomorrow they will call it what it is – absolute rubbish.

Science is not, repeat not, done by “consensus”, though politics is. The IPCC process, which aims at and then falsely claims “consensus”, is an explicitly political process, and not a scientific one.

Why Waxman/Markey Won't Work: A cost-effectiveness metric for CO2 mitigation policies E-mail

A simple, robust metric to analyze the cost-effectiveness of measures to mitigate anthropogenic CO2 emissions, expressed not – as now – in tonnes of CO2 emission foregone but in Kelvin degrees of warming prevented, is described, evaluated, and applied to various currently-proposed mitigation policies, all of which prove disproportionately costly and ineffective
