Supplementing For Human Control Factors

The Question remains!

No mater how you look at it. Becoming climate neutral is crucial to humanities survival.

What does it matter if “our footprint” as a civilization is contributing to global warming or global cooling? What does it matter if the science is absolute when determining civilizations effect, or the cyclical cycle of increased solar spot activity effect?

Some say empirical evidence,  from both written and geologic records, indicates global temperature modulates in cycles of warming and cooling, with 57 degrees Fahrenheit  as the normal mean temperature throughout a continuing 4500 year cycle. The current conjecture is, we may reach it’s recent past height set in 1100 B.C., again around 2030. There is also conjecture that the many volcano eruptions over past recorded history also played a role in rapid global temperature change.

In our time, a most significant climate control factor is human population .

“A scientific report commissioned by the US government has concluded there is “clear evidence” of climate change caused by human activities. The report, from the federal Climate Change Science Program, said trends seen over the last 50 years “cannot be explained by natural processes alone”. It found that temperatures have increased in the lower atmosphere as well as at the Earth’s surface.”¹

“The human population growth of the last century has been truly phenomenal. It required only 40 years after 1950 for the population to double from 2.5 billion to 5 billion. This doubling time is less than the average human lifetime. The world population passed 6 billion just before the end of the 20th century. Present estimates are for the population to reach 8-12 billion before the end of the 21st century. During each lecture hour, more than 10,000 new people enter the world, a rate of ~3 per second!

Of the 6 billion people, about half live in poverty and at least one fifth are severely undernourished. The rest live out their lives in comparative comfort and health.

The factors affecting global human population are very simple. They are fertility, mortality, initial population, and time. The current growth rate of ~1.3% per year is smaller than the peak which occurred a few decades ago (~2.1% per year in 1965-1970), but since this rate acts on a much larger population base, the absolute number of new people per year (~90 million) is at an all time high.”²

Hypothetically, If someone were to survive climate collapse, and in retrospect using simple minded deductions, look back and note that population has always been on the increase, and eventually we would be where we are today anyway; who could fault them after every possible stone was turned as first president in the effort to stem the tide.

Nature has it’s own way of maintaining balance.

Species responsibility demands action and movement toward human climate neutrality.

We face the evident melting polar and glacier ice, rising oceans, the real threat of disappearing sovereign nations (The Maldives), disappearing rivers, great rivers no longer reaching the sea, lack of fresh water, over use of non-renewable aquifers, disappearing streams and empty wells, deforestation, dying species both plant and animal, over use of available land, food shortage, homeless starving people, sickness, and death.

“What is really interesting at the moment is what is happening to our oceans. They are the Earth’s great heat stores. Pacific ocean (BBC) In the last few years [the Pacific Ocean] has been losing its warmth and has recently started to cool down.

According to research conducted by Professor Don Easterbrook from Western Washington University last November, the oceans and global temperatures are correlated. The oceans, he says, have a cycle in which they warm and cool cyclically. The most important one is the Pacific decadal oscillation (PDO).

For much of the 1980s and 1990s, it was in a positive cycle, that means warmer than average. And observations have revealed that global temperatures were warm too. But in the last few years it has been losing its warmth and has recently started to cool down.

These cycles in the past have lasted for nearly 30 years.

So could global temperatures follow? The global cooling from 1945 to 1977 coincided with one of these cold Pacific cycles. Professor Easterbrook says: “The PDO cool mode has replaced the warm mode in the Pacific Ocean, virtually assuring us of about 30 years of global cooling.”

So what does it all mean? Climate change sceptics argue that this is evidence that they have been right all along. They say there are so many other natural causes for warming and cooling, that even if man is warming the planet, it is a small part compared with nature.

But those scientists who are equally passionate about man’s influence on global warming argue that their science is solid.

The UK Met Office’s Hadley Centre, responsible for future climate predictions, says it incorporates solar variation and ocean cycles into its climate models, and that they are nothing new. In fact, the centre says they are just two of the whole host of known factors that influence global temperatures – all of which are accounted for by its models.

In addition, say Met Office scientists, temperatures have never increased in a straight line, and there will always be periods of slower warming, or even temporary cooling. What is crucial, they say, is the long-term trend in global temperatures. And that, according to the Met office data, is clearly up.

To confuse the issue even further, last month Mojib Latif, a member of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) says that we may indeed be in a period of cooling worldwide temperatures that could last another 10-20 years. Iceberg melting (BBC)

The UK Met Office says that warming is set to resume

Professor Latif is based at the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences at Kiel University in Germany and is one of the world’s top climate modellers. But he makes it clear that he has not become a sceptic; he believes that this cooling will be temporary, before the overwhelming force of man-made global warming reasserts itself.

So what can we expect in the next few years?

Both sides have very different forecasts. The Met Office says that warming is set to resume quickly and strongly. It predicts that from 2010 to 2015 at least half the years will be hotter than the current hottest year on record (1998).

Sceptics disagree. They insist it is unlikely that temperatures will reach the dizzy heights of 1998 until 2030 at the earliest. It is possible, they say, that because of ocean and solar cycles a period of global cooling is more likely.

One thing is for sure. It seems the debate about what is causing global warming is far from over. Indeed some would say it is hotting up.”³

A Possible Small Window of Opportunity…

“Air pollution can affect our health in many ways with both short-term and long-term effects. Different groups of individuals are affected by air pollution in different ways. Some individuals are much more sensitive to pollutants than are others. Young children and elderly people often suffer more from the effects of air pollution. People with health problems such as asthma, heart and lung disease may also suffer more when the air is polluted. The extent to which an individual is harmed by air pollution usually depends on the total exposure to the damaging chemicals, i.e., the duration of exposure and the concentration of the chemicals must be taken into account.

Examples of short-term effects include irritation to the eyes, nose and throat, and upper respiratory infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia. Other symptoms can include headaches, nausea, and allergic reactions. Short-term air pollution can aggravate the medical conditions of individuals with asthma and emphysema. In the great “Smog Disaster” in London in 1952, four thousand people died in a few days due to the high concentrations of pollution.

Long-term health effects can include chronic respiratory disease, lung cancer, heart disease, and even damage to the brain, nerves, liver, or kidneys. Continual exposure to air pollution affects the lungs of growing children and may aggravate or complicate medical conditions in the elderly. It is estimated that half a million people die prematurely every year in the United States as a result of smoking cigarettes.”⁴

Much of  the carbon culture or climate, smells of “dirty business” who’s only aim is turning scarcity into abundance at the expense of the whole. Where is the value in that? …

We have knowledge of known unused, and new developing technologies that can make “Our Energy Climate Change Footprint” a non issue.

Is it not true; the continued development, production, and distribution of  such technologies themselves would produce abundance beyond measure…

Re-write the future…

All anyone needs for growth is food for nourishment, a place of rest and good association.

Do we fade away, or live to give another day?

The Anatomy Of A Silent Crisis

For publication I am compiling a  list of past, current, developed, and promising, free energy technologies that could serve to reduce the human climate effect.  Send your list of clean energy technologies for compiling and presentation before Copenhagen to clean@environmentaide.org

Many remember first hearing of the wonders of magnetic propulsion, when The first commercial Maglev “people-mover” became a carrier  in 1984 in Birmingham, England. Other stator driven applications could include automobiles, trucks, and boats… Howard Johnson inventor of Spintronics, a unique magnetic gate which  formed the basis of many of his successful motors, was fond of saying “conventional magnetic theory and the real magnetic theory are about as much alike as a Venetian Blind is to a blind Venetian.”

Maglev Train – complete video presentation

From The Republic of  Georgia, Russian inventor, Tariel Kapanadze and his group have come up with one of many promising devices to aide in our move to clean free energy for all. This one capable of capturing enough zero point energy or free energy from the wheelworks of nature to power 60 homes… Perhaps not very much fun to watch, but proven possible…

Kapanadze’s third-party testing 100 kW free energy device

This solution was found in a few minutes on the Internet. How many can you find? Combustion technologies can become a thing of the past, and the CO2 from a summer campfire a harmless pastime.

In the words of Author, Scientist, Former Astronaut, and International Speaker Dr. Brian O’Leary…  “Earlier in 2009,  the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) solicited concept papers for funding innovative energy technology research and development.  Some of us who have followed free energy developments were cautiously optimistic about these developments, because, up until now, the DoE has been in denial about anything beyond solar and wind, and even spends a pittance on the traditional renewables compared to the untold hundreds of billions of dollars they spend on research on fossil fuel technologies (hydrocarbons) and nuclear power and nuclear weapons.

So my colleague Wade Frazier and I decided to draft a concept paper to the DoE. Our idea was really quite simple: (1) poll the American public about their attitudes toward the POSSIBILITY of a breakthrough decentralized clean energy economy and making the transition from our current polluting multi-trillion dollar energy mix as painless as possible; and (2) advising the DoE about the most promising R&D options, and safe implementation and transition strategies, free of vested interests.  Part of our philosophy in designing this task was that, by its very nature, if our future energy were to be truly “free,” then our own effort should be of minimal cost for the taxpayer.  We therefore asked for $1 (plus occasional travel, as needed) to support our proposed task.

Needless to say, the proposal was turned down, but we can only hope that some technologies will be supported by the DoE under this program.  Or is this effort just another attempt to cover up the most promising technologies?  Time will tell.”

“If we become increasingly humble about how little we know, we may be more eager to search.” ~ Sir John Templeton

“We have come to this Rock, to record here our homage for our Pilgrim fathers; our sympathy in their sufferings; our gratitude for their labors; Our admiration of their virtues; our veneration for their piety; and our attachment to those principles of civil and religious liberty, which they encountered, the dangers of the ocean, the storms of heaven, the violence of savages, disease, exile, and famine, to enjoy and establish.

And we would leave here, also, for the generations which are rising up rapidly to fill our places, some proof, that we have endeavored to transmit the great inheritance unimpaired; that in our estimate of public principles, and Private virtue; in our veneration of religion and piety; in our devotion to civil and religious liberty; in our regard to whatever advances human Knowledge, or improves human happiness, we are not altogether unworthy of our origin.” –Daniel Webster

WE CAN IF WE TRY!

YES WE CAN!

There is enough free energy available today on the planet to never again have to extract the means of creating power with a price tag…

Alternative energy sources pushed by the establishment such as hydrogen, biomass, and even nuclear are highly inefficient, dangerous and exist only to perpetuate the profit structure the industry has created. When we look beyond the propaganda and self serving solutions put forth by the energy companies we find a seemingly endless stream of clean abundant and renewable energy for generating power.

Solar and wind energy are well known to the public but the potential of these mediums remains unexpressed.

Solar energy derived from the sun has such abundance that one hour of light at high noon contains more energy than what the whole world consumes in a year. If we can capture one hundredth of one percent of this energy we would never have to use oil, gas, or anything else. The question is not availability but the technology to harness it. There are many advanced mediums today that accomplish just that if they were not hindered to compete with market share with the established energy power structures.

Then there is wind energy. Wind energy has long been denounced as weak and due to being location driven impractical. This is simply not true, the US Department of Energy admitted in 2007 that if wind was fully harvested in just three of Americas fifty states it could power the entire nation.

Then there are the rather unknown mediums of tidal and wave power.

Tidal power is derived from tidal shifts in the ocean. Installing turbines that capture this movement generates energy. In the United Kingdom forty two sites are currently noted as available forecasting that thirty four percent of all the UK’s energy could come from tidal power alone.

Wave power that extracts energy from the surface motions of the oceans is estimated to have a potential of 80,000 terawatts a year. This means that 50% of the world’s energy needs could be produced by this means alone.

It is important to note solar, wind, tidal, and wave power requires virtually no preliminary energy to harness , unlike coal, oil, gas, biomass, hydrogen, and all the others.

In combination these four mediums alone could power the world forever.

That being said there happens to be another form of clean renewable energy that trumps them all; geothermal.

Geothermal energy utilizes a process known as heat mining by a simple process using water to create energy. In 2006 an MIT report on geothermal energy found that 13,000 ZJ (zettajoules) are currently available in the Earth with the possibility of 2000 ZJ being easily tappable with available technology. The total energy consumption of all the countries on the planet is approximately 0.5 ZJ a year. This means about 4000 years of planetary power could be harnessed in this medium alone.

When we understand that the Earth’s heat generation is constantly renewed. This energy is really limitless and could be used forever. These energy sources are only a few of the available sources and as time goes on we will discover more.

The grand realization is that we have total energy abundance without the need of pollution, energy conservation, or in fact a price tag.

Today’s economies exist only for profit not the good of the people or the planet. It is only the need for profit and the assumed or created scarcity of resources that keep our current flawed economic system from evolving to the next logical conclusion.

Featured on The Larry King Show three times thirty years ago; The-Venus-Project is still alive and even more salient and timely now.

Thirty years ago entrenched values, a strong sense of security, the political fore scope, and a refusal to consider the future costs of current and ongoing practices on future developments, considered what  Jacque Fresco presented as solutions for humanity novel ideas .It is a direction that entails nothing less than the total redesign of culture, that designs out or eliminates the worlds shortcomings we faced and face today.

Some might say impossible, but on close inspection it’s feasible provided you are willing to give up all preconceived notions and conventional thinking.

Many concerned today with the serious problems facing modern society, unemployment, violent crime, replacement of humans by technology, over-population and a decline in the Earth’s ecosystems need to re-examine the values of current systems and the stark reality that they don’t work.

The constant cycle of boom and bust is not natural, it is man made for the creation of scarcity and the accumulation of wealth and the debt incurred from the concomitant cycle will eventually lead to an unrecoverable crash.

Jacque Fresco presents plans that resolves all problems that amount to scarcity of any kind, by introducing a never attempted other than during war time, resource based economy actively engaging in the research development and application of workable solutions. Through abundance the use of innovative approaches to social awareness, educational incentives, and the consistent application of the best that science and technology can offer directly to the social system, Jacque Fresco offers a comprehensive plan for social reclamation in which human beings, technology, and nature will be able to coexist in a long-term, sustainable state of dynamic equilibrium.

The answer to the question does the Earth possess enough resources to create abundance without a price tag and without the need of submission to employment is yes.

From the realization that technology frees us and increases our quality of life we can realize the focus of intelligent management of Earth’s resources is our only logical course to long term prosperity into the milleniums to come.

In a monetary system everything has a financial cost or implied value, including you, your children and their children to come who’s contributions can be borrowed upon by the system. In effect they become debt slaves.

Where building blocks or material resources are concerned they only have value if there is an assumed or created scarcity. If everything was plentiful like air and water there would be no reason to sell anything.

With the advancement of automation, machinery, and technology relieving humans of labour the unfolding social aspects would have no reason for money.

A resource based economy is concerned with the well being of the people and their supporting biosphere.

At present we don’t have to burn fossil fuels or use anything that would contaminate the environment

Mark Goldes Explains We Already Possess the Means To Take The First Steps

What follows is an audio interview with Mark Goldes, known for his work with superconductors and as a government contractor. Mark explains even though leading figures in the disciplines endorse and advocate the advances in new science necessary to overcome our current environmental crisis current conventional thinking and approaches are the greatest obstacles to advancement in the areas of energy and environmental science.

Mark talks about magnetic energy and ZPE (zero point energy) first documented in 1926 by Hans Coler,  also known as “space energy”, “energetic vacuum” or “quantum vacuum”, abundant and everywhere in the universe, and no longer fringe science.

Mark goes on to say we have been using up the Earths non renewable fossil fuels that are running out and now threaten life on our planet and warns as others do that evidence suggests that we could be nearing an irreversible change, threatening all life on our planet today.

Mark timelines the advent of ZPE from 1926 through WWII when it became classified information, onward until today with ranging abilities to replace all current used energy technologies. He further elucidates that ZPE devices can be manufactured in all current electrical production plants today and can be available as early as next year.

Introduced is the groundbreaking work of Giasuddin Kachi of Bangladesh who after 17 years of research created a process for capturing ZPE with the use of a magnetic energy conversion system that produces electricity without any need for fuel.

So why haven’t we heard about it and why is the world not running with the “new ball”? Conventional thinking and the arrogance it engenders says it’s not possible.

What’s next for Magnetic Power Inc.! A hybrid electric ZPE car that never needs to be plugged in  hopefully appearing in the next 12 months. A car that generates surplus electricity that local utility companies could buy. Other estimates of later developments where the ZPE module replaces the electric engine could enable an owner to distribute energy from a parked car without plugging it in. The technology is already available. You could even use it to power your home or cottage or for emergency power in times of need.
