Earth – too big to fail?

Adirondack Citizen says: A guest commentary in the Adirondack Daily Enterprise makes a couple of good points, especially re-purposing petroleum but there is no such thing as clean coal. However, clean coal burning technology to reduce emissions can be achieved. Nevertheless, the emphasis on carbon reduction is ridiculous. Science has not shown that carbon is a ‘greenhouse gas’ and in fact carbon dioxide is such a small percentage of our atmosphere that working to reduce it is a truly worthless endeavor. What needs to be scrubbed from coal burning emissions is the sulfur, nitrogen and mercury that are killing our brook trout, red spruce and common loons. It’s too bad the Wild Center, Paul Smith’s College, Adirondack Council and other Adirondack environmental advocates have bought into consensus instead of science. How about doing something that will actually benefit our dying ecosystems?

Climategate Circles the Globe, Adirondack Council Still Peddles Carbon Reduction Certificates

> Climategate e-mails sweep America, scuttle Cap & Trade
> Five Aussie MP’s resign in disgust over carbon tax
> Rigging a Climate ‘Consensus’   

   Adirondack Citizen says: Anthropogenic Global Warming theory has been completely discredited yet the Adirondack Council, which purchased 3,000 ‘carbon offset’ credits through RGGI (the Ridiculous Greenhouse Gas Initiative), continues to peddle ‘Carbon Reduction Certificates’ on its website (makes a ‘great’ Christmas gift!) 
   Talk about passing worthless paper! Not that it ever had any value to begin with, but if Adirondack Council doesn’t remove this scam from its website it will deservedly see the organization’s credibility suffer. And that would be a shame for the Adirondacks.
