You talk WORLD pollution but then exclude China and Indai and other emerging countries. If you had read my responses you would have figured out I expect what people say and do to be consistent. I have not criticized your life style, but have on logic holes.
I can't change what goes on in China, only in my own environment, that's the best anyone can do.
Outside of possible CC effects would CO2 be considered a pollutant? I do not argue with heavy metal pollution. Many more of your post deal with CC/CO2 for which you have no data to support, nor are people doing doing much research to find out what really is going on. You may be fine with that but I am not. If you are really worried about world pollution, concrete data would make the job infinitely easier to get the rest of the world on board.
What did I refer to? Acid rain, smog, etc. Let me say this one more time, I'm not interested in CC persay, I'm interested in the pollution man is bringing to the table and how, on a personal level, I can address it.
Mercury, lead, chromium, etc. Now you may say that mercury is an element but if a truck load of mercury spilled on your back yard it would be pollution.
What You Need to Know About Mercury in Fish and Shellfish
Do not eat Shark, Swordfish, King Mackerel, or Tilefish because they contain high levels of mercury.
All those fish are high on the food chain and the mercury accumulates as we move up the food chain.
Care to list the promary pollants you are worried about and what you are doing to improve the amount of polluting going on in the world.
See above.
I'm net zero, actually I'm below that, I sell clean energy back to the grid. Would you like to talk about the pollution from coal stacks that supply over 50% of this countries energy?
Took up assembly as a hobby in 1983 in a TMS9900 CPU. Quite in 1987 or so due to time constraints. Learned Progress 4GL by reading a book. Passed MSCE without going to class. How much of your work have you picked up by reading book and be productive at same?
I could as easily asked you about epitaxial layers on 'P' type metal oxide silicon field effect transistors with respect to the Miller Effect, capacitance loading and shoot through on SMPS power supplies or CNC and cemented carbide machining of 74PH stainless steels but you missed my point which is that science is a big field and we all have our areas of knowledge.
And yes I've learned several high level programming languages on my own and sold designs based on the knowledge. Do you think everyone who goes to school for a field stops learning while the technology is moving forward?
There's a huge difference between a hobby and fabricating a design for industry.
My point is that, I have read your posts. I don't see any evidence that you read mine very close because of some many of questions go unanswered. Do you read the CC articles the same way. If you did you should have the answers or if not broaden your reading sources.
ONE MORE TIME. I'm not interested in CC. I think we should address pollution on an individual level where we can do the most good. I'm not about to get into a nebulous discussion about the salient point of a subject that I have marginal interest in. We might as well be talking about matter at the rim of black holes for all I care.
Again, as I've said before my OPINION is that GW is a 'red herring' promulgated with the intent of establishing the false conclusion that if the planet isn't getting hotter than we shouldn't worry about all the pollution that's contaminating it.
But maybe I didn't put a lot of thought into your posts because you tried to bait me more than once.... mea culpa
