Stratospheric aerosol injection is the latest proposed method to save civilization from human-induced climate change. I jokingly say that the climate change agenda believes they can simply throw money at the sky to change the weather, and I suppose there is a little truth in every “just kidding” as this method is precisely that.
Volcanoes produce clouds of sulfur dioxide, naturally injecting converted gas into the stratosphere, forming sulfate aerosols that reflect sunlight back to space. Scientists believe that this naturally occurring phenomenon can be replicated. Simply sending sulfur dioxide into the air would not work as it produces solar and terrestrial heat and would actually create a warming effect. Scientists proposed an alternative that involves diamond dust.
As explained in Life Science: “The team compared the cooling efficiency of diamond particles with that of aluminum and calcite particles using an Earth system model that simulates the full climate response of an intervention. They found that the quantity of diamond dust needed to cool the planet by 1.8 F — 5.5 million tons per year — was about one-third the amount of other materials needed to achieve the same cooling effect.”
Therefore, high-altitude aircrafts would need to fly around Earth’s orbit to sprinkle diamond dust constantly. The costs would be outrageous and scientists say this method would merely “buy us time” as no amount is enough to change mother nature. A 2020 study drastically underestimated the cost of this ridiculous idea, stating it would cost $175 trillion over a 65-year period. They could use SAI with sulfur dioxide as an alternative for a mere $18 billion per year.
No amount of funding will allow governments to play God with the universe. The climate is changing on target, as weather has always and will always be a naturally occurring phenomenon. It is downright shameful that these “scientists” are imagining outrageous scenarios fueled by fear-mongering to alter the planet at our expense.
Was listening about Alberta MLA wanting to have re-reimbursement for e-bike or scooter rentals. I thought for sure it was an NDP member (wrongfully thought it was Janis Irwin although could be on committee) but imagine my surprise when it was a Grande Prairie MLA.
An Alberta legislative committee is exploring whether taxpayers should cover the cost of e-bike and e-scooter trips taken by MLAs and caucus staff. The bipartisan committee unanimously passed a motion to investigate corporate agreements with micro-mobility companies like Bird Canada, Lime, and Neuron Mobility.Key details regarding the proposal:The Motion: United Conservative backbencher Nolan Dyck pushed for the exploration, citing e-bikes and e-scooters as cheap, fast transit options in cities.Current Status: No decision has been finalized. MLAs currently can only expense taxis, car rentals, and certain airfares.The Obstacle: A legislative report advised against it, as micro-mobility companies generally require riders...

Good morning, C&C, it’s Monday! Our regularly scheduled programming —part II of our investigation into the deep state’s Reckoning™— has been shifted to tomorrow. I could not overlook the virtually impossible confluence of blessings that attended the President’s 80th birthday weekend, coming as it does just weeks before the Nation’s blockbuster 250th anniversary. Strap in, today’s seemingly unrelated stories are going to knock your leg warmers off.

Regular readers know that I have something of a dot-connection impulse, or possibly an obsession. (We don’t know yet.) This one I can’t prove. I mean that proving it is impossible. Proving the existence of a lucky president falls into the hazy Twilight Zone beyond the boundaries of conventional science. But the dots are right there. We’ll prime the dot-connection lab table with this uncharacteristically chipper headline from PBS: “Trump ...
