Bjorn Lomborg was interviewed this morning on Glenn Beck's radio program. He said that if you combined all the existing batteries in the United States (used to store solar and wind energy), they would power the country for a whole 14 seconds!

Mr. Lomborg also had the temerity to suggest the money used to fight "global warming" would be better spent supplying clean drinking water to third world countries.

But that would actually do something positive. Where is the opportunity for graft and virtue signalling? It would not play well on fakebook and twatter. How would we do an instagram of it to get upvoted from our 'friends'?
Mr. Lomborg actually knows what he is talking about and signed off on the whole green new deal nonsense a long time ago. Since he does nto support the narrative, but advocates actions that will actually make human lives better, the climate folks do not like him much.
He also pointed out the paris climate accord would have negligible effect 0.5 degrees, if abided perfectly

What was the roman term for what they are attempting?
I donate to Lomborg's think tank. He thinks like an economist- chiefly the cost/benefit of public policy decisions. That's why politicians and public policy people hate him...
The decline in COVID cases/day stopped this week. The second delta turned positive last week and the first delta turned positive yesterday. The behavior is general across all the states, too- almost all of them show the same behavior- the sudden decline reaches a valley floor in the last week except for the states in the upper midwest which reached their floor weeks ago.
It could be simply the support of the false positive rate is having a noticeable effect now. Similar behavior showed up in the numbers last Summer.
Not the entire answer but thats pretty rare

How many Tesla's would it take to store even 10% of the average power production of today's windmills and solar fields?
I came up with a number of around 2.5 million cars, and that is taking the batteries from 0 to full charge.
Incalculable

That is for just the US.
Is there enough lithium in the world to support the Green Nude Eel?
Well not literally, but practically.

Yes youve been more civil than he deserves.
The New York Times's article about the shenanigans at Smith College is highly recommended. Though in general it is very unsympathetic toward Smith's handling of the matter, this sentence does catch one's attention: "The story highlights the tensions between a student’s deeply felt sense of personal truth and facts that are at odds with it."
Deeply felt sense of personal truth? Isn't that what Stephen Colbert, in an earlier incarnation, derided as "truthiness"?
My daughter saw some comment on FcBk that Bill Gates believes methane from cows is a greater pollutant than car exhaust. It was answered: I’ll lock myself in an enclosed garage w/a cow- Bill w/a car and we’ll discuss results in the morning.
Bill Gates is pushing meatless meat- fabricated God only knows how. If the country- if the world- embraced such science, how would ppl self- sustain? As. W/GMOs that take whole cultural societies and prevent them from a sustainable way of Agricultural life- maybe one day so shall they become reliant upon others for meat. It seems implausible, yet so much of what is occurring today seemed too far out there even 4 yrs ago.
I do not trust anymore.

At least it will be a DC current, not interrupted by weather... climate change and other environmental and geographical factors. A credible local, temporal, niche solution. Also, is their viable energy potential measured in seconds or minutes? Quality of life in urban islands does not wait for in range clean, green, renewable drivers. That said, save a bird, a bat, stop tilting at, whack a windmill.

"Is there enough lithium in the world to support the Green Nude Eel?"
I would guess, no. There definitely isn't enough in proven reserves, though it is only recently that the element was in very high demand at larger scales, so reserves should rise with the price. The problem is the element is very diffuse in the crust and surface of the Earth. The oceans contain about 25 micromolar of lithium which is a quarter of a trillion tonnes, but concentrating and extracting that 25 micromolar solution takes enormous amounts of energy, and you still haven't processed it when you have the salt in hand.
My daughter saw some comment on FcBk that Bill Gates believes methane from cows is a greater pollutant than car exhaust
She's right. Methane is a highly effective first-order forcing of [catastrophic] [anthropogenic] climate cooling... warming... change. However, it's not just cows, who are only of interest in their diversity, but vegans who are physically incapable of efficiently digesting vegetable matter.
Ken B was once beat up by a baby, so all things are relative.

Good luck. I've been asking for the same for months. The man is dishonest.

I’ve been wondering- could someone explain the difference chemically of the sources of methane, or are they all the same? Swamps emit methane, ruminates, vegan buttholes- decomposing manure piles(going w/what I know- methane digesters are a big hit for large farms). Why target the cows? A Trojan horse??
Methane is supposed to accelerate the carbon cycle: considering everything has carbon in it. One would think industrial byproducts would be a bigger concern.

The thinking is that volatile organics compounds (VOC's) contribute more to warming than CO2. Then it gets to relative amounts. By volume, methane is the greatest VOC. There are other intrinsically worse ones: ethane, propane, etc., but their volumes are less than methane's. Still, the greatest greenhouse gas is by far deadly dihydrogen monoxide.
n.n. said, Methane is a highly effective first-order forcing of [catastrophic] [anthropogenic] climate cooling... warming... change."
I have a question. And it's a genuine question because I don't know the answer.
When people say this, and I've seen this assertion many times, are they talking about methane by itself? Or are they talking about methane in the context of our complicated atmosphere?
Here's the problem. Methane is a greenhouse gas. But so is water vapor. And we have a lot of water vapor in the atmosphere. It's unevenly distributed but there is a lot more water than methane (or carbon dioxide for that matter).
And as it happens the absorption spectrum of water vapor in the infrared (the greenhouse part) mostly overlaps with the absorption spectrum of methane. (And with carbon dioxide for that matter.)
So although methane is a significant greenhouse gas by itself, if it were by itself, how is it a significant greenhouse gas in our atmosphere when most of the greenhouse wavelengths have already been completely stripped out by the water vapor?
If something is already being completely absorbed by the atmosphere, how does adding another material that would absorb it change anything?
This seems like an essential global warming question. (And especially since the same logic would apply to carbon dioxide.) Now I've been paying attention, I think, and yet I don't know what the answer to this question is or where to go to find the answer.

It’s good you concede that you lied. Now you should apologize for doing so. This is something most of us learn in kindergarten.
It looks like Congress will take a look at creating new district and circuit court judges. I don’t see why a compromise couldn’t be reached in exchange for: 1) restoring the filibuster for nominees to those positions; 2) splitting the Ninth Circuit; and 3) barring national injunctions by District Court judges (or substantially limiting them.)

methane is odorless. It's the indoles, such as skatoles and the like that smell.
as to whether we should be "worried" about release of methane in the Arctic:
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2017/02/10/good-news-gas-hydrate-breakdown-unlikely-to-cause-massive-greenhouse-gas-release/
"The new review concludes that current warming of ocean waters is likely causing gas hydrate deposits to break down at some locations. However, not only are the annual emissions of methane to the ocean from degrading gas hydrates far smaller than greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere from human activities, but most of the methane released by gas hydrates never reaches the atmosphere. Instead, the methane often remains in the undersea sediments, dissolves in the ocean, or is converted to carbon dioxide by microbes in the sediments or water column."
That article is four years old, and a newer one from the Guardian raises an alarm, but it is couched in speculation:
https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/oct/27/sleeping-giant-arctic-methane-deposits-starting-to-release-scientists-find
"At this moment, there is unlikely to be any major impact on global warming, but the point is that this process has now been triggered. This East Siberian slope methane hydrate system has been perturbed and the process will be ongoing,” said the Swedish scientist Örjan Gustafsson, of Stockholm University, in a satellite call from the vessel."

* Hunter was also exchanging sexual text messages with Hallie's then-married sister Elizabeth Secundy around that time.
* In a 2016 text conversation recovered from his abandoned laptop hard drive, Hunter offered to teach Secundy 'how to masturbate'.
* Secundy, 49, who was married to husband Joel Secundy, referred to Hunter as her 'prince' and told him she loved him in the texts.

Mandrewa,
There are self-saturation effects for all the greenhouse gases, but those three don't have huge overlap in their IR sprectra. Water has two large band groups- one centered at 3800 reciprocal centimeters and another centered at 1600 reciprocal centimeters. Methane has a band centered at 3000 reciprocal centimeters and another at 1300- the one water band probably overlaps a big with the methane band at 1300 since it is very broad. Carbon dioxide has three sets of bands, but the two strongest are the ones at 2350 and 700.

Trump had a program to vaccinate nursing home residents and staff which is ending. Each nursing home has had a three day clinic to vaccinate staff and residents. But there are new residents and staff and there are residents and staffers who refused to be vaccinated at the time. Harrisbiden doesn't know what to do for this group now that the Trump program has ended. Most of the deaths were in nursing homes so this unnoticed program (which I understand began in December) may be the reason why covid seems less dangerous. Something should be done to carry on the good work in this sector where there have been so many deaths from covid - and we can count on the Cam and Sham Flim Flam Front not to do it.

Coming back to me now like Sol tasting strawberry on a spoon in Soylent Green, it was at the Kennedy Center. And admittedly, I was a little juiced from the wine at dinner.
Anyway we had seats in the front row (actually our seats were in the third tier, but we spied the empty seats during the intermission and went down and took them. Positioned there with a pleasant buzz from the additional wine at intermission, with the players just a few feet from us, we were treated to Bach's Brandenburg Concertos. To hear that sound bouncing back and forth was surreal. Every neuron in my brain was firing at an 11.

“Signs of improvement
Anecdotal evidence from second-round clinics now taking place suggests that vaccine uptake among staff is improving. The Associated Press reported that last week, in a meeting on vaccine policy, Amanda Cohn, the CDC's deputy director of immunization services, said more staffers get vaccinated when a second or third clinic is held at a home. And a CVS spokesperson told USA Today that they are seeing a higher uptake by staff members on their second visits.
Sondra Norder sees the improvements at St. Paul Elder Services in Wisconsin, where she is president and CEO. During the first on-site clinic at her skilled nursing facilities, only 66 percent of staff received a vaccine. On Monday, during the second clinic, that number jumped to 75 percent.”

Even California's second delta turned positive this weekend. They are reaching a floor, too, and actually saw the 7 day average rise a bit today, but I don't plot the individual state's deltas.

Thank you, Yancey. But are you sure that "those three don't have huge overlap in the IR spectra"?
I didn't mean to imply the I don't know anything about the subject. It's just I feel that I lack an adequate understanding.
I have seen graphs of the absorption of the infrared wavelengths for water vapor versus CO2. I know there is a huge overlap.
And just now I did search for "water absorption band" and found the Wikipedia article on "Electromagnetic absorption by water" and I found this statement in it:
"Carbon dioxide gas absorbs energy in some small segments of the thermal infrared spectrum that water vapor misses. This extra absorption within the atmosphere causes the air to warm just a bit more and the warmer the atmosphere the greater its capacity to hold more water vapor. This extra water vapor absorption further enhances the Earth's greenhouse effect."
The same article also claims that water vapor absorbs 70% of the incoming sunlight. (Is that the percentage of wavelengths or is the percent of the energy that is absorbed?) And that carbon dioxide is responsible for 26% of the greenhouse effect.
Now since I have seen how much water vapor strips out of the infrared, I wonder how 26% is possible. Three possible explanations occur to me.
a) Substantial greenhouse energy is being transferred in other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum than the infrared.
b) The distribution of water vapor is patchy and there are some parts of the atmosphere that are so dry that there is no water vapor to strip out the infrared. (This would be more difficult to model.)
c) The CO2 doesn't really take out 26% but instead this is the net effect because every little bit of warming causes more water to go into the air on average.
The spread declines as vaccinations mount. Could there be a reason?
The decline of spread started Jan, 8th. 2 weeks after Christmas, when a spike was predicted. Not so much predicted but a fait accompli.
Dr Makary of John Hopkins explains herd immunity is upon us, aided by vaccination.
All you have to do is explain why the drop occurred, and at the same time ignore herd immunity.
Still, the greatest greenhouse gas is by far deadly dihydrogen monoxide.
Water vapor as a greenhouse gas (unlike, say, CO2) is inherently self-limiting. If there's too much in the air, it simply condenses out — as rain, snow, or dew.
The cattle-farts-methane problem can likely be heavily alleviated by making cattle (et al.) digestion more efficient. The evolutionary problem has always been that no animal (from termites to cows) has the ability to directly digest cellulose — the principal structural component of many plants, especially plants such as grasses and trees (wood).
Any animal which was (evolutionarily) desirous of gaining sustenance from such materials has been forced to evolve complex stomachs and digestion processes that directly cultured bacteria that themselves could digest cellulose (via the bacterial enzyme cellulase).
While redesigning cattle's stomachs in detail would no doubt be a complex task, simply providing cattle with the ability to produce their own cellulase and hence directly digest grasses (via genetic engineering-in the gene for cellulase) would not.
Michael McNeil said, "Water vapor as a greenhouse gas (unlike, say, CO2) is inherently self-limiting. If there's too much in the air, it simply condenses out — as rain, snow, or dew."
Yes. And a dramatic example of that is a dew. Dew is water that has condensed out of the air.
But long before that point, although I need to confirm this, water vapor will have completely stripped out a significant portion of the infrared spectrum.
Our eyes can't see in the infrared. But we can construct instruments that can and if you were to look up in the sky at certain wavelengths it will be black because nothing is getting through the atmosphere at those wavelengths.
Water vapor's absorption bands completely cover methane's absorption bands and almost completely cover carbon dioxide's.
So if in a certain patch of the atmosphere there is an enough water vapor then how does methane add any greenhouse effect since the water has already stripping it all out?
Now I suspect that the greenhouse effect for carbon dioxide and methane is largely occurring in those portions of the atmosphere that are very dry and where water is not already stripping the energy out.
But I'd like to see that confirmed. And I have feeling that this is all quite important.
Gee, that Biden Bunch sound like fine, upstanding people, Mike Sylwester.

Karen B and the Resident Idiot make a good tag team, doncha think?
Both have seriously twisted minds combined with well below average IQs - a dangerous combination given their motivation to defend themselves after they make fools of themselves.
Mandrewa: Certainly, when it's cloudy, not just water vapor but water liquid and solid acts to strip out nearly all of the infrared radiation. We know this because when it's cloudy one obviously does not feel the sun's warmth on your face and body the way you do when it's clear.
As to whether that also occurs when it's clear but water vapor is (near) saturated, empirically I would say that the answer is no: because (I assert) one can still feel the sun's heat on you at such times (at least if the sun is up!). Nor is any more instrumentation required than that to make such a conclusion, I would say.
I agree that the answer is important.
Francisco drunk already? Drinking earlier in the day, not a good sign.
Michael, I'm not talking about clouds. Yes, of course clouds strip out the infrared and of course that has a big impact on the climate, and the climatic computer models because their resolution is too coarse to model clouds.
But let's not confuse the topic. Put clouds aside. They are a separate issue.
I'm talking about water vapor, which is invisible to your eyes, but is stripping out a significant portion of the infrared spectrum.
Now water vapor is not stripping out all of the infrared spectrum. I've been talking about those parts of the infrared spectrum that overlap with what methane and carbon dioxide will absorb.
I'm not sure what is the source of the sensation of heat that I feel on my skin on some days when the sun high in the sky. It may be that I'm directly sensing infrared radiation from the sun or it also might be caused by the absorption of visible and ultraviolet wavelengths in my skin. That would cause my skin to heat up also and be felt as heat. But I'm just speculating here. I don't really know.
I'm not sure either, Mandrewa. I do know that infrared radiation was discovered in the first place by a scientist who ran sunlight through a prism — and could feel the sun's heat on his face when he “looked” beyond the red in the spread-out spectrum.
