Serious concerns about "renewable" energy

#1 Postby coriolis » Tue Jan 18, 2005 12:22 pm

Geophysicist Ivanna Makeastir of the Budapest Polytechnic Institute has released a study which raised disturbing concerns about the use of “renewable” energy resources.

Among the findings is a prediction that unfettered growth in geothermal heat extraction will cool magma beneath the continents. This will increase the viscosity of the magma, increasing the frictional effect with the underside of the crustal plates. In addition, the cooling of the uppermost portions of the magma will strengthen the convective currents within the magma. “The result will be a drastic increase in earthquakes and volcanic activity,” Makeastir reported in an interview with the Romanian Journal, Magma Currents. Another effect, which has a 50% probability of happening is that the increased convection, coupled with the increased frictional effect could cause a rapid slowing of the earths rotation. This would be bad for people that use sundials, but could be good for people who like to sleep in, she reported. On the other hand, though, this could increase the rotational velocity. This would be bad for both sundial users, and late risers.

In addition, the resultant cooling of the earths crust will cause more snow to stick, increasing solar reflectivity, and causing a quick return to a permanent glacial condition. She claims to be the first to name this event a “more-snow-on-the-ground-because-of-crustal-cooling Winter.

She predicts that increased use of solar collection systems will reduce solar heat reaching the earths surface, thereby further cooling the average temperature of the earth.

Another finding is a prediction that exponential growth in wind turbines will cause weather stasis. She predicts that continual removal of energy from global circulation will eventually drag all circulation to a standstill. The result will be a catastrophic cessation of all weather, and loss of millions of jobs in the weather forecasting industry.

Makeastir advocates that humanity extract “every last drop” of oil from the earth. “Oil is a natural lubricant and it facilitates continental drift and the resultant seismic activity. Seismic activity is bad, she claims. The heat produced during combustion of fossil fuels releases heat into the environment which would delay any cooling off. Finally fossil fuels are good for the weather forecasting industry because of the demand for “experts” for the global warming controversy.

So, doesn't that in itself affect the weather, just like solar and wind energy? There's a cause and affect to everything.
