Bill Gates Starts Billion Dollar Climate Change Fund

Lord of Planar said:
I am fascinated by what I have read of them, but concerned also. They appear to be safer, but I wonder what the total costs end up being.

Have any well researched numbers on it by chance?

The costs will be in Chinese Yuan, because any innovative technology in the energy arena will be produced by foreign nations, since the US has a high proportion of climate science denying libertarians.

That doesn't matter as much as the costs involved for the electricity they produce.

Have any well researched numbers on it by chance? (2nd time)

The only numbers I have seen are preliminarily numbers that are often a very low approximation of actual costs once built.

That is why I specified "well researched."

Maybe for once, you should prove that you are something other than what we all see you as.

All I said is that it's being developed in China. And that's where the funding is.

I think you might want to throttle back on the Bourbon.

Know what? When that man said that he was talking about a rube being scammed in a sideshow, not one of the self-made richest people in the country. Anyone needs to have a healthy draught of purple kool-aide to think that climate-change denial blogs make a fool of Bill Gates. I've been keeping track, and the internet dumpster-diving has been coming up embarrassingly empty-handed for the deniers lately.

So you admit. You have no idea how expensive the electricity from these would be.

No. I have no interest in doing your homework assignments.

Wow.

You advocate something you don't know the costs of.

I would like the idea of Thorium as well, but I want to see the numbers. Through all my searches, I have not seen a comprehensive cost breakdown. You see. I care. You don't.

Why are you so unconnected to the real world?

Ah. I forget.

Oregon legalized pot.

Explains a lot.

I'm sure most the people reading this are laughing at you, as I am.

You have proved your point. That you don't care about facts. Just what something sound like.

Gates is a fool if he has fallen for the man-made-global-warming hoax

What part of it are you calling a hoax?

The generalization you say is rather inaccurate. The hoax should be limited to the severity of AGW, not AGW itself.

The part about humans being a significent factor in climate change and that global warming will someday make the earth uninhabitable

Having watched Microsoft's predatory business practices, during Gates time in control,
I suspect Gates thinks he has found a way to capitalize on peoples fear.
Weather that fear is based on reality is irrelevant.

But we are a significant factor, as significant generally means a small anyway.

You just set yourself up for unnecessary arguments when you leave it so vague.

Not in your case since you have challenged me on this before and already know what I mean

What the radical environmentalists are doing is making doomsday predictions for the distant future that demand big changes in society today

Yes, the doomsday stuff is a total joke. I'm just asking you choose your words more carefully. You know what you mean, but others may think you man something else.

"Hoax" is an honest description of the radical environmentalist agenda

The Church of AGW dictates, full acceptance of all of the catastrophic predictions, or you are a heretic.
I guess I just have to resign myself to heretic status!
