Is Anthropogenic (Human-Caused) Global Warming/AGW Falsifiable?

[jc456]

Still pretty sure he said "all":

You should learn to read. He said all Iceland’s

 

[Crick]

sure, there are other hot spots on earth. Iceland is the only place where all power comes from geothermal. They also use it for hot water and baking. Iceland is an amazing place.

He did say "all" and he's wrong.

No, Iceland does not produce all of its power from geothermal energy, but it does produce a significant amount:

• Renewable energy
  Iceland's power supply is almost entirely renewable, with about 70% coming from hydropower and 30% from geothermal power.
  
  
  
• Geothermal activity
  Iceland's location on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and over a volcanic hotspot makes it geologically active, with underground water reservoirs heated to hundreds of degrees Fahrenheit.
  
  
  
• Uses for geothermal energy
  Iceland uses geothermal energy for:
  
  • Electricity: Geothermal power facilities generate electricity.
    
    
    
  • Space heating: Iceland is a leader in using geothermal energy for space heating.
    
    
    
  • Smelting: Geothermal energy powers the smelting process in Iceland's aluminum manufacturing sector.
    
    
    
  • Processing and production: Geothermal energy is used in the processing and production of salt, seaweed, pet food, and fish farms.
    
    
    
  • Heating greenhouses: Geothermal energy heats the greenhouses that grow Iceland's fruit, vegetables, and flowers.
    
    
    
  • Tourism: Geothermal energy is used in hot springs that attract visitors.
    
    
    
  • Heating cold water: Geothermal steam is used to heat cold water in areas like the Reykjanes Peninsula and Reykjavík.

Geothermal power is produced in many locations around the world, including:

• 
  The Geysers, California
  The world's largest geothermal power plant, located in Northern California's Mayacama Mountains. The Geysers has been producing electricity since 1960.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Iceland
  The Hellisheidi Power Station is one of the world's largest geothermal power plants.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Philippines
  The Malitbog Geothermal Station and the Tiwi Geothermal Complex are among the world's largest geothermal power plants.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Indonesia
  The Darajat Geothermal Facility and the Wayang Windu Geothermal Plant are among the world's largest geothermal power plants.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Italy
  The Larderello geothermal power plant is one of the world's largest geothermal power plants.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Mexico
  The Cerro Prieto geothermal power plant is one of the world's largest geothermal power plants.
  
  
  
• 
  
  United States
  Other geothermal power plants in the United States include Ormesa and Patua.
  

Other countries that produce geothermal power include:
Kenya, El Salvador, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Japan, and Türkiye.


In the United States, most geothermal power plants are located in western states and Hawaii. This is because geothermal energy resources are closer to the earth's surface in these regions.

He said all

Thanks. I think that makes it unanimous.

 

[jc456]

Thanks. I think that makes it unanimous.

In Iceland. You demofks have a hard time with sentences

 

[Redfish]

Pretty sure you said "all":

my error, should have said virtually all. happy now?

 

[Grumblenuts]

I'm always happy!

 

[Dagosa]

my error, should have said virtually all. happy now?

Virtually all of what you post is a lie.

 

[EMH]

Virtually all of what you post is a lie.

Are you talking to the mirror again?

 

[Dagosa]

No dufus. Even virtually all is a lie. But of course, you’re too effin lazy.

 

[Dagosa]

my error, should have said virtually all. happy now?

Even that’s wrong.

Unlike the annual $10 billion or so fossil fuels have been receiving for decades.

No oil company receives a "subsidy" from the federal (U.S.) government. A tax break afforded EVERY business is not a "subsidy." The government doesn't send oil companies a check like they do so-called "green" industries.

Oil companies are headed by businessmen who are prone to follow (at least in the open) current fashionable trends. No oil company REALLY believes in the future of "green energy" with the possible exception of nuclear.

You’re funny…..stupid, but funny. Let’s see, according you Humpers, it’s a fraud, now it’s a trend. So, according to you, everyone is investing in renewables, not because they work, but because it’s a trend. What a dip shit.

Don’t be ridiculous..of course they do. They have for a long time. You can’t even look it up ? They get direct subsidies ( payments) and indirect in the form of tax breaks….they are still called subsidies. Dumbo, the state and feds also subsidize EVs made in America in the form of tax breaks. They are still call subsidies…dah.

Electric school buses just sit attached to their chargers about 70% of the school year and 99% of summer, acting as massive storage batteries to cover periods of peak demand.

BS. That's virtually TWICE the entire federal budget. Are you REALLY this stupid...or are the Yale researchers? Fossil fuels PAY more into government than they received in tax breaksf.

You need to actually read the article. They're talking worldwide and not just including explicit subsidies but tax breaks and the costs of environmental damage.

All of the EV subsides and spending should be documented, because when it comes out that W and homO both knew Co2 Fraud was complete fraud, those who hid that truth are liable for everything wasted by the taxpayer on it...

So you understand the ocean at the equator is heated by the sun more than the ocean by the poles? Do you understand this? Are you too dumb to know this?
