The politicians and the industrialists are not promoting solar power and are not trying to sell it through their media to the public because doing that might jeopardize a portion of their inflowing megabucks...

Solar power's been around for a long time but nobody seems to take it seriously (probably thanks to the big oil companies out there). Everyone is oil crazy now though. For that matter, most Americans are brainwashed into buying huge SUVs rather than compact cars because they're sheeple.

Originally posted by bloculaAnd what about the so called oil crisis of the 1970's and the big push for compact cars back then? what was up with that? was it all lie? and if so,what for? and now theres much more people and many more vehicles and suddenly a lot more available oil? Somethings really wrong...edit on 17-5-2012 by blocula because: (no reason given)
Peak Oil has passed and we are in the age of Hard Oil. Profit-seeking companies drill in difficult, deep water environments because easy oil can no longer supply the world demand. We – you and me – create that demand. New Zealand exports crude oil but we import far more. We buy it on a world market increasingly supplied from deep water oil wells. Is it ethically acceptable to import oil yet ban drilling in our own territory? Where’s the moral high ground in chaining yourself to a drill ship if your lifestyle involves international air travel and cars?
Peak Coal is probably 100-200 years away so there’s a lot of CO2 emissions to come. Unlike oil, coal is widely distributed around the globe in large quantities, easily accessible. Densely populated, flat, dry countries, rich and poor, rely on coal for their electricity generation (South Africa & Poland > 90%; China > 80%; Australia, India, Kazakhstan, Israel > 70%; USA, Germany 50%) and they are not going to give it up. What right do we have to tell people in poor countries that they cannot aspire to a fraction of the lifestyle we take for granted? Should we point them at nuclear power?
The manufacture of concrete and steel requires vast quantities of coal and so far there are no practical alternative technologies. It’s been suggested we should close the Glenbrook steel mill – if we did, would we import steel? Would it be ethically acceptable to transfer our share of pollution to a less efficient steel mill in a poor factory country? How can we rebuild Christchurch and prepare Wellington for the Big One without the use of concrete and steel? By the way, processing our clean, green dairy, wool and meat exports uses large quantities of coal and gas.
The elephant in the room is transport fuel manufacture from coal – an attractive option economically for the age of extreme oil. Biofuels – great stuff in principle but there’s practical problems. Remember ethanol from corn? Waste gases? Sewage pond bugs? I invite you to do the numbers on volumes. Woody biomass has promise but how much of our country are you prepared to see under pine trees?

You mean Throw Away Your Career "by making such a momentous discovery!"
People have done a lot less and have lost a lot more.
Read Cremo's books on Forbidden Archaeology...
Extremely overrated,imo....But back on track...Every single world power that has ever existed on earth,every single dominating civilization,is now gone,either wiped out by war and genocide,erased and annihilated by natural cataclysms,or forcibly absorbed into another culture and someday the usa will exist no more,from either or any combination of the above mentioned calamities...

Now if I were to pull a hoax... Say that I unearthed the remains of a 10-footer mummy in my own back yard... I bet a whole squad of Men in Black would appear to shut me up. Hmm. That might be worth putting on video with hidden cameras eh! As Proof that government silencers do exist... Of course by the time the video actually got out, I don't think there would be any more Captain LJB posting around ATS, or for that matter ever having lived where he reportedly lived!

I go by the information presented not by the person presenting it.
Might as well listen to a...beating heart instead, right?
The royal bloodline atlanteans who escaped the destruction of atlantis and became the rulers of babylon, sumeria, egypt and central america,probably hoarded all the gemstones,gathered them up and took them away when they fled.Just like their royal bloodline descendants are doing right now,our current elite world leaders,who have directed their medias to relentlessly proclaim to their sheeple "sell your unwanted gold!" "get quick cash now!" over and over again and thats splashed all over magazines, newspapers, billboards, television and radio,day after day,night after night,we see it and hear it everywhere all the time and hmmmm? does it take a rocket scientist to figure out why they are doing that to us?
