Gobal Warming and Mag-Lev Skim Boards vs HPMs and the Ukraine War

 The pre-industrial era atmospheric CO2 level was 280 ppm. Today it is 427.40 parts per million (ppm). I remember just a decade or so ago it was 399. So it keeps going up steadily. I like science though I am Christian too- I wrote three books explaining why science and Christianity aren't incompatible.

Not that I would suggest that mag-lev skim board wouldn't be fun if portable tracks could be made. Instead of pallet jacks moving stuff around shop floors mag-lev freight boards could be placed- especially with wireless charging and powering at short range some sort of safe, coded tech could be made to power a freight or skim board through the floor that is the repelling surface itself.

It would be a better direction for society to go than the research by military firms on how to make High Powered Microwave fields or beams to destroy drone electrical fields at short range. Obviously though that is the new kind of land battle that has developed in Ukraine. Drones can be made to attack individual soldiers easily. So some kind of proximity fuse, anti-drone exploding chaff like jet fighters might use need to be added to armored vehicle defenses against small air predators.

It is vexing that Europeans focus more on war and developing war tech than on environmental matters. It is difficult to invest in anti-global warming research if people are trying to kill you with drones I would think. Probably Russians have downgraded their anti-global warming research for anti-drone research. If Europeans spend 180 billion dollars on the war in Ukraine using seized Russian funds, instead of on anti-global warming tech- that is bad for everyone. Seriously though- look at the Ukraine land and cityscapes and say that it would be better to invest another quarter or half trillion dollars in blowing things up there instead of on atmospheric heating remediation.

The Unregenerate (a poem)

 

Spun a world’s fun
replete with charming quips
of hernia mesh knits
holding atmospheres intact
when planetary facts
indicate forward causality retrofit gas lines
embargoes of warmest springs
signs an atmosphere is thick
enough to greenhouse bounce photons
starting with nothing tricky
8 minutes distant to melt the arctic ice
bounce back to the ionosphere
and down to Earth thrice

No one knows on fatuous shows
the power of ostrich to deceive
even unregenerated, faithless strivers
to rebuild nuclear powered lives
a hundred billion humans grow while forests die
high albedo surfaces fade away
tech sprawling absorbent warmth unto AI
high temps arrive night and day

If the moon were made of green cheese
it would weigh 2.64554715 × 1019 short tons
even it could not compare
in odor to global heating denial ones
trusting skynet to keep the sky cool
and the machine to filter the air through
politician's profit
media spinning the world on a precise middle finger

God may watch over all
of the stage with players strutting about
to find everyone else’s doings
inevitably worth a shout
and in the beginning
of an impossible void
an electro-magnetic like field
sourced light without anyone annoyed
its power inflated faster-than light
yet for a fraction of eternity
nothing was in sight

Teleology is just the power to draw
all those fields quarks forward toward it
every particle way directed toward thine
field strongest for cosmic expansion/attraction.
viewed from cities with plastic bags overhead
warming the Earth until all the dead are dead.


-an explanation of the poem above-  It is perhaps, circumstantial ontology. A philosophical paradigm of the circumstance of being. I was influenced by reading James Lovelock's book 'The Final Warning'. The discoverer of the ozone hole, Lovelock and Margulis coined the Gaia hypothesis. Lovelock said, about ten or twenty years ago that humanity would last only 200 years before the world becomes uninhabitable with global heating- hence my reference to ostriches. The commitment to take upon itself the Herculean task of  correcting the approaching environmental disaster created by 8 billion people is something humanity hasn't been able to face up to, and is absent. Regeneration is a Christian term about salvation and spiritual renewal from the condition of being spiritually dead. Humanity needs a political regeneration too in order to survive if Lovelock is right.
