Is global warming real ?

last years snow run off (global warming or normal cycle)
Global warming seems to be on everybody’s mind. Every time I turn on the news there is a story about it, or something related to it. We are constantly told that sea levels are rising and that the ice caps are melting. That we need to stop polluting, reduce the CO2 levels in the atmosphere and somehow restore the ozone.
But what bugs me most is that no one is asking the right questions and no one is paying attention to what is going on around them. When I ask an environmentalist these questions, they become abusive,  threatening, or just don’t want to talk to me. I talk to other people, and they try to tell me there is no global warming and it’s just something made up.
            So here are a list of questions that nobody seems to have an answer for, but if any of you out there do have an answer, please feel free to comment.



  • ·         If CO2 causes global warming and trees soak up CO2, why isn’t anyone saying we should plant more trees to stop global warming?
  • ·         If the ice caps are melting on earth because of global warming and the ice caps on Mars are melting who’s causing global warming on Mars?
  • ·         Where is it written that God said he set the thermostat at the perfect temperature and it will never change?
  • ·         They say that global warming will cause all the low-lying cities to flood.  If that is the case why hasn’t the country Holland (which is below sea level) already flooded long ago?
  • ·         If you fill a glass full of ice and then add water, when the ice melts shouldn’t it cause the water overflow the glass?
  • ·         When you fill a glass with water and continue to fill the glass it will overflow, but when you add water to a spinning ball in space(such as Earth), where does the water gravitate to? Shouldn’t the centrifugal force of the ball force the water to accumulate around the equator? And if you add a large body of water to the equator of the earth what does that do to the rotation of the earth?
  • ·         Why do environmental scientists constantly tell us that the oceans will overflow like a bowl of water when the earth is shaped like a sphere?
  • ·         If CO2 is actually the problem? Wouldn’t it make sense to eliminate those things that are actually producing the CO2 and increase the number of things that consume and eliminate CO2 such as plants?
  • ·         If you can genetically design a plant to produce more of something, why can’t you design a plant or tree that consumes large quantities of CO2?
  • ·         CFCs are supposed to be responsible for the hole in the ozone, but there has been a ban on CFCs for many years. Shouldn’t that have had some effect over the years on the whole in the ozone and why is nobody talking about CFCs anymore if it is still a problem?
  •     If global warming is going to cause an ice age and the earth has gone through many ice ages, who caused all the other ice ages and who or what was polluting the earth back then?

There are a lot more questions I could ask, but my biggest question is why are you not asking more questions or did you forget all the basic science you learned in school?

Tesla’s Roadster Launched Into Space

Heavy metal Corvette or Tesla roadster, which is more cool? 



    Heavy Metal the movie is about to become very popular after the recent successful launch of the falcon heavy rocket with a Tesla Roadster as a payload. The Tesla roadster in the top image almost does not look real. The bottom image is a Corvette in the animated movie Heavy Metal, which is an all time favorite of mine. I could not help but notice that both spacesuits look very similar, is this by accident ?    The Tesla roadster is on its way to Mars and will be in an elliptical orbit around the Sun and Mars for the next billion years, or so they hope. What a way to ensure immortality.     Alien races coming up on this will most undoubtedly be totally confused. Will they think we are just stupid or just trying to get rid of all the junk here on earth? Just in case it is found by aliens, a disc storing science fiction author Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy is also in the car. Not sure how that will explain the car, but you do have to admit that it is cool. Also on board is a small Hot Wheels replica glued to the dashboard. The question I have here is how much Mattel stock I should buy. At the very least I will be buying a Tesla roadster Hot Wheels replica car in the near future.      The real question that people should be asking is why all the negativity in the news media? Elon Musk has definitely upset the apple cart with the good old boys who build rockets for NASA, even the space shuttle was overpriced and over budget. It should also be noted that Elon Musk's rockets are under budget because his rockets are fixed contract with no over budget allowed. President Trump should also take note as he is always going on about overpriced aircraft, over budget contracts and over paid contractors, but why is the President all of a sudden silent? Why is the government and the national news media bad mouthing everything Elon does?


The question for today is;
Why are taxpayers still paying for overpriced, overpaid and over budget contractors that deliver inferior products?

Why are we not using fixed contracts on all government contracts and making companies compete in an open market?
