Climate Change and Green-Energy 'Data' UpDate

The Climate is Changing – The Climate has always been Changing

NATURAL Temperature & Climate Variations – The Only Kind so Far

Today’s cold Weather Isn’t climate change --- it’s just Winter again!

Winter: It's What Happens When Warm Moist Caribbean Air Meets Cold Arctic Air!

12-9-2017: Northeast braces for heavy snowfall

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/12/09/northeast-braces-for-heavy-snowfall.html

“Winter Storm Benji was moving up the East Coast, with heavy snow predicted for a 2,000-mile stretch from the Deep South to New England. Some spots could see as much as 10 to 15 inches of snow, forecasters said.

Winter weather warnings were issued Friday for parts of Massachusetts and Northern Virginia, with travel expected to be hazardous in the Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., metro areas.

The South saw unprecedented levels of snowfall from Texas to North Carolina -- resulting in power outages, frozen roadways and numerous auto accidents. Many areas closed schools during the week.”

Perhaps this Winter storm is Mother Nature’s reaction to Obama’s pathetic visit to the Paris AGW-Alarmists meeting this week where his friends and green-mentors were sadly disappointed by his inability to hand them a $3-Billion dollar US taxpayer check (for whatever?).

Many of those friends are like watermelons:

Green on the outside but pink on the inside.

Dominion's Bath County Pumped Storage Station and Proposal For Another In Coal-Country

http://www.roanoke.com/news/politics/general_assembly/a-glance-at-dominion-s-bath-county-pumped-storage-station/article_286d6ca3-4cb9-5935-bb21-8923c83f5e8d.html

“The Bath County Pumped Storage Station, near the West Virginia line, is the most powerful pumped storage station in the world with the ability to hold approximately 20 billion gallons of water and push 7.4 billion gallons of water to create energy.

Pumped storage facilities (like Smith Mountain Lake SML) have two separate reservoirs. During peak electricity times, the water flows from the top reservoir to the bottom powering turbines and creating electricity along the way.”

These peak-power storage “water-batteries” were designed to provide reliability during short-term high-demand and they will prove invaluable for the intermittent supplies from solar panels and wind turbines.

As fossil fuel electrical supplies are reduced and intermittent solar and wind become a significant part of our electricity supply there is a requirement for massive pump-back hydro systems that can quickly react to changing supply-demands. A Hydro opportunity exists at the New River Gap. One can only imagine the green-aschauda this project will elicit – the real cost to make intermittent ‘green-power’ reliable.

Kennedys, Kochs help kill planned wind farm off Cape Cod

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/12/04/kennedys-kochs-help-kill-planned-wind-farm-off-cape-cod.html

“A plan to build scores of offshore, electricity-generating windmills within eyesight of the Kennedy compound and numerous other tony properties in one of America’s wealthiest, and most scenic areas, is officially dead in the water.

The Cape Wind project, which envisioned 130 turbines to be built off the Massachusetts coast, would have been the first U.S. offshore wind farm.”

In a similar vain, Va. D-Gov McAuliffe hasn’t gotten a single wind-turbine spinning here in the Old Dominion despite all his wind.

“End-of-summer Arctic sea ice extent is eighth lowest on record”

https://phys.org/news/2017-09-end-of-summer-arctic-sea-ice-extent.html

Why is the Arctic sea-ice 8th lowest on (satellite) record when supposedly we have the highest level of CO2 in earth’s history?

Satellites have recorded sea ice cover since 1978 (mere 39-years of earth’s history).

Who has the ‘real history’ of ice, temperature and CO2 for ‘earth’s history’? Who indeed? Thermometers were Not developed until 1895!

In any event did not John Kerry tell us the Arctic would be ice-free by 2013!

Icebreaker Plows Through The Arctic -- Déjà vu

http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2017/08/icebreaker-plows-through-arctic.html

In 1919 Amundsen sailed Maud through the Arctic from Oslo to Nome before there was any significant CO2 increases or turbine powered double-steel hulls.
