jakee 1,596 #52 January 3, 2012 QuoteUm...no. QuoteThe number stems from a 2009 online survey of 10,257 earth scientists, conducted by two researchers at the University of Illinois. The survey results must have deeply disappointed the researchers – in the end, they chose to highlight the views of a subgroup of just 77 scientists, 75 of whom thought humans contributed to climate change. The ratio 75/77 produces the 97% figure that pundits now tout. No? How do you feel your article supports that conclusion?Do you want to have an ideagasm?

billvon 3,120 #53 January 4, 2012 >This "filter out the CO2" has me intrigued. Just how would we do that? By either preprocessing the fuel to remove the carbon, or processing the resulting flue gases. Preprocessing involves creating "syngas" from coal then shifting it to H2 and CO2. The H2 is burned and the CO2 is stored as a gas or a liquid in underground or undersea reservoirs. Old oil fields are a good place to store these gases. Processing the flue gases removes the CO2 and allows it to be injected in those same reservoirs. Per current estimates we have about 500 years worth of places to store CO2 from our current emissions.
