The blood bath has begun, are we too late to save humanity?. Farzana PriorЧитать онлайн книгу.
a number of hydroelectric power stations. Bioenergy is created when garbage is burned to create heat, which creates steam to turn the power-generating turbines. Over fifty percent of Sweden’s trash is disposed of in this way. A further forty nine percent of trash is recycled, and only one percent of trash lands up in landfills.
While burning trash does release carbon dioxide into the air, it releases half of the carbon dioxide that burning coal releases. And burning coal doesn’t have the benefit of disposing of trash.
The United Kingdom is well placed to make use of wind power generation. In February 2020, the UK has generated approximately eight thousand megawatts in offshore wind capacity and in 2025 expects to add an additional ten thousand megawatts via the construction of more wind farms.
Uruguay has invested heavily in both wind and solar energy, without using subsidies or increasing costs to the consumer. Through sheer political will, this country put regulations into place that made use of private-public partnerships to drive energy production from renewable energy and, within ten years, now have ninety five percent of their energy being produced from renewable energy sources. The other five percent comes from hydropower which depends on seasonal rains. Thermal power is used only for peak demands and is fired by oil and gas, which is still more efficient than coal.
Politicians, act now: stop burning coal for energy and start burning trash. Burning trash has many benefits and few drawbacks. The most significant drawback is the production of ash as a by-product, most of which can be recycled for use in road construction. Any toxic fly ash can be deposited into landfills designed to handle such materials. Air emissions from trash power plants, can be cleaned through filtration and scrubbing mechanisms.
Politicians, act now: make use of wind and solar renewable energy sources. Don’t convince yourself that renewable energy is too expensive. Burning coal is no longer an option because humanity and the oceans are literally being cooked and poisoned to death from carbon dioxide.
Politicians, act now: we don’t have space for landfills. We need them for farming, for housing eight billion people, and for growing new forests. Forests will absorb carbon dioxide and will make humanity resilient to droughts, floods and hurricanes.
Politicians, act now: enforce mandatory vaccinations. Vaccinations will make humanity resilient to diseases, and preventing diseases is far cheaper than treating them.
Politicians, act now: discourage war and conflict in your country. Provide for the people by encouraging ethical businesses to take hold, build forests, introduce renewable energy sources, build renewable housing, build infrastructure and incentivise farmers to farm food for the nation.
Politicians, your purpose is to act with courage and ethics as you make planetary changes to your country’s infrastructure. You know that renewable energy is untapped in your country, but you fear protests from coal mine workers, for example. Proceed with courage, ethics, and transparency!
