    The Battle over Closed vs. Open Systems

    The world is now moving through an epoch-shifting transition, and a new system will be brought online as the $1.2 quadrillion derivatives time bomb that has cancerously taken over the western economy crashes. Now, this may not be a bad thing, as the system created over the dead bodies of JFK and his brother (which […]

  • Dutton’s Quixotic Proposal: Nuclear Lunacy Down Under

    Politics and facts are not necessarily good dinner companions.  Both often stray from the same table, taking up with other, more suitable company.  The Australian opposition leader, Peter Dutton, has never been discomforted by facts, preferring the chimera-like qualities demagoguery offers.  His vision for Australia is admirably simple and simplistic. In foreign policy, he supports […]

  • Last Rites for a Dying Civilization

    Last Rites for a Dying Civilization

    When the Black Death struck Europe in the Middle Ages, the fundamental values that held society together broke down. Husbands and wives abandoned each other and mothers abandoned their children. This void of ethics that overtook the population is described in Boccaccio’s The Decameron, considered a masterpiece of Italian prose and a documentary of life […]

  • Goodbye Oil and Gas: Hello Thermal Bricks

    The world of energy struggles with the nearly impossible task of getting off fossil fuels. This requires thinking outside of the box, something revolutionary bustling with energy that bails us out of sluggish fossil fuels that emit too much CO2 into the atmosphere and rapidly overheats the planet.

  • Nuclear Energy Everywhere Costs an Arm and a Leg

    It crackles like a Geiger counter in a uranium mine: in 2023, Emmanuel Macron announced plans for six additional EPR [European Pressurized Reactor] nuclear power plants. Hang on, no, perhaps fourteen in the long term. In reviving nuclear in the name of the struggle against global warming, the European Union has followed suit. Japan is […]

  • Carbon Capture, too Little too Late?

    Will carbon capture technology bail society out of the latest version of greenhouse gas emissions, CO2 suddenly doubling its rate of increase when compared to the past decade, in breathtaking fashion, thus overheating the ocean and the Arctic and Antarctica and hammering Greenland? The relationship between greenhouse gas emissions and carbon capture technology is best […]

  • COP28’s Unrealistic Tripling of Nuclear Power

    UN climate conferences since 1992 have failed to follow thru with results, as CO2 emissions continue higher and higher with every passing year. In fact, post climate conference impact of adopted proposals has become something 0f an inside joke. The most recent conference, COP28, embraced nuclear power as a godsend challenging climate change. “Triple Nuclear […]
