Mfer do you think burnt coal or a coal powerplant can be recycled?

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

Coal is made of carbon which is 6 proton, 6 neutrons, 6 elections. They are literally spreading hell mass that to no surprise is heating the world to be like hell. We need more trees to cast carbon back to the earth! We need to use the power from the pure light given to us by our God. Praise the Sun!

The sad thing is that arguments like this are actually more likely to get through to these people than actual, logical and/or scientific arguments.

This is the kind rhetoric I'm considering for my future political career. F@#ing sad it's come to this. Same energy as when I tell wife beaters "they are keying their own car". I don't feel women are objects but for the kind of men that do, I think it reaches them.

I always think the same when people say that wind turbines need maintenance and sometimes break down. Cool, a coal powerplant you only have to build and feed with coal forever.

Or "yeah but we're burning fuel to make energy" without understanding that a large powerplant burning fuel at 60% efficiency (or whatever percent) is better than 1000 small ones (cars) at the same efficiency

Internal combustion cars are about half as efficient as big fossil fuel powerplants. The big ones waste a third of the energy as low grade heat; cars waste two thirds of the energy as low grade heat
