The Global plan

[SparkySy]

Ah but he will only be making electric if he lives by a waterfall or has dug a huge hole to put his troupe in!
Don't get me wrong here, the companies that are set to make billions from selling us (insert as appropriate)
Gas
Oil
Electricity
Have all suppressed ideas down the line that would make those billions less, history shows us this. And this also goes for the shareholders and investors in these companies, who are our politicians and upper class citizens and would loose out financially!

But you can't get owt for nowt! Even the troupe needs investment and why would you use something like that when better more efficient technology exists? Yes back when the idea was being used in mining it was probably the best thing around! Now I understand it's more of a tourist attraction!
For a home project if I had my own waterfall I would love to have a tinker at making one!
Mainly so I could prove what I already strongly suspect. That there is good reason why there are not millions of them out there already!

The input to this ancient machine is called “ a trompe” and its purpose is simply that – to introduce air to fast flowing water .
Because this information is suppressed it has been altered or removed from censorship tube and so I respectfully invite you to down load this original lecture given by Bill Mollison

The information has not been suppressed, the lecture is freely available on youtube. Since your last posting about the trompe some months ago I looked into it and discovered that this useful old tech is being used right now in a few places around the world to oxidise polluted water; from the mining industry's especially. I do suppose the Trompe's compressed air could somehow be used to generate hydrogen >>>> and so on.

Anyone here in Glasgow wanna spill the beans about this to Greta; Im sure it would get her into a state of climactic bliss ?

But it suits this sort of person's agenda to claim things that aren't true. Seen it many times before. They also have a tendency to repeat things ad infinitum rather than answer specific questions.

Just to keep in the spirit of things with all the COP 26 and all that here is Bill whatisname and his amazing "Trompe" lecture !

You sound like one of those 'freeloaders on the land'.

The problem is the salient points you make are drowned out by the total hoop you also come out with.

Sprinkle in a bit of 'you're all ignoramuses who don't know and aren't as aware as me and my kind' and it's no wonder nobody listens to you.

I bet you think the earth is flat.

I'm in Glasgow, but I haven't met Greta yet...so have no beans to spill, sorry.
I can say that the number of whatsapp images of Greta are huge, but while sometimes amusing, are not helpful, but that's what we do, isn't it? We make fun of a serious situation, for a laugh.
TBF, Sir David Attenborough's speech was well conceived and well received, but IMHO he is a legend...and it seems that view is held across the globe.
It IS possible to reduce our carbon footprint, and I have been moderately successful in my domestic setup, but we ALL need to do it, every contribution however small is just that-a contribution. Make it if you can, please.

man's contribuition to global warming is a drop in the ocean. 1 volcano erupting causes more damage than the las 100 years of man's technological contributions. and that's before we get to cows farting methane.

About the same as a multi billionaire, Captain Kirk and a space rocket, then?

You guys keep encouraging this tripe By responding.

Ooh! I just responded.

Is that a paradox or not?
