Brummer,
Sadly, the internet has given rise to the tip of the tail wagging the dog. All kinds of stupid crap is published and posted on the internet, and it is swallowed by gullible people like Eric. None of what he posts adds anything of value to this thread.

There's a logic problem there. You can't assume the only affects on climate are GHG's.

I guess that you do not understand the underlying physics like he does.

Doesn't he know that?

He does, very very well I might add.

Ivanpah solar plant catches itself on fire.

$1.6 billion in govt guaranteed loans. Produces very very expensive power. Burns birds in mid air. Blinds pilots.

On the bright side, Ivanpah has yet to set an airplane afire. But if misaligned mirrors can set itself afire, if it sets birds in flight afire, it's a matter of time unless all aircraft recognize a big no fly zone.
