Reduced amount of windings.Is that you realizing you posted an article about a motor that still has copper windings?
But nope. Your post made no sense: specifically you said "You can still good about your blender."

... and the cost of the quality of life decreasing. Good project.
They didn't read the one I posted either, apparently.

Oh yes... that is the hidden gem of alternative energy. High costs. Many think that solar and wind power are free and should be cheaper. The sources are free (sunlight-wind) but to convert it to usable power... VERY EXPENSIVE. Expenses that will be passed down to consumers.
Do they have shares in a wind or solar manufacturer?I'm going to post this again since it appears the effect was lost and some people are suffering from amnesia..
Point missed on oilsands report, say researchers
Team calls for rapid transition to renewable energy
Two Canadian climate change scientists from the University of Victoria say the public reaction to their recently published commentary has missed their key message: that all forms of fossil fuels, including the oilsands and coal, must be regulated for the world to avoid dangerous global warming.
"Much of the way this has been reported is (through) a type of view that oilsands are good and coal is bad," said climate scientist Neil Swart, who co-wrote the study with fellow climatologist Andrew Weaver. "From my perspective, that was not the point. . . . The point here is, we need a rapid transition to renewable (energy), and avoid committing to long-term fossil fuel use if we are to get within the limits" of reducing global warming to less than 2 degrees Celsius.
The commentary, published in the British scientific journal Nature Climate Change, estimated the effect of consuming the fuel from oilsands deposits - without factoring in greenhouse gas emissions associated with extraction and production - would be far less harmful to the planet's atmosphere than consuming all of the world's coal resources.
"The conclusions of a credible climate scientist with access to good data are very different than some of the rhetoric we've heard from Hollywood celebrities of late," said Travis Davies, a spokesman from the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.
"However, it clearly doesn't absolve industry from what it needs to do: (To) continue to improve environmental performance broadly, and demonstrate that improvement to Canadians and our customers . . . in terms of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions, as well as water, land and tailings facilities."
Swart and Weaver also note that growth in oilsands and recent debates over a major pipeline expansion project in the United States represent a symptom of the planet's unhealthy dependence on fossil fuels. The commentary said policy-makers in North America and Europe must avoid major infrastructure of this nature since it is pushing the planet dangerously close to more than 2 C of average global temperatures above pre-industrial levels, which is considered to be a threshold of dramatic changes in global ecosystems.
Swart also said their estimates revealed that the relative impact of the oilsands on the climate, per unit of production, would push the average Canadian to 75 per cent of what would be considered their maximum allowable carbon dioxide footprint for an entire lifetime.
In other words, this would mean that after factoring in oilsands emissions, the average Canadian would not have much room left to consume fossil fuels for their other energy needs if he or she wanted to do their fair share of reductions when compared with citizens from other countries, Swart explained.
"If we go down this path, the amount of warming will be massive," Swart said.
Governments from around the world have agreed that scientific evidence shows that humans are causing global warming through land-use changes and the burning of fossil fuels, but that it is possible to avoid dangerous impacts of climate change by dramatically cutting levels of greenhouse gas emissions that are trapping heat in the atmosphere.

Work will set you free...
Or Rio Tinto. Only 800lbs of copper per wind turbine.Do they have shares in a wind or solar manufacturer?
Damn link did the same to me, too. So I just typed "Media coverage of oilsands prompts scientists' rebuke" into google search. It's the first entry.I am not a Climate Change denier. I do understand that Govts will not cause massive change that alters / lowers their citizens standard of living. Same with the BRIC's - They are the new economies that are growing fast. Along with that comes expectations when income increases. This along with the era of cheap food is over. As they have more disposable income, they alter thir eating habits. Hence a rise in prices - using food stuffs such as corn as Bio Fuels is idiotic.
I opened your link but could not find the article.
All of these are facts.
Do I like it, no, but it is the reality.
Shxt they are all fishing the oceans out and what have we seen over the past 30 years on cutbacks - sweet diddly is all we have seen
So? It's still a step in the right direction.Reduced is vague.

Anyway, it's a delicate balance between acting responsibly towards our world and not messing up economies while doing so.
So? It's still a step in the right direction.
Yup. It's already past the tipping point for many species.The oceans have absorbed so much GG that they are at a tipping for survival of a number of species. If we pass that tipping point the last time it occurred it took millions of years for the diversity to return.

I don't think that is what he was getting at. Do we continue down this path of materialist, capitalist insanity and trash the planet completely or do we branch off in a completely new direction? We have become separated from our connection to the source of our life, we are exploiting it and ourselves into oblivion in the vain attempt to fill the hole at the center of our being that this separation has created. We need a quantum paradigm shift and we need it now, not tomorrow.Eating shrooms ain't gonna help Cliffy.
Materialism is fine if the mater is in balance with the pater. The Earth is the mater so if you did dedicate yourself to the Earth you are being materialistic. When the world finds it's place between the mater and the pater all will be good but that's not going to happen until everyone accepts the pater.I don't think that is what he was getting at.
