Pipeline of death posed to kill us all
This utter nonsense about the carbon dioxide (CO2) levels contributing to climate change must end now. We are headed down a one-way street of destruction and nobody seems to be standing up to say, “Carbon Dioxide is an essential element of life.” A longtime friend of mine just called me to tell me how difficult it has become to access CO2. Yes, he buys CO2 that, not long ago, was 17 cents per lb and now is 70 cents per lb. He is concerned enough about access that he is putting his own CO2 capture facilities in place. Folks, CO2 is primarily plant food but there are at least 12 other products that CO2 is a major component in. In short, if the global plan to bury 3 trillion tons of CO2 takes place, then life stops, period.
Time magazine on Feb 22, 2023 had an article about the last chance the corn industry has to survive. It is entitled: An Effort to Make the American Corn Industry Climate-Friendly Has Turned Into a Political Melee in the Midwest
Honestly this article is not even readable if you understand the smallest bit of science. What I don’t understand is how farmers, farm groups and many others are falling prey to this bovine fecal matter, simply for a payment. Back in the day, we had a name for someone willing to take payment for services they knew were ultimately a sin. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that it is called the oldest profession in the world.
Here is the hidden truth: CORN is the answer. The United States corn crop, during the growing season, provides 4 times more photosynthesis than the entire Amazon Rainforest. Corn fields generate starch that is turned into fuel; ethanol that fuels our nation domestically. The by-product of that is fed to livestock as an excellent protein source that contributes greatly to a healthy life cycle. And guess what? I have just learned even more good news.
I recently started looking into the tire industry. Did you know that, initially, tires were made only from a natural product collected from trees? A product with a sap-like substance was retrieved from the trees and, through a complex chemical process, rubber was made. Soon the demand for tires outpaced the capacity of the trees so synthetic rubber was made from oil. It is widely reported that one car tire requires 5 gallons of oil to make and another 2 gallons of oil for the manufacturing process. A semi-truck tire requires 22 gallons of oil plus the manufacturing process. So you can see how the transportation industry has long been very dependent on oil.
I just discovered that corn cobs, combined with methane and CO2, can actually be used to create tires. In 2017, University of Minnesota Associate Professor Paul Dauenhauer and his team set out to use starches derived from sources like corn, as well as grass and trees, because they are almost identical to the size of the isoprene molecule found in tires.
The research clearly indicates that corn fodder or soy oil can be blended with methane and CO2 to create a tire without using petroleum products. Let me just say this again: the answer to planet health is not to demonize corn and soybeans and bury the essential elements of life called methane and carbon dioxide, but rather to capture them and use them to improve human lives.
It sure seems that all this science about the essential aspects of CO2 is being hidden from the public and it’s a little fishy. It turns out that aquaculture also relies on CO2 because fish food can be enhanced by the addition of CO2. Fish food providers have estimated that four million tons of CO2 a year, the amount a large cement plant produces, could be used to produce 2 million tons of protein meal that, when fed to fish, expands human availability of protein.
Folks, God didn’t put these elements in the atmosphere because they were dangerous. He knew what he is doing and now we are listening to a bunch of devil worshippers tell us we need to bury CO2 a mile deep in the earth. I guess it really does make sense; the devil is trying to get access to another one of earth’s golden gems.
Hey Trent, Very well written article. Easy to read and lots of points made. One minor correction: CO2 is not plant food. It is what plants breathe. Vegetation breathes in CO2 and exhales O2. That's probly why the fishfood (probly algae) thrive w/ CO2. More access to breathable matter. Also that's good for us, since then the algae make O2.
Thank you for all you do.
