Why do you assume that if some over-regulating federal agency wasn't arround that a more responsive and effiecent state agency wouldn't have filled the void? Even now California has much stricker enviromental regs that the Fed have.
Oh come on, there are more than enough elderly barely squeaking by in a new catagory known as energy poor, to make it obvious that any increase in energy costs is going to kill people, your sounding like the Marie Antoinette misquote "Let them eat cake".
that '25 times as powerful as CO2' statistic is its equivalent over a 100-year period. even though methane may not last long before being oxidized into CO2, during that period it has a much greater forcing.
trust me here, methane aint nothin to fuck with. tightening up leaks is inarguably a good thing.
OH BS;
Methane degrades into CO2, in fact, so in simulations I did (Archer and Buffett, 2005) the radiative forcing from the elevated methane concentration throughout a long release was about matched by the radiative forcing from the extra CO2 accumulating in the atmosphere from the methane as a carbon source.... Conclusion It’s the CO2, friend.Much ado about methane
If the warmistas at realclimate say it ain't the methane, it ain't the methane! Everybody is just freaking becuase there has been no statisically significant lower troposheric warming for over 18 years and OCO is showing that the significant sources of Atmospheric CO2 isn't the evil(tm) westerners but the Chinese, the rain forrests and geological sources.
To be fair, when the Bible speaks of Mary and Joseph as being betrothed, at the time it meant they were married (Erusin), but not yet cohabiting (Nissuin).
a betrothed couple is regarded as husband and wife. Similarly, the union can only be ended by the same divorce process as for married couples. However, betrothal does not oblige the couple to behave towards each other in the manner that a married couple is required to, nor does it permit[16] the couple to have a sexual relationship with each other.

The practice of arranged/forced marriage or betrothal of pre-pubescent girls is still wide spread in Islamic Countries.
Depends on the law, in the US most laws have a line something like "It is illegal for anyone the the United States, the District of Columbia, It's Territories and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico to..." and some have "It is illegal for anyone to". Murder, Rape and Piracy on the High Seas are example of the second.
I would love to see the Mounties come into the US on the down-low and rendition Michael Geist, we'd has fresh source of Dudley Do-Right jokes for years.
Most Canadians live within 50 miles of the US border, so they all pretty much now there's nothing a US company or Government can do to them unless they actually come into the US, and most that have US bank accounts don't have that much in them for the courts to sieze. I doubt Geist is getting anything but laughed at.
I was burned badly enough to be peeled like a bananna at a regional burn center, so I've had as much morphine as you can get without getting into respiratory depression; and it still hurt like hell.
I always wondered why under Shiria, when a woman was raped, she'd be beheaded for adultry, yet the man who raped her was unpunished; you'd think if a thief would have his hand amputated, a rapist would be castrated and penis amputated for stealing her virginity!
In the United States, M203 grenade launcher attachments fitted with the standard rifled 40mm barrel are classified as "Destructive Devices" under the National Firearms Act part 26 U.S.C. 5845, 27 CFR 479.11,[27] because they are a "non-sporting" firearm with a bore greater than one-half inch in diameter. M203 grenade launcher
I was wrong, because the barrel is rifled, it breach loads and uses smokeless powder and if memory serves me correctly the M79 barrel is rifled as well.
Note that it requires a special FFL to own a grenade launcher,...
I'm not so sure about that, most grenade launchers are fairly short, the M79 has a 14 inch barrel, the M203 so the restriction is more likely,
Under the National Firearms Act (NFA), it is illegal for a private citizen to possess a sawed-off modern smokeless powder shotgun (a shotgun with a barrel length shorter than 18 inches (46 cm) or an overall length shorter than 26 inches (66 cm)) (under U.S.C. Title II), without a tax-paid registration from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, requiring a background check and either a $200 or $5 tax for every transfer, depending upon the specific manufacturing circumstances of the particular sawed-off modern shotgun being transferred. Sawed-off shotgun
that they are sawed-off shotguns, rather than because they are grenade launchers, the issue of the grenades are a separate issue, non-explosive projectiles should be ok. If the grenade launcher were long enough it would be considered a 1 1/4 guage shotgun.
Of course IANAL so consult a trusted advisor for anything other than hypothetical banter.
It's because there is an obsession with actually killing the executed, as opposed to letting them die. Opiates are actually quite pleasant, you just get this warm fuzzy feeling and every once in a while you think "Oh yeah I have to breath"; with a little more, you just forget to breath for longer periods until you don't breath at all. Of course using opiates is too passive of a way of executing people, not enough execution in the execution.
Jihadists can say what they want, but they can't advocate killing artists with Kalashnikovs.
Yes but groups like the various Jihadists groups, the the New Black Panther Party and the KKK all have ways of advocating killing of people they hate without actually advocating the killing of people they hate.
The thing is it revolves around climate sensitivity, that how many degrees the Earth will warm for each doubleing of CO2,
The climate sensitivity specifically due to CO2 is often expressed as the temperature change in C associated with a doubling of the concentration of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere. Climate sensitivity
for the climate to warm 2K, we'd have to be at almost 800ppm CO2.
As opposed to the people changing the climate now with no code of ethics?
I'm not sure that "code of ethics" means the same thing to them as it does us.

69% of Americans agree that "there is solid evidence that the earth is warming," and 65% of Americans class climate change as a "very serious" or "serious" problem.
"serious" is a higher quantitative degree than “somewhat serious”, in fact the same article also says
Separately, a Pew Research survey of 39 nations conducted between March and May found that 40% of Americans say climate change as a major threat to the U.S., compared to a median of 54% in the global survey.
Gallop asked what Americans worried about, in regards to climate change, 24% responded a "great deal", 25% responded a "Fair Amount" and 51% responded "a little/Not at all".
It took reading all of the articles, but finally it became clear they were talking about a facility of unknown size located under a perimeter of 75 acres of land rather than a facility of 75 acres under the ground.
There are only so many ways to write music that sounds good to the ear, the copywrite period is at least 95 years, so the likely hood that any popular song written does not contain segments of songs previously copywritted is pretty slim. An example, buried deep in In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, written by Dickey Betts is a guitar riff, among many, that is the entire refrain for Beyoncé's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)". I'm not saying that the writers of "Single Ladies" copied on purpose, or even know that what they wrote had been to a degree written before, but all you is enough to convince a Judge or Jury. Sony music has a very big catalog and the resorces to buy any music they might find useful.
It would mean learning to manage the world as a forest. We can probably do that. Yeah, I think we could figure that out. Maybe.
In the United States, which contains 8 percent of the world's forests, there are more trees than there were 100 years ago. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), "Forest growth nationally has exceeded harvest since the 1940s. By 1997, forest growth exceeded harvest by 42 percent and the volume of forest growth was 380 percent greater than it had been in 1920." The greatest gains have been seen on the East Coast (with average volumes of wood per acre almost doubling since the '50s) which was the area most heavily logged by European settlers beginning in the 1600s, soon after their arrival. More trees than there were 100 years ago? It's true!
Depends on the time frame, at equilibrium, which likely takes decades to centuries, I suspect any where from 0 - 5% of the tree carbon remains sequestered. In an equatorial forest the equilibrium might be achieved in less than a whole decade, at the Arctic tree line it's likely centuries. Elemental carbon isn't bio-degradeable, so biochar sequesters the carbon until it is burnt in a fire; so once it below about 10 cm of dirt, I suspect it's forever. I'm looking into building a charcoal kiln to make char for our vegetable garden.
First of all the World's equator is primarily ocean, so trees don't work well there; even where there is land on the equator, the land is notoriously infertile. Equatorial land tends to have elevated rainfall and temperatures, this causes the micro-organisms in the soil to decompose organic matter at high rates, if you go to Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2, it's easy to see the the world's highest levels of atmospheric CO2 are located over the South American and African equatorial rainforests, even equatorial waters have high levels of CO2 over them. The Sahara is a desert mostly because it lies in the horse latitudes, pretty much everywhere on latitude 30N and 30S is desert.

Only in every exhale, feel free to stop emitting any time

He's talking about Temperature, and the article is talking about heat, that what's called a strawman arguement.
