85. propaganda culture wars of oil and coal
"hat is the funniest thing I've ever heard. You're an "energy scientist" that rejects the industry trade association"

of oil and coal businessmen...


"as an entity fighting against their product"

against a competitor product

"and the DOE as "a batch of reports generated out of the Bush administration" and in their place you offer only a simpleminded blog post that you wrote."

its not simple minded, its quite nuanced, rather deep, and in any case, the information is factual to the question of what geothermal power can do for us now, not fabricated by industry involved in oil and coal to keep geothermal off the table.

You seem to find the whole idea of me knowing what i am talking about ludicrous. Its a lot more ludicrous to tell me that those are the energy gyys for their pwn product and yada when we all know full well that the real truth is they spend millions of dollars to lie to the public over climate change.

"Advanced" geothermal systems are geothermal lite systems designed to fail so that we can pretend we are working on the problem, about the same as building a one third scale wankl engine and saying that we tried rotary internal combustion engines and it didn't work. Well, it didn't work because they did it the most expensive and obtuse way they could and still make it look like they were trying.





"You are a sham and a charlatan. "

you are a fool and a troll.
