Author: Rich AlbertsonThis discussion of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics (2nd Law), is connected to climate change in a backhanded sort of way. The premise is: If you elect to conform how you do things to comply with this part of the 2nd Law, something we do not do now, it transforms your relationship with nature from hostile to cooperative.In Factoid #12, the 2nd Law's rule that heat goes to cold, was discussed. The 2nd Law has several components....more
Author: Rich AlbertsonThe Second Law of Thermodynamics ( 2nd Law) is the oldest, unrefuted natural law on the books. You'll be surprised at how much it explains. While the name makes it sound complicated, we're only interested in a small portion of what the entire law covers. Fortunately, it's the easy part. One caveat of the 2nd Law is that “all of the forces of nature move in a single direction – from the complex to the simple.” As...more

Author: Rich AlbertsonWe may need two fixes. One for the short term, an indispensable step, and the other for the long term, also indispensable but it might not look like it to many of us. First, the short term fix because, if we don't fix this part of climate change there's good reason to doubt we will be here long enough to need the long term fix. The extra CO2 we have sent up into the atmosphere will not be going elsewhere for thousands of years. That means the CO2 we have added to the atmosphere will stay right where it is, continuing to reflect heat back toward the planet, thereby insuring the already established trend of increasing heat will continue its growth, melting the glaciers and polar caps and causing all of the various aspects of weather to become increasingly extreme. In short, earth's environment approaches outright hostility to human life. Since there is no natural mechanism in nature that could move the extra CO2 from the atmosphere to somewhere else, at least before it gets too hot for us to live here, we will need to do this work ourselves. There are technologists already at work developing devices called “scrubbers” which can remove CO2 from the...more
