You may have heard of people claiming you can run a car on ordinary water, or that if you arrange machine components in a certain way you can get infinite energy, or any number of other things. A lot of people fall for these things when they come around, because if they were true so many of life’s problems will disappear.
Physicists have a number of tools in their bag of tricks, but none so well-used and useful as the Second Law of Thermodynamics. It is simply this: There ain’t no such thing as a free lunch. If you want to take energy and do something useful with it, you are going to have to pay a dear price for that privilege, no matter how you transfer the energy from one place to another. Breaking even is out of the question. The only question is how much do you pay.
Global Warming, it turns out, has been based on the pseudo-scientific term called the “Greenhouse Effect”. This tricky term sounds scientific, since there are things called “effects” out there, and it seems like it has an easy, clear explanation. However, real physicists have done their homework and shown that no such effect exists, and can never exist. (link)
You see, the “Greenhouse Effect” relies on violating the Second Law of Thermodynamics. That, in and of itself, is enough to get yourself labeled a “crackpot” in the physics community. In fact, you almost have to produce theories that violate the Second Law of Thermodynamics to earn the title outright. If you understand and adhere to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, there’s hope that you’ll make a fine physicist one day. But if you violate it, you get classified as a “crackpot” and that’s that.
Folks, from here on out, anyone who considers Global Warming and the Greenhouse Effect with any more reverence than the theory of bug-eyed space aliens invading earth or machines that can power the world on a single teaspoon of ordinary tap water or people who claim to have mastered cold fusion. At least, in the case of the latter crackpots, they didn’t consume billions of dollars of public money on funding their “research” or nearly bankrupt the entire planet with their hare-brained ideas to drive humanity back to the stone-age.
If you can’t let go of the scam that you were entrenched in, I’d like you to consider one thing: If Global Warming violates the Second Law of Thermodynamics, how can they claim to be scientific at all?
