CONVENIENT MYTHS
the green revolution —
perceptions, politics, and facts

book cover

by Klaus L.E. Kaiser, is the first clearly written, comprehensive book looking at the green desires and expectations and juxtaposing these with the physical and chemical facts and realities.

CONVENIENT MYTHS explains in common terms why many of these green ideas will remain myths and dreams. The laws of nature cannot be broken. No matter how much we may desire the opposite.

NASA's new Artemis-1 Moon rocket is certainly impressive but it's just thought of as a stepping stone to a futuristic landing of astronauts (again) on the Moon and, in the more distant future, on Planet Mars.

Dear Minister Tassi, Thank you for your calendar with "Canadian Wildlife" photos.
Already, the picture on the front cover, two "Whitetail deer", is a sub-species that's only found in the southern U.S. states -- and NOT in Canada...
What a sad example of ministerial responsibility and leadership.

Dear Minister Elliott,
Many of Ontario’s citizens are increasingly anxious about the — apparently never-ending restrictions — of their former activities and undertakings to earn a living. No doubt, you are aware of such strains on our lives — all due to the government’s COVID-19 (plus “variants’) restrictions.

Helium — from Abundance to Scarcity

Helium is not something that can be easily "mined", even as a byproduct of other mining operations (like for iron, copper, and other metals and Earth's resource kinds of deposits). In fact, it's mostly a "byproduct" of natural gas that requires special processing technology and energy-consuming conditions.

Spelunking
Well, the term “spelunking” may not be quite right here, so let me correct it to “surviving.” Presumably you know already about the great drive to have mankind settle on planet Mars. (Supposedly, as some folks claim, planet Earth will become inhabitable, sometime, in the very distant future, like many thousands or even millions of years from now).

Canada geese & goslings
In recent decades Canada geese have even become some sort of nuisance. Between a high fertility rate, few natural predators, and lots of city folks feeding them in winter, many decided to forgo the long-distance migrations to warmer climes when winter approached. That also removed the need to travel north again in spring, giving the local population a head-start on multiplying and expanding their range.

COVID restrictions are rapidly falling by the way-side, except for, can you imagine, the operations of STRIP-JOINTS.
I know it's hard to believe-but true nonetheless.
Many folks have been waiting patiently, 15 months or so for such novel freedoms. You can soon get a (legal) haircut (by appointment only), or get your toe nails clipped before they approach some new Guinness Book-of-Records size-all welcome manifestations of "post-pandemic" normalcy of life.

Rt. Hon. J. Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada
Undisputed Scientific Facts:
• Without that CO2 in the atmosphere, all life on Earth would cease to exist!
• Without that CO2 in the atmosphere, no oxygen would be produced; CO2 is/has been the sole source of molecular oxygen (that we breathe in with each breath)!
• Without the steady supply of CO2 from the thousands of active volcanoes and fumaroles, life on Earth would have already come to a standstill.
• Without that CO2 in the atmosphere, oceans and (most) fresh waters would become “acidified.”
• Without the use of carbon-type resources (like coal, oil, and natural gas), the world cannot continue.
• Without continued reliance on carbon-energy, much of Canada’s population would simply freeze to death in the next few winters.
