Solar Energy Summary

It might be an idea to summarise the *Solar Energy category in Pharoz and put some of these posts into the Becrux (Mimosa) blog with links to the relevant Pharoz posts.The basic categories would be something like: Energy efficiency at a network level Storage of electrical energy Transport of electrical energy Fixing electrical energy Transverse horizontal wind turbines Transition from coal power to renewables (system wide) Carbon dioxide – Removal, transformation and disposal of CO2 Applying usable kinetic energy to spacecraft through remote lasers There is a separate post for each of the broad categories above with links to the relevant Pharoz posts.

With the help of a polished mirror

The authoritarian actions that result from being caught in the word are attempts to banish that word that is used as a label, but any person is so much more that just one word. The word remains, nearly immortal, but the person labelled with the word is discriminated against, and sometimes this actually can turn the projected word into a self-fulfilling prophesy.

Existential crisis or a new vision

This overreach of anti-terror measures, especially in Australia, has transformed a real but moderate physical threat of terrorism, into a real but moderate physical threat of terrorism as well as an existential threat to our Western freedoms, and other radical transformations in society.

Even Downer’s assessment of a US military Major’s report, that all contracts in the food-for-oil program contained kickbacks, could be discounted because of that person’s relatively low rank – regardless of the information or facts – shows how this attitude pervades the Howard Government.

In the twentieth century, when the people controlling a state decided to change this principle so that the state favoured one section of the community over another section, the state tended to turn nasty and brutish.

The Australian: How the West was one [August 06, 2005]

The ‘rule of law’ is about ensuring that everyone who is subject to the power of a state is treated in accordance with human rights – the separation between ‘legal’ and ‘illegal’ should not affect the quality of the due processes under the law of a state that that person is subjected to. Howard carries on as if he thinks that the rule of law means that Howard makes laws and the state must enforce them, and that’s about the extent of it.

Prime Minister’s PRESS CONFERENCE PARLIAMENT HOUSE, CANBERRA – 05 August 2005

When the issue of Pauline Hanson publicly airing racist comments was put to Howard early in his prime-ministership, he decide to remain silent on the issue and state that Hanson’s expression of her views was a matter of free speech – and even claimed that the situation showed a retreat of political correct language.

Earth needs a climate of change – Opinion – smh.com.au

Earth needs a climate of change – Opinion – smh.com.au: “Our evermore sophisticated technologies often bring surprises, which are sure to leave those holding entrenched ideological positions way behind in the debate about our future. BUT, my experience with the environmental movement is that some of those people also have firmly entrenched ideological positions – and some of those ideologies seem to be little more than a hotch potch of ill-placed prosthetic memes – that are also inherently authoritarian.

Politics and religion

There is a difference between having a political order where people are free to choose and adopt their own beliefs and values, and a political order that sanctions some beliefs and values, and tries to impose those beliefs and values on the rest of the community.

Cool, but the cost is through the roof – National – smh.com.au

Cool, but the cost is through the roof – National – smh.com.au: “But in Australia, individual users bear most of the cost of going solar, despite the wider benefit of reduced carbon emissions.” Yes, renewables are expensive now, but if there was a serious market for them, and government policy to promote them, then the costs will come down.

Left and Right: Centre and just-out-there

While most people have firm views about both Left and Right, and readily slot people into these categories, this spectrum is also sometimes seen to be a little too blunt to describe people’s approaches to politics.
