🧵It's looking increasingly likely that one day, the US is going to wake up and find Taiwan on China's side of the ledger. From there, the entire First Island Chain would become increasingly untenable, and with it any hope that the US could prevent China, over time, from...

1/ There are no other constitutional rights in substance without freedom to transact

Being meaning to write this for 6 months, but the Canadian response to the trucker protests is illustrating this so vividly, that today is the day.

1/35 Why is 'Freedom to Transact' so vital? Why I am I committed to spread the msg via memes such as @punk6529's ? I spent two years of my life essentially stateless, stranded at sea, 18,000km from home, floating on 40ft of fiberglass; freedom to transact became life or death.

Some of the main takeaways from my writings:

1) climate change is real and not a hoax
2) the climate over the last 1M years is remarkably unstable with glacial and interglacial ossicliations due to minor orbital forcing and low CO2
3) there is no global temperature and CO2s role in regulating atmospheric temperature is significantly overstated
4) climate models are gross oversimplifications of the coupled, nonlinear chaotic climate system and do not capture the complexity of the system
5) catastrophic events have not trended up with the current 1.1C of warming and there is no indication that they will with the next 1C of warming.
6) a gradual replacing of fossil fuels is inevitable as they are finite and do cause combustion related pollutants to enter the atmosphere
7) solar and wind will never be able to provide reliable base load power without significant habitat and species loss due to the amount of land required
8) Catastrophizing of weather events is causing significant decline in mental health and driving anxiety in young people
9) Reducing access to fossil fuels for developing countries will keep large parts of the population in abject poverty for significantly longer than necessary

Let me know what you think and thank you for all the support I have received. #climate #energy

Hitachi: No problem, here's our Magic Wand. Anything else?

Hitachi: You're not gonna believe this

Keeping in tone with my Giza posts of today, some of the great work done for the book:
