At more than half orbital velocity, that seems a tad too fast. ;-)Jim Pettithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17633643623395168991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046701423623795423.post-18956617074770497822013-11-20T06:04:28.141-08:002013-11-20T06:04:28.141-08:00Considering the lag time evident in temperature ri...Considering the lag time evident in temperature rise worldwide visually depicted in latitude specific time line of surface temps from about 1900 pictured above, it seems to me that even if we had the best methane destroying machines howling full tilt and all people engaged in restoring Earth's open systems of Nature now together it still might not be successful at stopping the crash and loss of HZ coming.<br />Undoing high levels of greenhouse gasses and the pulse of temperature rise already expressing itself -that will take a bit of heart and luck and here's the kicker.

In the few spectrum locations available and specific to methane's properties of gas that don't happen to overlap CO2 or like water vapor or something. I'm near certain people being kept in the dark is part of US space technology program in a not too gentle or subtle way. Not least because of disclosure of secrets laws and the threat of defunding or blacklisting.Dale Lananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05409842680440987251noreply@blogger.com
