(#4) Global Warming. This is a major problem but not as pressing as the
above 3. And its solution is much easier than the above 3. It can be
solved in a matter of one year time. Whereas the above 3 have no
assured solution. Many people have spoken of this problem and Al Gore
probably the most eloquent. And it is a shame that Al Gore was not
elected in 2000 instead of the anti-science current occupant of the
White House.

Solution: the solution is quite simple and easy. We already have the
solution going on now. In the form of volcanic action in year 2006. We
are experiencing a very cool summer compared to last year due to the
ash and reflectants in the atmosphere. Cars and engines also emit ash
and soot and dirt into the air that reflects sunlight and creates
Global Cooling. So I propose to inject Aluminum Sequin into the Upper
Atmosphere via the routes of high altitude commercial aircraft and of
the Space Shuttle and Space Station. In one year time, we can inject
enough Aluminum Sequin as to make Global Warming into Global Cooling.
Problem: the only real problem I can see in this is the affect on green
plants. We already notice that plants in Europe and USA receive 10%
less sunlight due to the dirt and soot and ash in the air. But this
problem is connected to human overpopulation and we must strike a
balance. This planet can only accomodate a certain given human
population so that we can still have large animals, can still have a
decent living standard for everyone and can have a "decent world
climate". If human population is too large, then it affects what the
overall climate of Earth can be and it cannot be good.

So all the problems mentioned are related, some more than others. But
they must be tackled in some order of priority.

The summer of 1992 was the coolest I have experienced. Maybe it was
different in the southern hemisphere.

How will the summer of 2004 shape up? Given the current National
Weather Service forecast for the next week and assuming the rest of the
month is normal, 2004 would barely finish in the top 20 coldest summers
for the Twin Cities. 1992 and 1993 both would beat 2004 for coolness.
In fact 1992 has the #2 spot for all time coolest summers in the Twin
Cities and 1993 is in 17th place.

It is estimated that the volume of ash of Mt. Pinatuba in the
Philippines of volcanic eruption in June of 1991 is about 30 cubic
kilometers.

How many airplane flights during a year worldwide? What is the cargo
capacity for Aluminum Sequin per plane? Can the world's airplanes cargo
haul 30 cubic kilometers per year.

What is the amount of superior reflectivity of Aluminum Sequin rather
than ash and dust? So that we need not put 30 cubic kilometers but
perhaps only 1 cubic kilometer.

FLASH!! This is a silly idea based on the incorrect notion that it was
the ash and dust that cooled the Earth after Pinatubo. The ash and dust
rains out rather rapidly, within a few weeks and is a local problem.
No, fool, it was the sulfate aerosol lofted into the Stratosphere.

Your ideal to use relatively large "sequins" introduced into the
atmosphere would also be a short term solution, as they would rapidly
fall out of the sky. Placing them in LEO using the Shuttle (which will
be decomissioned around 2010) wouldn't do much either, as they would
fall out of orbit due to atmospheric drag, again a temporary solution.

Do try to learn some science, won't you? Please? Please?

Let's see, summer is about 6 days old. Yeah, your prediction is probably

Record heat in WA and OR. Record heat and drought in GA. Your predictions
are as good as Bush's about Iraq.

Seems that would be a good thing. One would not want the stuff up there
forever anyway. If you had to remove it, you would have a bigger problem.
Just asking about the concept, not the mechanics.

Yes that is a good thing and it focuses my attention that the material
placed in high altitude by airplanes should not be Aluminum Sequin but
merely PAPER Sequin since it will not stay up there for long.

But since airplanes are up there continuously a biodegradable material
is wanted since it will be there only for a short period of time.

Ironic, that it is carbon that is causing Global Warming and it will be
CARBON in the form of lightweight paper that will solve global warming.

We can use the more reflective and longer lasting Aluminum Sequin for
the space orbit around Earth released from the Space Station.

James, I was looking for information as to the numbers of airplane
flights per day. I was wondering if the volume of airplanes per day
exceeded the 30 cubic kilometers? And better yet the cargo capacity of
airplanes whether it exceeds 30 cubic kilometers per day? If so, then
just a mere day or two time will cool Earth for the entire week and
should be able to knock out any potential Hurricane if we chose to do
so. In other words, we could have killed Hurrican Katrina last year in
its tracks.

So what is the best reflective paperlike material and what shape?

How much daily airplane cargo capacity that can release the Sequin into
its highest apogee of flight?

We should not waste any time but do this as fast as possible. Because
if we can make the planet cool this summer and to knock-out any
possible Hurricanes, we should do so.

P.S. I am confident that the cargo capacity of airplanes in their
apogee of flight, could singularly solve Global Warming. In fact we
can start the program tomorrow by having one of those huge
transatlantic jets dump paper sequin in their apogee and monitor the
results.

I think Mother Nature already has put in a candidate for this. In the
form of plant seeds spread by the wind. Something like a cottonweed
seed mass or something like dandelion seed masses. Lightweight and
white and reflective. Perhaps cotton fibers.

Anyway, I leave it to material scientists to figure out the optimum.

So far my prediction of a cool summer based on the fact of so many
volcanic eruptions this year especially in Indonesia is coming true.

Even though, we should emit into airflight apogee, as fast as possible
cargo hauled Paper Sequin and monitor how good of a Earth Air
Conditioner we have just created.

Because if a killer Hurricane begins to form this summer, we should be
able to destroy the Hurricane itself by placing Paper Sequin overhead
of its track.

Far far too overoptimistic on my part. Vortex motion is extremely
difficult to stop once set in motion.

Question: how much power do hurricanes lose during the middle of the
night? And do hurricanes change course more often during the cooler
nighttime?

Odd question: has anyone observed a hurricane behaviour whilst
simultaneously an eclipse of the Sun occurred?

Question: what happens when a hurricane meets a cold-front, and does it
change course drastically?

Perhaps the best that Sequin can do for hurricanes is alter their
course. For instance, before Katrina slammed into land near New
Orleans, if the New Orleans sky had been Paper Sequined, Katrina may
have felt that as a cold spot and shifted direction bypassing the city.

Another possibility is that if we can detect a premature or unborn
Hurricane before vortex motion, perhaps we can destroy all of these so
that no hurricane can form.

Yes, let's just ignore the important role hurricanes
play in the General Circulation of the Earth and in
sustaining ocean currents eyeroll

You could argue that tornadoes play some tiny minor important role in
distributing something. The majority role of both hurricanes and
tornadoes is destruction as to the excess of energy that the
environment finds itself.

Life adapts and life does not need hurricanes or tornadoes.
So if we have the chance to eliminate them, we should grab the
opportunity to eliminate.

Funny how we can more easily eliminate hurricanes than we can tornadoes
which are less energy. We can do this because it seems as though the
birth of hurricanes all follow a patterned order of originating in
Africa. Somewhere they start vortex motion. So if we can destroy
pre-hurricanes before they start vortex motion, then we would solve a
major destructive force.

If the birth site of all hurricanes is some narrow band Latitude
between Africa and North America then by orbiting Paper and Aluminium
Sequin to make that latitude ocean water so very much cooler, then we
have cut off the birthing of hurricanes.
