Chu: "There is no greenhouse effect"?: - Telegraph
Speaking at Cambridge University this week, Dr Chu suggested we paint the roofs and pavements of our towns and cities white, as it will help the planet reflect, rather than retain, heat from the sun. "You change the albedo of the Earth," he explained. "The sunlight comes down and it actually goes back up. There is no greenhouse effect."
Whitewash « the Air Vent
Of course the light goes back up, it’s even fair to say more light goes back up from a white roof than from a dark one. Consider what that means for CO2 in say THE NORTH. I rather like a black roof on my house. It saves energy. In Illinois, a large percentage of our electricity is good old fashion nuke power. Considering that means any AC I use (one month per year) is evil carbon free. Painting my home or office roof white would result in greater (natural gas) heating cost in the winter increasing CO2 and less of the already minimal cooling cost which is carbon free. Perhaps we should make our roof’s black — oh yeah WE ALREADY THOUGHT OF THAT!

Governments can’t do a damn thing right.
Orlando Sentinel - Reader poll: Who is more paranoid, global warming alarmists or NRA?
A. The world was a heck of a lot hotter long before we got here and started burning old dinosaurs. The global warming industrial complex feeds itself by selling paranoia.
