John Kerry Links God With Hotcoldwetdry

August 12, 2013 – 2:52 pm

Maybe he should speak to his boss about reigning in the “carbon pollution” from sending his dog on a different plane

(CNS News) Reiterating a theme he presented two weeks ago at an Iftar dinner celebrating the end of Ramadan, Secretary of State John Kerry on Thursday described “global climate change” as “a challenge to our responsibilities as the guardians–safe guarders of God’s creation.”

Kerry was speaking at an event announcing the creation of the State Department’s Office of Faith-Based Community Initiatives.

“I’m convinced that all of you will agree,” said Kerry, “that one of the toughest challenges that we face in terms of global diplomacy and relationships around the world between peoples nowadays, from sectarian strife to the challenges of many intractable, frozen conflicts, to the challenges of simply understanding people–one people to another–or even monumental challenges like the sectarian strife that we see tearing countries and regions apart, as well as the enormous challenges of things like global climate change, which really is a challenge to our responsibilities as the guardians–safe guarders of God’s creation.”

Because the Middle East only turned into a desert when CO2 broke 350ppm. And there was no war, famine, mean people…it was a truly kumbaya world.

Interesting how he makes links between  “church and state” and climate change a-OK.

BTW, know what’s really sad? Kerry would still make a better president than Obama.

   Why is he speaking at a Ramadan festival?
   Has he spoken at a Jewish High Holy Days festival? At a Catholic Mass?

   Why is it that only Democrats are allowed to violate the rule about politicizing the pulpit?

   And also note, that it is the liberals who DEMAND that we separate Church from State, yet they constantly preach their politics from the pulpits. And now Kerry who is not a loyal Catholic, uses GOD to push a political malfeasance upon us. He uses GOD to push his own cult GAIA-worshipping religion.

   Heresy, blasphemy and hypocrisy. All rolled in to one political party.

   TOP NEWS STORY
   Climate Change Is Threatening the Power Grid
   Just days away from the 10-year anniversary of the worst power outage in U.S. history, the White House and the Energy Department released a report on Monday evaluating the resiliency of the nation’s electric grid and recommending steps to prevent future blackouts.

   Even Yahoo is carrying this story.

   Here is the interesting background you never see in the news (Smart Grid, EPA regs, Closure of a heck of a lot more plants than thought…)

   IMPLEMENTATION
   As Obama Promised: Energy Prices to Soon Skyrocket

   Obama’s war on coal hits your electric bill
   The market-clearing price for new 2015 capacity – almost all natural gas – was $136 per megawatt. That’s eight times higher than the price for 2012, which was just $16 per megawatt. In the mid-Atlantic area covering New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and DC the new price is $167 per megawatt. For the northern Ohio territory served by FirstEnergy, the price is a shocking $357 per megawatt…. These are not computer models or projections or estimates. These are the actual prices that electric distributors have agreed to pay for new capacity. The costs will be passed on to consumers at the retail level.

   So the cost of energy in the USA will sky rocket. In the UK ‘Fuel Poverty’ is killing 65 people per day in the winter. Article: Fuel poverty deaths three times higher than government estimates and science paper: Fuel poverty and human health A review of recent evidence

   The EPA and Department of Energy drastically underestimated the effects of the new EPA rulings. Many more plants are closing than anticipated. This means electricity prices will sky rocket and the electric grid could become unstable New Regulations to Take 34 GW of Electricity Generation Offline and the Plant Closing Announcements Keep Coming… According to EPA, …. these regulations will only shutter 9.5 GW of electricity generation capacity. OOPS, I guess the government miscalculated.

   So what about the “Green Energy companies funded with tax payer dollars that are supposed to replace these coal fired plants? They are going bankrupt at an alarming rate So far, [thats] 34 companies OOPS, I guess the government miscalculated.

   A power systems engineer commented on WUWT: http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/12/10/a-lol-press-release-on-renewable-energy-from-wishful-thinkers-at-the-university-of-delaware/#comment-1170521

   “Letting non-professionals get involved in the power grid is like giving the keys to the family car and a bottle of whiskey to a 14 year old boy and his pals. If the renewables were viable, we’d adopt them by the train-load and build them so fast your head would spin.”

   What the politicians neglect to say is their plan for making this work is to install Smart Meters, an attractive opportunity for Investors This theoretically allows residential electricity to be turned off so the system can be balanced as wind and solar power surges and declines. Of course with renewables bankrupting, smart meters not installed and coal plants closing at three time the rate expected, this put a real big kink in that plan. OOPS, I guess the government miscalculated AGAIN so we are looking at rolling blackouts. Heck they have already started.

   Energy InSight FAQs

   ….Rolling outages are systematic, temporary interruptions of electrical service.
   They are the last step in a progressive series of emergency procedures that ERCOT follows when it detects that there is a shortage of power generation within the Texas electric grid. ERCOT will direct electric transmission and distribution utilities, such as CenterPoint Energy, to begin controlled, rolling outages to bring the supply and demand for electricity back into balance.They generally last 15-45 minutes before being rotated to a different neighborhood to spread the effect of the outage among consumers, which would be the case whether outages are coordinated at the circuit level or individual meter level. Without this safety valve, power generating units could overload and begin shutting down and risk causing a domino effect of a statewide, lengthy outage. With smart meters, CenterPoint Energy is proposing to add a process prior to shutting down whole circuits to conduct a mass turn off of individual meters with 200 amps or less (i.e. residential and small commercial consumers) for 15 or 30 minutes, rotating consumers impacted during that outage as well as possible future outages.

   There are several benefits to consumers of this proposed process. By isolating non-critical service accounts (“critical” accounts include hospitals, police stations, water treatment facilities etc.) and spreading “load shed” to a wider distribution, critical accounts that happen to share the same circuit with non-critical accounts will be less affected in the event of an emergency. Curtailment of other important public safety devices and services such as traffic signals, police and fire stations, and water pumps and sewer lifts may also be avoided.

   As problems with an unstable grid due to Solar/wind becomes worst expect Smart Meters to become mandatory:

   Don’t want smart meter? Power shut off
   The rollout of smart electric meters across the country has run into a few snags: one woman doesn’t want one, and ended up in the dark as a result.

   You might not think that would be an issue. But it is, because Duke Energy is now beginning to disconnect any homeowner who refuses a new electric meter.

   Other electric companies are not pulling the plug…yet…..

   The Department of Energy Report 2009
   
   A smart grid is needed at the distribution level to manage voltage levels, reactive power, potential reverse power flows, and power conditioning, all critical to running grid-connected DG systems, particularly with high penetrations of solar and wind power and PHEVs…. Designing and retrofitting household appliances, such as washers, dryers, and water heaters with technology to communicate and respond to market signals and user preferences via home automation technology will be a significant challenge. Substantial investment will be required….

   These controls and tools could reduce the occurrence of outages and power disturbances attributed to grid overload. They could also reduce planned rolling brownouts and blackouts like those implemented during the energy crisis in California in 2000.

   However like all government projects run by bureaucRATS, they screwed up the planning and the timing big time and it is falling apart. So Obummer rolls out the propaganda right in the nick of time and points fingers at the 21 century boogyman CAGW.

   Unfortunately 50% of US voters have IQ’s under 100 and if Detroit is any example Forty-seven percent of adults are functionally illiterate. But they sure know how to vote when it comes to that welfare check (With the help of ‘Community Organizer’)…

   Just ask Detroit ‘Hows that Working for you?”
