Get educated my friend, Its a natural cycle, like a sine wave, we are approaching the 'top of the curve' so to speak, it will go way down in a few centuries, just like the 'little ice age' between 1460 and 1550 that was sub zero fora long time, its all the western Government's propaganda about Global Warming to get us 'controlled.

Not to mention the sun plays more of a role than us humans. Some do like to believe they do somehow :dunce:

The power grid depends on some kind of load. if suddenly no load was presented to the grid, would you have power when you flipped the lights back on?

Question...if the pumps and chillers run at 30% to 40% normally and maintain 76 to 77 degrees with 45-50 percent humidity, then we shut down for an hour and temps climb to 83-84 degrees and humidity runs up to 70-74 percent. Then we turn then back on and they have run for 30 minutes at 100% to get back to set point, did I really save any energy??? bongsmilie

Nope. Why would you think you would?

I knew 'dat.... just sampled the meds and was in a mood so had to post it... my bad for being a smart ass...... I am all for saving, but if one does not think things through and reacts just because, it usually ends poorly... I have had this discussion so many times regarding "saving" energy and the planet... So, OP and ALL, sorry for poking fun at the thread...

Yes it is between nova-scotia and new-brunswick . Its hard to put into words the ammout of water that ebbs and flows 4 times a day ... It is quite a site to witness the change
It's the world's biggest tides in the Bay of Fundy, not the roughest seas. The North Sea is a lot rougher, nevermind the North Atlantic herself!

If, on the other hand, your chillers run 40% of the time while providing cooling 100% of the time, are you saving energy vs an AC that has to run all the time?

I'd have to say YES.

Al Gore made billions of dollars by telling everyone we'd be living in water world by now...
Sure did. A little too much too early. Thing is....humans forget shit quick....and with climate change...its effects will be noticed slowly....way past immediate finger pointing. Planet earth cannot keep pace with attention span.
