The evidence you have for this is non-existent, save for some obscure, unproveable theory no one particularly credible believes.
You want to actually try and debate me, with your loony tunes paulbot ad hominem comments? You can try, but you will fail every step of the way. The data I posted on oil consumption is
from the IEA. So stick that in your unproveable conspiracy theory crack pipe and smoke it. This is real data about the real economy. Oil is in everything. It
is the economy.
I hate to break it to you, but it's a simple mathematical certainty that people consume less energy if they use products that consume less energy.
No its not. Again read William Stanley Jevons work, and the work of hundreds of others who thought the same way until they actually studied the facts.
For example, my personal total electrical consumption has gone down since I replaced my desktop with a tablet and my laptop with a phone. I'm not going to consume any additional energy because the Jevons Paradox says I will.
Complete bunkem, complete bull. You WILL consume more energy because if you save $50 a year on energy you are just going to turn around and spend that money on something else. An external battery for your iphone for example. And guess what... it takes energy to make that item. Like I said 5 times already this is well documented with 150 years of research to back it up.. You are just making yourself look like a total fool spewing all this crap about loonies and paulbots and conspiracy theories when you are in fact completely wrong and completely missing the entire dynamic of energy consumption in a real economy.
I can tell you arent even considering the resources it takes to make an iphone or a tablet. The thousands of btus of heat and the thousands of joules required to manufacture each and every component that goes into one of those devices. If you actually think that building all those manufacturing facilities, and fueling them, and hiring all that labor (chinese labor I might add) is somehow more efficient than using a 5 year old notebook that pulls 30 watts from the wall, then you are even more uninformed that I thought. But feel free to throw out all these fancy terms like "loon" at me, because I've done the math. I bet I've done more math on this subject than you have in your entire life, and I know that the actual efficiency gains are microsopic, if there are any at all. It isnt a matter of saying "
oh gee my notebook pulls an average of 35 watts and my ipad only uses 5 so I am saving 30 watts". This
real world you love to blather about doesnt work that way. It actually costs energy to manufacture stuff. In most cases, it is only
after the new product is obsolete that its energy savings make up for the energy cost of the capital. And by then you've already dumped it for the next latest thing and so the cycle of inefficiency grows rather than shrinks. That is why I say that believe it or not, that 5 year old notebook is about the overall most efficient thing you can be using if you actually were concerned about energy efficiency.
I didn't make any mess, loony toons.
Impregnating women and being in a relationship (more the latter than the former) tends to soften and offset the crazy (unless you're marrying like kind). That's what happens when you immerse yourself in the real world.
lol, you conspiracy theory Paulbots truly are funny.
Just more pathetic, baseless, groundless absurd nonsense that could have been written by a 12 year old.
