You know an online debate has turned to shit when it degenerates into a bunch of parsing quotes.

This is why debating you is an exercise in futility....because your reading comprehension is for shit. I specifically qualified that you made no mention of the "97%". In fact, you used the term "ALL"...which I displayed when I quoted your post. :roll: "ALL" what? Which...

So...no substantiation, eh. I couldn't recall who mentioned it first, so I went back and looked. While the specific % wasn't mentioned, it was Prawn who made the first claim... But I do thank you Intrinsic for clearing up what the number actually refers to...I learned something. However, it would s...

I'm sorry. It's very Australia-centric. But I thought you might at least have a chuckle about the fish.

I'm not making that claim...I am pointing to the fact that scientists do not see a CO2 problem with the bacteria. So, I guess we should ask Prawn to substantiate his claim... "...the anaerobic bacteria that break algae down when they die, releasing huge amounts of CO2 into the water." &qu...

But here is an instance where scientists are using a bacteria you claim causes massive CO2 release. And it's not a small scale plan...they are saying it will REVOLUTIONIZE how the WORLD treats it's waste water. So, who's wrong?...you, or those scientists? Now I'm not making a judgement as to the an...

>>>so what makes you think that small scale use of the bacteria won't make it into the big picture? Arn’t we talking about bacteria that are already abundant and thrive in nature..? Yes, we are. Which is why I still don't know what the fuck Bob is trying to prove - or "disprove" as he cla...

Pointing out that the smart science guys are developing use of the bacteria supports that they are not concerned with CO2 production from it's use....otherwise these 97% would never even consider such a practice, would they??? Mate, we're talking small-scale use of anaerobic bacteria to treat waste...

Counter to your CO2 argument... That's what I'm trying to figure out. How is this counter to my CO2 argument? It actually reinforces my argument. You are proving my point. Which is why I asked what point you were trying to make - because it's not counter to mine. Are you saying the algae are going ...

That's nice to know, but I'm still not sure what point it is you're trying to make. Perhaps you can spell it out for me.

Probably in your drinking water. If not now, then soon enough. They already do it in other parts of the world. They do sterilise it first.

What a lot of people forget is, yes, the earth's climate has changed throughout its history. However, human beings have only evolved very recently in the grand scheme of things, and under very specific climatic conditions. We are one of the few species that has been able to adapt to almost every cor...

That's fine for treating water, because you're not trying to keep fish alive in it. Fish kills often occur when dissolved oxygen concentrations drop to lethal levels during the decomposition of organic matter. When oxygen is depleted, anoxic & hypoxic conditions develop and anaerobic organisms t...

Click on the cartoon. Then click on the box top right that says "Expand to actual size"

The water temperature dictates how much co2 the oceans can absorb, okay? They have warm periods and cool periods. El Nino and La Nina, Capiche? Hey Dick, I'm confused. :confused: Are El Nino and La Nina real, or are they also part of your conspiracy theory? If the sky is blue - and El Nino and El N...
