  • Middlebury College gets nearly all of its power from our Biomass plant, which heats woodchips to create energy. As a result we are on pace to become carbon neutral in 2016.



    Sounds like the destruction of the forest.

    "Since 2009, the biomass system has reduced the College’s carbon emissions by nearly 40 percent and the use of #6 fuel oil by one-half, or about a million gallons per year. On average, over the past four years, this has saved the College well over $1 million in fuel costs. Some 20,000 tons of woodchips, harvested within 75 miles of campus, are used annually in lieu of that oil. According to the latest Forest Inventory Analysis by the U.S. Forest Service, that amount represents less than 1 percent of the area’s net forest growth (growth minus removals/harvest).

    If only everybody used wood chips for fuel. The world would be a much better place.

    Where did I say anything about science? Looks like you lied

    I like to say that burning wood on a global scale will reduce carbon.

    It's an example of an ambitious attempt at sustainable energy working.

    You might want to stop before you embarrass yourself further.

    The stats ARE the science.

    It's fucking data.

    Christ!

    Sample size is data too you fucking moron

    I hear they're burning your parents money too. Global scale moron, no one cares that your college burns wood for power

    Climate oscillations last for millions if not billions of years.

    The Holocene period we are in now has been relatively consistent for a long time (roughly 11,000 years)

    The temperature increases coincide with increased fossil fuel emissions from mankind in the past 30-50 years.

    Here's a picture of the process that is making it happen.

    Always happy to inform.

    Sure it is. You're doing a great job. Maybe your professor will let you blow him

    Cool picture bro. You still lied about what I said. Liberals lie, its who they are

    All those damn liberal elite professors are ruining America!

    It's a funny sentiment that's expressed by many on the right.

    My conservative cousin said he didn't want to go to an ivy league law school because they cater to the liberal elite.

    It was the gist of your post, thinking I'm a product of whatever my professors tell me.

    Don't take it so personally.

    Maybe, "maybe", I was bit harsh on you. But you still think the sample size is some kind of significant obstacle even though scientists have been able to put it into context of the greater period.

    All the studies on the actual physical process of global warming are consistent with the climate data. The stats don't lie.
