Great Barrier Reef Devastated by Bleaching
THE ABC has been panned by mining chiefs and Federal Environment Minister Greg Hunt for using a misleading photograph to highlight coverage of coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef.
The national broadcaster’s Triple J Hack website carried a report on damage to Queensland’s natural wonder on *Wednesday, but featured a dramatic composite image of dead coral that was taken at Flowerpot Rock in American Samoa.
It was the same picture that The Courier-Mail last weekend revealed environmental group Greenpeace had used in a tweet linking damage to the Great Barrier Reef with the coal industry.
Queensland Resources Council has made a formal complaint to the taxpayer-funded broadcaster over the latest instance.
“When The Courier-Mail revealed this Great Barrier Reef ruse last Saturday, Greenpeace themselves even admitted the photo in question was a fake,” QRC chief executive Michael Roche said.
“We would hope that this is just an ABC editorial faux pas and not a sign of their *willingness to deploy uncritical repetition of discredited propaganda.”
Mr Hunt said: “It’s disappointing to see that Triple J has also been tricked by Greenpeace’s deceptive campaign.”

Cheap Solar Energy: An Obama Fraud
by Jeff Dunetz | Nov 19, 2015 | Economy
Quote:
Solar energy is the latest example of every time the U.S. government picks winners and losers in the marketplace, the big loser is the American taxpayer.
By 2017 the federal crutch for the solar industry (tax credits) expires and according to many different sources the solar energy industry will collapse like a house of cards.
“Solar power’s value as a grid resource is limited because we simply can’t count on it to meet peak demand in the evenings,” Travis Fischer, economist at the Institute for Energy Research, told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “In fact, solar power could cause major problems if implemented on a wide scale due to its daytime-only production profile.”
The Solar power industry has shown strong growth since Obama became president but but because the solar panels and their installation is so expensive, that growth has been been heavily supported by taxpayer supported government incentives.
The 30 percent investment tax credit for solar power will expire at the end of 2016, threatening the long term future of the industry. The solar industry has been expanding in the U.S. with installations up 30 percent on the year, according to The Wall Street Journal. But critics warn that much of this success is due to government efforts to pick winners and losers in energy and cast solar power as an updated and modern technology.
But here’s the rub, solar energy is not that new and modern:
“Advocates like to leave the impression that solar power is an exciting, new technology with a limitless future. In reality, solar power is not new–photovoltaic solar panels date back to 1883,” said Fischer.
Experts warn that ending the subsidy will devastate solar power and could cost the industry thousands of jobs. Bloomberg estimates a two-thirds drop in solar instillations in 2017 if the credit expires, reports The Wall Street Journal. According to Energy Information Administration data, rooftop instillations could plummet 94 percent while utility scale projects could drop by 100 percent.
And while the progressives like Obama keep talking about the “rich” needing to do their fair share, because of the expense of setting up solar panels those solar energy tax credits are going to wealthier families with larger houses. Gee that’s not very liberal of them.
And as it represents such a tiny amount of U.S. electricity, (0.004 of the total output) there is doubt to whether it will ever be an important part of the future U.S. energy source.
“Despite being heavily subsidized by handouts like the investment tax credit, solar power still makes up only a small fraction of the electricity we need to keep the lights on,” said Fischer.

I take issue with two of your points:
1. The amount they get paid back from the utility causes a loss for the utility that can buy wholesale electricity much cheaper, but they are forced to buy it back from the consumer, hence creating a subsidy. However, it is a pretty good idea in general, much cheaper than forcing everyone to buy batteries from Tesla to store their own power. I agree with the law but object to it being characterized as something in favor of solar. It is a law needed to prop up solar.
2. People always ignore the maintenance cost and lifetime of solar equipment. Who pays, for instance, and what price do they pay, ten years from now when the inevitable hailstorm in Texas takes out the panels that might be near the end of their useful life anyway? These are legitimate costs that detract from the unsubsidized viability of solar.

Doesn't it bother you to post this bullshit? You claiming I'm a gasbag is a complement. You being a douche-bag is just a fact of life.

That's with no rebates.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average monthly electricity consumption for a residential utility customer is about 903 kWh per month. or 10836 per year
To figure out how many kilowatt-hours (kWh) your solar panel system puts out per year, you need to multiply the size of your system in kW DC times the .8 derate factor times the number of hours of sun. So if you have a 7.5 kW DC system working an average of 5 hours per day, 365 days a year, it’ll result in 10,950 kWh in a year
$200 x 12 =$2400 (200 per month for electric
5 x 2400 =12000 5 years saving
In this example, free electric after 5 years.
All these prices are easily found on line. You have 2 years to buy a system that will grandfather the rebates for a large savings above the numbers
I used.
Everyone knows the limitations of solar. The companies that make the equipment didn't wake up last week and realize this doesn't work at night. It was never intended to be sole supplier to a grid. Who didn't know that? The total amount of electricity provided by solar goes up every year with increasing annual %.
About 5 years to pay for a system that will give a person basically free electricity for 10 to 20 years.
http://understandsolar.com/calculati...anels-produce/
The solar companies are fine. They don't need the rebate now.
Simple easy numbers. I provided some prices.
Did you notice what they said about price? Other than not mentioning them?

Duh. Lots of extra capacity This isn't "instead of" It's in addition to. Go ahead and dump your solar stocks.

The utilities not making as much money is of no concern to me. The co-ops and LCRA have been raking in the cash as long as they've been here. You don't get money until you back your meter to a value less than a set point which might be monthly or quarterly etc, It doesn't prop up solar. Solar stands on it's own. If they removed buy backs you still get to zero your meter if you produce that much. If generating your own power isn't something in favor of solar then what is?
2. People always ignore the maintenance cost and lifetime of solar equipment. Who pays, for instance, and what price do they pay, ten years from now when the inevitable hailstorm in Texas takes out the panels that might be near the end of their useful life anyway? These are legitimate costs that detract from the unsubsidized viability of solar.

Home owner's insurance covers damage. Maintenance would be keeping the units clean. There are no moving parts. The inverter box may be sealed. Useful service life is between 10 and 20 years. I don't know what factors are determined to increase life, In Texas you recover your investment in @ 5 years

There was a $9252 rebate you didn't mention.
Note that all numbers discussed in this article are dependent on a boatload of different variables such as where in the country you live – they do however represent typical costs
Total Savings represent the sum of electricity savings for the next 25 years – typically how long a solar panel warranty lasts. The solar system will more than likely keep generating electricity after 25 years, which will result in more savings and a higher ROI in the years to come
Solar Panels
The solar panels themselves usually account for about 30% of total costs. Residential solar panels with a combined capacity of 3-8kW typically cost between $4,000-$16,000
I told you how I got $6000
Balance of system (BoS) refers to all components of a solar system except the solar panels themselves. This typically includes one or several inverters, mounts, wiring and other electrical components. Balance of system makes up for about 20% of total costs – homeowners should expect to pay somewhere between $3,000-$10,000 for these components.
$3000
Installation Costs
In this category we`ve included labor costs (15%), as well as permits and inspection fees (15%). The cost of both categories are highly dependent on what state you live in, but in most cases end up between $2,000-$5,000 per installation
Permits were $475 2 years ago in Austin. Standard install can be done in less than a day by 2 guys.
$2500
Operational Costs
Operational costs include monitoring, maintenance, repair, insurance and overhead costs – typically $4,000-$8,000 (20%).
This is a cost category where there is a lot of potential to cut costs. Not everyone will need monitoring and you can probably get away with little maintenance. You will hopefully never need any repairs
No monitoring, No paid maintenance. Added insurance @$380 a year. You don't pay for repairs now.
$380
Total $11880
Rebates $9252
End cost $2628
