What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

(OP)
I'm starting my own environmental firm, Nature's Ally I would like some ideas from you the engineers in the work force what would you do to help stop Global warming, honestly? What type of inventions, or type of contributing factors could give this planet to also better our lives.

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

First, I'd make sure that Global Warming even exists.

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

LOL, JAE, you beat me to it!!

Surely the temperature is not absolutely constant over time, regardless of what humans do.  By definition, then, there will be intervals during which it'll naturally go up (or else decrease forever.).  How do we know we're not in one of those?

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

I'd maximize my energy efficiency by posting in the most logical forum... perhaps "Civil/Environmental Engineering Other Topics"

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

We're on a roll.

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

Wow,

And people questioned this post

thread731-194341: Arrogant Engineers

None the less I nearly responded similarly, that's why I just put the links!

KENAT, probably the least qualified checker you'll ever meet...

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

Of course global warming exists!!! The UK government now has it as the favourite topic, and christ i'm sick of the "carbon footprint" slogo. And if you want to do any research now, just make sure you have some sort of "environmental" aspect in it and the money will come rollin in.
Of course it exists, the government just wouldnt get anything wrong deliberatley..............

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

Drill deep shafts in the ground, install piping, build big heat exchangers above ground.  During winter time, use cold winter air to chill all the rock, then use the cold rock for AC next summer.  Have another "Hot Field" a mile or so over to do the reverse winter heating.

RE: What would it take if you wanted to design a material that was flexi,

Reading this thread, it's pretty easy to guess that it started on a Friday........
