• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Maybe somebody should pass this info on to Doddering Joe before he does more damage to average consumers......
article said:
The rationale for this water heater rule, along with other appliance-efficiency regulations, is to reduce carbon emissions. The Energy Department claims that this rule will bring a 501 million metric ton reduction in supposedly “harmful” carbon dioxide emissions over the next three decades.

That sounds like a lot of carbon, but according to The Heritage Foundation’s chief statistician, Kevin Dayaratna, if the United States were to eliminate all its conventional fuel use, it would result in a mere two-tenths of 1% reduction in global temperature by the year 2100.

Hold that next to Communist China, which burned an estimated 4.6 billion tons of coal in 2021 alone, in its more than 1,100 coal-fired power plants. That compares to America’s 547 million tons (12% of China’s carbon dioxide emissions), so such a microscopic change becomes even more meaningless.
