Extract materials that were not heat, dissipating energy of extraction. Convert part of them to heat by Refinement. React the materials then to provide the final heat which is converted usually by steam turbine into electricity.

Which part of that is not planetary heating?

Why do you think that heat has any different effect than the heat created in the refinement of oil?

Don't you think that too is applied to the thermal mass of the planet?

Its all destruction, increase of entropy.

And it was "needed", because investors need profit.

There has to be an input energy vs output energy calculation, to get the energy yielded in profit, given money is abstracted energy.

More energy travels by, and is stored by money than by any other means.

And all of it was energy extracted from the planet, pushing up temperature.

But look, the opposite happens when we take energy from the sun that would be heat, and convert it to things that are not heat. Creation of hydrogen by solar powered electrolysis removes 39kWhrs per kg hydrogen from being applied as heat energy to the planet, regardless of efficiency, and the product is capable of keeping all aerospace in the air, no shortages, no pollution, use of it reverses pollution, circulating both air and water, and it even converts to human consumable food.

Notice this is all straight truth that didn't even touch on the effects of CO2, which are highly arguable in an adiabatic atmosphere.

The longer you ignore this information Will, the more you show your real motivation is not to stop the system destroying the planet at all, its actually to perpetuate it.

Your actions are the opposite of your words.
