Our grid today compared to the 1800!

Hey folks!! I wanted to bring up a topic wondering what your opinion is on such!!

During the Carrington events here on earth. The telegraph machines and cables where exposed raw conducting materials!

For example the older electrical systems called knob and tube wiring! Would actually expose the conducting materials to open air. Meaning if there was a energy vibrational surge to such an extent, the outer fields would come in direct contact with each other as the energy expanded surrounding the conducting materials. 

Once these energies collide we get sparks!!

In our modern era, we insulated jackets around all conducting materials transporting electricity! 

Hypothesizing that the insulated jackets require around all materials transporting electrical energy would be sufficient to suppress the sparks that were recorded from the Carrington event!  Although in our electrical panels we have circuit breakers where exposed conducting materials are located in a open un insulated fashion! 

The danger comes from those connecting sources like outlet plugs and panels! 

If those connections sources were completely separated and fully insulated prevent an excess of energy expanding outside the insulated jacket. We shouldn't have the same concerns of immediate global fires! With smoke so thick choking out this world and creating a new ice age??

I wanted to share this with the community hopefully a solution can be found! Helping  Protect the advancement of civilization!

Cheers!

The most important piece of technology we could preserve for rebuilding society after a Carrington event, or any apocalyptic event is solar panel tech. If society was bleached, killed, or annihilated from some cosmic or local catastrophe we couldn't be able to return to this point again. This is due to the use of fossil fuels, and there is very little left compared to when we started blooming into industry. We can't redo our journey without another energy source, and solar is probably the only source with enough capacity for a large population. 

 

A new ice age is not likely anymore. This is because the jet streams are bringing warm air to the artic regions, which prevents the deep freezing of ice and continued cooling. Regardless of how insulated we are, there is energy produced from our chemical release of fossil fuels and human activity. We are the heating force. 

 

The feedback loops, also called "Climate Sensitivity" in IPCC models only account for a 4.1c global mean temperate change. However, local areas like the artic can warm much more, as much as 4x the global mean temperature. So local feedback loops and issues might/will make heating worse.

 

Anyways, just sharing doom back at ya :) Welcome to the forum.

I think it was good weed, but I'm not an expert,.. 

wrt: Smoke billowing out and choking the world and starting the next ice age...

Min,

He is referring to what has been called Nuclear Winter.  The idea is that all those bombs going off will thrust billions of tons of earth up into the stratosphere. Then, it spreads out, encircling the globe and blocking a portion of the sunlight from reaching the troposphere (or the ground).  As a result, temperatures drop.  It would take years for the air to clear again. In the meantime, it would be one long winter.

This type of event has happened many times, but it's because of volcanic eruptions. In 1899, Krakatoa blew up (erupted). Krakatoa was a mountain growing out of the ocean. After the eruption, it was all underwater.  A significant part of that mountain got blown into the stratosphere where it spread out and covered the globe. Global temps dropped several degrees for about 3 years or so.  Smoke from fires caused by electrical damage from a Carrington Event is not likely to have a significant effect on global temperatures, IMO.  There have been other eruptions in the past that were more significant and caused greater cooling.  If one of those events were to block the sun long enough, when the sky cleared, the ground is all covered in snow, greatly increasing the albedo (reflectivity) of the ground and the earth as a whole. So, when the air clears, it's cold, snow everywhere and you find yourself in an ice age!
