In 2011, studies conducted in Sri Lanka by Professor Kapila Seneviratne
of the University
of Kelaniyashowed that traditionally made virgin coconut oils that use
heat in the process, even high
levels of heat such as boiling the coconut milk to completely separate the oil (a method we do not use), not only does not harm the oil, but
actually promotes the antioxidants to become dispersed in the oil:
It was also a good way to control the amount
of heat in a recipe, as you can add a little at a time,
actually drop by drop, until the desired
heat level is reached.
Do not ask how I know this.Since the
heat level of a pepper is tied to the amount
of capsaicin it contains, it's
actually possible to quantify how hot a pepper
actually is.
However, research has shown that virgin coconut oils processed with some
heat actually have higher
levels of antioxidants, unlike the refining process
of virgin olive oils.
Besides the horrible
heat level, the taste is
actually absolutely fantastic if you love the taste
of the Naga Morich, 7 pot and other super hot varieties.
Another interesting thing I learned is that a lot
of food that I have thought
of as high in starchy calories
actually may help control your sugar
levels if its not
heated.
For soybeans, the researchers found that 46 percent
of damage was
actually caused by increased ozone
levels — and not by increased
heat, as had been previously thought.
So virgin coconut oils produced by wet - milling and being marketed as «no
heat» or «raw» or «cold - pressed» are
actually virgin coconut oils with lower
levels of antioxidants, according to this body
of research.
However, they separated the oil from the water via centrifuge, with no
heat, and numerous studies show that if
heat is used in the process
of extracting virgin coconut oil, antioxidant
levels are
actually higher.
There could be some weak, shallow overturning due to horizontal differential
heating (cooling
of sinking air would have to occur via downward diffusion
of heat), but to a first approximation, the tropopause
level may
actually rest near or at the surface.

Actually, one might be able to come up with all sorts
of unlikely, mysterious scenarios that account for the current
level of warming (including a
heat gun weilded by invisible Martians, CIA / UN / Mossad experiments...) if the temperature were the only data set that had to be explained.
«From a temperature comfort point
of view, we're really happy, but we're more interested in whether the
heat recovery ventilation units
actually provide the
level of fresh air comfort, and whether people notice the difference.»
Actually Fielding's use
of that graph is quite informative
of how denialist arguments are framed — the selected bit
of a selected graph (and don't mention the fastest warming region on the planet being left out
of that data set), or the complete passing over
of short term variability vs longer term trends, or the other measures and indicators
of climate change from ocean
heat content and sea
levels to changes in ice sheets and minimum sea ice
levels, or the passing over
of issues like lag time between emissions and effects on temperatures... etc..
The main problem with the whole proposition
of a «raised ERL» mechanism
of surface warming is that no planet holding an atmosphere
actually emits its
heat to space from some particular
level or some specified temperature surface.
8 months
of the year, the slowly decreasing Arctic sea ice
actually allows more
heat to be lost from the Arctic ocean that it gains from the very low sunlight
levels that are present due to increased evaporation, convection, conduction and radiation losses.
