Is Global Warming Science Just A Fraud?

[Old Rocks]

No, global warming is not a fraud. It is a well established fact. And you, Andoranjim are a seriously ignorant individual concerning science. There is not a Scientific Society, not a single National Academy of Science, or a major University anywhere in the world that states that AGW is not real. In fact, virtually all of them have policy statements that say AGW is real, and a clear and present danger.

The Carbon Dioxide Greenhouse Effect

These data aren't Greenland, they're the planet Earth.

Whoa, looks great, TX!

Leaving out the 2100 numbers that haven't happened yet, what we're looking at there is complete for political purposes and this is where many in the movement have left it. The science side of it went quite a long ways since Marcott's 2013 paper and soon after he posted a revision at Response by Marcott <i>et al</i>. and further changes were included in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences www.pnas.org/content/111/34/E3501.full.pdf with this compilation--

--demoting the hockystick leap back down to the !/2 deg.rise the IPCC liked --much less than previous fluctuations. Going further back using more data from Yale at CO2 as a feedback and forcing in the climate system - Yale Climate Connections the half degree begins to look more like static--

--or just 'fuzz'. It gets really hard to see why we're looking at something we need to tax $trillions for.

Before we spend money we need a reason, and so far nobody's presented reproducible scientific data that:

1. there are hard numbers proving how much the the temp of the biosphere's gone up since say, 50 years ago,
2. it's the kind of rise has never happened before in recorded history w/o causing so much harm that we want to spend $trillions,
3. people did it.
4. we could possibly stop it by spending $trillions to stop it.

That's all been presented, many times over...

Where, on this thead?

...What percentage of the Earths atmosphere is CO2? 0.04% , that is 4 1/100 of 1 percent...

In other words, if all the atmosphere's molecules were laid out in a row from New York to L.A., the CO2 would even make it out of the NY airport. It's a trace compound and the vast bulk of the greenhouse effect is water vapor, but for some reason the left never wants to talk about it.

The left? How about we look at THE SCIENCE. The science talks about water vapor all the time. So, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Of course we already knew that when you assumed that because it required numbers higher than you can count to describe the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, it couldn't possibly have any effect. There are chemicals out there that will KILL you in concentrations a thousand times less. Why don't you go finish 7th grade physical science and get back to us.
