The denier cult retards blindly and ignorantly deny the greenhouse effect even though it is well established scientific phenomenon completely accepted by the world scientific community for over a century. Typical of braindead reality deniers arguing their politics rather than the actually science..
Here's an article from a dozen years ago highlighting some of primary evidence that effectively proves the existence of the greenhouse effect.
UK scientists see greenhouse evidence
BBC News

By BBC News environment correspondent Alex Kirby
A team of UK-based scientists have published evidence which they say proves unequivocally that global warming is real. Comparing data obtained from two satellites which orbited the Earth 27 years apart, they found that significantly less radiation is now escaping into space than was previously the case. The team analysed data in the form of spectra of Earth's outgoing longwave radiation, which measures the escape of heat to space and bears the imprint of the gases believed to be causing global warming. They compared two sets of data. The more recent was collected over a nine-month period from October 1996 by the Interferometric Monitor of Greenhouse Gases instrument on the Japanese ADEOS satellite. The earlier data set were collected by Nasa's Infrared Interferometric Spectrometer on the Nimbus 4 spacecraft from April 1970 to January 1971.
The researchers say they found differences which showed a statistically significant increase in the characteristic spectral bands of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, ozone, and two chlorofluorocarbons, refrigerants blamed for ozone depletion. Their findings, reported in the journal Nature, show that less radiation was escaping from Earth to space in 1997 than in 1970. It means the gases are being kept in the atmosphere, and are trapping the Sun's heat. The team leader, Dr John Harries, said...he is in no doubt that global warming is real. He said: "The results presented here provide to our knowledge the first experimental observation of changes in the Earth's outgoing longwave radiation spectrum, and therefore the greenhouse effect. We're absolutely sure, there's no ambiguity. What we are seeing can only be due to the increase in the gases." Dr Harries was president of the UK's Royal Meteorological Society from 1996 to 1997, and is a former director of projects and technology at the British National Space Centre.
Your link is messed up again...
Yeah, when I use the forum auto-link feature, it inserts an extra "http//" in front of the actual web address that i'm copying into the little box, and that screws up the link. I sometimes forget to check that and correct it before I post. I used the 'edit' feature and corrected it here on this last post. If you have any trouble with any links in the future, look at the web address when you 'quote' it and see if there is an extra 'http//' there instead of spinning off on one of your wacko conspiracy theories. Just a little sanity suggestion there, slackjawed.
Did your job for you and googled the headline of your post.. Found this from 2001...
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.....you are such an insane little retard......OF COURSE it says 2001, you nitwit, it says that on the excerpt I quoted very plainly AND I said when I intro'd the article: "
Here's an article from a dozen years ago".
The article is reporting on established, peer-reviewed science and it still stands. Nothing has changed. Lot's of other satellite evidence confirms the fact that the Earth is still receiving slightly more energy from the sun than it is able to radiate away into space. Your nutjob cult of reality denial can produce no sound science that in any way refutes the evidence for the existence of the greenhouse effect or backradiation. All you retards have are your moronic myths, lame-ass pseudo-science, and crackpot conspiracy theories.

The Greenhouse Effect
The greenhouse effect is unquestionably real and helps to regulate the temperature of our planet. It is essential for life on Earth and is one of Earth's natural processes. It is the result of heat absorption by certain gases in the atmosphere (called greenhouse gases because they effectively 'trap' heat in the lower atmosphere) and re-radiation downward of some of that heat. Water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas, followed by carbon dioxide and other trace gases. Without a natural greenhouse effect, the temperature of the Earth would be about zero degrees F (-18°C) instead of its present 57°F (14°C). So, the concern is not with the fact that we have a greenhouse effect, but whether human activities are leading to an enhancement of the greenhouse effect by the emission of greenhouse gases through fossil fuel combustion and deforestation.
yes in 2001 they made that claims and since then? Well they disappeared and their paper went the way of the Dodo bird...
LOLOLOL....you're the "
dodo bird" here, slackjawed...."
they disappeared" did they....LOLOLOL...."
they" being the scientists who published that study, like this guy -
"The team leader, Dr John Harries, said...he is in no doubt that global warming is real.

LOLOLOL....you are such a lying little retarded bastard, slackjawed...."
disappeared" hah....
Imperial welcomes appointment of Professor John Harries to top science role for the Welsh Assembly Government
Imperial College - News Release
Date - 02 Feb 2010
(excerpts)
Professor John Harries' appointment to the post of Chief Scientific Adviser for Wales was warmly welcomed today by Imperial College London. The news makes Professor Harries the second current Chief Scientific Adviser at the College, joining Professor John Beddington who became adviser to the UK Government in October 2007. Professor Harries holds the Chair in Earth Observation in the College's Department of Physics and will continue to focus around 20% of his time on his academic role at Imperial. A renowned atmospheric physicist, he is particularly known for leading the team that produced the first direct observational evidence of an increase in the Earth's greenhouse effect between 1970 and 1997. Published in 2001 in the journal Nature, this research provided fundamental evidence that significant rises in the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide were responsible for warming the Earth by trapping more of the sun's heat in the atmosphere.
Professor Harries' career began at the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, in 1967 where he worked while carrying out his PhD at King's College London. He went on to become Principal Scientific Officer and Head of Environmental Standards Group before joining the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in 1980 to help to develop a new Division of Geophysics and Radio. During this period, he continued his scientific interest in atmospheric physics, and became Associate Director and Head of the new Space Science Department in 1986, focusing on atmospheric and astrophysical space research, and space technology. He joined Imperial in 1994 as Professor of Earth Observation and took on the role of Head of the Space and Atmospheric Group between 1999 and 2006. He is a past President of the Royal Meteorological Society, and of the International Radiation Commission, and has been a member of the Natural Environment Research Council and several NERC Boards. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics, the Royal Meteorological Society, the American Geophysical Union and a member of the American Meteorological Society.
