What the science says

[jc456]

you wear a tin hat to make sure you don t have to encounter reality
physics is a dangerouse science to you because its about reality

physics can t be real because its in opposition to your belives
chemestry can t be real because its in opposition of your belives
climate science can t be real because its in opposition to your belives

and your belives is the only thing that counts


science doesent matter

Except my belief doesn't include doomsday scenarios so it's all your foil pup!

Climate change: How do we know?
Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet: Evidence

Scientific Consensus

Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists agree that climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human activities, and most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position.

Sea level rise

Global temperature rise

Warming oceans

Shrinking ice sheets

Declining Arctic sea ice

Glacial retreat

Extreme events

Ocean acidification

Decreased snow cover

Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists agree that climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human activities

Yes, 75 out of 77 is very impressive.

It is when that is the number of publishing Climatologists in the US is 77. However, many scientists that are not Climatologists are providing evidence for the rapid warming. Geologists, glacialogists, biologists, and those involved in agriculture science, just to name a few. They are not included in that survey, and the vast majority of them absolutely state that AGW is real.

Scientific opinion on climate change - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A poll performed by Peter Doran and Maggie Kendall Zimmerman at University of Illinois at Chicago received replies from 3,146 of the 10,257 polled Earth scientists. Results were analyzed globally and by specialization. 76 out of 79 climatologists who "listed climate science as their area of expertise and who also have published more than 50% of their recent peer-reviewed papers on the subject of climate change" believed that mean global temperatures had risen compared to pre-1800s levels. Seventy-five of 77 believed that human activity is a significant factor in changing mean global temperatures. Among all respondents, 90% agreed that temperatures have risen compared to pre-1800 levels, and 82% agreed that humans significantly influence the global temperature. Economic geologists and meteorologists were among the biggest doubters, with only 47 percent and 64 percent, respectively, believing in significant human involvement. The authors summarised the findings:

There you go.

I love it!
"We sent a poll to 10,257 scientists and had to reduce our data set to 79 in order to come up with 97%"

Just what we've come to expect from the warmers.
And you wonder why no one trusts them anymore.

good point

and that is absolutely hilarious

doomesday scenarios are whats making the USA depardment of defense anciouse, and the NSA and NASA thinks its a problem too

your tinfoil hat keeps you from seeing reality

 

[hauke]

the Army the Navy the Airforce and Marine Corps are worried, but you got a tin foil hat

That isn't what one wears tin foil hats for, you wear them to ward off CO2.

How do they protect you against CO2?

 

[hauke]

when bangladesh, whose average about 1.2 meters above sea level gets swamped, how is india who has been builduing a wall at its border to bangladesh is going to react when 300 million bangladeshi try to escape death ? whats the usa response going to be when india is going to let 300 million bangladeshi drown ?

donald trump said hes going to build a wall to mexico.

india has been builduing a wall to bangladesh

india doesen t have the ability to safe 300 million bangladeshi

 

[hauke]

India isn t a muslim country, the closest muslim countrys to bangladesh are : malaisia, indonesia,pakistan,iran irak saudi arabia oman jemen egypt

 

[hauke]

i mean that when bangladesh is obliterated by the climate catastrophe

its the job of these muslim countrys to save the bangladeshi, india ain t going to do it

india can t afford to do it

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Most scientist believe that co2 and methane are green house gases...To say otherwise makes you look foolish.

Of course they are.
Only idiots who believe in smart photons and don't understand the laws of thermodynamics say otherwise.

 

[hauke]

toddsterpastriot your so fucking insane anyone knows your crazy

you acctually saying co2 and methane are not greenhouse gases ?

thats so insane your obviousely a crazy person

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

I know English is not your first language, but read my post again.

And something never validated. The atmosphere would be warm if there was heat there. Hmmmmm no observed empirical evidence exists. Hmmmmm squared

Conducting and convection. Why we have wind.

And why we have cool nights in a desert.

Did you forget water is also a greenhouse gas?
Do you have the same brain injury as Hillary?

If you believe they have zero effect, you believe they are not greenhouse gases. Matthew has not misrepresented what you've said.

As always you resort to misrepresenting what was said, whiiiiiich makes you look like a dummy. I stated that in the incredibly small amounts with which they exist in OUR atmosphere, they are not capable of increasing temperature in a measurable way. And, empirical data supports my statement. Not yours.

 

[westwall]

i mean that when bangladesh is obliterated by the climate catastrophe

its the job of these muslim countrys to save the bangladeshi, india ain t going to do it

india can t afford to do it

So, the Maldives are even lower than Bangladesh and they were among the first to go under water. So how is it that they were able to find some fool to invest hundreds of millions of dollars into four new international airports to bring tourists to a place that will supposedly be under water long before that investment could ever be recouped? Hmmm? Riddle us that batman.
