sure, it all is. WiNNiNg...And yet you have no proof.Again, you fail to understand the argument. Causation, still not proven. All kinds of mention how the warmer temps caused more CO2 released from the oceans, yet funny enough none the other way. Yes, they questioned whether that was possible, but never, I repeat, never proven. So laddi dah.The work to establish a connection between CO2 and climate was done way back in the 19th century by John Tyndall.
The Carbon Dioxide Greenhouse Effect
I understand the causality issue. However, it is CLEAR that GHG cause rising temperatures. It is also clear that humans have been pumping ever greater amounts of CO2 and other GHG into the atmosphere ever since the industrial revolution even as the population of the planet has risen seven-fold WHILE we (the collectively we) have also been engaging in massive deforestation. It's no quantum jump in logic to see where these events COULD lead us, and it just so happens that we are there.
Nothing of what I said above is in dispute.
Below are the factual points I made in the previous post:
1. GHG cause rising temperatures.
2. Humans have been pumping ever greater amounts of CO2 and other GHG into the atmosphere ever since the industrial revolution even as the population of the planet has risen seven-fold WHILE we (the collectively we) have also been engaging in massive deforestation.
What is untrue about either of those statements?
Afterward, I stated the follow:
"It's no quantum jump in logic to see where these events COULD lead us, and it just so happens that we are there."
Are we or are we not now at that point where industrialization's side effects are seen as quite possibly having a planet-wide impact on our environment?
