OK. So why aren't there any global warming believers on this web site? |

Think we will see a little bit more warming, and much higher CO2 levels, before the next ice age. All normal and natural, nothing to be concerned over, and nothing we can change. Actually a good thing, we are heading toward an long period of idea plant growing climate, which is going to produce a surplus of food. We'll have more, time, money, and resources to work on real problems. |

Harvey, You didn't mention the coming devastation form sea level rise. The sea level rises when it gets warmer you know. |

Earth's distance to it is basically the same, and periodic. There is nothing to warm the Earth other than those two factors.

Because arguing with idiots is a waste of time and the idiots here have a lot of time on their hands. |

ITN, It's true that i assume the earth is getting warmer because of thermal insulators (GG's), but there are many scientists who think they have legitimate measurements of temp and CO2 concentration and there is evidence of ice melting. I don't see how you can ignore it. Edited on 07-06-2019 20:28 |

IBDaMann, I'm not an atheist. The Holy Spirit visited me about 40 years ago and healed my sick and damaged soul. The Holy Spirit was orange but otherwise i don't have words to describe. |

keepit wrote: Thermal insulation works both ways, dude. What keeps light from leaving also prevents light from arriving. Let's assume you can build a box made of a perfect thermal insulator. It does not allow any thermal energy to escape the box. It also would not allow any thermal energy to enter the box. The temperature in such a box would simply remain the same, completely independent of anything going on outside the box. The interior of the box would not warm. keepit wrote: Doesn't matter what they believe. This is a mathematical problem, not a scientific one. Such scientists are denying statistical mathematics. Statistical summaries require the calculation of a value called the margin of error. Temperatures on Earth can vary by as much as 20 deg F per mile. There is 197 million square miles on Earth's surface. There are simply not enough thermometers to get any usable idea of Earth's temperature. It is not possible to build enough thermometers. CO2 concentration is even worse. There are but a few dozen stations, all mounted on Earth's surface, measuring CO2 at all. The most commonly quoted station is the Mauna Kea Observatory station, mounted on an active volcano (that puts out varying amounts of CO2). NONE of the volcanic activity in Hawaii is showing up on the Mauna Kea data. They are cooking the data to remove it, using unknown values to cook it with. Statistical mathematics REQUIRES the use of raw data. Cooked data is not allowed. Cooked data is utterly useless. They do the same with thermometers too. Most thermometers are located near cities. They are not uniformly spaced. They cook the data to remove the 'urban heat island' effect, an unknown value. Cooking the data renders it useless. Location grouping with thermometers is significant. The effect must be removed. Thermometers MUST be uniformly spaced. Time is significant. Storms move. Earth moves. Oceans and air move. All readings MUST be obtained at the same time. Authority is significant. Different authorities have their own agendas. All readings MUST be taken by the same authority. Statistical math is incapable of prediction normally inherent in mathematics due to its use of random numbers. It is incapable of predicting the future (one of the reasons why news polls suck). It is only good for summarizing past or current data. It cannot predict the future. You might as well as use entrails. keepit wrote: Ice melts every summer. It forms every winter. The winter ice extent at the poles has been increasing the past few years. Greenland does not have a massive river in the northwest (the only place the mountains are low enough to allow melting ice to pass). There is no massive lake in the center of Greenland. You evidence is an argument from randU fallacy. This is the fallacy of making up numbers, or using made up numbers. keepit wrote:Easy. It's made up numbers. They are random numbers of type randU.

ITN, Please keep in m ind that when i say, "the ice is melting" i'm not talking about the ice in my drink. Rather, i'm talking about "net ice quantity melting". |

Close enough, isn't good enough. Even if the had millions of thermometers, and figured a way to measure the entire world in an instant, it still wouldn't be accurate, too many external factors influence temperature at any given moment. It' very large planet, only we occupy less than 20% of it, the rest is water. Of the 20% of tsurface, that is land, a very small portion of that, is considered industrialized cities. Mankind's presence on this planet is really kind of small, as is our influence on natural processes. If you try to get the size in perspective, you can understand, we aren't significant enough to change the course of the planet. We are just basically along for the ride. Sure, we are trashing our living environment, polluting the air and water, garbage and sewage every where, but that's just a mess that will eventually get cleaned up, after we are gone. There are a lot of people who see just how filthy we are living, and believe we can do better, and as a whole, would live healthier if we could some how change our habits. Unfortunately, they think they are a whole lot smarter than the bulk of the population, and figure the can lie and manipulate the morons, to get what they want. Most people aren't that stupid, just have different interests and concerns. Lies and scams are very difficult to maintain over long periods of time, truth always comes out. |

It' very large planet, only we occupy less than 20% of it, the rest is water. Of the 20% of tsurface, that is land, a very small portion of that, is considered industrialized cities. Well put. We would need several hundreds of millions of evenly-spaced synchronized thermometers across the entirety of the earth's surface (to include the surface of the ocean), and then another equivalent layer of additional hundreds of millions of evenly-spaced synchronized thermometers about a mile up in altitude, and then another layer another mile up, and another, and another, etc... in order to get an average global temperature in the ballpark of a statistical 20degF margin of error. Let's say we were to place only 100 thermometers in each of 1,000 metropolitan areas around the world (i.e. 100,000 thermometers total) ... the margin of error would be completely unusable for any application.
