And a happy new year to you as well. I would assume you've been drinking, though it's a little early in the day. Perhaps just hung over. On what points do you still have questions? CO2 absorbs IR Humans have been emitting gigatonnes of CO2 since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution The Earth has been and continues warming primarily because of it That warming presents a significant threat to human infrastructure, food and drinking water supplies Edited on 01-01-2015 15:13 |

whether anything is settled has nothing to do with your opinion. any theory is never truly "settled." Your inflated sense of self importance on this issue is grandiose and delusional as is your understanding of it. That is why nobody want s to debate you. You are the common denominator in that. Scientists don't know how if any infared radiation is being trapped by the extra co2. Recent studies of upper atmosphere point to no extra co2 absorbtion. It's a myth that scientists even know how much extra co2 is contributed by humans. The 4% figure is an overestimate. There are many other sources that could attribute ti the slight increase which is miniscule..but nice use of the buzzword "gigatonnes." The warming of the last century..which is overestimated can be attributed to the warming form the last ice age nothing alarming about it..The 30s were warmer then the 90s before they changed the data. The ground temperature data uses readings from spots like airports that became increasingly more urban through this time span which can cause the reading to be completely useless yet they continued to use that data. The satellite temperature data since 1998 shows no warming at regardless of the fraudulent graphs you show. The global sea temperature hasn't risen since 2003 when they started measuring it regardless of the fraud you spew on that as well. There is no evidence that such a slight warming even if it wasn't fabricated causes such a horrendous threat. The medieval warm period is known by scientists and historians to be an era of prosperity in Europe. There was an improvement in agriculture, infrastructure and the quality of life in general. Your opinion might be based on the fact that you think you are a better person that wnats to save the world from the impending doom which is beyond ridicuolus. you are willing to sacrifice the integrity of science for your ideological standpoint. The study of climate science is in it's infancy. You don't know what you are talking about scientifically on this issue despite you inflated ego and your love for fanny packs and the use of the most fraudulent graphs out there on this issue. I'm assuming the biggest contributer to your standpoint is the consensus studies that are complete nonsense propaganda. You either cannot see that or refuse to. In reality there is "NO" valid evidence of agw. I don't know how far you want to go with your preaching campaign but this issue is going to fall on it's face in a few years when the scientific community refuses to put of with the bullshit anymore. At that point people like you will crawl back int their holes never to apologize for being arrogant douchebags or to admit that they were wrong. They simply will find another environmental scam to fight for. Edited on 01-01-2015 16:29 |

and another thing..nobody has questions for you specifically. You really are an arrogant son of a bitch. You are not an expert on climate. Do you realize what you sound like? You sound like someone who thinks their shit doesn't stink. There are many good scientific websites that hold this debate. On these websites usually half of the accredited scientists don't believe in agw. They are real scientists unlike you. I'm assuming you go to those sites but somehow you feel you need to come here. Maybe you think they are fraud because according to you 99% of all scientists on earth believe the world is going to end and that the Ipcc and their projections are valid. I can get a much better debate and information elsewhere. I wouldn't trust someone like you to change the oil in my car let alone for information on this issue. That is a settled fact on this website too. 97% of posters think you are a flake and that is why nobody wants to debate you.

That's a very well documented myth. It turns out there are two ways to estimate/measure the amount of human emitted CO2 in the Earth's atmosphere. You can simply make a bookkeeping estimate from the records showing how much fossil fuel we have burned over the years OR you can measure the mixture of isotopes in the atmosphere and in samples trapped in ice cores going in to the past. Both give numbers in rough agreement. Atmospheric CO2 has increased from 280 ppm to 400 ppm since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.

The vast majority of scientists don''t believe agw to be settled science. The false consensus reports don't even express that. You believe that propaganda. You are not a climate scientists or anything near one. So the one thing your opinion stands on is completely false. i'm guessing you are someone you takes Bill Nye for his useless opinion. There is no major upset in the consensus of scientitfic opinion as that propaganda is completely fabricated. you are are sheep to mindless reporting on this issue and have no valid source for any of the consensus reports. you have claimed that 99% of all world scientists believe agw is causing all the supposed warming but now you want to back out on that. Your inflated sense of self importance come from attitude of superior knowledge and understanding of the subject and somehow you have a calling to explain the h issue to the masses of people that would have to be less intelligent then you. That is how you come off. You have talked down to everyone on this site with an opposing view that way..It has nothing to do with the false consensus that those people know to be fabricated. Everybody on this board that has debated you has taken off for that reason not because they couldn't debate you any further. A graph doesn't show how they can't account for negative feedbacks. They also don't know how much co2 stays in the atmosphere that is emitted. You probably know that they estimated that humans should be putting more co2 in the atmosphere then is sampled. So in effect it has to be going somewhere. The consensus of that is that it is fueling plant and forest growth but you will never hear that on CNN. They don't know how much radiation is being absorbed as in relation to the excess co2 Labratory conditions cannot mimic the earths atmosphere with valid accuracy. http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2007/06/a-saturated-gassy-argument/ How much extra co2 can be attributed by humans is simply not known The warming since the lat ice age could account for our current warming which has been measured using ground temperature data. thanks for being condescending as usual but i know about UHI as I have for a long time now since I was in elementary school. i don't need links for that. You can't however dispute that the data they were using is not valid because of that warming effect. The investigation into these ground station showed that 30-50% were effected by UHI. They haven't changed the data for that factor though nor could they with any accuracy. The catastrophic effects of warming have been overestimated for a reason. That reason is not in the science. Side argument like the "tipping point" are lose theories that are highly disputed if you see me as a threat to your children's future planet .I will put you ease because whether I buy this agw theory has nothing to do with the planets future climate as does your belief in it. if the powers of world government want to tax me to death and tell me I can't drive a car I will have no power over that and both you and me have now power over that policy regardless of what you think. Most scientists know that driving electric cars or implementing carbon taxes and regulations in first world countries is futile. Your opinion of me on forming my viewpoint for political reasons is false. I am not a political guy. I am certainly not a conservative or a Republican. The left controls this debate. They are not ethical. You view any opposing information as an evil campaign funded by big oil or republican which is a politically skewed view The study of climate science is in it's infancy and here in lies the problem with that...The global warming theory was taken on by the Ipcc in the early 90s to sustain the theory that co2 was the main driver in temperature increase..They were not in the buisiness of considering other major factors like cosmic rays. the earth magnetic field..and many others. They don't study other influences with integrity because findings contrary to their theory wouldn't support the mission. There are so many things scientists don't know about our past and present climate. Their projections have proven to not be valid yet they still hold on to this theory that co2 is driving temperature and will continue to do so. The debate really hasn't even started yet because all these studies that show other major drivers of climate are not reported by mainstream media because of the Ipcc and liberal-environmental bias of this campiagn You have no idea what your are posting is fraudulent. You assume that studies to support agw and their graphs are correct. that is ideology based as you are not working on these studies the evidence of agw would have to lie in controlled labratory studies and observation of climate..both of which have proven to be invalid. I can't place a bet on climate change because i have already won..you see no observed evidence in climate can refute this theory. That is how they set it up and that is why it is a scam..Nothing will ever fall out of the perimeters of climate change. The climate is always changing and there is no agw pusher that will tell you how exactly..only that however it is changing is due to agw...there will always be people that believe in this theory in our lifetime and you will be one of those Edited on 02-01-2015 17:07 |

What would be an observed climate over a 18 year period that could go against agw theory? How long does the climate have to show none of the popular symptoms of climate change pushers such as gradually rising temperatures, increase in frequency and intensity of weather disasters, or tropospheric hot spots? If we stick to the observed climate. You have now admitted to me the warming pause. What exactly are the symptoms of climate change in the last 18 years? How many years need to go by before climate change pushers consider that the theory is not valid? is there a number on that? Is the something completely variable? The last thing I will ever have is a beef with someone that is based on their political viewpoint. Using politics for pushing an agenda which should be scientific is something different though. That goes for the commies and the ayn rand types alike. I don't trust any research on this topic. I'm sorry if you think that's ignorant. I don't have to be a conservative or a liberal. I certainly don't have to be a Democrat or a Republican. That only comes in when i go vote. I realize you have the power to vote but if the government want to implement more taxes or huge regulations on gas powered cars well that is possible even in a democracy. My vote is just one vote at a time as yours is. you are really barking up the wrong tree to come after me on ideological terms.

A sustained (for more than 2 or 3 years) halt or reversal in the ongoing rise in global sea levels would cause some major head scratching for climatologists and pretty much refute AGW theory. This is because the vast majority of the additional heat retained by increased levels of GHGs goes into warming the oceans, which then expand, causing the main part of the observed rise in sea levels (melting ice also makes a contribution, though this can also be attributed to AGW). Global sea level is thus a very good proxy for the overall temperature of the globe - the Earth's natural thermometer, as it were. Note that reversals over a timescale shorter than a couple of years may occur as a result of short term weather conditions, notably during 2011 when torrential rainfall in Australia transferred enormous quanities of sea water onto land. This effect was only temporary though, and the steady rising trend resumed as that water drained back to the oceans. Edited on 03-01-2015 14:59 |

how much has the gmsl rose in the last 2 years? The additional heat retained in our oceans? The measured global sea temperature since 2003 showed no warming for 6 years. There was actually a marginal cooling. Then there was a supposed recalibration?

http://ww.ccphysics.us/henriques/climate/NPR%20Missing%20Heat%20for%20GW.pdf well here is the npr article again before the calibration. The timeline graphs have been changed for the calibration adjustment. You know that there was no warming before they fixed the "calibration' error. It's hard to tell from that graph how much gmsl rise in the last 2 years. What is the agreed sea level rise without the influence of agw? if such a number exists |

So, you now agree that the Argo fleet required a recalibration and that the older data, showing no warming, was in error. So why do you keep repeating the claim that there has been no warming? |

PS, without AGW there is essentially no sea level rise. AGW causes sea level rise by warming the ocean and causing it to expand and by melting ice, primarily in Western Antarctica and Greenland, but also worldwide in glaciers and formerly permanent snowpack. There are sea level changes from non-equilibrium isostasy, but you'd have to ask a geologist what the net result of that might be. |

could you be more specific in the opinion that without agw there is no sea level rise? If that is your official view on that what is that accepted variability in sea level..gmsl rise or decline over what period of time without agw influence? I don't know where you get this viewpoint. http://www.giss.nasa.gov/research/briefs/gornitz_09/ |

I will not agree that the argo fleet required a recalibration. I will agree that the data and trend changed after this calibration error that they reportedly fixed after many years of somehow not knowing about this problem. You may have no problem accepting an explanation like this but my bullshit sensors go off like gangbusters. |

It was accepted by the thousands of PhDs that actually use Argo data on a daily basis. Why does it bother you? |

You should have been bothered - as were those PhDs - when the Argo data seemed to show no warming when the rest of the world did. Your own NPR link tried to tell you that. |

well just because nobody has a campaign against the data doesn't prove they accept that data after the change in calibration. You know that having a career in this field very much requires you to accept agw. I'm sorry but I cannot accept such a thing on face value. I do know one scientist that worked on argo that has spoken out about it and doesn't accept the data. i will find that and post it. right now my computer is on the fritz.. so give a bit and I will get that what has warmed since then.. air temperature or other sea temperature measurements? The article just says after 2003 there were some of the warmest years on record but that doesn't mean an increase in temperatures as they plataued in 1998. Edited on 03-01-2015 20:57 |

Think a little harder about what you've read and what you've seen. |
