Now you are confusing me! Infrared energy does not have a thermal component until it hits something it is an electromagnetic wave. So the supposed temperature of the gas is irrelavent it aborbs and then re-radiates IR some of which goes back to earth and irradiates what it hits hence warming it. Simple. It violates no law it is just redirecting energy. |

You are still mixing heating and emitting. The absorbed IR excites the CO2 molecule which then re-emits the IR in all directions until it reaches a calm state. So still nothing to do with violating Laws of thermodymamics. Thoughjts |

Rising global temperatures have been accompanied by changes in weather and climate. Many places have seen changes in rainfall, resulting in more floods, droughts, or intense rain, as well as more frequent and severe heat waves. The planet's oceans and glaciers have also experienced some big changes - oceans are warming and becoming more acidic, ice caps are melting, and sea levels are rising. public health issue |

Ibdaman I am just trying to understand why you keep talking about magic properties when what I want to know is why you cannot accept the absorbtion and reradiation of IR by CO2 happens! it is nothing to do with temperature. If you can tell me what the temperature of an IR wave travelling through space is I will concede your point, otherwise you don't really have a point. |

MK001 wrote: Most gases, and carbon dioxide is no exception, absorb certain frequencies of light on occasion. In the case of carbon dioxide, about 1% of it will actually absorb anything. The rest is unaffected. When light is absorbed, it is converted into thermal energy (a slight increase in temperature). Thermal energy and electromagnetic energy are two separate things, but they are both forms of energy. This slightly warmer molecule will lose its energy to surrounding matter (the rest of the atmosphere). As a whole, this thermal rises along with any other warmer air and cools. This is the 2nd law of thermodynamics in action. According to the Mauna Loa station, they currently see about 0.04% of the atmosphere is carbon dioxide. About one percent of THAT (or about 0.004%) is involved with heating the remaining 99.996% of the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide adds very little warmth to anything, and what it does add is simply vented upward with the rest. As for heating the surface, the surface is already warmer than the atmosphere (generating most of the heat that warms the atmosphere already). Since you cannot heat a warmer substance with a colder one, the effect of carbon dioxide on the surface is nil. It is again the 2nd law of thermodynamics that says this. Electromagnetic energy in and of itself has no temperature, but a relationship between the warmth of a substance and the electromagnetic radiation it does emit can be found using Planck's Law. According to this law, what the substance is doesn't matter. Only the temperature of it matters. This is why you often hear of some light emitting device as having a 'temperature'. It is not a true temperature, but an indication of the temperature of a substance emitting that color light. It is why when something becomes hot enough to glow, it always glows red, and always at the same temperature. Infrared is also a 'glow', but we can't see it. The Earth has an infrared 'glow' made up of the overall temperature of the Earth and its atmosphere. Since temperature varies throughout the Earth and its atmosphere, this glow is somewhat broadband in color. Carbon dioxide, having no remarkable electromagnetic or thermal properties, is simply part of this overall 'glow'. So you see carbon dioxide absorption has everything to do with temperature, just not in the way the climate alarmists describe. I do not use the term magic. I use the term magick, in the full sense of the meaning Crowley's works. For carbon dioxide to retain heat (the Magick Blanket theory), would be to ignore the effects of dispersion of thermal energy into the atmosphere and to ignore the vertical movement of air, in short it would have to violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics. For carbon dioxide to reflect energy (the Magick Mirror theory), would be to ignore the effects of what absorption does to carbon dioxide, and to attempt to heat the warmer surface with a colder substance. This not only violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics, but also Planck's Law. For carbon dioxide to somehow make the surface hotter (the Magick Spaceheater theory), would require a non-energy substance to add energy to the atmosphere (remember energy is both electromagnetic and thermal energy combined). This violates the 1st law of thermodynamics. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. For further reference to the use of the word 'magick', see Aleister Crowley's works where he differentiates the word 'magic' (a trick where it is a known trick, done for entertainment purposes), and 'magick' (a mysterious force).

Global warming could eventually lead to the ice age occurring sooner. So, the two can't necessarily be split into separate scenarios, although it seems that way. Melting ice could ultimately trigger "ice age" like situations in some areas, as ice melts slowing ocean currents, resulting in less heating from the gulf stream in some areas. Whether this would occur and how quickly it would happen remains to be seen. Eventually though, yes another ice age is likely to occur at some point. However, it could be thousands of years before it does. I say why mess up the thousands of years that we have of a very human friendly climate. |

His analysis confused the opacity of a gas with it's absorptivity at certain IR wavelengths. Just like Surface Detail, I'd like to know what the difference between opacity and absorptivity is. He also jumped to the conclusion of the Global Warming argument as a non-sequitur, not realizing he crossed into a circular argument. Actually, not once does Tyndall ever mention global warming or climate change or even some vague term that one could translate as either. His tests were simply created to explain why the Earth did not share the same daily temperature swings as were observed on the moon, an observation that was well-known well before his experiments. He simply was the first to produce an experiment that gave plausible reasons. You have to go to Arrhenius a good 3-4 decades later to find when Tyndall's tests were linked to climate change, which happened, if not when he was dead, definitely not too long prior. Can I get in on this? When and where was Tyndall's experiment corrected? The rest of the context from IBdaMann's quote: "Raw data does not show accurate trends. As many deniers like to state, using raw data would not account for effects like the Urban Heat Island effect or El Nino's and La Nina's (though the latter can and does show up even when the data is modified) as well as basic noise from normal, natural changes in yearly weather patterns. This is why climatologists use anomalous temperature events rather than actual temperatures, as they've proven to be more accurate at showing trends." Edited on 07-09-2016 04:43 |

John Tyndall's Bakerian Lecture, Read February 7, 1861: DE SAUSSURE, FOURIER, M. POUILLET, and Mr. HOPEINS regard this interception of the terrestrial rays as exercising the most important influence on climate. Now if, as the above experiments indicate, the chief influence be exercised by the aqueous vapour, every variation of this constituent must produce a change of climate. Similar remarks would apply to the carbonic acid diffused through the air; while an almost inappreciable admixture of any of the hydrocarbon vapours would produce great effects on the terrestrial rays and produce corresponding changes of climate. Leafsdude wrote: When and where was Tyndall's experiment corrected? Tyndall had more than one experiment. The data/observations are immortalized.

If you could expand on some of your claims that are more controversial I think it would strengthen your overall conclusion. The current research I've seen on oceanic warming trends has seen a negative impact on marine species and the extinction of other species in our ecosystems, could you explain what sources have given evidence that there will be expansion among some species? Is it only true for land species? I'd love to hear more about our geological records and the movement of land masses in indicating not only a trend toward the icehouse phase, but also how the greenhouse phase has been more survivable in our past. Which organizations record land mass movements and what methods are climate scientists using? Are they examining fossilization or strata to come to conclusions about past climate changes? I believe that there is a false dilemma in stating that our planet will either cool or warm to such a dramatic degree, necessitating that we must pick whether to encourage the icehouse phase or the greenhouse phase with our practices. Does our planet have any mechanisms to return to equilibrium and how or why are they not effective? I agree that humans have impacted our current climate a great deal, but I'm not sure whether our actions now could prompt any reversal. A policy change to accommodate climate change is unfortunately not a position that everyone holds, so I think one of the main issues is that people can dismiss some of the claims in your argument that support our need for one, and then we won't be able to actually discuss whether greenhouse or icehouse has more positive or negative effects. I'm also curious to know if you've encountered people who have been promoting cooling trends towards the glacial phase over warming, and what claims they've been making. Perhaps they only mean cooling to a degree to combat the effects of global warming, because I would hope both camps of the climate change debate wouldn't want either extremes of planet warming or cooling. Thanks so much for your time! |

Man has no control over the climate and hence we have no choice but to put up with whatever the climate at any particular time is. Remember that man appeared somewhat simultaneously in the middle east and in northern Africa during the retreat of the Snowball Earth glaciers in the extreme ice age of some 300,000 years ago. At that time geology seems to show that the Sahara was a green wonderland of food and fuel. Man already inherited the hunting instinct but his increased intelligent over the three or four other Sapiens species around at that time allowed him to learn how to make and use fire. This in turn gave him a huge competitive advantage since it increased his lifespan. The longer you live, the more you can learn and that knowledge helps you to live longer yet. In any case man was born in an ice age and though we are presently in an interglacial period we ARE working our way back down into another glacial period. We ARE in what could be termed a "warm period" which occur every millennia or so, but each one is a little cooler than the previous one so, contrary to the environmentalist misunderstanding of nature, the temperature of the globe is doing nothing more than following the great plan of the Universe. |
