I am often told there is no evidence for global warming so let's deal with that once and for all, here are SOME of the more obvious pieces of evidence. I have more if you want them. You might quibble with a few of these (if you do, I expect to see a scientific reference to support your claims) but the sheer bulk of the evidence is overwhelming. EVIDENCE FOR GLOBAL WARMING 1. CO2 passing 416 ppm for the first time in 30 million years (https://files.secure.website/wscfus/9167827/4542986/co2-400-m-years-400-ppm-20-m.png) 2. The increase in CO2 matched by the drop in O2 means the additional CO2 is coming from the burning of fossil fuels (C + O2 = CO2) (http://www.climatechange2013.org/images/figures/WGI_AR5_Fig6-3.jpg) 3. The isotopic mixture in atmospheric CO2 changing, showing link to fossil fuels burning (https://protonsforbreakfast.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/c13_mlo_spo.jpg) 4. Oceans acidification due to absorbing some of the excess atmospheric CO2, showing oceans still absorbing more CO2 than they release: (http://www.sciencebuzz.org/sites/default/files/images/OA_Graph_small.jpg) 5. Some parts of the world greening due to extra CO2, but other parts browning (https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/change_in_leaf_area.jpg) 6. The rise in CH4 from melting permafrost and increase agricultural/energy industry emission. (https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/webdata/ccgg/trends/ch4_trend_all_gl.png) 7. 2019 the second warmest year on record despite it being ENSO neutral (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/global/time-series/globe/land_ocean/ytd/12/1880-2019) 8. Every decade since 1950's has been warmer than the last (https://www.globalchange.gov/browse/multimedia/global-temperature-change-decade-averages) 9. 2020 so far is on pace to overtake 2019 as the second warmest on record (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/monitoring-content/sotc/global/2020/apr/global-land-ocean-anomalies-202001-202004.png) 10. January 2020 was the warmest January on record 11. All 6 of the last 6 years have been in the top 6 hottest years on record. (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/global/time-series/globe/land_ocean/ytd/12/1880-2019) 12. The 18 warmest years on record have all occurred in the last 20 years (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/global/time-series/globe/land_ocean/ytd/12/1880-2019) 13. Last month that had a global temperature average below its 20th Century average was over 35 years ago. (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/global/time-series/globe/land_ocean/all/12/1880-2019) 14. Polar Amplification: High latitudes warming faster than equatorial regions, so not the result of changes in the solar input to the Earth. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_amplification#/media/File:GISS_temperature_2000-09.png) 15. The surface warming faster (0.20C/decade) than the lower troposphere (alt. 4km) according to UAH (run by two climate skeptics) at a rate of about 0.15C/decade, showing the sun is not involved (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/upper-air/201913) 16. The lower troposphere warming faster the mid troposphere (alt. 7km) (ditto) at a rate (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/upper-air/201913) , showing the sun is not involved. 17. The stratosphere (alt. 17 km) cooling (ditto) – a unique signature of AGW – at a rate of about -0.4C/decade (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/upper-air/201913) 18. The top 700 meters of the oceans have warmed by about 0.4C in the last 50 years (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Evidence_of_global_warming_-_time_series_of_seasonal_(red_dots)_and_annual_average_(black_line)_of_global_upper_ocean_heat_content_for_the_0-700m_layer_between_1955-2008.gif) 19. Nights are warming faster than days (https://skepticalscience.com/human_fingerprint_warmer_nights.shtml) 20. Winters warming faster than summers (https://www.skepticalscience.com/print.php?n=474) 21. Solar activity has been steadily declining since 1957 while global temperatures have soared. (https://www.skepticalscience.com/print.php?n=474) 22. From 1993 to 2016 the Greenland icecap (i.e., land ice) has lost 286 Billion tons of ice per year (a billion tons of ice is a cubic kilometer) – NASA GRACE Mission (https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/30879) 23. Over the same period The Antarctic Ice Cap has lost 127 billion tons of ice per year – GRACE (https://gracefo.jpl.nasa.gov/resources/34/antarctic-ice-loss-2002-2016/) 24. The northern hemisphere is losing about 4% of its sea ice every decade, measured from 1981 – present. (https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/the-arctic-is-experiencing-its-most-unprecedented-transition-in-history-heres-why) 25. Over the same time Antarctic sea ice has grown by 0.8% per decade but has lost 18% of its sea ice in the last 6 years. (https://static.skepticalscience.com/pics/GlobalSeaIce.gif) 26. Overall sea ice is declining at a rate of about 1.4% per decade. ( https://static.skepticalscience.com/pics/GlobalSeaIce.gif) 27. Glaciers all over the world are retreating and/or collapsing (getting thinner) (https://www.skepticalscience.com/himalayan-glaciers-growing.htm) 28. Snow cover has been steadily decreasing over the last 5 decades ( https://www.climatecentral.org/gallery/graphics/snow-cover-on-the-decline-in-north-america) 29. Snow melt is getting earlier each year (https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/grad/snomelt.html) 30. Sea levels are rising due to thermal expansion and land ice melt (https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/sea-level/) 31. Bleaching damaging most corals around the world due mainly to higher water temperatures and ocean acidification (https://assets.climatecentral.org/images/made/4_28_16_GBR_CoralSeaTemp_1050_718_s_c1_c_c.jpg) 32. Algae blooms becoming more common as water temperatures rise and greater pollution is leading to larger dead spots in the oceans and lakes (https://kenoraonline.com/local/algae-blooms-increasing) 33. Extreme weather events associated with more atmospheric energy (i.e., temperature) are on the rise (https://static.skepticalscience.com/pics/MunichReDisasterFrequency.png) 34. Milder winters allowing some pests to thrive – killing billions of trees in the West (the dead wood provides yet more fuel for fires) (https://summitvoice.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/spruce-beetle-graph.jpg) 35. More and bigger forest fires due to widespread drought in some areas (https://assets.climatecentral.org/images/made/6_23_16_Report_LargeWildfires_1050_718_s_c1_c_c.jpg) 36. Warmer air temperature allows more water content so when it does rain you get a deluge and flooding (see fig 1. https://www.pnas.org/content/104/39/15248) 37. Planting zones moving poleward (https://blogs.massaudubon.org/yourgreatoutdoors/recommendations-for-planting-have-changed/) 38.

It's our first inter-glacial period, which we can measure, observe, and record. The past is speculation, as is the future. Consensus, doesn't necessarily make it factual, and true. There is a consensus, among literally billions of people, that God exists. Guess it depends on your faith and who, or what, you wish to worship. Personally, I like a warm climate. That was one of the main reasons I moved to Florida. Hurricanes haven't been more severe, or frequent, more the opposite. Lived here since 1986... They have changed how the measure wind speed. They also started naming sub-tropical storms. Still have trouble using all 22 names. Very flat, low elevation, and we still haven't flooded from the alarming rising sea levels... Beaches are still about the same, except maybe more women in bikinis, who shouldn't. Some might not be actually be women either... Polar bear and penguin populations growing, and doing fine. Although, many of the polar bears have gotten lazy, instead of hunting, they seem to prefer the easy meals they get from knocking over Eskimo trash cans, or foraging landfills. Less labor intensive, probably don't have to go swimming in the icy water either. More CO2, makes plants grow faster, strong, more productive. Seems like more food is a good thing. I have more faith in nature, it's been doing a fine job of supporting life, longer than we, as a species, has walked on our hind legs. We can be smart, trust nature, and adapt to the changes, as we always have, and survived quite well. Fighting nature, has never turned out well, or been successful. Ever notice, most humans aren't covered in thick fur? It's because we are adapted, and ready for a warmer climate. It's our first inter-glacial, so how do climatologist know when we hit peak warming/thawing, from the Great Ice Age? how does anyone know, what 'normal' should be. I ain't missing the ice and snow. Been enjoying some mild winters these past few years. Wish you cult people would leave this alone. Solar and wind farms are ugly, inefficient, and take up a lot of prime farm land. And quit trying to steal my money, and my SUV. |

You must begin with an unambiguous falsifiable definition for anything to be able to be classified as "evidence" for it. So, lay it on me. I am standing by for your unambiguous, falsifiable definition. DRKTS wrote: ... so let's deal with that once and for all, here are SOME of the more obvious pieces of evidence. Nope. I just told you that you must first start with an unambiguous, falsifiable definition. At the moment you are putting the cart before the horse. We need an unambiguous, falsifiable definition first. ---------------- [notes: "1. CO2 passing 416 ppm for the first time in 30 million years " This is a purely fabricated datum that has nothing to do with increasing temperature. "2.The increase in CO2 matched by the drop in O2 means the additional CO2 is coming from the burning of fossil fuels (C + O2 = CO2)" There are no measurements of global atmospheric CO2 or of O2, molecules don't have metadata tags explaining their orogin, fossils don't burn and nothing in this relates to temperature. "3. The isotopic mixture in atmospheric CO2 changing, showing link to fossil fuels burning" CO2 has no "isotopic mixture" and this has nothing to do with temperature. "4. Oceans acidification due to absorbing some of the excess atmospheric CO2, showing oceans still absorbing more CO2 than they release" The ocean has never acidified. Nobody knows the ocean's average alkalinity. The ocean releases all CO2 that it absorbs. This point has nothing to do with temperature. "5. Some parts of the world greening due to extra CO2, but other parts browning" This has nothing to do with temperature. "6. The rise in CH4 from melting permafrost and increase agricultural/energy industry emission." Molecules do not have metadata tags for their origin. Conclusion is completely unsupported. Has nothing to do with temperature. "7. 2019 the second warmest year on record despite it being ENSO neutral " What temperature was 2019? "8. Every decade since 1950's has been warmer than the last" What were those years' specific temperatures? " 9.2020 so far is on pace to overtake 2019 as the second warmest on record" How does a year like 2020 "overtake" a temperature? "10. January 2020 was the warmest January on record" What temperature was January 2020? "11. All 6 of the last 6 years have been in the top 6 hottest years on record. " What were their temperatures? "12. The 18 warmest years on record have all occurred in the last 20 years " I have to make a gullibility trophy. You are the recipient of this year's award. What were the temperatures of those 18 years? "13. Last month that had a global temperature average below its 20th Century average was over 35 years ago. " What are the months' 20th Century average temperatures? "14. Polar Amplification: High latitudes warming faster than equatorial regions, so not the result of changes in the solar input to the Earth. " This is an egregious violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics, on its face and the claim of "warming" is totally unsubstantiated. "15. The surface warming faster (0.20C/decade) than the lower troposphere (alt. 4km) " This is an egregious violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics, on its face and the claim of "warming" is totally unsubstantiated. "16. The lower troposphere warming faster the mid troposphere (alt. 7km) (ditto)" This is an egregious violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics, on its face and the claim of "warming" is totally unsubstantiated. "17. The stratosphere (alt. 17 km) cooling (ditto) – a unique signature of AGW – at a rate of about -0.4C/decade" This was presumably measured via all those millions upon millions of evenly distributed thermometers floating in the stratosphere ... or maybe "the SATELLITES are doing it." "18. The top 700 meters of the oceans have warmed by about 0.4C in the last 50 years" There's only one ocean and nobody knows its average temperature or whether it has changed. "19. Nights are warming faster than days" What? "20. Winters warming faster than summers" ¿Qué? "21. Solar activity has been steadily declining since 1957 while global temperatures have soared." I'll buy possible declining solar activity; it might explain why things SEEM to be getting cooler, but your claim of increasing temperatures, whie being patently absurd on its face is totally unsupported. "22. From 1993 to 2016 the Greenland icecap (i.e., land ice) has lost 286 Billion tons of ice per year " Nope. Greenland continues to gain net ice mass through surface accumulation of meters per year. Anyone who has actually worked in Greenland can tell you that. "23. Over the same period The Antarctic Ice Cap has lost 127 billion tons of ice per year." Antarctica is gaining net ice mass every year per surface accumulation of meters per year. "24. The northern hemisphere is losing about 4% of its sea ice every decade, measured from 1981 – present. " Every year, Antarctica gains lots of sea ice in the winter and then loses it in the summer, and this has never changed. The total amount fluctuates from year to year but there has been no steady long-term decrease. "25. Over the same time Antarctic sea ice has grown by 0.8% per decade but has lost 18% of its sea ice in the last 6 years. " Pure fabrication. There are no valid datasets corroborating this. "26. Overall sea ice is declining at a rate of about 1.4% per decade." Nope. There are no valid datasets corroborating this. "27. Glaciers all over the world are retreating and/or collapsing (getting thinner)" ... while others are growing and/or being born. The overall net balance remains at zero as far as anyone can tell. "28. Snow cover has been steadily decreasing over the last 5 decades" while snow cover in other places has been steadily increasing over that same time. The net balance is zero as far as anyone can tell. "29. Snow melt is getting earlier each year" Stupid comment for the gullible. Snow melt is always occurring somewhere in the world. "30. Sea levels are rising due to thermal expansion and land ice melt" Sea levels are not rising tp any perceptible extent. There are things that any adult can do to convince oneself that there is no discernible sea level rise "31. Bleaching damaging most corals around the world due mainly to higher water temperatures and ocean acidification" The ocean has never acidified, there is no bleach being generated in the ocean, corals regain their algae after ejecting them and their colors return. "32. Algae blooms becoming more common as water temperatures rise and greater pollution is leading to larger dead spots in the oceans and lakes" There are no valid datasets supporting the contention that the ocean's average temperature is somehow rising. Yes, pollution can spur algae growth but that has nothing to do with temperature. "33. Extreme weather events associated with more atmospheric energy (i.e., temperature) are on the rise" Nope. "34. Milder winters allowing some pests to thrive – killing billions of trees in the West (the dead wood provides yet more fuel for fires)" While that might very well a natural result of a mild winter, there are no valid datasets that support any sort of forecast for milder future winters. "35. More and bigger forest fires due to widespread drought in some areas" This has nothing to do with temperature and everything to do with government mismanagement of land resources. The more Marxist the government, the more mismanaged the land resources are. "36. Warmer air temperature allows more water content so when it does rain you get a deluge and flooding " Now all you need is to somehow show "warmer temperatures." "37. Planting zones moving poleward " ... with planting zones that have to be continually moved equatorward. "38. Animal migrations earlier and further north and higher" with animal migrations that are later and further south and lower. "39. Tropical diseases spreading to temperate areas" because diseases spread. That's what they do. "40. Permafrost melting" with permafrost forming. "41. Reduced snowfall in marginal areas like the UK" to balance out the increased precipitation in other places, keeping the net balance at zero. "42. Increased rate of species extinction especially fast among amphibians" Nobody is tracking all species because it's not possible, and certainly no one is able to track new species as they come into existence.

Less labor intensive, probably don't have to go swimming in the icy water either. Reference please on polar bear and penguin populations More CO2, makes plants grow faster, strong, more productive. Seems like more food is a good thing. Under controlled conditions of high soil moisture and plentiful nutrients SOME plants do better in high CO2 conditions INITIALLY. They usually adapt. However that does not mean more food. I have more faith in nature, it's been doing a fine job of supporting life, longer than we, as a species, has walked on our hind legs. We can be smart, trust nature, and adapt to the changes, as we always have, and survived quite well. Fighting nature, has never turned out well, or been successful. Ever notice, most humans aren't covered in thick fur? It's because we are adapted, and ready for a warmer climate. It's our first inter-glacial, so how do climatologist know when we hit peak warming/thawing, from the Great Ice Age? how does anyone know, what 'normal' should be. I ain't missing the ice and snow. Been enjoying some mild winters these past few years. Wish you cult people would leave this alone. Solar and wind farms are ugly, inefficient, and take up a lot of prime farm land. And quit trying to steal my money, and my SUV. The climate is currently as warm as anytime during our evolution so we don't know if we can adapt to warmer conditions. More people die of hot weather ailments than cold weather ones. How do climatologists know that when we hit the peak of warming after the last great ice age? They measured it from the parameters that caused the warming (the earth's orbit, the Sun, atmospheric composition, etc.) You mean solar farms are uglier than open cast coal mines and oil shale excavations or miles of oil well pumps smelling of rotten eggs? I dont think so. The only ones trying to steal your money are the oilc and coal companies while making you breathe in their pollution. |

There is evidence of AGW but the IPCC has hurt this debate by gerrymandering data. tmiddles likes to waste other people's time by engaging people who have no interest in discussing climate change. It is a waste of time to discuss something when people have no interest in understanding the subject content. Covid 19 aka coronavirus is a basic example. Shut down the economy for 2 months or wear a mask and keep space between people? People prefer the economy being shut down. Why? In some societies, requiring the government to mandate socialist values is against a free market economy and capitalism. Yet they're not complaining about not being able to go to a movie, right? They can't go to the local watering hole and have a beer. Just not a problem. Practising preventive measures is. I'm not sure any society can survive this level of ignorance and it's not just in the US. It's global. |

It sounds like you are gullibly buying into bogus conclusions of accurate historical information about the planet. That would take a special kind of stupid. There is nothing for us to measure. We cannot travel back in time to measure anything. What you have is your misguided faith in "proxy data" which is neither valid nor accepted in science. So the correct answer is "No, we don't have any evidence" ... and we cannot anyway since Global Warming is an empty, undefined term. It's nothing more than a religious concept in Global Warming dogma and carries no meaning beyond that. You cannot have "evidence" of something that doesn't exist for which to have evidence.

Welcome DRKTS.Based on my models you will probably stop posting on this forum in less than 2 weeks because IBDM and ITN are mean as cats poo.They are also correct if that matters.I have been involved in this Climate debate as I wished to find the truth and I will list my personal discoveries. .No human on the planet can point a finger at the sea level and say to me it was here now its here .Satallites have no magic power to measure temperature or sea level .CO2 is good.In North America it can get over 800ppm in Autumn so what.Next spring it gets sucked up again .Pollution is bad and was recognised in the early 70s and dealt with massively so stop beating yourself up its not your fault I recycle and do my bit because I choose to .Your references are NASA who are not to be trusted check there childrens page on Satallites and tell me you believe that nonsense about measuring to the centre of the Earth .I have been banned from SkS as I questioned their methodolgy the forum is for believers to share data and feel warm and fuzzy. I know the IPCC fudge their data as I started the page on Nils-Axel Mörner who was appointed chair in 1988 at the formation of the IPCC to research sea levels and he and his team of 13 came back with the Northern Hemisphere is gaining a millimetre a year and the southern hemisphere nothing at all and the board would not accept it so he resigned and they found someone to put up the data that they needed.The IPCC board freely admit they appoint who they wish on their website.Why are 5000 scientist who care not randomly drafted and have 50 do the report.I doubt it will be the same as the ones being released now Again welcome aboard you have breathed life in to a faded forum.Regards Duncan from west Australia |

The IPCC board (if there is such a thing) does not appoint people to the IPCC, national governments, leading professional scientific societies and academies, and universities send representatives.

What has this got to do with Covid19 and politics? These are observations reported from every corner of the Earth by people of all political persuasions. Trying to derail the discussion by trying to make it "us" vs "them" is a diversion by those who are fresh out of scientific counter arguments. It is designed to stop people thinking rationally based on the facts and make them act tribally. It is the last resort of the desperate. The signs of global warming are everywhere to be seen if you only look with an open mind. That is why there is such a vitriolic reaction when new confirming data appears every month. |

Hi DRKTS.SkS is a forum called Skeptical science that I came across when looking for forums on climate change and its only my opinion but it seems to be the Headquarters for people who believe this AGW/CC stuff.If you post material agreeing to the problem it gets debated and everyone gets a little more scared.If you ask a few questions like I did like where is the sea going up you will get all the fact sheets/data but if you question the data you get moderated and blocked like I did.I can feel your frustration that we are not accepting your view but imagine my frustration if you all send us back to the dark ages for no good reason like it seems you want to.Do not inflict your insanity on me.leave it alone |

I was born May 1961 and this was happening In November 1961, thalidomide was taken off the market due to massive pressure from the press and public. Experts estimate that the drug thalidomide led to the death of approximately 2,000 children and serious birth defects in more than 10,000 children, about 5,000 of them in West Germany. yeah the Experts sure got that one right. |

Sure, this is one of my favorites. It is actually a collection of related models that arguably has done more to shape our world than anything else.  tmiddles wrote: Kinda need to know what "science" is according to you ITN if your claim it's being denied is to be understood. I'm wondering which is greater, the number of elementary particles in the universe or the number of times this question has been answered. Science is a collection of falsifiable models that predict nature. Note each word in that definition. They all have meaning. Don't be omitting any of them. By the way, you could have easily told DRKTS what science is. . I don't think i can [define it].

You see then we can compare and contrast how those people did that thing with how some other jokers are getting it all wrong. How about the development of electrical power generation? In fact let's focus it: The "Dynamo" the generator itself. How about that as a "good example" of "Science"? done right?

Would you like to call it "technology"? And the reason I ask is that an example, one involving human activity, has never been provided. You said earlier that there is a "shape our world" thing happening. That means that understanding/knowledge/data is being used/applied in some fashion. Decisions are being made. Give an example. The Covid-19 and Global Warming issues are examples of humans struggling mightily to make decisions and figure things out. |

DRKTS wrote:...engineering, the application of scientific principles to every day life to create new technologies.Well they don't have to be new. And I think for the purposes of all discussion here it should be acknowledged that not everyone earns an A+ on the work they do. Someone can have really terrible/lame/ineffective technology or engineering. But if someone wants to call the Paris Accords a work of engineering I have no problem with that. |

However I note lots of questions, negative comments and counter arguments there. In some cases heated even debate debate. So I am not sure why they blocked you but it does not seem to be for simply asking questions about the data. I am not inflicting "my insanity" on your or anyone else. I am providing information (data and observations) to fuel a debate. The insanity I see is people denying the facts and introducing red herrings (e.g., redefining words, misquoting people, making up strawman arguments, and introducing religion or politics) rather than discussing the interpretation of the data with an open mind (see some of the posts above). |

There is sociology, which leads to social engineering, and ultimately socialism. Global socialism is the goal, since everybody has to be involved. Prior attempts always failed, because not enough people were getting 'free-stuff', right? |
