I like the term fossil fuel.When it is used everyone knows what it means
I like the term greenhouse gas when it is used everyone knows what it means
I like the term Global warming when it is used everyone knows what it means

Yeah, but some of my favorite words seem to get censored on this site, for some reason. Even small children know what they mean, and use them. Some people are just more easily offended, than others.

Some object to the terms you listed, based on accuracy or belief. Sort of a weak argument to raise, since they are only words, and very simply describe something, that would take much more typing to avoid using, something everyone already knows what you are referring to. It's really an objection, meant to take control over a discussion, and put you on the defensive, and to deflect from the point you just made. For some, every discussion, needs to be a debate game, and there can be no separation. It has to be an argument, and there has to be a 'winner'. It is the 'Climate-Debate' website, so the games are to be expected, doesn't mean you are obligated in playing. I simply walk away from the games, and either start a new thread, or find another, let them play it out. 'Winning', just isn't that important here.

Except that roughly 99.99% of the people who use the term are confused about what it means AND what it implies.

Except that there isn't a person alive who knows what the term means. Shall we start with you?

Only those scientifically illiterate morons who worship that religion as ordered pretend they know what it means except they are instantly transformed into flailing hee-haww donkeys with a case of Tourett's on steroids if asked to unambiguously define it. Shall we start with you?

Most people understand that they are catch phrases, and what they refer to. Global warming and Climate Change, refer to a silly cult of pseudo-scientists, bent on destroying the economy, an taking over the world, as one form of socialist government.

Fossil Fuels, refer to coal and oil, that was taken out of the ground, and presumed to have been there a very long time. I don't recall anyone trying to 'date' these product deposits, or even caring. Before man started using, and exploiting these resources, they were known to exist, for a long time. Tar pits, and oil pools were bad things to be avoided.

Other than joining the cult, getting to what these nut jobs are actually saying, is pointless. The misuse a lot of words, science, and make up phrases constantly. That's pretty much how a cult draws you in. Your a moron, if you don't understand their language. And by the time you learn all their crap, you are broken, and a cult member. It takes faith, to accept any meaning of there crap, and insane to try and comprehend it, and remain objective.

I'll continue to use these common phrase, occasionally bother to use single quotes, if I care enough, not to offend the weak, or hope to avoid a silly debate-game deflection, to derail the thread, over semantics. Easy win, if the thread was intended as a debate, and not a simple discussion. But for some here, everything has to be debated, and reduced to ridiculous. New members, not interested in perpetual arguments, don't stick around long. Some people really need those 'small wins', to function in life.

People that deny science are morons. People that never learned science are illiterate.

Figure it out.

The 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics have been given to you. The Stefan-Boltzmann law has been given to you. These are based on theories of science. You can't just discard them. That is being a moron. It is an argument of the Stone fallacy. You can't just change them. That is discarding them.

No gas or vapor is capable of warming the Earth.

You repeat that no gas or vapour is capable of warming the Earth but the atmosphere does something to the temperature and its gas

Duncan, are you asking how it is that the atmosphere is warmed by the sun and by earth's thermal radiation? You seem confused over something pretty basic.

Perhaps you are confusing "cause" with "effect." The atmosphere is warmed by the sun and the earth, not the other way around.


I hope that helps.

Nothing. The atmosphere is incapable of warming the Earth. Also note that the atmosphere is part of the Earth.

Out in space, around the Earth, the ISS is receiving the same energy from the Sun. The Moon is also, essentially a natural satellite around Earth.

Assuming the Sun's output is the same, they do not change temperature either. They remain the same.

Surface temperature on the Moon can vary widely, but it's overall temperature remains the same.

Surface temperature on the surface of Earth varies very little, compared to the Moon, but it's overall temperature remains the same.

An atmosphere is mass. It takes time to heat it and cool it. Daytime and nighttime temperatures do not vary as widely as the surface of the Moon for that reason. The atmosphere is incapable of warming the Earth.

There. Fixed the formatting for you. I'm glad you are starting to see that CO2 does nothing to the temperature of the Earth. A bit of reflection like this often helps.

Its 24 hours later and I have put a new battery in my laser temperature gun.How can a cooler atmosphere warm the hotter surface.I am surprised you believed that ITN.
