The Church of Global Warming has certainly evolved over the years. It was thriving there in the first years of the new millennium, began to stall around 2007 and then we watched it fall into a tailspin around 2012. As Global Warming now lay tucked into its deathbed, where do warmizombies stand today?

The mainstay argument of 2000 was that certain atmospheric gases cause the earth to increase in temperature. Since nothing about Global Warming has anything to do with science, it took a while for word to get to the lay folk that the claim of "greenhouse gases" increasing temperature violates the 1st LoT.

This minor problem was initially addressed by claiming that "greenhouse gases" somehow "trap" heat. This idea became popular and lingered well after word was spread that no substance has any control over its own radiation, which is regulated purely by its temperature.

Never to be deterred, warmizombies shifted their position to one of "no energy is created, earth's emissions are "slowed." After it was pointed out that earth's emissions always travel at the speed of light and cannot be "slowed" the word was changed to "reduced." Since nothing about Global Warming has anything to do with science, it took a while for word to get to the lay folk that Stefan-Boltzmann renders that idea impossible because thermal radiation for any body is controlled by its temperature, i.e. temperature and emission go the same way so the only way for the earth's emissions to be reduced is for the earth's temperature to be reduced, which precludes the earth's temperature increasing.

I would be remiss if I were to forget to mention that, for a while at least, it was popular to violate the 2nd LoT to show "greenhouse effect." The idea is that no energy is created and the earth's average global temperature stays the same, but the cooler upper atmosphere warms the warmer lower atmosphere such that the earth's surface keeps getting warmer while the upper atmosphere simply keeps getting cooler. Again, this is a direct violation of the 2nd LoT but many warmizombies didn't care, rather being drawn to the theory's elegance of bypassing all the other physics violations of the other "greenhouse effect" theories.

So where we stand today wrt "greenhouse effect" is a thoughtful approach that
renders "not applicable" key aspects of science, as needed, to provide an overall contradiction that can be exploited to make temperature increase (i.e. an energy increase) without any increase in energy that would violate the 1st LoT.

Lies, damn lies, but no actual statistics.

That's because it doesn't. If emission decreases and incoming energy stays the same, the 1st law demands that the temperature increase (assuming no other way of storing energy).

This minor problem was initially addressed by claiming that "greenhouse gases" somehow "trap" heat. This idea became popular and lingered well after word was spread that no substance has any control over its own radiation, which is regulated purely by its temperature.


Completely untrue. Radiation is dependent on emissivity and identity of the radiating substance.

Never to be deterred, warmizombies shifted their position to one of "no energy is created, earth's emissions are "slowed." After it was pointed out that earth's emissions always travel at the speed of light and cannot be "slowed" the word was changed to "reduced."

Slowed in the sense of "emissions are decreased". Only idiots would claim that the light literally slows down. There is a fundamental difference between "slowing light" and "reducing the energy in the light". If you can't get that, go back to school.

Emission can be altered in other ways. Emissivity can change.

I would be remiss if I were to forget to mention that, for a while at least, it was popular to violate the 2nd LoT to show "greenhouse effect."

It doesn't violate the 2nd LoT. You're using the imaginary 2nd LoT, which is different in that it is imaginary.

cold things can't heat warmer things


Yeah, that's false. How about this?

no net energy can flow from a cold body to a hot body


Or this, which has the plus of not containing the word "net", which apparently sends you into a blind rage. Net. Net. Netnetnet. This is so much fun.

less energy must travel from a colder body to a warmer body than vice versa


Use your brain and read that. Now explain how in the four hells AGW would violate that.

So where we stand today wrt "greenhouse effect" is a thoughtful approach that renders "not applicable" key aspects of science, as needed, to provide an overall contradiction that can be exploited to make temperature increase (i.e. an energy increase) without any increase in energy that would violate the 1st LoT.

Thoughts?


Wait, you have thoughts? I thought you just pulled it from your behind.

Here's the GHE:

Longwave radiation from the earth's surface is absorbed by many trace gases, including water vapor and CO2. The absorption causes these gases to heat up and energy is radiated back out – both up and down. The upward radiation is effectively "no change". The downward radiation adds to the energy received from the sun and heats up the surface of the earth more than if this downward radiation did not occur.


Read that. Let the concepts contained within process. Use your head. Then respond.

If something absorbs a color of light, it also emits that same color of light. The only exception to this is by something reacting with the electron to remove its energy before it drops down to a lower energy level and emits light.

Since emissions is color dependent, this means emission cannot increase or decrease without affecting the absorption as well.

Net flow has nothing to do with it. Once an atom is excited, you cannot excite it again with that same color light. Only when the electron drops to a lower energy level can it accept a photon of that color again. This means that a substance must lose energy for it to absorb energy again.

1. Electrons are not the only quantum states. I believe that SD explained this somewhere else.
2. That "something reacting" would be nothing other than the surrounding molecules. The interesting thing about your statement is that it violates Planck's Law. According to Planck, the temperature of the body, not the wavelength of the radiation it absorbs, dictated the spectrum of light it emits.

Yes, they do - if you alter the substance of the body. Which is what we are doing when we release CO2!

So if I paint something, its emissivity won't change? We're altering the substance of the atmosphere. This has the potential to change its emissivity.

Also, emissivity can be different for different wavelengths - and shortwave and longwave radiation have different wavelengths.

Again, you are ignoring the effect of surrounding material. And lots of energy is in the form of thermal or vibrational energy AKA heat or temperature. This doesn't have the limit you describe, even if other forms do. (I'm not that knowledgeable about quantum states. I'd ask SB if I wanted to know about this. In fact, I think I will.)

The Discovery of Global Warming

You want to know how this crap is wrong, notice that it is based on a religious pretext.

The earth has millions of climates. The Church of Global Warming has created a deity, i.e. earth's "Climate" ... as in one single divine and mysterious "Climate" of the earth that high priests are still trying to understand, just like the one and only God of Christianity who moves in mysterious ways . The manufactured goddess has nothing to do with science.

The article compounds the dishonesty by inappropriately inserting the words "science," "scientific" and "scientists" just to confuse the gullible into lending unwarranted authority to the article.


It's still not science. It's still religious crap.

Don't get ahead of yourself. At that time the argument hadn't been refined any.

They just felt a surge from knowing they were totally violating the establishment! Rock on, dude!

It wasn't until years later that your church settled on the (still erroneous) outflow vs. inflow argument that you wield ... that violates Stefan-Boltzmann. It's all in the OP.

The WACKY attempts to establish select physics as "not applicable" are a relatively recent phenomenon.

That does not alter the emissivity of anything. But you bring up an interesting problem.

Since CO2 is a gas, that means it must have a surface area to emit from. What is the surface area of a gas?

True, but absorption and emission happen at the same wavelength (unless you reduce the energy of the atom before it emits).

Not false. Cold things can't heat warmer things.

Or this, which has the plus of not containing the word "net", which apparently sends you into a blind rage. Net. Net. Netnetnet. This is so much fun.

Net flow has nothing to do with it. Once an atom is excited, you cannot excite it again with that same color light. Only when the electron drops to a lower energy level can it accept a photon of that color again. This means that a substance must lose energy for it to absorb energy again.


Again, you are ignoring the effect of surrounding material. And lots of energy is in the form of thermal or vibrational energy AKA heat or temperature. This doesn't have the limit you describe, even if other forms do. (I'm not that knowledgeable about quantum states. I'd ask SB if I wanted to know about this. In fact, I think I will.)

I am not ignoring the surrounding material. You are by concentrating solely on radiation as a method of heating. If you're going to do that, the least you can do is learn quantum mechanics and Planck's law (which helped create it!).

Well, yes. I can. This doesn't violate any laws. Would you rather stand in a vacuum or in a cool room?

Two problems with this. First, the human body regulates its own temperature. Second, neither would cause me to warm (or anything else to warm).

Wait, you have thoughts? I thought you just pulled it from your behind.

Here's the GHE:

Longwave radiation from the earth's surface is absorbed by many trace gases, including water vapor and CO2. The absorption causes these gases to heat up and energy is radiated back out – both up and down. The upward radiation is effectively "no change". The downward radiation adds to the energy received from the sun and heats up the surface of the earth more than if this downward radiation did not occur.


Read that. Let the concepts contained within process. Use your head. Then respond.

Yes, both IBDaMann and I are familiar with that scriptural passage from the Church of Global Warming. It's wrong.


But HOW is it wrong? Be specific here.

Greenhouse gases reduce the effective emissivity of the Earth by absorbing and emitting IR radiation. This has been explained to you here and is also explained in textbooks on the topic. Please develop a capacity to learn.

Increasing absorption and emission increases emissivity, by definition.

You describe "greenhouse gas" as that which effectively reduces earth's temperature.

Were you educated even slightly, you would have seen this embarrassing contradiction before you would have made it. Alas, you argue that "greenhouse effect" increases earth's temperature by decreasing earth's temperature. Again, Stefan-Boltzmann addresses this topic completely.

IBdaMann, did you not notice the word "effective" in front of the word emissivity? Use your brains a little. The surface of the Earth has a high emissivity of IR radiation and therefore radiates IR easily. If, however, we surround it with gas that absorbs and emits IR radiation well, the net effect is that some of the IR radiation emitted from the surface is returned to the surface. This has the effect of reducing the Earth's emissivity when viewed from above the atmosphere (even though the actual emissivity of the surface remains unchanged).

By the way, I don't know why you're making a big deal of my nationality. It's your own American Institute of Physics whom you're disagreeing with.

I see we need to revisit the topic of "variables" vs. "constants" because you apparently still haven't grasped those concepts.

Do you program computers? Here are a few questions to ponder before we begin the lesson:

1. Can a programmer have a constant in a program?
2. Can the programmer set the constant in the program?
3. Can the programmer decide to change the constant within the program?
If the answer to question 3. is "Yes" then
- 3YES. Is it therefore not a constant because it was changed?
If the answer to 3YES is "Yes" then we have a contradiction with question 1. because a programmer apparently cannot have a constant in a program ... it can be changed.

Lies, damn lies, but no actual statistics.

The mainstay argument of 2000 was that certain atmospheric gases cause the earth to increase in temperature. Since nothing about Global Warming has anything to do with science, it took a while for word to get to the lay folk that the claim of "greenhouse gases" increasing temperature violates the 1st LoT.


That's because it doesn't. If emission decreases and incoming energy stays the same, the 1st law demands that the temperature increase (assuming no other way of storing energy).
If something absorbs a color of light, it also emits that same color of light. The only exception to this is by something reacting with the electron to remove its energy before it drops down to a lower energy level and emits light.

Since emissions is color dependent, this means emission cannot increase or decrease without affecting the absorption as well.


1. Electrons are not the only quantum states. I believe that SD explained this somewhere else.
2. That "something reacting" would be nothing other than the surrounding molecules. The interesting thing about your statement is that it violates Planck's Law. According to Planck, the temperature of the body, not the wavelength of the radiation it absorbs, dictated the spectrum of light it emits.

None of it violates Planck's law. You seem to not yet have learned about domains, even though it was explained to you.


Wait, what? You never explained a thing. I figured out some things from your cryptic clues.

How will DOMAINS save you this time?

Completely untrue. Radiation is dependent on emissivity and identity of the radiating substance.

Neither of which change.


Yes, they do - if you alter the substance of the body. Which is what we are doing when we release CO2!

That does not alter the emissivity of anything. But you bring up an interesting problem.

Since CO2 is a gas, that means it must have a surface area to emit from. What is the surface area of a gas?


Why wouldn't it change the emissivity? It's absorbing some of the outgoing light.

The effective radiating surface of the EARTH is at a point above the troposphere. I don't get the question. Gases don't have surface areas, anyway.

Since nothing about Global Warming has anything to do with science, it took a while for word to get to the lay folk that Stefan-Boltzmann renders that idea impossible because thermal radiation for any body is controlled by its temperature, i.e. temperature and emission go the same way so the only way for the earth's emissions to be reduced is for the earth's temperature to be reduced, which precludes the earth's temperature increasing.


Slowed in the sense of "emissions are decreased". Only idiots would claim that the light literally slows down. There is a fundamental difference between "slowing light" and "reducing the energy in the light". If you can't get that, go back to school.

Emission can be altered in other ways. Emissivity can change.
No. It's called a constant for a reason.


So if I paint something, its emissivity won't change? We're altering the substance of the atmosphere. This has the potential to change its emissivity.

Yes. If you paint something, you alter the emissivity and you use the new constant.


Yes! So, if we change the atmosphere, we alter the emissivity and we use the new constant.

jwoodward48 wrote:
Also, emissivity can be different for different wavelengths - and shortwave and longwave radiation have different wavelengths.

True, but absorption and emission happen at the same wavelength (unless you reduce the energy of the atom before it emits).


1. I'm talking about how CO2 is transparent to shortwave and opaque to longwave.
2. True, but in practice, intermolecular collisions quickly redistribute the energy.

An unoxidized aluminum surface has an emissivity of 0.1 - 0.2 for a wavelength of 1 μm, whereas an oxidized aluminum surface has an emissivity of 0.4 for a wavelength of 1 μm.

So what happens to the emissivity of aluminum for a wavelength of 1 μm as it oxidizes?

Clue: The opposite thing happens to the effective emissivity of a planet at 15 μm as you increase the amount of greenhouse gas in its atmosphere.

Well, there are two answers to your question:

1. Science Answer: If the interiors of equivalent cars are equivalent then their temperatures will be the same, regardless of the color of the exterior.

2. jwoodward48 Answer: The black car has a higher probability of having lighter color cars surrounding it, as opposed to the white car. Thus the black car is more likely to be "warmed" by the surrounding cooler cars' "net flow" while they are themselves cooled.

Sometimes I have to wonder. If you mean that you have some tourists who happen to speak English then that would make more sense.

Gotcha! You don't speak English over there. I never wrote that only the black hood would be hotter than the white hood. Good try though.

While we're on the subject, what really is your first language?

spot wrote: I'm not negotiating with you I'm telling you. Black cars are noticeably hotter then white cars.

Right, you still make stupid statements surrounding erroneous generalizations.

The black external paint will be hotter than the white external paint.

The equivalent interiors will remain at equivalent temperatures.

It's a hood, not a bonnet. It's a trunk, not a boot. Hey, I'm here for you if you ever need to ask someone about correct English.

Excuse me, IB and spot, but argument from "your English isn't the True English" isn't a valid argument.

IB, you are warmer wearing a black shirt than a white, right?

Oh, but it is the best argument, especially when beer is involved. Bring it on, baby!

jwoodward48 wrote: IB, you are warmer wearing a black shirt than a white, right?

Well, the black shirt in sunlight will have a higher temperature than the white shirt in sunlight, yes.

Whether I perceive myself to be "warmer" in one shirt over another involves other factors.

Wait, what? You never explained a thing. I figured out some things from your cryptic clues.

How will DOMAINS save you this time?

Domains don't 'save' anyone. Your misunderstanding of them is your problem. It still is, even after IBdaMann explained them to you (which was the same thing I was hinting at).

That does not alter the emissivity of anything. But you bring up an interesting problem.

Since CO2 is a gas, that means it must have a surface area to emit from. What is the surface area of a gas?


Why wouldn't it change the emissivity? It's absorbing some of the outgoing light.

The effective radiating surface of the EARTH is at a point above the troposphere. I don't get the question. Gases don't have surface areas, anyway.

Okay, then how does a gas radiate?

Yes! So, if we change the atmosphere, we alter the emissivity and we use the new constant.

Go right ahead. Which way is emissivity changing, due to 100ppm difference of carbon dioxide, and what is the effect?

True, but absorption and emission happen at the same wavelength (unless you reduce the energy of the atom before it emits).


1. I'm talking about how CO2 is transparent to shortwave and opaque to longwave.
2. True, but in practice, intermolecular collisions quickly redistribute the energy.

It is transparent to longwave also. Are you referring to certain frequencies in the infrared spectrum?

Assuming visible light (is what I guess you mean by 'shortwave') is absorbed, then that is the emission of whatever absorbed it. Assuming infrared (for what I assume you are calling 'longwave'), is absorbed, that that is the emission of whatever absorbed it.

(The term 'longwave' refers to frequencies in the range of 30Khz to 300Khz. The term 'shortwave' refers to frequencies in the range of 3Mhz to 30Mhz.)

I am not ignoring the surrounding material. You are by concentrating solely on radiation as a method of heating. If you're going to do that, the least you can do is learn quantum mechanics and Planck's law (which helped create it!).


No, you should learn it. The phenomenon you describe is nonexistent. (Surface could probably explain better.)

Two problems with this. First, the human body regulates its own temperature. Second, neither would cause me to warm (or anything else to warm).


1. It's an analogy.
2. Moving from cold to cool will cause you to warm.

An unoxidized aluminum surface has an emissivity of 0.1 - 0.2 for a wavelength of 1 μm, whereas an oxidized aluminum surface has an emissivity of 0.4 for a wavelength of 1 μm.

So what happens to the emissivity of aluminum for a wavelength of 1 μm as it oxidizes?

Clue: The opposite thing happens to the effective emissivity of a planet at 15 μm as you increase the amount of greenhouse gas in its atmosphere.

Emissivity Values for Metals

Edit: In reply to IBdaMann's bizarre computer programming "analogy".


It simply means the higher emissivity will absorb more readily AND emit more readily.
