Greenhouse Gas and Warming04-02-2020 17:55 | |

A statistical analysis shows that greenhouse gasses have been the dominant (but not entire) cause of global temperature increase for about a hundred years. Before then too little greenhouse gas was emitted to cause an effect. Full discussion at https://alanpeg.wordpress.com/2020/01/ AL R. |

Great! Please post the link directly to the valid data that supports this conclusion and please post here on this board the section of the analysis that discusses the methodology used on the valid dataset. .

From 1880 to 1910, the global average temperature was lowering. The US dropped 2 atomic bombs on Aug. 6, 1945. This graph shows warming reversed after this. And until the 1980's, surface testing of atomic and thermonuclear bombs continued and no warming. Sadly no one in here will understand the physics behind this. They discuss "general idea's". If there were satellites during this time frame then we'd better understand whether or not atomic or nuclear weapons could influence the atmosphere in this way. The last atmospheric test took place on Oct. 16, 1980 https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/22/world/asia/north-korea-atmospheric-nuclear-test-risks.html Attached image: ![]() Edited on 04-02-2020 18:12 |

What "global temperature data"? Fourth, you reference "annual greenhouse emissions". First, answer #1. Then, describe precisely how you have determined how much "greenhouse gases" are being emitted. Fifth, you reference "137 years". Why 137 years as opposed to any other number of years? Sixth, you reference "other causes of warming". What other causes of warming? How do you know that the Earth is warming? ... and that's just the questions that I have from your first three sentences, let alone the rest of your post. Tackle those first, then I'll get into the rest of your post... I also dismiss NASA and your other sources. They are merely making up numbers. It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth, as we do not have anywhere near enough thermometers to do so. Also, I saw no statistical analysis, no valid dataset, nor any discussion about the methodology behind that "data" (made up numbers). You're gonna have to do much better than that with me.

Those questions not being unique to alanpeg I'll help you out: 1 gfm7175 wrote:Water vapor, CO2, methane and other green house gases absorb infrared radiance while allowing visible light to pass through (you cannot see CO2 because visible light passes right through it, but when Tyndall first discovered CO2 was a greenhouse gas he could not get infra red radiance, from a boiling kettle, to pass through it.). Here's an amateur attempt at an explanation of the whole system: do-i-have-the-co2-calamity-math-right But in short greenhouse gases allow visible light from the sun to pass through while absorbing some of the infrared radiance that comes up off of the ground/water level of Earth. This results in more thermal energy being present in the atmosphere above ground and a higher temperature at ground level. If you believe that violates a law of physics you'll have to make that case.

You are making a circular argument, or an argument of faith. You simply accept that an ice age occurred as a belief. But you don't know. You can't prove it. Neither can you prove it never existed.

I hope you don't suddenly contradict yourself in your next statement. tmiddles wrote: But to conclude that there was an ice age (not as we have been taught but at all) seems beyond reasonable doubt to me. You say this with all the certainty of someone who has some rational basis for his conclusion, i.e. some theory of how majority portions of opposing hemispheres probably became buried under ice at the same time. Pray tell! What statistically probable occurrence might cause such a phenomenon? Please remember that the earth is very slowly drifting away from the sun; it is not getting any closer. The earth always had more solar radiation than it does today. More, not less. So, I'm interested in your theory that makes at least one ice age "beyond reasonable doubt" ... because I can doubt with the best of them. . I don't think i can [define it].

IBdaMann wrote:There are two sides to this: Evidence it happened, A theory/explanation as to why it would happen Before either of those, for myself and most people, we trust (have faith) that the scientific community is being honest with us. That admission goes without saying I think. As for evidence it happened is in the scraping bull dozer markings left by glaciers, sediments: http://isgs.illinois.edu/outreach/geology-resources/evidence-glaciation ![]() Now it's an explanation for evidence. We know woolly mammoth were woolly. ![]() Another indicator of temperature is that plants will grow succesfully. As for why this would happen I believe that going theory is only due to changes in the Earth's orbit / Milankovitch cycles. I hadn't heard before that we were drifting away from the sun. Why is that? |

Some clarification:tmiddles wrote:1 Ad Hominem, definition: Personal attack on poster Only when the personal attack is the argument, if you will. It is not an ad hominem if I merely embellish a valid argument with say, allusions to your simian ancestry. For example, if I were to call you stupid ... for believing that greenhouse gases can increase earth's temperature while decreasing its radiance in violation of Stefan-Boltzmann ... I am making a valid argument, irrespective of any additional color commentary. The term ad hominem means "to the man" and means that the argument itself is ad hominem. This typically means that if you strip away the ad hominem that you have a void argument (#22). tmiddles wrote: 2 Feigning Ignorance or False Pretense of Nonunderstanding If I were making the list, I would have as #2 "Attempt to Lay a Trap" or "Constructing a Gotcha! Fallacy" ... and it would have two sub-categories: 2a. Feigning Ignorance and 2b. (what is currently #6) Feigning Partnership or Offer to Work Together or Insincere Desire to Work Through the Math. One of my distinguishing characteristics is that I normally recognize these right away but I love 'em ... I love the challenge ... bring it on, baby, bring it on. My thoughts are typically that if someone wants to go toe-to-toe with me then I'm good with it. However most other people, normal people, sane people, find these tactics to be incredibly insulting wastes of time. tmiddles wrote:3 Proselytizing Condescension or Missionary Insolence. definition: ? This tactic is fueled by the presumption, mistaken or otherwise, that one's position is morally or ethically superior and peppers the argument with attempts to shame someone else out of his current position. On another site I actually end up using this one quite heavily myself ... because the topic is abortion and I typically go for the jugular in explainnig how people who support the killing of living humans who have committed no crime and who have not expressed any desire to die ... are utterly immoral by any society's definition (you should ask Harvey; he waded into that discussion pretty heavily himself). My arguments can't help but carry proselytizing condescension since my argument is one of people being immoral. My favorite example, however, of Global Warming proselytizing condescension is this classic: ![]() tmiddles wrote: 4 False Source definition: ? (False Authority or a Fraudulent website) You did ask about this previously but I'm going to let Into the Night clarify ... because there are actually three that I think he might mean. tmiddles wrote:7 Claiming Victory Fallacy or Pretending Someone has Conceded Defeat Nope. This is an admission of defeat that refuses to admit defeat. On the other site I mentioned, twice this past week people who had backed themselves into a corner (one regarding impeachment witnesses) just abruptly announced that I had conceded his point and tried to wiggle out of the conversation. When Into the Night and I were posting on Topix, there was a dishonest bonehead Subduction Zone who, after having yet another one of his egregious violations of physics clearly explained to him, would promptly mention in his next post that both of us had conceded his point ... even if only one of us was discussing the matter with him. I suppose that he was trying to preemptively declare both our concessions ... and he would keep bringing up the matter of our supposed concessions that we never made. That is why that point is on the list. Subduction Zone. Point #6 as well. These items being on the list indicate to me that they were getting on Into the Night's nerves a bit (it got on mine too). tmiddles wrote: Yes, but a little more general. Redefining the rules of logic so that your conclusion is necessarily the "logical outcome." Unfortunately I don't remember specific examples but I do remember saying "No, it means the exact opposite" a lot. Basically if your conclusion doesn't follow, just claim that it does and that it "follows basic logic." Into the Night will be right there to respond "Deleted 8." tmiddles wrote:11 Complexity Cop-out Nope. It's the claim that certain support for the argument is too complex to be provided/covered on a message board ... so obviously it is therefore not required. Imagine a Christian who claims that God does something that you find to be contradictory ... so you ask how that can be. The Christian says that it cannot be explained to humans because God is beyond our comprehension. Imagine IBDaMann asks a warmizombie for the Climate model. The warmizombie responds "It's way too big to fit on the Climate-Debate servers, sorry!" ... or ... "That kind of thing needs to reside on a supercomputer mainframe and those don't grant public access, sorry!" Imagine a warmizombie explaining how the secret to Global Warming creating additional energy can only be understood by tracking every single photon ... and he doesn't have the time right now to show you. .

Tmid, I think you might be trying to create order out of chaos with these lists and definitions. Kind of like trying to manage the middle eastern countries and various factions with military might. |
