I've gotta stop radiating toward those warm walls and radiate *only* toward the dry ice!" Rather smart snowman. ~ No brains needed, not even that of a snowman! He may radiate towards the warm walls, but the walls won't absorb it. You can't heat a warmer object with a colder one. Both the snowman and his block of dry ice will absorb radiance from the walls. VernerHornung wrote: tmiddles wrote: Yikes, I thought up till I read that it was the other way around. But I guess that wouldn't make sense since the CO2 presumably came from increased growth? My guess is it was outgassed from the oceans as they warmed up. The temperature of the oceans of Earth are unknown. It is not possible to measure it. VernerHornung wrote: Cold water dissolves more CO2 than warm water does, which is why they serve beer and soda pap cold, to delay having your beverage go flat on you. WRONG. You are forgetting English beer, dude. Ocean water is not saturated with CO2, so saturation levels are not relevant. The reason we serve beer cold in the U.S. (and in Germany) is because it is bottom fermented. English beer is top fermented, and drinks better warm (some consider it an acquired taste). Soda is often better cold, but a warm Coke does not have less CO2 in it. VernerHornung wrote: When the glaciers first melted, the water they put into the oceans was chilly and free of dissolved CO2 to boot (because water doesn't retain gases or salts when it freezes). Whut? Didn't you say earlier that ice cores contain a record of past CO2? VernerHornung wrote: This delayed having CO2 show up in the air. Guess what? The ice didn't cover the entire Earth during the last ice age...at least there's no indication of it! VernerHornung wrote: Plant growth just cycles CO2, I think. Plants absorb CO2 while growing, and release it when they die and decay. Nope. Plant growth destroys CO2. It is converted into carbohydrates. VernerHornung wrote: End of the Ice Age is believed to have occurred when the Earth's axis became more tilted. (It "nods" a bit over thousands of years.) This exposed the North Pole to more sun during summers, melting snow and ice, uncovering the darker bare ground to absorb heat. Once the CO2 did go up, it helped maintain the interglacial period. No gas or vapor has the capability to warm the Earth using IR from the Earth's surface. * You can't create energy out of nothing. VernerHornung wrote: tmiddles wrote: Just not going to work with the news cycle. Industrial CO2 could be a problem because there's so much of it. I assume you mean man-made CO2. How much? Please show all sources. VernerHornung wrote: But planets don't heat up in time for CNN. ...or for Al Gore, or for the Church of Global Warming. Is it warming up at all? VernerHornung wrote: Just think how long it takes your turkey to thaw, and imagine it a whole world. The world isn't frozen. Conveniently ignoring latent heat? VernerHornung wrote: An Earth 2˚C warmer with seas about a foot higher around 2100 is a realistic projection, I don't believe your Holy Entrails. VernerHornung wrote: and undesirable. No? Why would 3.5 degF make any difference to anywhere? Where is all this water coming from? Are you suggesting that the Great Flood of Noah actually happened? VernerHornung wrote: People have more ability to adapt than environmentalists assume, however; for those groups *any* change at all equals catastrophe—from Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, where the birds were gonna fall from the sky, up to now with climate change. Rachel Carson in particular was a disaster monger. She even went so far as to remove needed calcium from the bird's diets to get their eggs to weaken. In other words, she faked it all. VernerHornung wrote: We ditched DDT to solve our bird woes, And caused thousands, possibly millions of deaths as a result of the mosquito populations DDT was so effective against. Fortunately, some nations still use DDT and ignore the U.S. panic about the stuff. VernerHornung wrote: put the caps on our Freon cans to close the ozone hole, The hole didn't close. It's still there. It's over the poles, not the industrial nations where these cans were being used. Ozone and freon don't chemically react. You can put them both in a tank and nothing happens. Freon is also like propane. It's heavier than air. VernerHornung wrote: and we'll kick or moderate our carbon habit to fix climate change. Define 'climate change'. VernerHornung wrote: Dow and Du Pont weren't grinning when best-sellers were taken off the shelf, DuPont WANTED the stuff off the shelf! They were losing the patents on R-12. They could no longer be renewed. DuPont fabricated the whole ozone story to destroy the R-12 market so they could market R134a. They even got the government to pass laws prohibiting the use of R-12 to maintain their monopoly on it. In other words, graft. VernerHornung wrote: but they're still in business. That they are.

Fantastic! So in each video a single thermometer is used, including uses on living things, to determine a temperature. So you acknowledge a temperature being determined in this way?
