I don't think many of the people understand it's a scam, just work on the pieces they are assigned. It's sort of outside their individual field, and just believe the boss understands it. The people in marketing don't have to understand it, believe in it, or even like it, they just have to figure out ways to sell the product. Politicians just need to know how they can get votes, and campaign money out of it. Wonder if Trump can deduct the border wall money, from our UN tribute payment, since we aren't interested in climate change research, why fund it... |

Given the preponderance here of opinion that rejects climate concerns I may regret posting here, but... On the content of the opening post I would say that not caring about global warming - when decades of science based expert advice says it is imperative that we do - is a worse kind of moral failing than the necessary hypocrisy of using the products of fossil fuels as a functional member of the society we belong to, whilst advocating for the kinds of institutional change that an orderly, economy-wide shift to low to below zero emissions requires. Zloppino, I can't see that emissions purity of those of us who are concerned about climate change is valid as a must-have requirement to be taken seriously. Seriously, would that kind of emissions purity really move you when you will not take (as a possible example) the US National Academy of Sciences and UK Royal Society seriously on global warming? To support and promote the very activities that make such a serious problem worse - whilst opposing and obstructing the legitimate efforts of others to prevent it getting worse - is much worse in my opinion than working within the society we belong to and using the democratic processes available to us to call on our governments and other societal institutions to deal with a problem much bigger than what the consumer choices of those who care can deal with. |

when decades of science based expert advice says it is imperative that we doHere is the problem. REAL science experts say it isn't man made. It mostly if not entirely natural. If you want to know what the real experts say, read science specific peer review journals, not the non specific journals that allow anyone to review any article no matter how little their expertise overlaps with the writer. For instance, in nature, you could have a physicist write an article on tree rings and have it reviewed by an oceanographer simply by both of them claiming to be climate scientist. A well known example of this fakery is Michael Mann's claim that the MWP and LIA were both only seen in the north Atlantic area. His article was reviewed and supported by someone that expertise was in ice cores. No one said a thing about the fact that graph failed to follow the first procedure of the anti fraud standard scientific procedures laid down by centuries of scientist and their predecessors. You never change what you are measuring or the method of measurement in the middle of a test or graph. In his graph he did both. In the early part of his graph, he used proxies (tree rings) that can only tell you the climate of the times. Any expert will tell you that the rings will tell you the result of over a dozen different things that affect the trees. Michael Mann insist it can tell you the temperature accurately. Then about 1950 he CHANGED to using instruments. These are very accurate and will give you ONLY the temperature. No one at the magazines complained about this. In fact they stated it was just fine. They argue that it is more than possible to do what he said it will. Not one of them is an expert in the field that reads tree rings. The claims of consensus is just as bogus. If you read the actual report, they will tell you that it isn't really a consensus of ALL scientist, only a fraction of them. Even that is bogus if you read the report. |

Science supports this. It's warming twice as fast across the middle latitudes of the northern hemisphere than it is in the southern hemisphere. And at the same time the Arctic is warming twice as fast as the middle northern hemisphere latitudes. Warming around the plane t isn't consistent except that the further north one goes the more it is warming. Warming in Africa was associated in real time with ozone depletion over Antarctica and yet those scientists had to say it was CO2 even though when the temperatures rose CO2 levels didn't. There was the Medieval Warming period and then the Little Ice Age and now this current warming period. Some people in here, about all of them really do not accept that our climate changes. And if Natural Climate Variation is responsible then in about 100 to 200 years it'll be cooling again. That's when real problems would probably happen because Canada and Russia would become much colder just as much of Europe and the US would cool as well. What is interesting is that about 60% of greenhouse gases is water vapor. And that is what hydrogen fuel cells would be putting into the atmosphere. That would actually increase the warming of our atmosphere. If you look at graphs like this one that shows temperature and CO2 levels, https://images.app.goo.gl/x6UN6hyimTR73P6d9 during World War II global temperatures spiked and then no warming for the next 30 years. Before World War II, 1910 - 1945 what caused the same rise in temperature which is the same as after 1978? It's the same temperature rise but not the same increase in CO2 levels. What does parallel warming is ozone depletion. It's possible that the increased solar radiation admitted into our atmosphere has created a feedback mechanism in the form of melting glaciers and tectonic plate lift in the northern latitudes as a result. If so then the cause for the current warming is already being dealt with which gets into a discussion of the stratospheric ozone layer. With CO2, I think it's actually a few scientists who have made the issue politically correct. Since you live in Australia, you might consider this article; Ozone loss warmed southern Africa https://www.nature.com/news/ozone-loss-warmed-southern-africa-1.13938 Edited on 12-05-2019 04:17 |

It's all purely political, should have been obvious when Al Gore stepped to help sell the hysteria. The IPCC does a shady job of objectively using the data, studies and projects the cite. It's blatantly one-side, even though they cite papers that barely mention 'Climate Change'. Mostly it looks like the search the internet for catchy titles, or anything that might further the cause. Even though the paper's author wasn't studying Climate Change, the project really had nothing to do with, or maybe they added a sentence or two in the conclusion, not so serious, but hey, maybe they could get a few more research bucks. Over 80% of the planet surface is H2O, also a good portion of the atmosphere, and a good supply underground. H2O does all kinds important thing for the planet, and I seriously doubt that anything on Earth is going change any of it. H2O is the planet's thermostat, it make sure it never gets too hot, or too cold. Might get stuck briefly, when some catastrophic event happens, but it straightens out after a while. A one or two degree of warming, over centuries is even noticeable? Most of those years, we didn't have the instruments (thermometer) or the interest in measuring or recording temperature. The temperature change they keep harping about, is tiny. The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is tiny (0.04%). There is no reason anyone would have notice or even cared. Both readings change constantly, that tiny percentage, would usually get ignore, as margin of error, or insignificant. The conclusion that man-made CO2, was causing catastrophic global warming, was drawn, long before any tests or research. Not exactly science, since the outcome was already predetermined, nothing else would be accepted. The planet has been doing just fine at supporting life, long before mankind started burning anything. We never had to do anything in the past, except adapt to the existing climates, or move toward places we liked better. Nothing has really change, the climate always has changed. If you don't want to move, figure out how to adapt, or dig a 6 foot deep hole, spare someone else the bother. |

I was wondering the other day, whether the IPCC propaganda machine is employing some of the same techniques the terrorist use to radicalize muslims. They both have seem to have a knack for pulling young people in. And those young people are willing to do anything to further their cause. Both groups, if they took a minute, to think about what they are asked to do, should think it's such a great idea. Both seem willing to kill off all non-believers, even if it means dying themselves. That 'Green New Deal' should never have made it to the House floor, any sane person wouldn't have taken such a proposal seriously. Surprisingly, a lot of the democrats seem to think it great idea. We aren't even the number one, planetary-poluter, so even if we spared no expense, it would accomplish nothing on a global scale, except disrupt global economy. I'm surprised we can float on a 20 trillion dollar debt, what would happen at over 100 trillion, if we could actually go that far? It should seem fairly obvious that to take the sort of action being push globally, in short time allowed, it's going to cost a considerable amount of money, and every industrial country must doing it at the same time. High demand for the materials and equipment, will drive prices higher as well. It's crazy to think so many people believe the global warming crowd know what the climate is doing, but have know clue what their plan will do to the people. The proposed cure, is a catastrophe, the crisis predicted might not happen for over a hundred years, and a couple of degrees warmer, isn't that bad. |

Ken Fabian wrote:Zloppino wrote: The Nazi minister of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels said, "If you tell people lies often enough they will believe it." Indeed, THIS is the basis of Global Warming. Scientific Basis? Let is assume that the models that they are using are correct and that we are due for a lot of heating. Then why have we not had it? You can go to Dr. Roy Spencer's site. He was originally the manager of the Satellite Weather Satellite Program and finally quit when he didn't want to remain silent about NASA releasing data that was not true. He has a site, http://www.drroyspencer.com/latest-global-temperatures/ that presently shows no warming at all using the weather satellite data from 1978 to present. He is using a 13 month running average that shows the normal chaotic weather patterns. Climate, on the other hand, is much longer term. If we use a 15 year running average it shows a falling temperature. Presently there is really strongly supported suspicion that NASA who has been lying about the ground based temperature records are now manipulating the satellite records as well. As for NASA lying - you can watch Tony Heller videos on Bing. YouTube has been censoring him for no reason that I can detect. All he is doing is showing newspapers from the supposed areas we are told are record hot areas that show temperatures totally opposite from NASA's reports. NASA's manipulations of the temperature records have reached the stage at which a LOT of scientists are quitting NASA. Let us say that you want to assume that there really is global warming because the models say so. Well, Lord Monckton, who is a mathematician has shown inarguably that the models being used are using models with almost 50 times the actual climate sensitivity - that is, even IF all of the other things in the models were true and using NASA's temperature records to start with, that the climate will hardly change at all. I designed gas and liquid chromatographs so I know spectrometry. I can tell you without any question at all that CO2 has NO EFFECT on atmospheric temperatures. There is insufficient energy on the Earth's surface in the specific wavelengths at which CO2 absorbs and so that entire amount is absorbed at very small values. Adding more CO2 cannot absorb energy that does not exist. You HAVE been lied to - Turn on the TV and they show a dead grey whale. Story? That because of global warming there is less food for whales to eat. So these whales are starving to death. Indeed they are but not for reasons of global warming - the numbers of whales now have multiplied out of sight. The whale watching tours used to cross their fingers that they would find whales for the tourists to see. Now there is absolutely no question that they will find whales. Grey whales, Humpbacks, even Blue whales - the largest mammals on the Earth. The huge number are sweeping these moderate temperature areas of the oceans free of Krill - the food of these types of whales. The whales normally mate and calve around the areas of Mexico and then migrate to the polar oceans where Krill is especially heavy in the colder waters to fatten and grow their calves to adulthood. In between those areas the conditions are not very good for production of Krill and hence the numbers of whales are so large that the weak or old or young without their mothers, may not survive. And that is indeed what is happening. They are all somewhat weakened from insufficient food but about half of them, being tired on the migration, stop in San Francisco bay and about half of them that are discovered dead have been hit by ships. There is absolutely nothing that the environmentalists will not turn to "proof" of climate change. And taken over extreme long terms there IS climate change. But Man has no effect on it or so little as to be almost comical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change#/media/File:Vostok_Petit_data.svg The blue line is the important piece of data. It shows the cyclic climate. This data is from Ice Cores gotten by both Russian and American scientists in Antarctica, Siberia and Alaska. The final section appears to be holding when that is not the case. These ice sheets are constructed of areas that are too cold for rain or snow and hence the majority of the ice is constructed of frost freezing out of the air. So it requires centuries for a large enough frost to build on the snowpack to crush down into actual ice. When this happens this final peak will appear slightly wider and lower than the previous one. And the CO2 line is NOT reliable. CO2 moves freely in H2O and hence that is why the levels of CO2 more or less matches the CO2 that presently occurs. So please do not use the Goebbels lie of "all of the scientific data" because there actually is none at all. |

People like to dream... But life is work, there are responsibilities, never enough time to do the things you want. If you don't work, you don't have the money to buy, or do what you want. Some people try to take the easy route, and take on debt, which they know they can never repay, likely don't care, who is going to make them, least they can have fun while it lasts. Socialism is a lot like that, it offers people free everything, little responsibility, and time to do whatever you want. But it fails, because somebody has to pay the bills, and people need to do some work. Ever get stuck with a freeloader for a while? It gets expensive quick, and you have less time to do anything you want to do, no money to do it anyway. Use to be that being in debt, or on public assistance, were bad things, and most folks avoided it like a disease, hoped to get out from under it as quick as they could. Now days, debt and welfare are a right, something to be proud of, something to take maximum advantage of, with out consideration of any consequences, as there are none. You can pretty much take a free ride through life, on someone else's dime, and it seems like no big deal, not hurting any one person, or really anybody they can see. |

Ah, the pseudonymous experts who know better than the people who study climate! What a load of confused rubbish about what "real science" is. Looking to experts and appealing to authority is exactly the correct thing for those who are not experts themselves. Presuming the experts are wrong until you yourself are entirely convinced is entirely incorrect; it becomes a means to presume anything you don't understand, can't understand and don't want to understand is wrong - which just makes you wrong. It is basic common sense that people who make a career out of studying something will know more about it than you do. Taking the conclusions of decades of top level science based expert reports and studies seriously is not a religious act - just a normal, reasonable trust in the methods and institutions of science. Taking it seriously is not a politically extremist act either - this issue is not innately about capitalism or communism or globalism or nanny-statism. No world governments is required to accept it and nations entering into agreements with other nations, knowingly, for mutual benefit doesn't require giving up sovereignty - I know a lot of people concerned about global warming and none are proposing global government. No Marxism is required to act effectively to reduce GHG driven climate change - I believe the principle solutions will come (are coming) from innovative entrepreneurs who will be selling their technology free market style around the world. But I can see why opponents of climate responsibility being a real thing want people who lean right to think otherwise; wouldn't want people who lean right to know that there is no requirement to turn socialist to face up to the climate problem, no world government agenda needed, no end to responsible free enterprise. Or for those leaning right to understand that appropriate and effective policy is entirely compatible with free markets, democracy and the rule of law. The emissions and climate change problem is foremost about responsibility and accountability for the externalised consequences and costs of dumping CO2 in the atmosphere - and we now make more CO2 than any other substance, way more than any other kind of waste, more than concrete or steel, more than concrete and steel. The only commodity I know of that we make more of is rock aggregate, ie crushed and graded rock - and that doesn't leave us with more rock than we began with. Knowing the consequences of that CO2 dumping and other human activities on our climate system has been a long running (and previously non-partisan objective) within science agencies like the US National Science Council - because basic understandings of the absorption, emission and transmission of IR through atmospheric gases has long known of the significance of CO2 to global temperature. Such efforts coalesced in the 1980's and showed us clearly why we don't need to worry about imminent ice ages - but exactly knowing why global cooling from aerosol pollution is not a serious issue turned out not nearly so reassuring as people hoped! Ignoring the consistent science based expert advice is dangerously irresponsible. But, hey, keep the conspiracy and incompetence rhetoric coming - people are better informed than ever, trust our long running science institutions more than you realise; your preferred misunderstandings and their apathy are no longer enough to convince them mainstream science is wrong. Views like I see here just let people see who the ignorant and irresponsible extremists really are. |
