duncan61 ★★★★★ (2021)	"I genuinely have the fear that climate change is going to kill me and all my family, I'm not even kidding it's all I have thought about for the last 9 months every second of the day. It's making my sick to my stomach, I'm not eating or sleeping and I'm getting panic attacks daily.

If the physics is true in a lab it will also be true outside of the lab. The "saturation" that you're talking about is included in the simple fact that it takes a doubling of CO2 to increase the temperature by a fixed amount. This means going from 100 ppm to 200 ppm has the same effect as going from 400 ppm as 800 ppm. You need to add more and more CO2 to get the same result. duncan61 wrote: Nice theory but it does not work in reality and fortunately more organisations are getting more vocal on shutting down this lunacy which is actually scaring dumb people that do not have the ability to see the truth.The average temperature of the Earth can not be measured and I have just researched the Satellites that are supposed to be able to do this and 1 they can not and 2 the one that is claimed to be able to do it was launched in 2004 so not that long ago.The actual on ground temp records have been convieniently fudged and even then it shows things were warmer in 1930 The average temperature of earth is indeed difficult to measure. It may be so difficult that it is in fact impossible. We can only hope to approximate it as good as we can. In fact, any "real" measurement will only ever be an approximation of some kind of true value. When you measure the length of a stick with a measuring tape, you don't know the "true" value down to the single atom. You approximate it to an accuracy that is sufficient for your purpose. When it comes to the average temperature, we don't even care so much about the exact value but rather about how the value changes over time. So if we used the same method and the same instruments to measure the same thing for a long period, we will still see whether the measurement results trend upwards or downwards or stay steady. (Of course this won't stop us from trying to determine the average temperature as accurately as we can anyway) Again, reality is unfortunately extremely complex. So instruments don't necessarily respond perfectly linearly across the whole measurement range, measurement stations may break and have to be removed or replaced, the environment around stations may change, causing heat island effects to change over time, new instruments may have a systematically lower or higher reading than older instruments and so on. So you have to be really, really, really careful about interpreting the data and you have to make all sorts of corrections to ensure that you're not measuring the wrong thing. Making those corrections isn't "fudging the data". It's actually being careful and doing good science. If you know that your measurement has a systematic error and you don't correct for it, that's when you're actually doing shoddy science. To give you an example, in the past we used to measure water temperature of the oceans by throwing a bucket over board, lifting it back up and sticking a thermometer in the water. Depending on how well or poorly you do this, the water might warm up ever so slightly while you bring the bucket back up. You have to account for this. But it gets worse. Eventually, as technology progressed and we weren't mostly traveling the oceans by sailboat anymore, we started measuring the temperature in the intake of the cooling water for the engines. This is convenient but because engines run hot, measuring near the engine room causes a systematic overestimation of the temperature. So if you didn't account for this, you'd find that around the time when we switched from buckets to engines, the temperature of the oceans jumped by a few degrees. That is of course nonsense. The "raw" datasets aren't compatible. So what can we do if we want to look at long-term trends anyway? Is all hope lost? Do we just throw our hands in the air and give up? Of course not. To fix this you have to determine how large the overestimation of the new temperature measurement is compared to the old temperature measurements and then adjust the datasets accordingly to get one continuous dataset. Now a lot of people seem to think that AGW is just a hoax for achieving political goals. And I will not deny that there are certainly a lot of players, especially in politics and the media, who do wish to personally profit from this. However, that doesn't mean that the science is wrong, it just means that politics sucks and the media suck. If you think it's all just a political conspiracy, let me ask you this: Who is conspiring against who? Scientific agencies and institutes from all around the world are in agreement that AGW is real. It doesn't matter if you ask scientists from China, Russia, the US, Europe, South America... So if scientists from many different nations with entirely different (geo)political goals are agreeing then who is conspiring against who and for what purpose? What about the scientists themselves? Do they have a vested interest in faking global warming? Why would they? You might say that their funding depends on it but then again, who was paying climate scientists before global warming became a big concern? Are the scientists just doing it for the fame and attention? I can assure you, if you could scientifically disprove global warming, you'd be famous over night. See, the scientific consensus didn't happen just fall from the sky. 100 years ago most scientists actually didn't believe that greenhouse gases could cause global warming. However, more and more careful experiments, better instruments and a better understanding of physics showed that they were wrong and over time that's how we got the overwhelming consensus that we have now. If anyone has a vested interest in being dishonest about AGW, I'd say it's the opponents of AGW. Fossil fuel industries for example are fearing for their profits and a lot of AGW denial is funded by them. We know for example for a fact that exxon mobil knew already in the 80s about global warming due to CO2. Their own researchers had concluded it's true. Yet the company decided to spend millions upon millions on lobbying to prevent legislation that would cut into their profits. Edited on 10-05-2020 16:03

Because there is no way to explain the following: A human body loses ~700 watts from radiance alone: Stefan-Boltzmann equation:___P(out)=σeA*(T1^4) (5.67×10−8J/s⋅m2⋅K4)(0.97)(1.50m2)306K^4=-723W Metabolism of a normal diet is +100 watts. So +624 watts come from where? IBD is never going to answer this because he cannot. According to his description of energy transfer, this would be impossible.

You fall into your own trap, somewhat. Earth is big. Just because there is more ice somewhere doesn't mean that there is more ice everywhere. And just because there is more ice now than there was last year doesn't mean that over the long term ice isn't becoming less. Regarding the temperature of the ice, the ice melts at the surface, not in the centre. If you take a cube of ice from your freezer it may very well be -10°C or so. The surface starts melting and turns into water. The centre is still -10°C. If there's warmer water or warmer air around the ice or if the sun shines on the ice, the surface can still melt even if deeper layer of ice are still way below 0°C. Edited on 10-05-2020 16:37

The extent to which you don't even know what words to use to formulate your questions is painful. The "validity" of science? Do you even know what you are asking? Of course the laws of physics do not change depending upon who is measuring. However only the person taking the measurements can tell you whether he measured at the top of the meniscus or at the bottom, whether he put the device on setting A or setting B, whether he rounded up or rounded down or whether he truncated, to clarify details of the alternate method he used, etc... These kinds of questions can only be answered by the person performing the measurements and this was made clear to you ... yet you insisted on pulling a tmiddles and injecting some stupid notion about the laws of physics somehow changing based on the person taking the measurements.

I certainly don't understand the science like you guys do, so I'm COMPLETELY guessing here when I say that if the sun is ACTUALLY heating the earth, then you'll need more output from the sun to increase the surface temperature....don't you think so JackFou? Not necessarily. You'd have to either increase the influx of energy or attenuate the outflux of energy. Greenhouse gases do the latter. Not possible. You are ignoring the 2nd law of thermodynamics, the 1st law of thermodynamics, and the Stefan-Boltzmann law. * you can't reduce entropy in any system. * you can't create energy out of nothing.

It is not radiant heating from gasoline in the tank that runs the engine. JackFou wrote: Let's say you have an engine running at a certain load and rpm. After you start the engine, it will heat up until it eventually reaches an equilibrium temperature at which the rate of energy influx and energy dissipation into the environment are the same. Now what happens if you stop the flow of cooling water to the engine without changing the load and rpm? Right, the engine gets hotter. False equivalence. The Earth is not liquid cooled. It has no Magick Blanket around it. It does not use conductive heating to be cooled, like a liquid cooled internal combustion engine. JackFou wrote: But you haven't increased the rate of energy input into the system, so how is this possible? You have removed conductive heating, but are still converting the same chemical energy to thermal in the engine. The Earth is not cooled by conductive heating. JackFou wrote: Did we transfer heat from the cooling water back to the engine? Did the colder cooling water warm the hotter engine? Obviously not. By stopping the circulation you've simply reduced the capacity of the engine to cool itself. The engine does not cool itself at all. JackFou wrote: Therefore, the engine has to respond by increasing its temperature, thereby radiating more heat per unit of time to the environment until influx and outflux are again in balance. Nope. The engine will quit. It will then cool to ambient temperature. You cannot trap thermal energy. Mantra 20a2...20g... JackFou wrote: Now IBD and ITN being predictable as always will probably chime in and say that I'm confused about conductive/convective and radiative heat transfer and that those are not the same. You are treating them the same here. Which is it, dude? Mantras 20a2...20s...20g... JackFou wrote: They are of course not the same but for the result it doesn't matter whether I consider conductive or radiative cooling. We would still get the same behaviour in a vacuum. All that matters is the rate of energy influx vs the rate of energy outflux. Whether the energy flows out through radiation or conduction makes no difference to this fundamental fact. You could do an equivalent thought experiment for radiative heat transfer if you wanted. It does matter. Mantras 20g. JackFou wrote: It's not very easy to come up with a good analogy for radiative heat transfer to visualize it because classical macroscopic behaviour doesn't reflect quantum mechanic behaviour on the microscopic scale very well but I'll try. Let's say you stand on a tennis court and there's a machine firing 100 tennis balls at you per minute. If you do nothing, the balls just accumulate on your side of the court and we don't want that. What we want is equilibrium, meaning the same amount of balls are leaving your half of the court per minute as are coming in. So you need to hit 100 balls per minute across the net and out of your half of the court to reach a steady equilibrium. That was easy, right? ...deleted remaining false equivalence fallacy.... Tennis balls being fired at you is not radiant heat or an example of radiant heat. JackFou wrote: Now if I wanted to really stretch this analogy, I could say that in order to reach the new equilibrium you need to work harder than before and you'll get warmer as a result. To bring this back to the system "earth", "you" are now a patch of surface area, the tennis ball machine is the sun, no longer firing tennis balls but energy (joules) in the form of photons and "I" am a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. The sun sends a certain amount of energy per unit of time towards the surface of the earth. Let's say for the sake of argument that for a certain patch of the surface of the earth that's 100 joules of incoming energy per second. Without greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the patch of surface area would just have to radiate energy back up towards space at a power of 100 J/s to maintain energy balance. The temperature of this equilibrium state can be calculated from the Stefan-Boltzmann law. If I now introduce greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, they absorb (infrared) radiation at specific wavelengths. The energy they absorb isn't lost of course (conservation of energy and all). Some of it is converted into heat through collisions with other molecules in the atmosphere while some of it is send out again as radiation. Now the molecules don't have a sense of direction, they don't know up from down. They send the radiation equally in all directions meaning some of it goes up towards space, some of it goes back down towards earth. No atom or molecule will absorb a photon of less energy than the atom or molecule already has. There is no frequency term in the Stefan-Boltzmann law. Radiance does not depend on the substance radiating. Mantras 20a2...20q...20b1...20b5...20b3... JackFou wrote: So now we have an imbalance in the energy flux just like we had an imbalance in tennis ball flux before. If the greenhouse gases let half of the radiation through and send half of it back down to earth, the result will be that the surface of the earth now has to radiate at 200 J/s to maintain equilibrium with the 100 J/s from the sun and 100 J/s being sent back from the greenhouse gases, just like you had to increase your rate of hitting tennis balls to 200 per minute. According to Stefan-Boltzmann increased radiative power corresponds to a higher temperature. False conclusion. Mantras 20a2...20q...20b1...20b5...20b3...29... JackFou wrote: Of course reality is a lot more complicated and delicate than that Mantras 10d...11... JackFou wrote: because greenhouse gases don't absorb all wavelengths of radiation and because an increase in temperature of a black/grey body actually changes the energy distribution across different wavelengths of its blackbody radiation and so on and we could go on until the end of time trying to make the math as complicated as possible by adding all the tiny little intricacies. But the general idea remains the same. Mantras 10d...11...20b1...20b3...20b5...

This means going from 100 ppm to 200 ppm has the same effect as going from 400 ppm as 800 ppm. You need to add more and more CO2 to get the same result.

Depending on how well or poorly you do this, the water might warm up ever so slightly while you bring the bucket back up. You have to account for this. Actually, no you don't. Water has a high thermal index. It's temperature is not going to change significantly for this purpose in the time it takes to measure it this way. JackFou wrote: But it gets worse. Eventually, as technology progressed and we weren't mostly traveling the oceans by sailboat anymore, we started measuring the temperature in the intake of the cooling water for the engines. This is convenient but because engines run hot, measuring near the engine room causes a systematic overestimation of the temperature. So if you didn't account for this, you'd find that around the time when we switched from buckets to engines, the temperature of the oceans jumped by a few degrees. That is of course nonsense. The "raw" datasets aren't compatible. Ocean water temperature is not measuring the induction temperature of the water. If it did, the induction temperature is pretty accurate, except for friction effects (the engine is no factor at all). JackFou wrote: So what can we do if we want to look at long-term trends anyway?

I specifically covered this: Oh no! I've been warned! How frightening! So how is it possible then? The metal (or pretty much whatever object you chose to aim your laser at) heats up properly, you can measure it with a thermometer so clearly there's thermal energy being added continuously. But the laser only emits light of a specific wavelength. Since your understanding of temperature is sadly limited to "measure of average thermal energy" of an object, we're forced to conclude two things: a) A device at room temperature can heat up another object to several hundred degrees and higher. Yet I can comfortably touch the device with my hand the whole time. b) Any object that can be heated with a laser keeps absorbing more and more photons of the same wavelengths. This is proof beyond doubt that atoms can in fact absorb photons of an energy less than what the atom already has. So if it's not the photons from the laser being absorbed and converted into thermal energy, where does the thermal energy come from? How can a laser continue to add thermal energy to any object if it only emits photons of less energy than the atoms already have? Must be awful to be so scientifically illiterate that something as simple as a laser flies in the face of everything you claim to be true. Now of course lasers don't actually violate any laws of thermodynamics (but then again, neither does the greenhouse gas effect).

I can literally pull a random person off the street and they'll be able to tell me. If you don't know what it means, you can look it up in a dictionary. "Fossil fuels" have their name for historic reasons. "Fossil" is an adjective in this case, not a noun. You look like two 4th-graders who have just learned that fossil fuels aren't actually made from fossilized dinosaurs and now they have to tell everyone about it. Insisting that fossil fuels aren't actually made from fossils doesn't make you look smart, it makes you look pretty dumb. Are you guys training to be a duo? Edited on 11-05-2020 11:56

Hydrocarbons seep upward from where they are created and they require great heat and pressure to form. That rules out your stupid theory. The impermeable rock is what prevents the hydrocarbons from seeping upward any further, causing them to accumulate in a "well." How can this be a result of previously living organisms? JackFou wrote: Pretty much everyone knows what the word "fossil fuels" refers to. If you are telling me that the world is full of mistaken people blissfully unaware of their operating misconceptions ... and that you are one of them ... sure, I agree. So, how do you explain hydrocarbons beneath impermeable rock far below the fossil record and what fossils do you believe burn? Insisting that fossils burn doesn't help you fool people into believing that you are an actual scientist, especially when you don't even know how hydrocarbons get into the ground. . Attached image:

If you insist on bringing up more counter examples to your own theory, feel free but for now I'm still waiting to hear from you how you think a laser heats any material if no atom can absorb photons of an energy less than what the atom already has. IBdaMann wrote: JackFou wrote: b) Any object that can be heated with a laser keeps absorbing more and more photons of the same wavelengths. This is proof beyond doubt that atoms can in fact absorb photons of an energy less than what the atom already has. Nope ... and the kicker is that you still feel compelled to use the word "proof." Too funny. The laser emits only one wavelength of light. The substrate keeps absorbing more and more energy. You can measure this as a temperature increase. Ergo more and more energy is continuously added to the atoms by means of photons of the same energy. You claim that this is impossible. You're denying what you can easily observe with your own eyes. IBdaMann wrote: JackFou wrote: So if it's not the photons from the laser being absorbed and converted into thermal energy, where does the thermal energy come from?

You are merely implying that you are scientifically illiterate on blackbody science ... which we already knew ... which is why you aren't really fooling anyone into believing that you are actually a scientist. Radiance of the surface goes up therefore temperature goes up. This is exactly what the Stefan-Boltzmann law dictates. You're trying to twist the Stefan-Boltzmann law by conflating the radiance of the surface with the radiance of the upper atmosphere.

The impermeable rock is what prevents the hydrocarbons from seeping upward any further, causing them to accumulate in a "well." How can this be a result of previously living organisms? You've kind of answered your own question. They're buried as deep as they are because they couldn't drift upwards any further. Also if you've ever seen a coal mine, you'd know that a lot of coal isn't buried terribly deep. Some of it can be dug up with surface mining techniques. We've definitely found fossils deeper than that. There are almost certainly lots of fossils still buried way deeper. The fossil record doesn't have a specific depth. But since fossils are not easy to locate, paleontologists don't generally blindly dig holes kilometres deep hoping to find something. Therefore, the known fossil record is biased towards shallower depths. Now neither paleontology nor geology are subjects that particularly interest me but a quick search reveals the following: Fossils go from a few thousand years ago all they way to billions of years ago and the depth at which you'll find them can vary from a few meters to kilometres. Coal, gas and oil on the other hand are around 200-300+ million years old and have all been found at shallower depths than the deepest fossils we've found. So your claims don't quite add up, I'm afraid. I'm sure you'll dispute all of these numbers. In which case, feel free to show your radioiosotpe dating results that disprove all those claims. But now I'm really curious to hear what you think where those hydrocarbon fuels come from. Did god put them there?

You're the one who's apparently unaware of the difference between adjectives and nouns and what a dictionary is and how it works, so I wouldn't get too cocky.

How do you believe hydrocarbons get into the ground in the first place ... Mr. Genius? The hydrocarbons got in the ground when organic matter (aka formerly living organisms) got sedimented. 'Organic chemistry' is the chemistry of carbon related only to life processes. Carbon itself is an element. It is not organic. Hydrocarbons are a compound. They are not organic. We can and do synthesize both oil and natural gas from inorganic compounds. All you need is carbon dioxide (or carbon monoxide), hydrogen, heat, and pressure, in the presence of an iron catalyst...all conditions found naturally within the Earth. Coal is primarily carbon.
