Those that do get dominated by the same scientifically illiterate trolls who have driven away anyone who dares to suggest that climate CAN change. Mockery, insults, and anti scientific assertions that just go on and on and on. But the ugliest trolls must be taking the day off today. The concept of a global average climate is only useful as marketing hype. Not everyone needs to buy the exact, same products. Well, maybe in some socialist run countries. Then, it's not so much buying, but accepting the government approved products... Yeah, it's been warm out past few weeks... But hey, it's middle of the summer season. Certainly, the ice, snow, and blackouts from 8 months ago haven't been forgotten. I predict that in about 4 months, it'll be noticeable cooler... Pretty much happens every year, as summer season ends. All bad things are caused by democrats, and climate change. Why would anyone take a forestry job, when democrats will pay them well just to stay home? Use to be if you wanted food on the table, you had to work for it. For many, all the basic needs, are government paid. No incentive to sacrifice modern conveniences, to spend months in the woods, sweating and hurting. Cleansing the forest floor by fire, is just natures way making room for new growth. We are never going to completely stop wildfires, but we can reduce them quite a bit. Fire breaks and access roads reduce the spread. We can clear out a lot of deadfall, underbrush, and debris, and burn it in a controlled manner. But, burning is bad, the unholy CO2 is destroying the planet... Idiots... It's going to burn, one way, or another. Hauling all that crap out of the forest would be very expensive. And what to do with the huge volume? All that organic matter still has use and purpose in the forest. Removal would deplete the soil. Fire is necessary for a healthy forest. Unfortunately, careless humans, and sick minds start more wildfires, than are really needed. But, at least after it burns, it won't be a fire hazard again for years... Unless some on sets it off deliberately. Which, I wouldn't discount, as it's a simple enough way to 'prove' climate change, and piss people off into wanting to do something to make it stop. Even if it's a scam, and arson.

If it's a closed system, how do we get energy from the Sun? Isn't the lack of sunlight, that creates ozone holes? Okay. It's obvious the concept of thermodynamic systems need to be explained more clearly to you. The systems in question are systems in thermodynamics. Any system may be used, but the system used must be consistent. A system is defined by you. You define the boundaries of that system. Every system is closed for that reason...even the entire known Universe. In any given system, the laws of thermodynamics hold. You cannot consider any energy source or sink outside that system. They are simply ignored. If you consider the confines of your refrigerator as the system, you cannot cools your refrigerator by itself. To cool that refrigerator you need energy from outside, which cannot be considered for this system. Effectively, then, it is if the refrigerator was unplugged. Any differences in energy (or temperature) will dissipate until the energy (or temperature) is uniformly distributed. This means the refrigerator will slowly warm up until it equals the temperature around it (and fairly quickly spoiling the food). Thus, the 1st and 2nd laws are satisfied. Energy is not being created or destroyed, and entropy is increasing. Now let's consider a different system...one that includes the power plant and it's fuel, along with the distribution system to get electricity to your home. NOW and only now can you consider the power plant that is used to provide power for your refrigerator (you can plug it in!). The power plant burns the fuel or otherwise consumes energy to convert some of it to electricity (the rest goes up as waste heat). What electricity that does make to your home powers the compressor motor on the refrigerator. The refrigerator now gets cold. No energy is being created or destroyed. The 1st law is satisfied. Energy is still being dissipated (at the power plant, and as waste heat, and some that goes into powering the motor). The 2nd law is still satisfied. Entropy is increasing. These are two different systems, and they cannot be compared as if they were the same system. Now let's make the system the Earth and it's atmosphere. You cannot consider the Sun, the space surrounding Earth, or anything as far as thermodynamics is concerned with this system. You can only consider the Earth itself including it's atmosphere. There is no way to make this system warmer or colder. No energy is being created or destroyed. No magick gas has the capability to change this merely by it's presence. Thus, the 1st law is still satisfied. Energy will become evenly distributed throughout as well. Entropy will continue to increase until maximum entropy is achieved (energy is uniformly distributed). Thus, the 2nd law is still satisfied. Now let's make the system the Earth, the Sun, and the space around Earth. Now we can consider the Sun as an energy source warming the Earth through radiant heating. We can also consider the surrounding space as something the Earth dissipates energy into through radiant heating. Note the Sun only warms one side of the Earth at a time, while radiant heating FROM the Earth takes place in all directions, 24 hours a day. No energy is being created anywhere in the system. The Sun is dissipating it's energy, and some of it reaches Earth, warming it. No energy is being destroyed anywhere in the system. The Earth radiates energy away into space, cooling it. The energy absorbed equals the energy radiated. It is not possible to trap light or thermal energy. It is not possible to heat a warmer surface using a colder gas in the atmosphere. The atmosphere is primarily heated by the surface using conductive heat, but also through radiant heat (infrared light emitted from the surface and it being absorbed by gasses in the atmosphere). Like the Earth and it's surface, the atmosphere also converts thermal energy to light. This is in accordance with the Stefan-Boltzmann law. But that light cannot used to heat a warmer surface. Heat NEVER flows from cold to hot. Instead, it joins light emitted from the surface to radiate away into space, cooling the atmosphere, just like the surface is cooled. If a photon of lower energy strikes an atom or molecule of greater energy, that photon will not be absorbed. It either passes by, or is refracted, or is reflected away again. Thus, the 1st law is still satisfied. No energy is being created or destroyed. The 2nd law is also still satisfied. Energy is still being dissipated. Entropy is still increasing. The Stefan-Boltzmann law is satisfied. Thermal energy is converted to light according to the temperature of the emitting substance (to the fourth power). The Church of Global Warming insists CO2 can warm the Earth by it's mere presence. That is simply not possible. You cannot create energy out of nothing. If the system is just the Earth and it's atmosphere, that creates a perpetual motion machine of the 1st order, violating the 1st law of thermodynamics. If the system is Earth-Sun-space, the same thing applies. No gas or vapor can create energy out of nothing. The ONLY way any part of the atmosphere is warmed is by energy dissipating from the Sun. The Church of Global Warming routinely declares that CO2 can somehow trap thermal energy by blocking light from escaping Earth. Regardless of whether the system is just the Earth and it's atmosphere, or whether the system is the Earth-Sun-space system, there is no way to trap light. Once a photon is absorbed, it is DESTROYED...utterly. The photon is not trapped. IF the photon was infrared, that absorption will result in conversion to thermal energy, warming whatever absorbed it. HOWEVER... Any photon created by that substance as a result of the Stefan-Boltzmann law (conversion of thermal energy into light) will cool that substance. That photon is too weak to be absorbed by anything warmer than what emitted that photon in the first place. In other words, photons are NOT equal! This was noted by Max Planck, and he created the theory relating photons as energy being related to the frequency of that photon (known as Planck's Law). Through quantum mechanics and the application of the 2nd law of thermodynamics, it can be shown that a photon that is weaker than any substance it strikes MUST have more energy than the substance itself has, in order to be absorbed. Heat is the flow of thermal energy. It has no temperature. It is not the thermal energy itself. Like a river, the flow of the river is not the water itself, just it's movement. You MUST have two regions of different energy that are coupled together to have heat at all. Like the river again, you must have two different levels of energy (in other words height of water) and a path for it to flow (coupling) before you can have a flow in a river. Heat always flows 'downhill'. In other words, it's flow always tends to distribute thermal energy until it is uniformly distributed (everything is the same temperature). This is true for ANY given system, whether it's the Earth itself, or the Earth-Sun-space system. There is NEVER any case where energy naturally 'gathers'. Thermal energy is no different. There is NEVER any case where thermal energy gathers together from being uniformly distributed. NO magick gas can do it. Not CO2, not methane, not water vapor, NOTHING. Thus, the effect of CO2 (or any of the other so-called 'greenhouse gases') on temperature is absolutely ZERO. NADA. NAN. NULL. NOTHING.

I don't know why you expect BM to understand the seasonal cycle affecting a peach tree. He just doesn't understand that plants have no temperature sensors. They have no idea what temperature it is. If a freeze occurs during the wrong time, when plants are in a stage that they are susceptible to damage, they won't do well (obviously), but that's about it. As long as they get water and some nutrients from the soil and red and blue light, they will develop just fine (some plants are better geared for absorbing UVa light). You will never destroy the Church of Global Warming. This is a fundamentalist style religion. Not even a religiously based civil war will destroy it. Like any false religion, the best way is education. Show people the science and mathematics the Church of Global Warming routinely ignores. If you don't know it, learn it. It isn't hard. As is so eloquently spoken, "Knowledge is power.". Give people the knowledge so they have the power to reject the claptrap coming from the Church of Global Warming (and the Church of Green).

You cannot consider the Sun, the space surrounding Earth, or anything as far as thermodynamics is concerned with this system. You can only consider the Earth itself including it's atmosphere. There is no way to make this system warmer or colder. No energy is being created or destroyed. No magick gas has the capability to change this merely by it's presence. Thus, the 1st law is still satisfied. Energy will become evenly distributed throughout as well. Entropy will continue to increase until maximum entropy is achieved (energy is uniformly distributed). Thus, the 2nd law is still satisfied. Now let's make the system the Earth, the Sun, and the space around Earth. Now we can consider the Sun as an energy source warming the Earth through radiant heating. We can also consider the surrounding space as something the Earth dissipates energy into through radiant heating. Note the Sun only warms one side of the Earth at a time, while radiant heating FROM the Earth takes place in all directions, 24 hours a day. No energy is being created anywhere in the system. The Sun is dissipating it's energy, and some of it reaches Earth, warming it. No energy is being destroyed anywhere in the system. The Earth radiates energy away into space, cooling it. The energy absorbed equals the energy radiated. It is not possible to trap light or thermal energy. It is not possible to heat a warmer surface using a colder gas in the atmosphere. The atmosphere is primarily heated by the surface using conductive heat, but also through radiant heat (infrared light emitted from the surface and it being absorbed by gasses in the atmosphere). Like the Earth and it's surface, the atmosphere also converts thermal energy to light. This is in accordance with the Stefan-Boltzmann law. But that light cannot used to heat a warmer surface. Heat NEVER flows from cold to hot. Instead, it joins light emitted from the surface to radiate away into space, cooling the atmosphere, just like the surface is cooled. If a photon of lower energy strikes an atom or molecule of greater energy, that photon will not be absorbed. It either passes by, or is refracted, or is reflected away again. Thus, the 1st law is still satisfied. No energy is being created or destroyed. The 2nd law is also still satisfied. Energy is still being dissipated. Entropy is still increasing. The Stefan-Boltzmann law is satisfied. Thermal energy is converted to light according to the temperature of the emitting substance (to the fourth power). The Church of Global Warming insists CO2 can warm the Earth by it's mere presence. That is simply not possible. You cannot create energy out of nothing. If the system is just the Earth and it's atmosphere, that creates a perpetual motion machine of the 1st order, violating the 1st law of thermodynamics. If the system is Earth-Sun-space, the same thing applies. No gas or vapor can create energy out of nothing. The ONLY way any part of the atmosphere is warmed is by energy dissipating from the Sun. The Church of Global Warming routinely declares that CO2 can somehow trap thermal energy by blocking light from escaping Earth. Regardless of whether the system is just the Earth and it's atmosphere, or whether the system is the Earth-Sun-space system, there is no way to trap light. Once a photon is absorbed, it is DESTROYED...utterly. The photon is not trapped. IF the photon was infrared, that absorption will result in conversion to thermal energy, warming whatever absorbed it. HOWEVER... Any photon created by that substance as a result of the Stefan-Boltzmann law (conversion of thermal energy into light) will cool that substance. That photon is too weak to be absorbed by anything warmer than what emitted that photon in the first place. In other words, photons are NOT equal! This was noted by Max Planck, and he created the theory relating photons as energy being related to the frequency of that photon (known as Planck's Law). Through quantum mechanics and the application of the 2nd law of thermodynamics, it can be shown that a photon that is weaker than any substance it strikes MUST have more energy than the substance itself has, in order to be absorbed. Heat is the flow of thermal energy. It has no temperature. It is not the thermal energy itself. Like a river, the flow of the river is not the water itself, just it's movement. You MUST have two regions of different energy that are coupled together to have heat at all. Like the river again, you must have two different levels of energy (in other words height of water) and a path for it to flow (coupling) before you can have a flow in a river. Heat always flows 'downhill'. In other words, it's flow always tends to distribute thermal energy until it is uniformly distributed (everything is the same temperature). This is true for ANY given system, whether it's the Earth itself, or the Earth-Sun-space system. There is NEVER any case where energy naturally 'gathers'. Thermal energy is no different. There is NEVER any case where thermal energy gathers together from being uniformly distributed. NO magick gas can do it. Not CO2, not methane, not water vapor, NOTHING. Thus, the effect of CO2 (or any of the other so-called 'greenhouse gases') on temperature is absolutely ZERO. NADA. NAN. NULL. NOTHING. SIX consecutive posts of parrot poop rants. Throwing around big words like "thermodynamics" without a clue what they mean. For purposes of thermodynamics, the atmosphere is an OPEN system.

Helium is inert to chemical reaction and does not get sequestered from the atmosphere by any mechanism that brings it into soil or water or anything else at the surface. Helium simply floats away into space because the earth's atmosphere is a CLOSED system. Hydrogen is even lighter and also floats away into space. Unlike helium, hydrogen CAN be sequestered into forms that remain at the surface. Indeed, in places on earth where hydrogen is still emitted from underground, bacteria are waiting to capture it and use it as a chemical reductant. Over the earth's history, the quantity of hydrogen gas emitted to the atmosphere has been greater than today's atmosphere total pool of nitrogen and oxygen. Most of it floated off into space long ago, leaving the earth's crust in an increasingly oxidized state. A closed system cannot allow matter to exit in the manner that helium and hydrogen exit the atmosphere at the top. Far more consequential for the atmosphere NOT being a closed system is the interchange of matter at the BOTTOM, at the interface of atmosphere and land or atmosphere and sea. I'm sure that an elaborate word game will redefine the thermodynamic meaning of "closed system", so I'll get the first one started. Is the atmosphere an amphibian?

RE: debunking the glass ceiling hypothesis14-07-2023 08:46
Im a BM ★★★★☆ (1614)	Absence of helium to debunk the glass ceiling hypothesis. Many eccentric interpretations of atmospheric science can be found on this website. One of them is the theory that the earth's atmosphere is contained within an invisible, airtight glass enclosure. According to the glass ceiling hypothesis, no gas can escape the atmosphere into outer space. That hypothesis can be readily debunked by the virtual absence of any helium in the atmosphere. Particularly during the earliest 1000 million years of the Earth's 4600 million year life, a LOT of helium was being generated. Today, the supply of remaining radioactive elements in the Earth's crust is severely depleted. Only those with the longest half lives are still generating helium as they decay. Many different radionuclides emit alpha particles during their decay. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus without any electrons. Within a microsecond of colliding with just about anything, the alpha particle yanks two electrons off whatever is closest to become a full fledged helium atom. Some planets are too small to have a strong enough gravitational field to hold in ANY atmosphere. Even gases much heavier than nitrogen or oxygen cannot be held indefinitely on a small planet. The Earth has enough gravity to hold down the nitrogen and oxygen. But not enough gravity to keep the helium or hydrogen. So, the Earth has been emitting helium to the atmosphere since its inception. Yet, the concentration of helium in today's atmosphere is effectively zero ppm. Either there is not a glass ceiling that keeps in the helium. Or else some word game can explain that alpha particles are not really proto helium atoms, or radioactive decay never really emitted many alpha particles.

You don't need to 'interpret' them. Ignoring theories of science (as you do) is simply that...ignoring theories of science. Im a BM wrote: One of them is the theory that the earth's atmosphere is contained within an invisible, airtight glass enclosure. According to the glass ceiling hypothesis, no gas can escape the atmosphere into outer space. That hypothesis can be readily debunked by the virtual absence of any helium in the atmosphere. Helium is in the atmosphere. Im a BM wrote: Particularly during the earliest 1000 million years of the Earth's 4600 million year life, a LOT of helium was being generated. How do you know? Were you there the whole time measuring this? Im a BM wrote: Today, the supply of remaining radioactive elements in the Earth's crust is severely depleted. What do you mean by 'depleted'? There seems to be all the U238 isotope we need, for example. Im a BM wrote: Only those with the longest half lives are still generating helium as they decay. Only heavy particles with long half lives even emit alpha particles. There a lot of isotopes that do not emit alpha particles as they decay. Im a BM wrote: Many different radionuclides emit alpha particles during their decay. A few. Heavier isotopes. They are the only ones capable of emitting an alpha particle. Im a BM wrote: An alpha particle is a helium nucleus without any electrons. An isotope of it...yes. Helium-4 is a stable isotope. Im a BM wrote: Within a microsecond of colliding with just about anything, the alpha particle yanks two electrons off whatever is closest to become a full fledged helium atom. It doesn't need electrons to become a full fledged helium atom. You are also apparently unaware that free electrons exist in most any substance. Im a BM wrote: Some planets are too small to have a strong enough gravitational field to hold in ANY atmosphere. Even gases much heavier than nitrogen or oxygen cannot be held indefinitely on a small planet. ALL planets have an atmosphere. ALL moons have an atmosphere. That atmosphere exists as long as the planet or moon exists. Im a BM wrote: The Earth has enough gravity to hold down the nitrogen and oxygen. But not enough gravity to keep the helium or hydrogen. So now you decide to ignore Newton's law of gravitation. Im a BM wrote: So, the Earth has been emitting helium to the atmosphere since its inception. The atmosphere is not space. Im a BM wrote: Yet, the concentration of helium in today's atmosphere is effectively zero ppm. WRONG. Helium is in the atmosphere. Im a BM wrote: Either there is not a glass ceiling that keeps in the helium. Or else some word game can explain that alpha particles are not really proto helium atoms, or radioactive decay never really emitted many alpha particles. You want to play word games again? You LOVE those games! You like to start them all the time! Obviously, you are just as clueless about nuclear reactions as you are about chemical reactions.

sealover ★★★★☆ (1771)	From: The Washington Post. June 24, 2024. Fueled by climate change, extreme wildfires have doubled in 20 years. By Sarah Raza. I'm not sure that climate change actually "fuels" the wildfires, but... "A new study analyzing satellite data focused on extreme wildfires, which have severe consequences for humans and the planet." The frequency and magnitude of extreme wildfires around the globe has doubled due to climate change, according to a new study published in "Nature Ecology and Evolution" The Washington Post article provides the reference and a pretty good summary. "Climate change is making fire weather more extreme and more frequent in a lot of the world." They didn't need to tell ME that! I've lived in northern California for most of my 65 years, and the wildfires keep getting worse. Maybe they hold back global warming a little, with the dimming from wildfire smoke and aerosols blocking some sunlight. But they also release a whole lot of carbon dioxide for longer term global warming, are a respiratory health hazard, harm wildlife, and leave soils exposed to erosion and mudslides. The doubling in the rate of extreme wildfire frequency is a consequence of global warming that hits home and makes reality undeniable for many people. -------------------------------------------- "Unprecedented" Wildfires TODAY. Thanks to Global Warming. Right now, in Nebraska, Arizona, and Florida, wildfires that news reports describe as "unprecedented" are raging. What makes them "unprecedented"? Well, in Nebraska they didn't even contemplate needing firefighters to be available. They had a few volunteers, but had to call the National Guard. Nebraska never created a professional firefighting infrastructure to fight such fires because they have never seen them before. DON'T LOOK UP! This is such an important part of the vicious feedbacks to global warming, adding tons and tons of additional greenhouse gas to the atmosphere, that it deserves a thread all of its own.

GasGuzzler ★★★★★ (3056)	The key point BM (Bitch Mode?) is missing would be that ITN has no government grant money rolling in. His work, his paycheck, his family and his life depends on him being right. Whether it's explosives or aircraft, if he's wrong he's dead. Into the Night is still with us last I checked. PS. He's also a plumber, an electrician, a carpenter and a husband. This is what I call a full and meaningful life. Well done ITN.
