Parrot, your method of debate is to cast doubt on what your opposition says. Your points are quite often meaningless, like the thing about heat not causing evaporation, because warmer air is what causes evaporation. And then you go on to say I must think water is going to disappear when evaporation breaks down. You are a meaningless joke, lol. How did the air get warm? Was it not by heat? More heat equals warmer air. And that means more evaporation. And no, the water isn't going to disappear. It just moves around a lot. Droughts are caused by water not moving over that part of the country for a while. There is still water floating around somewhere, just not where the drought is occurring. That can happen while other regions are being inundated with rain and houses are washing out to sea. In fact, that is happening in our nation now, even as we speak/type. Why did you ban lite song? His, or her, stuff was funny, and often made good points, if you could get through the introductions. And by the way, isn't letting you be a moderator in a group that discusses Climate Change like having a fox guard the hen house? People who come here want to know the truth about Climate Change. But your job is to confuse everyone. We don't need that in here. We need to know what is going on in the world. People need to know of the danger we are facing. Instead, they come in here asking questions and find out that no one knows anything, thanks to you. But there are people that do know what's going on, Parrot. And the conclusion that I'm coming to is that you are actually a paid shill. You have sold your soul to the devil. Do you really think there are no repercussions for misleading people and causing them to make the wrong decisions about the future of our planet? You need to do a little soul searching my friend, and consider what you are doing for a living. There are other ways to make money, that don't involve hurting people. Edited on 28-07-2018 14:42 |

And this just in:
The evidence is getting hard to dispute, especially when it's pouring in from all side of us. From the same article: California isn't alone. Deadly wildfires are currently raging around the country and the world. In addition to California, the states of Colorado, Nevada, and Oregon are also grappling with their own deadly blaze, while much of the wider United States faces a record-shattering heat wave. Across the ocean, Europe is facing its own crisis — nearly 80 people have died in Greece due to wildfires. To the north, Sweden is battling fires in the Arctic Circle that are burning so brightly they can be seen from space at night. It's not really that surprising that land in the Arctic Circle is burning, since most of the regional warming has been in the Arctic and Antarctic regions. The real problem is that it's not going to get any better. This thing we face is just going to continue getting worse and worse. And it is now picking up steam. Did you know that Ostridges dont really stick their head in a hole when danger is present? So, uh, why are we? |

By not letting fires burn stands of trees become to thick diminishing the amount of undergrowth. ..Forest fires happen for a reason. Stands of trees become tinder because a lack of moisture. Same reason the grass in California burns. It's dried out, put in a pipe and then a spark ignites it when the wind blows or in California's case someone inhales.

Into the Night wrote:GreenMan wrote: Parrot, you are quite a good shill, and well versed in methods of confusion that appear to be contradictory to that of your opposition, but really agree. For example, I said heat causes evaporation. You then say warm air causes evaporation. When I point out that the air was heated to get warm, you change to another thing that causes evaporation. Yes, it does take air that is dry enough to hold moisture for evaporation to occur. But did you know that in South Georgia, the humidity in the summer stays around 98%. But believe it or not, there is still plenty of evaporation going on. But not as much as it would be in a dryer environment. By your argument, a mud puddle would never dry up in Georgia. Heat causes evaporation, along with suitable air. The transfer of thermal energy is clearly what is warming the air. And it is also what is drying the air, in reverse. When moist warm air encounters lower temperature, it condenses, forming droplets of water, which fall, drying the air they just formed in. So Heat has everything to do with the water cycle. More heat, an increase in the water cycle. And of course, heat is what causes the warm moist air to rise, so that it can cool off and make the rain that we were talking about. Calling people idiots won't make your problems go away. We may be idiots compared to you in IQ, but that doesn't mean that we are wrong. Actually, it means that you aren't as smart as you think you are. And I doubt that anyone even knows who you are, in the climate change arena. So you have no status in your church of denial. You're just a lowly shill, paid meagerly for his meager offerings of confusion. What's the matter? Not enough going on in the real world to pay your bills? The high tech machine control industry is going wide open. Seems like a man with a business of improving industrial processes should be quite busy. So there is something fishy about your story. You shouldn't even have time to hang out in here. But you spend hours at a time responding with confusion to anyone who has anything to say regarding climate change. Do you know how stupid you sound, when you challenge someone about not being able to define climate change? It's funny that you still try to maintain an intelligent aptitude for math. Even though you can add, and subtract, and even parrot a few algorithms with names, that explain things like the energy budget of our planet, you don't have the ability to put the entire meaning of those algorithms in your head. You therefore think that a warming of the planet from anything other than a change in the sun's intensity is impossible. So, I'm sorry to inform you, but your mathematical mind is of no use to anyone interested in knowing what Global Warming is, or how it is causing Climate Change. But it is good to know that you aren't a moderator in here. And yes, the apparently don't like spam in here.

With the tropopause, as the pressure drops the temperature doesn't. It's at that point, the beginning of the tropopause that pressure and heat in our atmosphere have no relationship with the other.

The rings appear because of the wavelengths of light reflected by the these rings of debris. ..And if my experiment is successful then it would show that more work is being done than previously thought possible.

If the radiation belts on the night side of the Earth release trapped solar radiation then the Van Allen radiation belts are redirecting the flow of the solar wind around the Earth. ..With Saturn, the solar radiation reaching it should be inverse square to what the Earth receives. And since it's 10 au (1 au is the earth's distance from the Sun) and we have a solar constant of about 1,360 w/m^2, Saturn's should be about 13.6 w/m^2. ..This says 15, all that means is that Saturn's distance from the Sun is a little less than 10 au.http://alternatewars.com/BBOW/Space/Solar_Constant.htm ..I'll give ya'all a chance to read this and consider it. And with me, I do think the effects of the tropopause, mesopause and the 2 radiation belts help to insulate the Earth as far as any "greenhouse" effect goes. I sent this link to a woman I know.

Poseidon already achieved important parterships, including with Liverpool City Council, in fact Liverpool is committed to become first city to go climate "positive" in 2020.

...Record levels of CO2 and CH4 are helping to save the ozone layer;Carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), and methane (CH4) are each important to climate forcing and to the levels of stratospheric ozone (see Chapter 2). In terms of the globally averaged ozone column, additional N2O leads to lower ozone levels, whereas additional CO2 and CH4 lead to higher ozone levels. Ozone depletion to date would have been greater if not for the historical increases in CO2 and CH4. The net impact on ozone recovery and future levels of stratospheric ozone thus depends on the future abundances of these gases. https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/csd/assessments/ozone/2014/summary/ch5.html ..And then there's this from the same report; The projection of CCl4 remains more uncertain than projections for other ODSs due to our incomplete understanding of the current CCl4 budget (likely a missing source; see Chapter 1). ..The experiment that I am pursuing might help to understand where the CCl4 (it destroys ozone) is coming from. Chlorine is used in laundry, water treatment, etc. and when it's exposed to the atmosphere it becomes a gas. Then the following formulas might be valid; ..CO2 + H2O > HCHO, O2 (Chapman cycle) ..HCHO + HCHO > Ch4, C (C + 4Cl > CCl4), O2 Questions like can a chlorine molecule break the 2 double covalent bonds of CO2? If so then there might be more atmospheric mixing going on in the upper troposphere than what we're aware of. Edited on 05-08-2018 19:37 |

Not a climate question, but this got the old tiny brain going a bit.... Heat always goes from hot to cold, right? The surface, which is warmed by the sun, warms the air, and the CO2 and all that BS... And as you(ITN) have said many times, that is how the surface cools itself. Ok, our body temp is 98. Why do we feel the need to cool down around 90 and above? If heat is going from hot to cold, 90 degrees should feel "rather chilly"....but it doesn't. Why not? |

GasGuzzler wrote: An excellent question, and not from a tiny brain one bit! Here's the answer: Our bodies are constantly consuming food to produce that temperature. It will continue to burn food, even if it doesn't need to produce body heat. This is necessary because the sugars we get from that food power our brain, muscles, heart, etc. So we always have to get rid of the excess thermal energy. Heat will flow from hot to cold at a rate determined by the difference between the hot and cold regions, and is affected by the coupling between those regions. This means that the greater the difference, the more heat will flow. The greater the coupling, the more heat will flow. If there isn't a great difference in temperature, less heat will flow. If coupling is reduced, less heat will flow. The body has a couple of ways to couple to the outside air. They are not 100% efficient. The first is simple convection. We are mostly water, so convection can actually take place inside us. This convective heating brings our internal temperature upward where it is conducted to the outside via our skin. Unfortunately, air is a fairly good insulator of thermal energy so this coupling is not very good. This is why we need fans on circuit boards to rid the CPU of excess heat, and why we need fans in our cars for the radiator. It's also why blankets and other insulation work by trapping air. The second is by sweat glands all along our skin. When the body is hot, these glands open and produce moisture. The evaporation of this moisture produces a fairly good coupling to outside air since the heat of evaporation is fairly high. The resulting water vapor carries it on into the atmosphere. This is great, but it only works so far. The coupling again isn't perfect. It IS good enough to allow us to survive at temperatures far greater than 98 degrees, where the air starts heating us instead. It is the heat of evaporation that makes this possible. It takes a tremendous amount of heating to get water to evaporate away. During that time, the measured temperature doesn't change. As outside temperature increases, we still need to lose all that thermal energy we are producing, but the difference in temperature is dropping. We are producing more energy than we can get rid of with the coupling available to us. We feel hot. We can only sweat so fast, and the cost is losing water from our system (we feel thirsty). If we use extra energy (by exercising or doing heavy work) under such conditions, we are burning even MORE energy to do it. The same coupling to get rid of it, however, applies. Under such conditions, we can overtax our body's ability to rid itself of this excess thermal energy and we start suffering from the effects of hyperthermia (heat stroke). Heat stroke is at greater risk if we are already thirsty. The body will shut down the sweat glands to save water enough to stay alive at some point. If we find ourselves too hot on such a day, one of the best ways to cool off fast is to simply get your arms and head wet and stand in a breeze. You will cool right off. There are a lot of blood vessels in your arms so they can help you get rid of heat (the same way a jackrabbit's ears do). The heat of evaporation does the rest for you. It's all about the heat of evaporation and the coupling available from our bodies to the surrounding air.

While I'm at it I'd like one more question, COMPLETELY unrelated to climate. I do appreciate the knowledge here. I was yacking at a family reunion (wife's side) with an lifelong appliance repair guy. We were discussing the propane powered refrigerator in the cabin on a fly in fishing trip to Canada. He didn't know how they worked. I didn't either. Got any insight ITN? By the way, he told me that A/C and Freon work by removing heat. A very interesting conversation ensued. |
