What does 'Carbon-Pricing' mean?15-05-2019 03:53
HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-zSlhWk3-w This short video clip sums it up pretty good, and a lot of what Climatology is all about. This how they educate young people about the carbon-cult, in a fun and interesting way. The 'scientist', a well know celebrity quickly goes through the details, the presents a 'graphic' demonstration of the principals. Apparently, a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, from about 50 years ago, qualifies you as a climate scientist. Maybe he was given an honorary degree in Climate Science, because he was a TV star... Was sort of wondering about the use of 'average', and what that really means. Since he claims a 4-8 degree increase be the end of the century. Seems to me, that average, could, in reality, be experienced in several different ways, and still give the same numbers. It could be basically the same temperature, most of the time, with some really hot periods occasionally. It could be spread more or less evenly. Could be just general, nice, warm weather, all year long, instead of brutal winters. Probably a dozen different ways to view what average could actually mean, over such a long time span.

dehammer ★★★☆☆ (480)	The only thing that is required to be "qualified" as a climate scientist is a willingness to push the mmcc bullshit. As far as average, the poles will go up a few degrees, the equator will remain the same and everything else would go up a whopping .5 to .8 degrees. Disastrous, right? The reality is not one of their models can be accurate because none of them can explain why Antarctica and the Himalayans had ice on them more than 35 million years ago. We KNOW from actual science that the continent was covered by an ice sheet 40 million years ago but that is not possible if co2 is the cause of the warming.

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	I just thought it funny, that a man who spent half his life, educating kids about science,on TV, would be used by the warmists, to educate the world. The use of profanities, something you'd never, added a lot of shock value, to a presentation obviously lacking content.

dehammer ★★★☆☆ (480)	By using the word "know" to express a belief Either you do not believe in any science at all, or you have to accept that there is science that doesn't not fit your belief. I know its hard to believe that the earth actually is not flat, but there are poles. Believe it or not, the earth is more than 5000 years old. In 1988 they attempted to drill to the bottom of the glacial deposits surrounding Antarctica, and could only go back though 40 million years of deposits before the ice chased them off. They did not find the bottom

You are not even talking about an average here. dehammer wrote: Disastrous, right? None noted anywhere due to either 'global warming' or 'climate change'. Sure, we have tornadoes, hurricanes, bone chilling winters, deserts, tropical jungle, continents mostly covered with ice all the time, 7/10ths of the Earth is flooded, etc. Weather disasters are a normal part of weather. Neither 'global warming' nor 'climate change' mean anything...literally. They are just meaningless buzzwords. So is the concept of a 'global climate'. dehammer wrote: The reality is not one of their models can be accurate because none of them can explain why Antarctica and the Himalayans had ice on them more than 35 million years ago.

As always, it doesn't matter what degree someone has (or doesn't have). Science has nothing to do with degrees, licenses, consensus, or bad math. Science is simply the theories themselves. They must be falsifiable. They cannot conflict with one another. They must be theories (i.e. valid arguments). Averages is not statistical math. While statistical math does make use of the simple average, the simple average itself is quite meaningless. Statistical math requires the calculation of the margin of error value for any summary. This is why we cannot measure the temperature of the Earth. We don't have anywhere near enough thermometers. Variance sources must be declared and justified. These help to calculate the margin of error value. I use a variance of 20 deg F per mile, since this variance is not unusual to observe, especially across weather fronts. The data to be summarized must be selected by randN (using the same method of randomization as a deck of cards). This means you cannot use 'cooked' data. The data source must be raw data. Biasing elements must be eliminated (for temperature, things like time and location grouping are biasing elements). Statistical math is incapable of prediction normally inherent in mathematics. This is because of its use of random numbers. This means you cannot use the summary to 'cook' data for the next summary, which is completely independent of the first one. It also means that the result of any summary does not predict the future in any way. Attempting to do so is a base rate fallacy as well as a math error. The data is not the summary. The summary is not data. Treating one as the other is a redefinition fallacy (data <-> statistical summary).

You and I, and to a certain extent gfm knows the answer to the satellite story. Let's see if the Church of Global Warming members (particularly Wake) remember it.

Especially where there is changing terrain (for several reasons). 20 deg F / mile sounds fair. The interesting thing about elevation is that there is a standard used for ambient air temperature drop with altitude. The mistake people make with this is that they are using the standard as data. Temperatures may not fall as fast with altitude as the standard, and can even form low level inversion layers, where temperature increases with altitude. It can also drop faster than the standard, leading to unstable air and thunderstorms. These are real temperatures at different altitudes, not some declared standard.
