James Hansen on Climate Change

[Cobalt_Kid]

Clap, clap clap, you can use google. So which one is being blamed on CO2 that is causing today's issues?

Peer reviewed by other "Climate Scientists"?

That's like all the gay Disney characters voting to decide which female Disney character has the nicest tits.

None of them are real and the tits are all drawn.

This is a ridiculous attitude, science isn't set in stone and modern planetary study is a well established branch of Physics.

As a protege of James Van Allen, one of the founders of planetary studies, James Hansen was well suited to working in the field he did, over forty years of it spent at NASA's GISS, most of it as its director.

Going by your criteria we can totally discount people like Isaac Newton who was more of an alchemist than he was a scientist, having spent more than two decades trying to create The Philosophers Stone.

You're in Cobalt...

Here you go...

I was on point on that one... peer reviewed... and let's not forget approved by the rest club. Stick to the script and you're in.

Being published is the end all be all of the scientific ego being stroked by peers. I've seen first borns figuratively sold off, families, relationships and sanity destroyed by the obsession of being published.

The guise of climate science and climate science peers is a massive scam driven by ego and bias.

I prefer this.

And Hansen was taught by this guy.

Who pretty much ran his own space program on a shoe string for years building satellites and making multiple launches and discovering things like the Van Allen radiation belts.

Radiation eh? What is the first first line of defense against solar radiation? What happens when that first line of derfense falls to second leaving the ionosphere naked to solar radiation?

Ego!

Science is built on review by peers, if you have a problem with its results then stop using its products.

If you post here again using technology that is totally reliant on the complex theories built up over decades and centuries through the collaboration of scientists through the peer review system then we can assume you're Ok with it I think.

I refuse to buy the products of fictional peers.

Define Climate Scientist.

How can something that doesn't exist have peers?

The magnetosphere followed by the atmosphere.

When large amounts of ions are dumped into the atmosphere they produce the effects we call the Auroras, mostly around the poles, where the field lines emerge and descend into the Earth's surface.

How is the magnetosphere doing these days? Rock solid?

It's a general description of professionals from many different scientific disciplines.

List of climate scientists - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And yes, they really do exist and so does their work, if you want to disappear down some intellectual rabbit hole of your own invention then please be my guest.

It's a magnetic field, it's not rock anything.

It is becoming weaker, possibly as part of field shift, and that still doesn't remove the factor of higher concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere forcing the climate into a new state.

How can they be peers if they are from different disciplines?

Would you go to a proctologist if you have a toothache?

Do we live in a jar?

Can the magnetosphere shift drag jetstreams and ocean currents along for the ride?

They all speak sciencese.

It is possible for scientists to communicate across disciplines, most take more than the courses required to understand their field of interest, and many have multiple degrees in overlapping areas.

Don't know, ask a scientist, they really do exist.

 

[darkbeaver]

To settle the question why not emit tens of times what we do now for three years in a row and see what happens.

 

[petros]

Don't know, ask a scientist, they really do exist.

Climate scientists don't.

BTW, which one was voted to have the nicest tits? Who did you vote for?

 

[darkbeaver]

Why not mount an expedition to correct our bad magnetic bearing.

One would think. However when scientists object to the folly GW one of the first things asked...

"Are they Climate Scientists?"

 

[Cobalt_Kid]

Better yet.....can CO2 absorb heat?

Eeyup,

How do we know more CO2 is causing warming?

An enhanced greenhouse effect from CO2 has been confirmed by multiple lines of empirical evidence. Satellite measurements of infrared spectra over the past 40 years observe less energy escaping to space at the wavelengths associated with CO2. Surface measurements find more downward infrared radiation warming the planet's surface. This provides a direct, empirical causal link between CO2 and global warming.

Papers on laboratory measurements of CO2 absorption properties

Climate scientists don't.

I posted a list of climate scientists, email one of them or join a science forum where you can learn the facts around the issue... if you really want to.
