    What to do about global warming

    I'm aware. I wonder where metaphorical spaghetti fits on the list of agricultural offenders?

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    Well if you're going to be unreasonable about what can be done you might as well say you can fix the problem by getting people to eat lower on the trophic food web too. All the space you don't need for animal feed can be large enough green belts around water sheds to avoid eutrophication, and...

    I don't know or care what kind of spaghetti you use.

    Here's some more NASA data, aircraft pollution responsible for 0.03°K at the surface, and 0.06°K in the upper troposphere. That seems consistent with the IPCC data. Quantifying the Effects of Aircraft on Climate With a Model That Treats the Subg

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    I see aviation pollution. Yes I do. So what? I never ever said that carbon dioxide is the only thing that matters. I have no idea what the direct effect is, and if you actually read the IPCC stuff, you'd see that it's an active area of research. Any more lies you want to trot out now?

    What to do about global warming

    No, because you jump pages without notice. Why would a more efficient solar panel mean 500 Mt of salts added to farmland? We're not on risperidol like you are. Slow down and include context, or go out and yell at the planes crossing your skies.

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    More blah blah ignorant ranting about how science works... Except for your compelling ignorance about the use of both... Well, I found this in the AR4, Chapter 2, section 2.1, page 133: Nevertheless, LLGHGs remain the largest and most important driver of climate change, and evaluation of...

    What to do about global warming

    A company this month set a world record for solar photovoltaic efficiency, at 42.3%, which absolutely blows away the current roof-top installations which come in at about 12%. Three and a half times more energy production from the same area of collectors. For those paying attention, that could...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    If you removed carbon dioxide and trace gases entirely from the atmosphere, so that it's water vapour alone, the temperature of this planet is 268 °K, which can't support liquid water. It's a snowball. In fact the greenhouse effect of water vapour is practically non-existant at this temperature...

    Gases aren't evil...there wouldn't be any life on this planet without a greenhouse effect.

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    I believe it is fair to say that we will never completely understand all variables and interactions. In fact it's a red herring. We don't need to identify or understand all variables to be able to reach conclusions. What do you have against models anyways? The scientific method is a...

    Book burning and banning in India

    Apparently the far-right Shiv Sena party in India did not like the poor portrayal of their party in an award winning fictional novel. Their actions have lead to the banning of a book in a university, in the world's largest Democracy. Members of the student wing of the Shiv Sena party burned...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Water vapour in the atmosphere is constrained by temperature, and pressure. It will change in response to other factors changing. Orbital forcing, carbon dioxide forcing, solar forcing, albedo forcing, aerosol forcing...these forcings are not dependent on other factors changing. Well, as I said...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Dr. Kerry Emanuel, a climate scientist, one of the world's leading experts in hurricanes, and a skeptic of AGW-hurricane links, nailed this nonsense before Hal Lewis even put his pen to paper on AGW: But it turns out that there are not enough mavericks in climate science to meet the media’s and...
