global warming

Physicist, Professor Happer points out carbon dioxide is an important trace gas and an integral part of the carbon cycle, a bio-geo-chemical cycle in which carbon is exchanged between the oceans, soil, rocks and the biosphere. Virtually all of life on the plant requires CO2 concentrations to be above 150 parts per million. The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere over the past 500 million years has been as high as 4,000 ppm and as low as 180 ppm.

Half the people on Earth live in warmer climates - the blue circle on the map below. So do most corals, marine life, plants, trees, insects, birds, and animals. A little warming in colder regions of the planet is beneficial. These warmer regions have lived more peacefully for thousands of years than people in the colder regions. Humanity must not be forced to take the climate alarmist pronouncements of European and North Americans, their royalty, politicians, behind the scenes manipulators, and bankers.

Imagine a large room with perfectly insulating walls. The room contains chairs, tables, books, sheets of paper, pitchers and glasses of water, some flowering plants, and so forth. Now comes the question:

“If we add some heat (say 1 MJ) to the room, how much does the temperature rise?”

“If we add a certain heat flux (say 1 W/m2) all over the surface of the earth, how much would the temperature rise? So many assumptions are involved that the calculated temperature rise can be pretty much anything. Start programming your supercomputer!

Now turn that unanswerable question around and ask an answerable question: “If the temperature of the surface rises by (say) 1ºC, how much more IR does it emit?”

The total warming effect of all of the greenhouse gases is 324 W m-2. Thus, CO2 is (8.67/324) = 2.7% of the total. The other greenhouse gases, except for water vapour, account for 0.7%. Therefore, water vapour accounts for (100 – 3.4) ≈ 96% of global warming.

The results of these two independent scientific methods agree and show conclusively that CO2 is a very small part of global warming, and that whatever controls the level of water vapour in the atmosphere controls atmospheric temperature.

By the time solar energy reaches Earth’s surface it is spread very thin – even midday sunshine will not boil the billy or make toast. And solar collectors will only convert about 20% of that weak energy into electricity. Thus thousands of solar panels are needed to collect significant energy, and lots more to charge the expensive batteries needed to maintain electricity supply overnight and during cloudy weather. Despite these disadvantages, force-feeding of “green” energy by all levels of government has given Australia nearly three million solar collectors (mainly imported from China).

The earth's climate has been changing for the past 4.5 billion years. Several catastrophic events have caused life-threatening climates and extinctions.

Activist movements have used children through the ages. Greta Thunberg being the latest. "Our house is on fire!"

The modern climatic optimum is making the ecosystem great again!

Si les explosions sur les gazoducs russes Nord Stream, sont les prémices d’une nouvelle géopolitique de l’énergie, la solution pour la sécurité et la sûreté énergétiques est de produire notre propre énergie conventionnelle.

China and Russia are great War historians of WWI and WWII, and know that the countries that controls the minerals, crude oil, and natural gas, controls the world! Biden has done a great job of relinquishing “CONTROL” for the “green” materials to China, and relinquishing “CONTROL” of the crude oil to OPEC and Russia! God help America!

We can look forward to more oscillating energy signals from Biden, as he has no backup plan for a replacement for the products manufactured from oil. The efforts to cease the use of crude oil could be the greatest threat to civilization, not climate change. Attaining a decarbonized world like the one that existed in the 1800’s and before, would result in billions of fatalities for 8 billion on earth from disease, malnutrition, and weather-related deaths.

The earth is indeed maintained at a higher temperature than it would otherwise be, all due to the atmosphere. So how does the atmosphere do that?  Answer: It has very little to do with CO2, and little (but more) to do with water vapour.  During daylight hours, the sun warms the earth.  99.9% (not just 99.0%) of the atmosphere is nearly completely transparent to incoming radiation, but the earth's surfaces absorb a lot of that energy and some parts of it more so than others. This explains why black pavement is so much hotter during hot summer days than is the lighter colored sidewalk right beside the pavement.  It is also why we feel cooler in the shade when the temperature of the atmosphere is the same in or out of the shade. Why? Because the vast portion of the atmosphere can't absorb incoming radiation from the sun, but human beings can.

The assumption stated and implied in the question is that human-made CO2 has increased global CO2, and this increased CO2 and the greenhouse effect (GHE) continue to increase global temperatures. But, as discussed below, this new fantasy of carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) can become a global economic disaster even if it works. So, let us examine the relevant science, facts, and historical records and see where they lead us.

There's another deception here. People have been led to believe that CO2 remains in the atmosphere for a long time and keeps increasing and accumulating. But that is not the case as more atmospheric CO2 becomes available, plants and phytoplankton gobble it faster, allowing plants to grow bigger, faster, and more plentiful. This is demonstrated by the fact that the earth has been greening like crazy and arid regions are decreasing.

Turbine proves more trouble than it was ever worth. After a decade of dashed financial hopes, mechanical failures and punishingly costly repairs, the school has been left to lick its wounds and lament. The experience to date has been a total financial failure. And now comes the whopping cleanup bill to have the nightmare removed, for good.

1. Since the 1920’s, trends in extreme weather events show neither higher frequency nor higher severity.

2. The average global temperature over the last 100+ years has risen by only 0.9 degrees centigrade.

3. The oceans are not rising any faster than they have been for at least the last 300 years

4. Whatever the capacity for CO2 to trap heat, that impact diminishes on a logarithmic scale, because the infrared wavelengths (heat) that CO2 absorbs is essentially at saturation levels already.

5. The world consumes about 100 million barrels of crude each and every day, and this consumption has been steadily rising since we first discovered it and learned how to use it.

6. Water vapour is not only a far better absorber of infrared (heat) but it is generally present at atmospheric concentrations several magnitudes higher than that of CO2 at typical summer temperatures.

7. The only ‘indication’ of future catastrophic temperatures are the results of computer models.

The idea that mankind could control the climate with a trace gas, carbon dioxide ("CO2"), was very intriguing and something that farmers could only hope for in their wildest dreams. Regretfully, my investigation failed to discover any scientific evidence to support the man-made global warming hypothesis. It appears that CO2-induced, climate change exists solely in the mythical, computer world of fatally flawed climate models. It is a childish delusion!
