New computer model says human emissions can ‘render Earth ice free’

I say, bring it.

Agriculture in vast areas of Canada are opened up.

Alaska is tamed.

Antarctica becomes a viable destination.

[House Atreides]

Oh nooooooooah .... we’re all going to die!

[chiller]

BUT, BUT, BUT.....no iced tea ?

[Rodentking]

In years, or eons, gone past, when dinosaurs ruled the earth, there were tropical swamps in Northern Canada. QUESTION - What kind of cars were the dinosaurs driving and did they use Freon 12?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Oh No, I must have Ice Tea here in HOT Los Angeles.

[SparkyBass]

This human’s emissions can render a wife-free room...

[TexasFreeper2009]

I have a new computer model that shows that unless everyone starts driving SUV’s the entire earth will ice over in a new ice age!

lol

[GreyFriar]

1) how many decades would it take to burn all of those fossil fuels?

2) Do they set all of the forests, mines, oil wells that now exist on fire to do it?

3) What sort of idiot would actually do that, except for some environmental extremist who wants to destroy the world to save it?

[Skooz]

I once had a computer model where I could make my own city and then destroy it with all kinds of way cool disasters like tornados and earthquakes.

Cool game computer model.

Northwest Passage, longer growing seasons, increased biodiversity at all latitudes, wine industries begin in Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia, Siberia becomes a bread basket, Canada even more so, Greenland becomes green and habitable again, just as it was along its coasts for a brief spell during Viking times.

Asking anyone who believes in the AGW nonsense what they think the ideal planetary temperature is, and more puzzling on what they base that opinion, should shut them up and make them think. Unfortunately, they have had that ability drilled out by the Ministry of Truth and their only response is sputtering rage. Even more unfortunately these computer models are utter horse s#!+ so nothing in the first paragraph is at all likely to occur within our lifetimes.

Here is the first assumption, “ He and the paper’s other authors figured out that burning all available fossil fuels would release about 10,000 gigatons of carbon into the atmosphere, which could possibly raise the average temperature of the planet by 20 degrees Fahrenheit.

First you had to burn all mot some all fossil furls. That is some big BBQ partner. And with all that burning the temperature would rise 20 degrees.

When is the burning and when will this happen?

Junk science.

[InterceptPoint]

He and the paper’s other authors figured out that burning all available fossil fuels would release about 10,000 gigatons of carbon into the atmosphere ...

I mean really. This is science? No, it's Scare Tactics.

[Yo-Yo]

The computer program shows that the increased temperatures would melt the Antarctic ice sheet, which is bigger than the United States, has an average thickness of 6,200 feet and contains more than 50 percent of the world’s fresh water. More than half the melting could occur during the first 1,000 years, although the entire study spans 10,000 years. PISM also shows that the melting would push sea levels up by more than 160 feet. Coastlines would retreat, forcing people in places like New York City, London and Paris to move inland.

Even if true, which it is not, who knows if mankind will even have a New York or Paris in 10,000 years?

[Sicon]

And in other “news”, Unicorns can fly...

[Gil4]

Maybe if the idiots would shut up there would be fewer harmful emissions.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***Cow emissions are even worse.***

But the same amount of Bison emissions is A-OK!

[MUDDOG]

Ed Bueler, a UAF associate professor of mathematics, and GI computer programmer Constantine Khroulev, did much of that work.

Ed Bueler's day off.

[NormsRevenge]

Potsdam huh?

Used to be under a slab of ice a mile thick or more I seem to recall..

Have you adopted a starving polar bear today?

The Clinton Ice Age ? Melting down before our very eyes.

[MNJohnnie]

New computer model same as old computer model

Put garbage in in order to get the propaganda garbage out we want
