All molecules absorb kinetic heat energy and then re-release it... It is like these morons think that CO2 absorbs heat at every angle to the molecule and then releases it back straight back downward.... if this were the case you could build an awesomely efficient solar collection device made out of a clear glass column filled with CO2 and with a heat collector at the bottom of it...
Not to mention the fact water vapor which is variable in percent of the atmosphere: per wiki The percentage water vapor in surface air varies from .01% at -42℃ (-44℉)[23] to 4.24% when the dew point is 30℃ (86℉). So with water vapour percentage swinging all over the place even if it is 1/10th the greenhouse gas of CO2 should prove to be catastrophic according to AGW modeling people... And they ignored the "city effect", you have these cities built with large expanses of concrete and asphalt absorbing heat during the day and releasing it at night in giant columns of rising warm air over cities and urban areas, that has GOT to affect the Jet Stream FAR more than a fractional increase in CO2..
The human world stands about midway between the infinitesimal and the immense. The size of our planet is near the geometric mean of the size of the known universe and the size of the atom. The mass of a human being is the geometric mean of the mass of the earth and the mass of a proton. A person contains about 1028 atoms, more atoms than there are stars in the universe…(snip) In our 150 pounds of protoplasm, in our three pounds of brain, there may be more operational organization than there is in the whole of the Andromeda Galaxy. The number of associations possible among our 10 billion neurons, and hence the number of thoughts humans can think, may exceed the number of atoms in the universe…

...and something is statistically impossible if the odds of it happening are greater than 1 in 10 to the 50th power.
I wonder if he’ll mention the Axis of Evil anomaly.

I’m very much pro science, but this guy is a knucklehead, which is what Carl Sagan became in his later years after abusing pot.
Sheldon Cooper was right to hate him for his role in demoting Pluto.
The Warmers also talk as if a CO2 molecule can absorb unlimited amounts of heat. It’s pure nonsense and Tyson should be ashamed of himself for going along with the worst junk science ever produced. He’s a sham!
I got through about 10 minutes of one espisode. It was actually pretty good and factual. It was explaining the changes in ice shelves over thousands and thousands of years.
But then, alas, the left wing BS came out saying “but now we face the problem of using fossil fuels...” CLICK.
Changed the station.
Isn’t most of the atmosphere on Venus methane gas, sulphuric acid, etc?
Braga had a casting couch for young men.
I think it's a little more complex than that. I think the message is that, "when the ETs reveal themselves and speak of God, don't believe them."
Which of course is interesting enough as a message.
But what really intrigues me is - why do they feel so compelled to signal their spin right now?
LOL
Sulfuric Acid and whatnot the outer atmosphere of venus is hightly reflective
wonderful, thank you.
“Cosmos” epitomizes the state of the modern scientific community.
- Very light on actual science
- Very dense on propaganda and indoctrination.
It’s what happens when you surrender your soul for a political agenda.
