The Problem with 'Anthropogenic Global Warming'
americanthinker.com ^ | 10/4/2019 | Ferdinand Bardamu

Posted on 10/04/2019 11:01:35 AM PDT by rktman

The mainstream "consensus" on anthropogenic global warming (AGW) says the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) remained stable for millions of years, until the Industrial Revolution, when it went from 280 ppm in 1750 to 414.7 ppm in 2019. Environmentalists blame this on man's consumption of fossil fuels, which has increased significantly since the early 1900s.

In support of the "consensus" view, climate change researchers write: "[T]he current CO2 concentration is unprecedented over the past 3 million years[.] ... [G]lobal temperature never exceeded the preindustrial value by more than 2°C during the Quaternary" (Willeit et al., 2019). Environmentalists predict that, as anthropogenic CO2 rises, there will be more and more natural disasters, threatening the lives of millions of people around the world. These include more frequent and severe hurricanes, widespread flooding, extreme heat waves, and prolonged drought.

Belief in the dangers of AGW has led to the emergence of "climate change science," an interdisciplinary field that is very different from the natural sciences. Regular scientists rely on objective, empirical methods to test hypotheses. Climate change scientists, on the other hand, manipulate data to fit preconceived beliefs; they are trained to ignore hypotheses challenging the AGW status quo, no matter how plausible.

Stoopid deniers. The use of "Problem" sort of implies there is one. There's not despite being dared to steal some assclowns childhood and future. If "they" were more concerned with being children maybe the childhood wouldn't be at risk. Can you say kuhBOOKee? Adulting is hard. Wait as long as possible.

The computer models on which this junk science is predicated say that increases of CO2 levels will cause corresponding increases in global temps.

We know historical CO2 levels for the last 400,000 years from the Antarctic ice core data. For several years CO2 levels have been considerably higher than anything in the historical record. Hence, the hysteria about having 10 years or less left.

The problem, however, is that global temps have not increased appreciably in the last 20 years. To get the every year hotter than the last crap, NOAA has resorted to statistics tricks and differences as small at 1/100 of a degree.

The models don't work. CO2 levels do not significantly drive global temps. Indeed, the ice core data show that CO2 levels are a lagging indicator, not leading. I.E. temps drive CO2 levels, not vice versa. And now we have real time data showing unprecedented CO2 levels having almost no affect on climate.

The Green Nazis like Greta are the worse racists in the history of our world!

What does it mean to live off the grid?

It means life stops when the sun goes down. It means shutting the doors of your business at nightfall and losing out on money to support your family. It means spending up to 15 percent of your limited income on kerosene that gives off fumes that are responsible for more deaths a year than malaria, tuberculosis and HIV combined.

It means getting treated at a hospital unequipped to store medicine, power incubators or operate medical equipment.

It means not getting the education you deserve because your school lacks proper lighting, air conditioning and computers.

It means living without a sense of security and feeling disconnected from the rest of modern society.

For many of us, it’s hard to imagine a life without power when electricity is the undercurrent of nearly every aspect of our lives. Yet this is the reality for more than 1.3 billion people around the world who lack access to energy.

Excerpted. The link below has the oped:

You should consider trade marking this as your tagline.

This is BS- We were over 1000 ppm, and science is learning that deep ocean CO2 was somehow churned up and released NOT by warming- but by cyclical turnover in oceans and lakes- (There is a term for it but can’t think of it right now)

The ‘consensus’ would have the low info masses believe CO2 NEVER rose to high levels before the industrial age- yet we know for a fact that it has - all due entirely to nature!

[[NOAA has resorted to statistics tricks]]

Flat out lies is what they resorted to

Their satellite data showed no warming- so what did they do? Declare that one o their satellites was ‘out of position’ and they threw out all the readings, and INVENTED new numbers based on what they felt the temperature readings ‘should have been’

This is flat out LYING in order to support their agenda-

Please do it. Just give credit to the people who did the original work.

We need to hammer these green eco Nazis with this reality.

Bob, please put me on your ping list, when you post articles or challenge the bs posing as science.

Thanks

Awesome video to use in “discussions” with the environazis....

will do- I’ll certainly include the link too- that’s a great op ed-

I usually post in the same threads on CO2 that you do- Seen you in most of them- I used to try to fight the enviro- nazis on the left and even ran a blog years ago- but got burned out on the issue realizing the msm, schools, universities etc had saturated the world with the lie that man is causing climate change- I even wrote to Marc Morano (of climatedepot.org ) and James Inhoffe, who at that time were involved in trying ot get folks in congress to hear the truth- it however became evident in their replies, that congress had bought into the scam- both sides bought into it- and i pretty much knew then that we didn’t have significant enough voices throughout the world and here in US to fight them- Sure, we can help a few understand that it’s a trillion dollar scam- but the majority of kids and adults have been brainwashed by the left—

I still post the facts from time to time- but the left have succeeded in inventing the ‘New Truth’ according to them- Actual facts don’t matter to them- because they know the msm, schools businesses etc all support their lie no matter what facts come out and disprove their claims-

In the end times, God is going to send ‘strong delusions’ and people will believe the lies, and eschew the truth- and i firmly believe that the massive world wide lie of climate change is very likely one of those delusions- a one world government WILL exploit this scam to cripple people financially and put them at the mercy of big government- No mark of the beast? No heating oil and fuel for vehicles then- The prices of fuel will skyrocket in the name of ‘saving the planet’- and the only way people will be able to afford to drive or keep themselves warm or have electricity, is to take the mark and have the one world gov dole out rations to them-

But alas- that’s another topic-
