Because the ice is melting. NASA says CO2 has such an effect at very high altitude. But we're emitting it at low altitude.
what... come on...are you going to support that bullshit with some sort of logic. are we not in a system that warms and cools independent of mans activities? what we are trying to determine is what the effect is from adding more to a very complex and dynamic system. finally... just for starters are you saying co2 emitted at low altitude only stays at low altitude and has no effect at high altitude. That would be a very interesting paper. I think you need to read some of the recent papers which show / surmise that as we add more co2 at low altitude it has geometrically less effect because the first layer causes most of the warmth trapping. Finally it is also shown or surmised that adding additional layers of co2 allows for the transmission heat up the atmosphere and into space. I am not endorsing any of these papers as right or wrong... because we do not really know. My point is that science does not have the data or the models which can tell us what adding more co2 is doing right now. If you are the agw nutter liars on this site or anywhere else had any science showing man made co2 was warming in this earths atmospher... they would present a link... to what would clearly be the noble prize winner. I will let you know I have searched for it... the very best arguments... present... a few "facts" about co2 d tell you to jump to a conclusion. That is not even a science theory... it may be a hypothesis.
Global Temperature Standstill May Last 30 Years, Climate Scientist Predicts: Prof. Anastasios Tsonis at the University of WisconsinâMilwaukee,: âI would assume something like another 15 years of leveling off or coolingâ ...Since 1997, there has been no significant increase in global average surface temperature, and some areas â notably the Northern Hemisphere â have actually cooled.... http://www.climatedepot.com/2013/10...would-assume-something-like-another-15-years/
The ice is melting, that's a fact, and it's occurring "in spite of" the unprecedented amount of "cooling" CO2 we're emitting.
So I point out how your understanding of the description of the term "thermostat" was lacking and how the use of it is not a good analogy and this is how you respond. Wow. Not only do you have little comprehension, but you are also unable to admit any fault or admit when someone else does have better comprehension. Of course you don't want better comprehension. You just want stuff to bolster your absurd desperate argument, whether it is true or not. And/or your ego so fragile that you can admit no modesty.
Well if there is a lot of ice melting and the earth hasn't warmed in fifteen years, then a scientist would have to conclude that it had nothing to do with global warming. I meant an honest scientist that wasn't just trying to get a piece of the 22 billion dollars a year the taxpayer is throwing away on this research.
Total and absolute bullshit. As in just fucking plain old wrong. You are either an idiot or a liar. I'm going with the latter. You are putting ideology before science jerm. If we start doing that we are all fucked.
