Good link. I liked this article particularly from that collection: http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/news/story.html?id=25526754-e53a-4899-84af-5d9089a5dcb6 "According to the ice-core samples, CO2 levels vary little over time," Dr. Jaworowski sates. "The ice core data from the Taylor Dome in Antarctica shows almost no change in the level of atmospheric CO2 over the last 7,000 to 8,000 years -- it varied between 260 parts per million and 264 parts per million." Futurecurrents isn't here to actually try to argue for AGW, he just wants a little platform where he can hurl a few insults. What real believer would install air-conditioners for a living? He would be run out of any gathering of AGW disciples as a hypocrite.
"In breaking climate news, a leak shows that the IPCC's upcoming report allows that the Sun may well be warming the planet, their models suck, they were wrong about enhanced severe weather, and they double-dipped in the guacamole" http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/12/...changing-admission-of-enhanced-solar-forcing/
And yet not one the deniers including the brilliant 377 can answer this basic question. It's like all they want to do is make an end-run around the simple logic. "Given that CO2 has gone up about 35% over the last 150 years from the burning of fossil fuels and we know CO2 is a dominant greenhouse gas, how could it be that temps should NOT go up?" (If you're going to argue the CO2 is not from man then you are simply ignoring facts.)
As everyone has told you for days... The increase in CO2 has nothing to do with man-made CO2. The amount of man-made CO2 is miniscule compared to the naturally generated CO2 each year on earth. There is also the fact from a long term perspective that CO2 increases lag temperature increases by 800 years. CO2 increases are not a leading factor.
Yeah I'm going to say he has. He never answered me directly so I'm putting in his mouth. If he wants to contest that and the basic irrefutable science that says it is (certainly irrefutable by any of us) then he can do so. Of course now he will pretend to be so brilliant as to believe he can question the science that has been accepted for over 100 years.
So I see you have simply chosen to ignore the facts. Oh well. Let me repeat. Science says there is no doubt that the surplus CO2 in the atmosphere is from the burning of fossil fuels via isotope analysis and simple math. The levels jumped 35% when we started burning FFs. There is simply no question about it. It is A FACT. DO FACTS MATTER TO YOU AT ALL? So I ask again. How can temps not rise?
Cut the crap. Everybody knows warming has occurred in the past. Now unless you are suggesting man caused all the episodes of warming in the past, then you know it's not something man can explicitly control. So why get your panties in a wad over the inevitable? The logical solution (if you think warming is a problem) is not attempting to control it, but finding ways to adapt to it. Now go tell all those pee brain climatologists , because apprently they are too stupid to see the obvious.
Science and data do NOT say "CO2 in the atmosphere is from the burning of fossil fuels via isotope analysis and simple math. The levels jumped 35% when we started burning FFs". This is NOT a fact; there are huge questions about this assertion. It appears that you can not tell the difference between facts and unproven fiction. Temperature rises lead by 800 years increases in CO2 in the earth's atmosphere.
I wonder what you would accept as proof. At this point you simply look irrational. This is akin to calling black white.
