There is a hell of alot more to it. While they have dismissed the Malinkvitch(sp) cycle as a cause, that does not mean they're right. Right now, the Earth is closest to the sun in January, but that is of course changing. Why does it matter ? Well with the exception of Antarctica, there is more land mass in the northern hemisphere. You can pretty much discount Antarctica because it gets so little sun.

Another thing to remember, even if we eliminated most burning of things, even nuclear power makes heat, in fact that is a problem. I read that thorium reactors have less of a problem with that but still, without heat there will be no power. That is why the laws of thermodynamics apply to so many things you wouldn't think.

Actually it is the difference in heat. Without cooling, even if a nuclear reactor would not melt down, it would be unable to produce any power. So they dump that heat into rivers and lakes which makes the fish less horny, much to the dismay of fishermen...

The Earth would not have a problem with the gases of a billion people, but we got seven times that. And we got a throwaway society which means constantly melting things down and making new ones. This is what run the economy and ruins the ecology.

And we cannot change it. You want to go back to horse and buggy ? Or more like Gilligan's Island. Horses emit CO2 so we can't be breeding them like rabbits. And no more beef. Some of these people are so fanatical about this they talk about cow farts, I shit you not. (I just had to say that)

We have to figure out sane solutions that do not break the bank. Nobody wants to give up what we got. Maybe the solution is a new high tech O2 convertor. Take the CO2 and remove the C and bury it in the ground or something. There are processes for that but they are not cheap and not easy to implement on a large enough scale.

Come on with your ideas, I have thought this through and with today's technology, there is just about nothing we can do.

People are working on it though. They got algae farms that are carbon neutral. The problem is they take up too much space per BTU of output. I am pretty sure it is already genetically engineered so don't bother going there. Maybe engineer it more so you can squeeze more of it into every square inch. And the process of photosynthesis that makes that O2 out of CO2 only works so fast.

Any ideas ? Unfortunately I will probably shoot them down, but give the reasons. Like I said, if there was a viable alternative the oil companies would be all over it. You didn't see them (or Wall street) investing in Solyndra, and look what happened to them. They could not compete. Of course their technology is not all scrapped, someone might come along and develop it more and make it viable. I could also win the olympic gold medal in Women's gymnastics. Nobody is going to put that much into it. Solar has to become about 20 times more efficient before it can even think of replacing any other energy source. The only thing it has going for it is no maintenance.

Venera

On climate threads, on the ether, up until about 5-10 years I argued that nuclear malarkey was a necessity...I was 100% wrong to do so.

there are many theories on how to fix the climate - or is it negate mans effect, even stuff like Shrinking ship bubbles �could counteract climate change

the climate is prone to lurch without man and will do so may times again - we need a right good angry volcanoe - not a super malarkey - or Siberian Traps... wait that one actually warmed the earth

hmm this one then
deccan traps

or another Krakatoa

mind you Iceland is about overdue, and has been uncorked so to spake.....faster than it should have been - credit to man.

and hmm well even the younger dryas was a short lived affair at about 1000 years or so

heh all it might need is mother earth to shift the jet stream a wee bit and more precipitation to fall in th nothern hemisphere in winter thus increasing the earth albedo...Northern hemisphere has the greatest area -landmass...thats all it would take, or we could paint everything white.

So according to NASA,

Culprits are:

Co2 - solar powered cars and planes and trains, or anything that can be clean energy should fix this. Grow more trees?

Methane - Might have no choice but to just clone meat? No more raising cattle? It's now possible to just clone meat parts without raising a full animal. I bet cows releases more methane than anybody! I read that Kangeroos does not release any Methane at all, and breed easily and are in abundance. Maybe people just need to change to Kangeroo meat!

Nitrous Oxide- Can they then just stop anything that causes this? Seems to be just commercial and organic fertilizers, fossil fuel combustion, nitric acid production, and biomass burning

Isn't it supposed to continue expanding for a few billion years first before it begins to contract?

If it is then it could prove global warming is a natural occurrence of the sun growing bigger, but I don't remember reading about the expansion part.

Actually, the sun remains at a comparatively stable size. To my understanding of the sun, it is sunspot activity that effects earth's magnetism (magnetic field) rather than so much the earth's temperature.

I dont know if it exists or not, what i do know is that the earth changes, that sea levels rise and land/islands disappear.. i saw a map projection of the US for 2100 and Houston is in the middle of the ocean (YIKES!), half of FL is under water, etc etc.. will I be alive then? (I am gonna try to be lol)..

eta- Memorial day last year Houston had a terrible 500 year flood, a few weeks ago, we had another once in 500 years flood... less than a year later... something is definately wrong, imo..


"Sea-level rise claims five islands in Solomons

Five islands have disappeared in the Pacific's Solomon Islands due to rising sea levels and coastal erosion, according to an Australian study that could provide valuable insights for future research.

A further six reef islands have been severely eroded in the remote area of the Solomons, the study said, with one experiencing some 10 houses being swept into the sea between 2011 and 2014.

"At least 11 islands across the northern Solomon Islands have either totally disappeared over recent decades or are currently experiencing severe erosion," the study published in Environmental Research Letters said.

"Shoreline recession at two sites has destroyed villages that have existed since at least 1935, leading to community relocations."

The scientists said the five that had vanished were all vegetated reef islands up to five hectares (12 acres) that were occasionally used by fishermen but not populated.

"They were not just little sand islands," leader author Simon Albert told AFP.

It is feared that the rise in sea levels will cause widespread erosion and inundation of low-lying atolls in the Pacific.

Albert, a senior research fellow at the University of Queensland, said the Solomons was considered a sea-level hotspot because rises there are almost three times higher than the global average.

The researchers looked at 33 islands using aerial and satellite imagery from 1947 to 2014, combined with historical insight from local knowledge."

I guess the whole thing is really if it's man-made or is it nature made. If it's nature made, then there is nothing we can do to stop it.

Sea levels have definitely been rising every year, and the smallest country in the world, already got swallowed by it. I think we used to be the 3rd smallest country in the world, and thanks to that smallest country getting swallowed, we are now the 2nd.

NASA does not deny the increased sun activities. But their data on how those activities should technically affect earth does not correlate. Seem to be more consistent with the green house effect of earth hemisphere caused by all the accused gases.

I would appreciate some global cooling in my country! But I am not feeling it! If it's suppose to happen in 2015!!! Where is it!

And I was sooo mad when I was in Switzerland suppose to be right in deep winter, and there was no snow! Which was apparently, completely unusual for the time I was there in January.

Actually your question is not necessarily relevant to human behavior. Climate change meaning just that, can occur for natural reasons. I am thinking and not to derail but am asking you, do you really mean...is the planet getting warmer and is it because of man's contribution to what we have been told is [his] adding 37% more CO2 to the earth's atmosphere ?

It is my belief that the latter is what's true and because of the science of just how in fact...CO2 does hold more heat in the atmosphere.

The idea that CO2 holds heat into the atmosphere is not through what most of those who dispute the science believe...through convection or conduction. Those do not occur and the earth neither gain or loses heat in of from the atmosphere through conduction or convection as the earth lives in the vacuum of space. The gases themselves are held into our atmosphere because of gravity. That goes for all gases and is not why that additional 37% of CO2...causes global warming.



its a self balancing system, more co2 = more clouds = more sunlight is reflected away from the earth = less heating.


The problem is the increase in the suns activity, solar flares.




more here


What we were given at the birth of the planet and up until the industrial revolution, was a natural carbon cycle. (a balance) We are since the immense use of fossil fuels, adding that CO2 to the cycle. First the added CO2 is way above the clouds, Cloud cover (water vapor) moves and is sporadic and inconsistent and varies tremendously. [It] does not hold in or disperse any radiant heat.

What doesn't vary, is the only way we get heat from the sun...IR radiation. CO2 changes that radiant heat from long wave to short wave causing more heat to remain in the atmosphere from way above the clouds. This gradually raises the heat below where clouds form and the warmer air holding more water, causes bigger snows, bigger floods. Not more, just bigger.

That 'balance' is the carbon cycle and it is that very cycle that all of the additional CO2 fucks with and the warming of the ocean, normally a 60% CO2 sink, and its increasing acidity is what screwing with that cycle, falling below 60%. The ocean is no longer the carbon sink it was and CO2 is reducing it as such. Its increasing acidity is also fucking with species not just the ocean as a carbon sink.

Also the biosphere where mankind is tearing down our greens another carbon sink, is also further exacerbating the problem with the carbon cycle.

Lets see.. baker's dozen reasons climate change is a farce.

1. All the planets have seen increases in temperature. As far as I know, no humans on mars. Or on the moons of jupiter. How do you explain warming on jupiter if you blame everything on AGW?

2. Climate always changes. We go through a period of a 20 degree temperature change every 75K years. We are due for one now. How do you know that what you abscribe to anthropogenic is, in fact, not not natural change.

3. CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Yay! However, each 10fold increase in c02 concentration only makes a small contribution to temperature increase). Straight out of the IPCC.

4. Ice cores reveal that CO2 concentration lags temperature -it doesn't lead it. By 600 years.

5. Boyle's Law / Henry's Law says that every tiny increase in temperature due to insolation will result in massive amounts of CO2 being released into the atmosphere. How would you differentiate planetary variability from insolation? Ie., how do you separate Boyles Law activity from AGW?

6. Svenmarks theory of non ionizing radiation (as confirmed by CERN) has a 96% R. Value. AGW R correlatin is less than .1.

7. Nasa published a paper that said -
a). The IPCC mechanism for aerosol formation is wrong.
b). We don't know the net effect of additional CO2. Low in the atmosphere it warms the earth. In the upper atmosphere it cools.

8. Judith Curry,a lead author of the IPCC says the aersol seciton is wrong, and the temperature record does not track the IPCC predictions.

9. Fraudulent data. More than two dozen instances of various meteorological organizations falsifying data. From Michael Mann (96% of all data sets treated as he does generates a hockey stick) to East Anglia refusing to release data, to Nasa modifying data and discarding the original, to nasa correcting weather temerpateure readings with changes 2x as large as permitted, to the attempt to use ship thermometers as opposed to well calibrated ground stations, to erasing the data from the 1920-1934; to proclaiming 1997-1998 the hottest year when 1934 was, to erasing more than 350 siberian weather station - to using the results of known defective Hadcrut-4 satelitte which is showing drift of .2 degrees per decade. The list goes on and on...

10. People that cannot predict the weather 5 days in advance believe they can predict it 10 years in advance. Some of their notable predictions - no snow in britain by 2016; no glaciers in the himalyas; no artic ice cap by 2016, mass extinctions of polar bears (record population btw). Record storms intensity. Also not true.

11. The guy that made the weather channel, the head of the french meteorological and the past emeritus president of the American Physics society have all labelled AGW 'a fraud'. Not to mention that the soviet nor the chinese academies of science have endorsed. At least as of the last time I checked.

12. More than 22,000 papers that disprove or disagree with the theory of AGW

13. The theory of global warming keeps adjusting temperature expectations downward, while increasing the certainty.

14. The primary intent and effect of the Paris accord was to extract cash from rich nations - and give it to poor nations. Primary target - US.

15. The yale report, which said, even if global warming were true, that it would be better to ignore it for 50 years and remediate.

16. Crop yields are up around 11% due to increased CO2. Benefits of higher CO2 are routinely discounted why the costs (250 million climate refugees!) even when not true, are bruited.

It's been reason 14 for some time. It's a transfer of wealth thing more than anything else. I'll change my tune when someone shows me a study I can read that accurately predicts future climate and is reproducible. I've been waiting over twenty years to see one. The climate may be changing, but who says that's a bad thing?
