I made a little table for the OT. It's starts at CO2 concentration of 415 and temp of 70 degrees F and calculates the new temperature at a new CO2 ppm. This assumes all other atmospheric gases are adjusted downward proportionally as CO2 concentration increases.

Your table seems to differ wildly from this.

lol, MORE dry & hot.

Commanches and Apaches were like "no way white man ever come here" in the 18th & 19th century.

That is a properties of matter approach.

This is a statistical approach.

On the previous page in this thread I wrote this:

Also someone please explain this from a physics point of view in terms of the he amount of heat required to change its temperature by one degree.

Gotta be able to find some common ground at some point
Common ground can’t be found. Know why?

One side is dishonest about the data, and one isn’t.

The climate crazies are incapable of actually discussing the data, for them there IS NO DATA older than a few hundred years old. Ask any of them what will happen when the temperature gets 20-25 degrees warmer on average. Not if, when, because it will happen whether humans exist on the planet or not. After they quit frothing at the mouth you’ll probably get “everything will die”, which is laughable.

You keep hearing “warmest ever recorded”, which is true, as it tends to warm up after an ice age and we had one very recently. That of course means “since the invention of the thermometer” and isn’t remotely close to “warmest ever”, but ask a climate crazy if they mean warmest ever the answer you’ll get will be yes.

“Fastest warming ever”. Is that a true statement? Take a gander at the curve from the Cambrian Ordovician boundary, the Devonian period, the Permian… there’s simply no way to make that statement as a statement of fact, it’s what most people would call a WAG (wild arse guess).

The funniest thing of all? Look up Icehouse and Hothouse, and realize which one we’re in right now.

Wait I'm in the side of people that believe in manmade climate change and I believe none of the shite you just said haha.

It's not the hottest its ever been and it isn't warming faster than ever. An asteroid hitting the earth or a huge volcanic eruption spreading fires would have a way faster impact

We get four months of brutal heat in return for 8 months of mild pleasant weather with a cold spell here and there every year.

Package Deal

Anyone that's from Texas knows this and has accepted it.

Each year, everyone says it's getting hotter. Maybe it is. Or maybe we're just getting older and less tough. Probably a combination of both.

Want perfect weather all year?

Move to SoCal and live amongst the deplorables and pay state taxes and live without any semblance of law and order - I'll take the 4 months of heat.

So you admit you’re a man made climate change advocate, yet you disagree with all their positions.

Which doesn’t make you a man made climate change advocate. Man can affect the climate, but he isn’t the reason it’s warming up currently. It’s supposed to, we’re actually a little overdue for a warming spike if you look at the last half a million years of history.

There are plenty of reasons it is warming up currently, man being among them

That one always cracks me up, but were scientists in charge of putting up the signs?


Yes.

Really? You find it difficult? A simple google search shows dozen of reports by scientist claiming ice feee seas by mid 2030’s. And I’m not even looking for past reports.

Nearly ice free seas by the mid 2030s is different than saying "this Glacier right here will be gone"

Forecast models and predictions are done on a percentage basis. They can tell me there is a 10% chance of me being rained on tomorrow but not where the rain will fall.

with math, can you show what % humans are causing the climate to change?

What percentage of our atmosphere is CO2?


Much less than 0.1% probably closer to 0.05%

NASA estimate is around ~2°F caused by man based on concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere and ocean temperatures.

What equations did you use to calculate that?

I want to come back to this. In another thread I have already proven that the "They always say this!" crowd is completely wrong about the CSU April Atlantic hurricane season forecast.

NOAA puts out their early forecast in May. They've done it in the current format since 1999. Their's is a little different in that they give odds of Below, Near Normal, Normal, and Above Normal. We don't have a reason to post the odds here, so I went with just how active they ultimately forecast the seasons to be.

In the past 24 May Atlantic hurricane season forecasts NOAA has predicted an Above Normal season 13 times and a Below/Near Normal/Normal forecast 11 times.
