What journal is this?


What journal?




NOAA's National Climatic Data Center (NCDC)

It is the source every journal cites!

Do you need further specification?

It's just a glorious combination of liberal arrogance and scientific ignorance.

I've never been able to decide what is more laughable, blindly believing in the largely politically driven "man is causing climate change" narrative or actually questioning climate change altogether.

I tend to lean toward the liberal political narrative since they by and large know exactly what they are doing. The other is just(mostly) unintentional ignorance or a misunderstanding a conservative talking points.

Where do you think that CO2 goes? It's changing the atmospheric composition.



Is the change in long term climate directly related to an increase in CO2 or is the increase in CO2 independent from the changes?

Further, how do you know that the solar output is exactly the same over centuries? How do you know that earthly events such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and jet streams shifting having caused the changes you attribute to gasses in the atmosphere?

Even if you can claim to account for solar output along centuries of dubious data, account for earthly events, and account for jet streams can you account for the natural climate changes of the past completely independent of the 'polluting people' such as the climate warming period in the early European renaissance?

8 trillion tons of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere annually from the burning of fossil fuels......by humans. That's all I am saying.

Your correlation = causation fallacy will not become more true merely by repeating it.

The earth's temperature is rising, but not nearly at the exaggerated rate many want us to believe. It also ignores the cyclical climate change our planet and always experienced, as well as the fact that the earth has been much hotter than it is not multiple times in just the last few million years.

Okay

How do you get from that to anthropomorphic global warming besides a nonscientific downplaying of relevant variables?

He can't "know" these things, because both are false.

The sun's output is not constant, and we know for a fact natural phenomena alter weather patterns.

Gosh danged man, you couldn't trap a rabbit with a bag full of carrots.

It was a ruse to see if he would posit that opinion so I could then destroy it.

why don't you tell us how many tons of CO2 are emitted naturally into the atmosphere annually

Introducing more carbon (that has been inert underground) to the natural carbon cycle would make a difference in my estimation. All of this is speculative on my part.

I was being sarcastic. It's common sense and widely accepted by climate scientists.

So common in fact that most Americans including yourself don't understand it.

You mean widely accepted by the scientists questioned in the biased surveys. There are A LOT of scientists in relevant fields who scoff at the idea that we can control global warming significantly.

I'll simplify it down for the idiots here, lock yourself in a closed garage and leave your vehicle running. See how long you will last.

Thus why I laugh when I here the extreme right bringing up "well in 1900 the temperature was was this and that".
