only morons try to nail jello to a wall. the pause is real... the idea that there is man made global warming is the speculation. Then it became climate change... then it became the heat is hiding in the oceans.
ok, just answer me this, how is it we can just dump co2 in the atmosphere and it really has no noticeable affect? I can't even piss in the creek behind my house every morning without it fucking up somebody that use to live there. I'm cool with challenging global warming alarmists who for some reason all seem to be liberal democrats, but I have a hard time understanding why conservative republicans all seem to think it doesn't ever make any difference what we do. Common sense tells me that if I cut down a tree that took a long time to grow, and burn it in a matter of minutes, something has to go somewhere.
That CO2 of long ago has been safely banked all this time in the bodies of fossilized plants, aka coal.
yes, I think you may be on to something here. I'm no scientist and don't really have a dog in the global warming fight, but what you say makes sense to a layman. The co2 is safely locked in coal and crude. It's been there a long time, and now it is being released like there is no tomorrow.
You don't have to be a scientist to see that; it's just common sense. As for having a dog in the fight, we all do in one way or another, unfortunately. Profits from fossil fuels aren't going to do one any good when he's dead.
no one is saying co2 does nothing. We know co2 is plant food... the earth is greening and crop production is going up. So there is a strong chance co2 is helping feed our population explosion. However, whether man made co2 is warming cooling, or doing nothing on net is unknown. We need more science. We know co2 can warm. We know co2 can cool.
