A case study of the tactics of climate change denial, in which I
am the target

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2012/02/02/a-case-study-of-the-tactics-of-climate-change-denial-in-which-i-am-the-target/

Over the years I have pointed out the fallacious arguments of
climate change deniers when they attack legitimate climatologists
like James Hansen and Michael Mann. This is, of course, like
kicking at a bee hive, and whenever I do the comments section of
my posts fill with lots of angry buzzing.

But now, for what I think is the first time, I find myself the
target of an attack. And I have to admit, I welcome it: it’s a
textbook case of denialist sleight of hand, of distraction,
distortion, error, and misdirection.

Stick around for all of this. It’ll be... interesting.

OK, first, here’s the scoop: a few days ago, I wrote a blog post
taking apart two intellectually bankrupt climate change denial
articles, one in the Wall Street Journal, and the other in the
UK’s Daily Mail. Both were claiming that global warming appears to
have stopped in the past few years, a claim which is trivially
easy to show wrong. In fact, I linked to two articles doing just
that: one at Skeptical Science, and another I myself wrote.
Finding actual scientists destroying that claim is not hard at
all; those two links have many more links therein.

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2012/01/30/while-temperatures-rise-denialists-reach-lower/

In my post about the WSJ and DM, I included a graph. It pretty
clearly shows temperatures rising from 1973 to the present. And
this is where the fun begins.

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/files/2012/01/skepticalscience_globalwarming1.jpg

That’s the plot. It’s from a recent, independent study done at
Berkeley, and represents actual, measured, data. Just to be clear,
those points are from weather stations across the globe, and the
method used to collect and analyze those measurements is described
by the Berkeley team themselves (PDF). With me so far?

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2011/10/21/new-independent-climate-study-confirms-global-warming-is-real/

http://berkeleyearth.org/pdf/berkeley-earth-uhi.pdf

Apparently, William Briggs is not with me. He takes very vigorous
exception to the graph in an article he wrote which he titled
"Bad Astronomer Does Bad Statistics: That Wall Street Journal
Editorial." I encourage you to read it, so that you can assure
yourself I am not misrepresenting his arguments in any way.

http://wmbriggs.com/blog/?p=5138

I found out about this article when I saw a tweet by Dr. Briggs
himself. My first thought was: Uh oh. I sure hope I didn’t make a
math mistake somewhere in my WSJ post! I better read Briggs’
article and see... So I read it.

My next thought after reading his arguments was then: Ho-hum. So?

The mismeasure of an argument

Basically, Briggs accuses me of not understanding statistics, of
not including error bars, of misrepresenting that points in that
plot, of not displaying the plot correctly, and so on ad nauseum.
His biggest claim: that those points aren’t measurements at all,
but estimates.

Here’s the thing: he’s wrong. Those point are in fact
measurements, though they are not raw measurements right off the
thermometers. They have been processed, averaged, in a
scientifically rigorous way to make sure that the statistics
derived from them are in fact solid. The Berkeley team describes
in detail how that was done (PDF), and does actually call them
estimates, but not because they are just guessing, or using some
arcane computer model. They are technically estimates, in the
sense that any measurement is an estimate, but they are really,
really good ones. Greg Laden tears this use of words apart, as
well as pretty much everything else Briggs wrote.

http://berkeleyearth.org/pdf/berkeley-earth-averaging-process.pdf

http://scienceblogs.com/gregladen/2012/02/william_m_briggs_has_misunders.php

Oddly, Briggs then goes on to call them "predictions" for some
reason, and that they came from "models", which is just weird.
It’s as if he’s trying to use a word choice that raises doubt
about the measurements. But again he’s wrong. They really are
measurements, not model predictions. At Open Mind, Brigg’s word
choice once again is ripped apart. [Note: Briggs has left a
comment there, further verifying the fact that his use of words is
incorrect.]

http://tamino.wordpress.com/2012/02/01/william-m-briggs-numerologist-to-the-stars/#comment-59152

This reminds me of one of my favorite skeptic jokes. Question: How
many legs does a dog have if you call its tail a leg?

Answer: Four. It doesn’t matter what you call a tail, it’s not a
leg.

There are many other places where Briggs makes mistakes that
render his arguments null; for example, the error bars (what
statisticians usually call "uncertainty") are in fact made
available by the Berkeley team, and are small compared to the
long-term rise in temperature. For another, Briggs says I
should’ve shown the plot going farther into the past, because 1973
was actually a low point. However, that’s completely wrong: it’s
actually a high point! As Deep Climate points out here, this
actually makes the warming trend lower. So in true contrarian
fashion, Briggs is contrary even to himself. It’s bizarre.

http://tamino.wordpress.com/2012/02/01/william-m-briggs-numerologist-to-the-stars/#comment-59147

So really, there goes Briggs’ argument. His main point is wrong,
so we’re done, right?

Well, no. There’s more fun to be had here.

Beside the point

If you read Briggs’ article, you certainly get the impression that
because the graph I use is statistically meaningless (so he
incorrectly claims), then my whole argument about global warming
is wrong.

And this is where I found myself greatly amused, though in a
schadenfreude sort of way.

Think of it this way: if my argument hinged on that graph, and I
removed it, my argument would have no foundation, correct? It
would change the tenor of the entire blog post.

Go look at my article. If you remove that graph from it, what
changes? Nothing. My main point — that the WSJ and DM articles are
wrong, that we have lots of evidence the Earth is warming up, that
9 of the 10 hottest years on record occurred since the year 2000,
that the DM article specifically uses scientific studies and
presents them as if they say the exact opposite of what they
actually say — still stands.

So even if that graph is wrong and misrepresents what I’m saying —
which it does not — it doesn’t matter. In fact, I used that graph
as an illustration, to show how we’re warming up. I never intended
it to be the basis for the argument I was making, just a way of
further showing it. If you read the actual words I wrote,
including the links to many, many articles backing up my position,
you’ll see that Briggs has not refuted a single actual point I
made.

So even if he’s right about that graph, it doesn’t matter. And
he’s not right.

But notice what he’s done. He’s taken what is clearly a minor
point and blown it up as if it’s my main point. He’s used shady
words (predictions, models) to cast aspersions, and to make
someone (me!) look bad. Then, by "refuting" this minor issue he
can then poison the well, strongly implying that all my arguments
are wrong. That’s kind of a big no-no when trying to argue a
point.

http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/02/01/briggs-schools-the-bad-astronomer-on-statistics/

But it packages well. Watts Up With That, another denialist blog,
has run with Briggs’ claims about me as well. He also makes the
false claim that warming has stalled, and so on. Note WUWT also
says the signers of the WSJ OpEd are "16 scientists", which isn’t
true: not all are scientists, and only four have actually
published climate science research. And don’t forget about the
article the WSJ refused to print talking about the reality of
global warming, signed by 255 actual scientists.

Oops.

Denialism’s dark mirror

I will admit the irony of this attack amuses me greatly; Briggs
accuses me of many things he himself is doing. That is standard
fare from antiscience group: creationists, global warming deniers,
and alt-medders, for example, all seem to project their own
tactics on the scientists with whom they disagree. Don’t like real
medicine? Accuse scientists of being in the pocket of Big Pharma
(and forget about the millions being made by quacks on useless
"remedies"). Don’t believe in evolution? Accuse scientists of
being too dogmatic. Don’t think global warming is real? Accuse
scientists of misrepresenting the data.

My favorite irony is that a lot of these global warming denialists
take money from fossil fuel interests, but then routinely say to
"follow the money", as if it’s the climatologists who are raking
in the big bucks from shady think tanks with undisclosed
bankrollers. While Briggs points out he gets no money from them,
he asks where my money comes from. Think on this, Dr. Briggs; how
much money would I make if I suddenly turned coat and said global
warming wasn’t real? I’ll guarantee you it would be a lot more
than I make now, probably with a couple of zeroes added to the
end. So that argument falls a wee bit flat here.

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2012/01/25/five-shots-againt-global-warming-denialism/#bankroll

Like all the others.

Of course, given the comments I’ve seen on my blog, on Briggs’
blog, on Watts Up With That, or in any other blog discussing
global warming, I know how this will go. You can bring up the
major pieces of evidence supporting reality again and again, but
the denialists will ignore them and go after phantoms instead.
Because if they do acknowledge the actual evidence, they lose.

Denierism is being attenuated like noise in a correlation based
filter.

Wingers can put out a lot of mutually contradictory nonsense but since
it doesn't correlate it will eventually be overwhelmed by the signal
in the time integral. Tocqueville mentioned something that sounded
like a public opinion lock-in amp back in 1833.

And if they try to get organized -- "just like Hitler" as the
teabaggers are fond of saying -- around a few talking points then
those lies will draw the attention of the climate scientists. Those
lies can then be debunked directly, one by one.

There are ways to speed this process up, especially if you know
something about political science and signal processing.

Bret, I'd be curios to see what kind of data is out their supporting
the global warming theory, do you know of anybody compiling and making
available to the general public? Most of the messaging from this
position seems to be based on secondary suppositions such as we are
burning large amounts of fossil fuels which emits Co2 that has to be
creating global warming. I'd say in general, in my opinion, that the
position should focus on limited resources and sustainability.

So has it been decided without reasonable doubt that it isn't a cycle
of warming and an actual trend? How far back does the data go and who
is collecting the data? Common messaging is that the observations
seem to be heavily based on the amount of ice melting at the poles
right?

Well put. The other day I had a friend ask me, "don't you think
those meteorologic scientists have an agenda?".

I replied, "what if their agenda is to go places and report the
findings?" Because that's what the VAST majority of scientists DO.

The fact that a few have altered their findings to garner more
funding is irrelevant. The Earth is warming. Period.

The cause of this warming is another story altogether.

At the end of the day, polluting our planet is not a good thing.

No. Observations and temperature reading worldwide show that the Earth's
mean temp. is rising. It is what is is.

Denying it is just stupid.

We can argue the cause(s). The facts speak for themselves.

CO2?


You connect all those and call it proof, I say maybe proof that you

“According to calculations conducted by Hansen and his colleagues,
the 0.58 watts per square meter imbalance implies that carbon dioxide

So, what part of the quantitative .58 w/m2 or 2.96e14 watt global

296 TW of AGW doesn’t seem so bad, unless your local drought and/or
weather extremes are either draining your bank account or killing
you. Are you and other pretend-Atheist, that only seem to act/react
exactly like Semites, favoring an ice-free Earth?

Obviously the rich and powerful could care less how much climate
change or weather severity (hot, cold or stormy) is taking place,
because they get to relocate as often and as far away from the really
nasty stuff as they like (using their private yachts and business jets
none the less), and usually not even having to pay an extra cent in
taxes because they’ll find a way of writing it off as another one of
their business expenses. On the other hand, the middle and lower
caste seems to be directly in harms way of GW and AGW consequences.
In fact, it seems the rich and powerful desire as much GW and AGW as
they can muster or allowing others to create, as another way of
culling the lower 95% of us, thereby sucking away at our savings and
making it look as though only nature was responsible for killing us
off.

Oddly, it seems we’ve deforested and paved over quite enough, as well
as making the average density of diatoms not 10% of what they used to
be, in that converting CO2 back into O2 just isn’t happening to the
extent that Henry Merrick thinks is happening. However, surface
erosion has accelerated and the chemicals plus metallicity
artificially added to the global surface, ground water and atmospheric
environment has never been greater, and it’s only getting worse.

It seems warming up another significant part of this planet puts more
water vapor into the atmosphere (at least that's physics-101), and
weather/storm extremes do not happen due to global cooling, but you
mainstreamers can go right ahead and pretend otherwise.

Global dimming via multiple natural and artificial methods will
usually not cause a global cooling trend, unless you're talking about
an extremely large and volumetric dosage of heavy or extremely dense
and sulfuric volcanic output that would have to be sustained at
perhaps ten fold normal levels for several years (not just for any few
months or even a year might not be sufficient).

Objective measurements of the continuing ice volume losses is also
hard to keep ignoring, but I’m sure if anyone can it’ll have to be the
likes of our Hagar and his fellow ZNRs that are in perpetual denial
about damn near everything. Seasonal snow and ice hardly counts, but
you can always make any seasonal affected area look like another ice-
age, just like our NASA/Apollo era made our physically dark moon look
so monochromatic of pastels offering only light grays that were also
oddly inert for such a naked terrain that was nicely eroded down to
only soft rolling hills, and not the least bit metallicity worthy, or
even the least bit UV reactive, much less anticathode worthy. In
other words the Apollo moon was acting as though it were metallicity
deficient.

Your redneck ZNR approved planet as apparently having no tipping
points and unlimited resources plus ample roadkill and free deep-
fryers for everyone, is noted. In other words, you're saying that
without us humans mass consuming, burning, exploding, excavating,
polluting and exploiting everything in sight (above and below ground
plus indiscriminate harvesting throughout all oceans), as well as
simply venting or spilling whatever as much and often as we like,
whereas without us humans the natural geothermal and atmospheric
energy budget and the chemical plus diversity of raw elements and
biological genetic diversity balance for our Eden environment would be
all out of whack. Got it! (Earth is obviously going cryogenic at any
moment, and needs another fresh restart after the next great thaw)

Silly me, I didn't know that having an artificially made acidic and
carcinogenic atmosphere was actually a good thing, along with
increased soot and raw methane for added global dimming and solar
heating.

Silly me again, for having not appreciated Canada burning their raw
(unprocessed) natural gas in order to get that toxic oil out of their
mucky sand (all at a net energy loss), was actually a very good thing
that couldn’t have been done any better, or sooner.

After all, who the hell doesn’t need more arsenic, mercury, lead,
sulfur and CO in their mostly coal fired industrial and civilian
environment, along with the extra soot, methane, radioisotopes like
radium and radon in order to balance out the extra NOx, CO and CO2.

I didn’t know that by venting massive volumes of raw natural gas along
with helium which tends to displace and/or destabilizes our protective
O3/ozone layer, was yet another perfectly good thing that needed to be
done.

I also didn’t realize that we can never have enough plutonium plus so
many other secondary lethal fission elements for feeding our
skullduggery and WMD frenzy.

I mean, who the hell doesn’t need several thousand tonnes of spent
reactor fuel at risk of losing its cool, which of course wouldn’t even
be an issue if it were spent thorium reactor fuel.

I honestly didn't know that having acidic and toxic fresh water
(surface and deep aquifers artificially polluted) was yet another
super good thing that mother nature needed our help with.

I didn't know that getting rid of that pesky Greenland ice-cap wasn't
yet another super good idea that can’t happen soon enough. (after all,
most of Florida was supposed to be underwater)

I didn't realize the thousands of complex specie extinctions was yet
another good thing we humans have caused or at the very least
expedited, because who the hell needs them other forms of complex
life.

I didn't realize that custom engineered virus and lethal microbials
was just the best ever ticket that Earth couldn't possibly manage
without our help.

I also didn’t realize that Corexit plus numerous other industrial
chemicals as molecular hydrocarbon modifiers and perfectly worthy of
causing genetic mutations was perfectly healthy for us and most other
species.

I certainly didn't realize that lower caste starvation and wars (bogus
or real) because of economic disparities, energy deficiencies
contrived via hoarding or banishment, extensive drought and weather
extremes plus failing crops was all such a good thing in order to
justify global inflation that you and your buddies see nothing wrong
with.

Silly old me, to think that our mutually perpetrated cold-war(s) and
the likes of 9/11 wasn’t a good thing. I mean, what would we have
done otherwise with our spare time and trillions of our hard earned
loot if the US and USSR hadn’t created the likes of North Korea and
Israel to begin with.

So, you’re good with as many dead Jews as possible, as long as only
white Zionist Jews either do their own killing, or cause others to do
the killings in order to justify their subsequent revenge killings by
provoking others?

How about your devout kosher support of the global ethnic culling, in
order to get rid of 6.5 billion humans, and for keeping the global
population always under the “Georgia Guidestones” specified 500
million. Would you care to further elaborate on its kosher approved
redneck authority? (at least so far, all of the Usenet/newsgroup
contributors that act/react exactly like Zionists/Jews, haven’t had
one bad word to say against “The Age of Reason” by yet another
pseudonym that’s hiding himself and his associations)

Don’t get me wrong, as I’m not suggesting a planet like Earth would
not be a whole lot better off under one world government with a common
language and having to host considerably fewer of us, as only highly
educated wizards that’ll each get to know all there is to know, much
like having only a few species of ants could be interesting if these
were hybrid or intelligent engineered enough in order to accomplish
the same jobs as the 12000 species had been accomplishing as of long
before humans even existed.
http://www.antark.net/ant-species/

Perhaps the fewer organic species the better. I mean, why stop at
restricting the variations and population of humans, such as who the
hell needs oxygen from diatoms and their storage of CO2? Imagine our
discovering another Earth that had only one selected species of highly
intelligent humans, and having no other complex forms of organic life,
of which we wouldn’t be allowed to visit or interact with this planet
because everything about our less than 500 million would likely kill
them.

If there were a selection of 100 human species of five million each,
would this be sufficient biological diversity to insure our survival?

Isn’t sustaining the wide diversity of terrestrial life kind of good
biodiversity insurance against our extinction?

Is it imperative that we all think exactly alike, just so that
rednecks like our Hagar can sleep at night?

Notice that our Hagar the commander and chief warlord and resident
hatemonger of Usenet/newsgroups hasn’t specified a common world
religion or his faith-based policy that’s sufficiently redneck
approved. Perhaps those Hagar Guidestones will make this perfectly
clear.

Of course the extremely nearby planet Venus is not without any number
of GW faults and consequences that are pretty much all natural and
doing a fine job, of keeping that planet cooler than it otherwise
might be if the full 2650 w/m2 of sunlight was allowed to get down to
its active geothermally heated surface. Some terrestrial scientists
actually want us to try putting a few million tonnes of sulfur into
our upper atmosphere, for accomplishing the same reflective cooling
effect, except lacking atmospheric buoyancy is why it will not stay up
there, and the end result would likely be much worse off.

That rug is not the one on your porch, is it?

Those multiple hot spots seem to be outnumbering the cold spots, not
only by size but by duration. I take it you don’t buy into the .58 w/
m2 of energy budget imbalance.

GW and AGW obfuscation:, and the usual denial of being in denial,
works every time, as quantitative physics that interact with on
another, but not always for the greater good.

SO you do know that you have no ocean temps from before about 1900 don't
you.... And you know that most of the worlds temps were not accurate and
not consistently working/reporting and that the USA was one place you
have a somewhat consistent and working temperature data set....

So 2/3 of the earth is water and you have no 1800 data for that and the
land areas were mostly lacking except the USA and Europe, so there is
lets say 50% of the remaining 1/3 so you are using 1/6 of the planet to
extrapolate the global temperatures? We didn't even go to the
Antarctic and take the temperature until after 1900 did we? The coldest
place on the planet and you have no data but you can tell us the global
temperature?

each time you take a hit on the area or the quality of data you lose
credibility.


So far you want us to all agree that you have accurate temperature data
when in fact the plus or minus error spread is huge.

Then you apply that data to recent data from a satellite....?


If you had HIGH QUALITY DATA and it was from 90% of the planet surface I
might accept your data and give weight to your theory, but you don't and
I can't.

That rug of AGW sweepings (that’s supposedly hiding cold spots), is
not the rug on your trailer porch, is it?

It seems the pro-GWs want the rest of us to believe that it’s all
perfectly natural and automatically taking care of us, regardless of
whatever 7+ billion humans has done.

Are you suggesting that cold temperatures and whatever glacial
buildups are being systematically excluded or obfuscated?

Those multiple hot spots seem to be outnumbering the cold spots, not
only by size but via duration. I take it you and other GWs don’t buy
into any part of the AGW .58 w/m2 of our global energy budget
imbalance.

GW and AGW obfuscation:, and the usual denial of being in denial works
every time, as well as quantitative physics that interact with one
another, but not always for the greater good seems to get ignored,
because the rich and powerful really don’t have to care.

Well, I've got data that says that temperatures are rising.

What data do you have on god?

OK. Let's say that you are correct.
How do we fix it and how much will it cost ME?

Congratulations, GuthBall ... you have been successfully brain
washed and turned into a zombie. Cooling and warming cycles
alternate and there is not a damn thing you can do about it.
Not to mention the help we get from Nature in the form of
volcanoes and hydro-thermal vents (lots and lots of them).
But, you schmucks can't fine Mother Nature, so in desperation
you lash out at everyone else in a futile attempt you alleviate
your insanity. There has not been a temperature increase
since 2001, you numbnutz ... and anyone arguing the contrary
is a liar. Spare me you ridiculous numbers. Tell me what YOU
think the percentage of pollution caused by mankind is in the
overall scheme of things ... you have no clue, because you're
a hapless imbecile.
You might also want to explain to us how that would work:
When Al "there's a fire raging twixt me loins" Gore indicates
that his off-shore bank accounts are stuffed to the brim, then
the Global Warming crisis (or whatever the fuck you call it
now) is over ??? Does he then flip the magic switch ???
Liberalism is a Mental Disorder and you're past the point
of return to sanity, as we know it.

Actually, the cooler the planet the less stormy it gets. So, what the
hell is wrong with your version of this supposed ice-age we're into?

I would actually doubt that any 42 ppm reduction in CO2 by itself can
cancel out the .58 w/m2 of global energy imbalance, especially when so
much of the global imbalance of 296 TW isn’t strictly CO2 related.
However, if we can manage to cut CO2 by 42 ppm it stands to reason
that many other reductions in soot, CO, NOx, CH4 and a host of other
released elements (including helium) is going to get reduced at the
same time. The accumulative affect is going to be positive and
otherwise beneficial, even if it only accomplishes a 10% improvement (.
058 W/m2), but it's certainly a start in the right direction.

A mostly ice-free Greenland isn’t such a bad idea, considering how
much higher above ocean levels that little continent gets, and the
terrific exposed area of dry land becomes habitable, with no shortages
of inland fresh water. Importing a million trees per year would be
another good thing, along with topsoils for those and everything else
to grow from.

I'm not. You are. I agreed that the Earth is warming. I also stated
that the causes for this warming are not fully understood.

YOU then stated that the causes were understood.

I asked as to a solution and the per capita cost for same.

......You then proceeded to have a melt down.

The facts remain that based on current data the Sun does have a major
effect on climate change. However, what is of concern are Co2 levels.
The question is are we as a species helping to accelerate this warming
trend? The evidence is overwhelming that we are.

The fuckwit scientists that constantly deny this fact are bought and
paid for by big industry. They have the power and the money to
forestall any change in the right direction if it is going to affect
their bottom line. Fooling the general public is child’s play for
these movers and shakers. Look how long they have kept the UFO and
Alien phenomena cover up going.

Don’t expect a change for the better as long as Big Oil rules. The
world and especially the American public are easily fooled into
believing their lies. Look how many dumb asses still vote
Republican. No, as long as people like HVAC can manage to get to
the voters booth and instead of doing the research think in terms of
their wallet, nothing will change.

Except the climate…..

It is the height of hubris to believe that we fully

If you are correct and humans have been the cause of this
current warming trend, the solution would be to construct at
least 50 new nuclear power plants in the next decade or so.

Are you global warming hippies prepared to take that step?

If not, then shut the fuck up.

The problem here is that short term temperature data doesn't provide
much, if any insights into what causes the long term climate changes.
I'm talking about the 110 to 120 thousand year cycles that are
recorded in the polar ice. Ice core studies have shown at least four
such cycles, and there were probably more before that time, but the
polar ice isn't available for those earlier cycles.

The mainstream status quo wants nothing to change, at least not for
the better, because the rich and powerful could honestly care less
about GW or AGW weather extremes or the cost of everything.

Global CO2 is more of an indicator rather than any singular cause of
AGW.

Solar variations are truly minimal. The end result of whatever
internal fusion within our sun (regardless of the internal time delay
from start to exit) is still going to become the surface or
photosphere radiated energy, and a great deal of science has proven
when the sun has been measurably hotter or cooler, as such hasn't
offered any strong link as to what Earth has to work with, such as
when we try to deductively figure out GW and AGW science.

Try to remember, that by going only 0.1 km (100 meters) below the
surface, the +/- solar energy is nearly meaningless, because day or
night is practically meaningless. As for going any deeper than a km
under the surface, whereas even if the sun varied by +/50% would not
make any significant difference. Should that sun entirely vanish
would not measurably affect the bedrock that’s any km+ deep, however
the lack of tidal modulation would be measurably noticed as a measured
reduction in global heat.

On the annual cycle basis, most of our glacial ice thaw has been
melting from the bottom up. This is not to say that our AGW and its
global dimming isn’t working its magic from the top down.

The amount of stored heat, including fission generated heat and tidal
modulated heat from within Earth is considerably greater than any
solar heat influx. The extra 296 TW of thermal imbalance is just the
amount humans manage to contribute via mostly hydrocarbons, fission
and hydroelectric energy.

“According to calculations conducted by Hansen and his colleagues, the
0.58 watts per square meter imbalance implies that carbon dioxide
levels need to be reduced to about 350 parts per million to restore
the energy budget to equilibrium. The most recent measurements show
that carbon dioxide levels are currently 392 parts per million and
scientists expect that concentration to continue to rise in the
future.”

So, go right ahead and specify or declare what scientific quantitative
part of the estimated .58 w/m2 or 296 TW worth of global thermal
imbalance are you buying or not buying into?

296 TW of AGW (42.3 kw/person) doesn’t seem so bad, unless your local
area drought and/or weather/storm extremes are either draining your
bank account or otherwise killing you.

I would actually doubt that any 42 ppm reduction in CO2 by itself can
cancel out the .58 w/m2 of global energy imbalance, especially when so
much of the global imbalance of 296 TW isn’t strictly CO2 related.
However, if we can manage to cut the global CO2 by an average of 42
ppm, it stands to good reason that many other reductions in our soot,
CO, NOx, CH4 and a host of other released elements (including helium)
is going to get reduced at the same time. The accumulative affect is
going to be positive and otherwise beneficial, even if it only
accomplishes a 10% improvement (.058 W/m2), but none the less it's
certainly a terrific start in the right direction.

Actually, a mostly ice-free Greenland isn’t such a bad idea,
considering how much higher above ocean levels that little continent
gets, and the terrific exposed area of dry land becomes habitable,
with no shortages of inland fresh water. Importing a million trees
per year would be another good thing, along with topsoils for those
and everything else to grow from. With any luck, Greenland could
become the new Eden for us.

We also can notice that trillion dollar PER YEAR energy tax that vtcapo

under 1 %. Of course that tax would pay for those nukes (provided the

There's lots of renewable energy that's relatively failsafe and
doesn't create CO2, SO2, CO, NOx and disperse a slew of other nasty
toxins, as well as not releasing precious helium, but those are not
nearly as profitable nor worth going to war over. There’s also
numerous methods of utilizing our energy a whole lot more efficiently
and making it more reliable at the same time. For some reason Steven
Chu and others of our previous, current and future administrations do
not feel the need nor having any personal motives for changing a damn
thing.

Global CO2 is more of an indicator rather than any singular cause of
AGW, just like smoke or soot is an indicator of fire.

Solar variations are truly minimal, whereas the end result of whatever
internal fusion within our sun (regardless of the internal time delay
from start to exit) is still going to become the hot surface or
photosphere radiated energy, and a great deal of science has long
since proven when the sun has been measurably hotter or cooler, as
CO, NOx, SO2, CH4 and a host of other released elements (including
helium) is going to get reduced at the same time. The accumulative
affect is going to be positive and otherwise beneficial to all known
forms of life, even terrific if it only accomplishes a 10% improvement
(.058 W/m2 or 29.6 TW), but none the less it's certainly a terrific
start in the right direction.

Actually, a mostly ice-free Greenland isn’t such a bad idea,
considering how much higher above ocean levels that little continent
gets, and the terrific exposed area of dry land becomes habitable,
with no shortages of inland fresh water. Importing a million trees
per year would be another good thing, along with topsoils for those
and everything else to grow from. With any luck, Greenland could
become the new Eden for us.

Greenland with another 50% loss of ice (-1.45e18 kg and say exposing
another 25% of its continent as ice-free land, worthy of 5e11 m2),
should actually turn out as being a very good place to live. As is,
Greenland is only 19% ice-free, or 4.1e11 m2 out of 2.166e12 m2,
although most of that ice-free land isn’t desirable to live on.
However, together that’s 9.1e11 m2 of ice-free land, with unlimited
hydroelectric and all the fresh water you could possibly want (after
exporting more than half of the 365e9 gallons of ice and compacted
snow melt per year, at the wholesale value of $1/gallon).

Outdated science: “Greenland's ice-free area increased by 16 percent
between 1979 and 2002” is a rate of roughly 0.7%/year, which by now
has likely increased to near 1%/year.

Btw; ice cores of Greenland’s compacted snow which becomes ice seem
to also track our industrial use of lead. Obviously even such heavy
elements of metallicity do carry themselves into the atmosphere, and
return to the surface as precipitation or snow.

Our resident parrot Sam Wormley is correct, in that GW+AGW is an
ongoing climate change, and most actively as of roughly 11,712 years
ago, but only as of lately getting into its highest gear and looking
grim for those that can’t afford to deal with it.

Seasonal weather is not global cooling or heating. If that snow and
ice arrived late and its duration is gone within the same or shorter
period of time as in previous years, it's not a cooling trend. For
another better example; snow buildup within central Antarctica is
only possible due to global warming, so perhaps that needs to be
objectively measured.

That rug of AGW sweepings (that’s supposedly good at hiding cold
spots), is not the same badly soiled rug on Hagar’s makeshift trailer
porch, is it?

It seems the pro-GWs (anti-AGWs) want the rest of us to believe that
it’s all perfectly natural and somehow automatically taking care of
us, regardless of whatever 7+ billion humans has done in the past,
current or future. Hagar has been suggesting that spots of unusually
cold temperatures and whatever compacted snow producing glacial
buildups are being systematically excluded or obfuscated by those in
favor of the AGW theory. However, those multiple hot spots seem to be
outnumbering the cold spots, not only by size but via duration. I
take it that our Hagar and other GWs in perpetual denial don’t buy
into any part of the AGW that's suggesting .58 w/m2 of our global
energy as any budget imbalance.

GW and AGW obfuscation:, and the usual denial of being in denial works
every time, as well as quantitative physics that interact with one
another but not always for the greater good is what seems to get

So, go right ahead and specify or declare what scientific quantitative
part of the estimated .58 w/m2 or 296 TW worth of global thermal
imbalance are you buying or not buying into?

296 TW of AGW (42.3 kw/person) doesn’t seem so bad, unless your local
area drought and/or weather/storm extremes are either draining your
bank account or otherwise killing you.

I would actually doubt that any 42 ppm reduction in CO2 by itself can
cancel out the .58 w/m2 of global energy imbalance, especially when so
much of the global imbalance of 296 TW isn’t strictly CO2 related.
However, if we can manage to cut the global CO2 by an average of 42
ppm, it stands to good reason that many other reductions in our soot,
CO, NOx, CH4 and a host of other released elements (including helium)
is going to get reduced at the same time. The accumulative affect is
going to be positive and otherwise beneficial, even if it only
accomplishes a 10% improvement (.058 W/m2), but none the less it's
certainly a terrific start in the right direction.

Actually, a mostly ice-free Greenland isn’t such a bad idea,
considering how much higher above ocean levels that little continent
gets, and the terrific exposed area of dry land becomes habitable,
with no shortages of inland fresh water. Importing a million trees
per year would be another good thing, along with topsoils for those
and everything else to grow from. With any luck, Greenland could
become the new Eden for us.

Obviously the rich and powerful could care less how much climate
change or weather severity (hot, cold, wet or stormy) is taking place,
because they'll always fully insured and get to relocate as often and
If there were to be a selection of 100 human species or variants of
five million each, would this offer sufficient biological diversity to
insure our perpetual survival?

Isn’t sustaining the widest possible diversity of terrestrial life
kind of good biodiversity insurance against our extinction?

Is it imperative that we all think exactly alike, just so that
rednecks like our Hagar and other FUD-masters can sleep at night?

For once I agree with you ... but the present warming trend started after
the Little ice-age ended, which was somewhere around the early 1800s.
No cars, few trains, a little whale oil or vegetable oil was burned, but
no gasoline, no piston engines or jet engines, no power plants, wood
was the main heating source with coal a close second.
So, why did it get warmer, GuthBall, can you explain that to me ???
Also, since you perceive yourself the master of flaunting numbers,
how much CO2 id belched by volcanoes and the 10,000 plus
oceanic thermal vents, aka Smokers, compared to human activity.
So even if we all moved into caves, it wouldn't solve anything. The
planet is not made for almost 7 Billion people, multiplying like

42 KW per person seems to include a tad bit of excessive energy
wastage, especially when most of that energy is hydrocarbon derived.
I bet you have no idea as to how much coal that humans ignited is
currently burning underground.

Add it all up and try to be all-inclusive about all the elements
related to hydrocarbon usage. It's perfectly clear that we modern
humans have easily contributed those 42 ppm of CO2.

-

Ice melts and land erodes or migrates together, although for every 2
km3 of melted ice there’s perhaps only one km3 of eroded soil that’s
going into the drink. The other contributing factor of rising ocean
levels is the fact as the Greenland ice melts and offloads, it allows
the bedrock of Greenland to float higher, and that too as a solid
volume displaces our oceans.

There's simply lots of renewable energy that's relatively clean,
failsafe and doesn't create CO2, SO2, CO, NOx and otherwise disperse a
slew of other nasty toxins, as well as not releasing precious helium,
but those options are not nearly as profitable nor worth going to war
over. There’s also numerous methods of utilizing our energy a whole
lot more efficiently and making it more reliable at the same time.
For some reason Steven Chu and others of our previous, current and
future administrations do not feel the need nor having any personal
motives for changing a damn thing.

Global CO2 is more of an indicator rather than any singular cause of
AGW, just like smoke or soot is a good indicator of fire.

Solar variations are truly minimal, whereas the end result of whatever
internal fusion within our sun (regardless of the internal time delay
from start to exit) is still going to become the hot surface or
photosphere radiated energy, and a great deal of science has long
since proven when the sun has been measurably hotter or cooler, as
CO, NOx, SO2, CH4 and a host of other released elements (including
helium) is going to get reduced at the same time. The accumulative
affect is going to be positive and otherwise beneficial to all known
forms of life, even terrific if it only accomplishes a 10% improvement
(.058 W/m2 or 29.6 TW), but none the less it's certainly a terrific
start in the right direction.

Actually, a mostly ice-free Greenland isn’t such a bad idea,
considering how much higher above ocean levels that little continent
gets, and the terrific exposed area of dry land becomes habitable,
with no shortages of inland fresh water. Importing a million trees
per year would be another good thing, along with topsoils for those
and everything else to grow from. With any luck, Greenland could
become the new Eden for us.

Greenland with another 50% loss of ice (-1.45e18 kg and say exposing
another 25% of its continent as ice-free land, worthy of 5e11 m2),
should actually turn out as being a very good place to live. As is,
Greenland is only 19% ice-free, or 4.1e11 m2 out of 2.166e12 m2,
although most of that ice-free land isn’t desirable to live on.
However, together that’s 9.1e11 m2 of ice-free land, with unlimited
hydroelectric and all the fresh water you could possibly want (after
exporting more than half of the 365e9 gallons of ice and compacted
snow melt per year, at the wholesale value of $1/gallon).

Outdated science: “Greenland's ice-free area increased by 16 percent
between 1979 and 2002” is a rate of roughly 0.7%/year, which by now
has likely increased to near 1%/year.

Btw; ice cores of Greenland’s compacted snow which becomes ice seem
to also track our industrial use of lead. Obviously even such heavy
elements of metallicity do carry themselves into the atmosphere, and
return to the surface as precipitation or snow.

Most of us are not saying the sun is entirely out of the picture.
What we're saying is that it's not the primary nor much less singular
cause of this most recent trend.

My position is that we do not fully understand the complex and
chaotic systems that affect climate on a global scale.

So I *do* admit that I don't know.

Point well put. However, it is a known fact that drought cycles follow
severe solar flare activity. The reason I put up a new greenhouse on
the property is because of this fact. It is estimated that the
current solar cycle which will peak between 2012-2014 will cause
worldwide drought peaking in 2024 and extend approximately another 4
+years.

Whatever the reason is for this warming trend or what science proposes
as a remedy the Sun rules the show. Future wars will be over food
and water. And you can blame the Sun.

The average of 42 kw per person is perhaps an all-inclusive factor of
global thermal imbalance which includes the extra solar benefit
derived from the added 42 ppm of CO2, plus from any number of other
elements we mange to put into our atmosphere (including h2o). We
certainty can't exclude the global dimming that comes along for the
ride.

I've read some magazine articles recently about a form of algae that
can produce a high output of very clean hydrocarbons that can be
refined into diesel fuel. These algae can be grown in reservoirs such
as municipal sewage lagoons and swamp areas. Some claims were that an
abundance of very clean, high grade diesel could be produced with no
negative side effects and a lot of beneficial side effects such as
sewage processing. Has anyone here heard or read anything on this?

That's all well and good, but what we need NOW is power.
Lots and lots of power. Wind, solar, etc. are fine, but
we can't wait until these are brought online. We need at
least 50 new nuke plants in the next decade or two.

WE should NEVER have to conserve.

Your infomercial is noted, but where's the original science?

Actually, in reply to "vtcapo", the only shortages of food and water
are those being contrived and/or intentionally interfered with, so as
to influence the global inflation and/or insure the artificial
scarcity on such items as food and water. We have had the technology
to prevent most shortages of food and water, so why are we preventing
it by multiple means or allowing others to prevent those solutions?

Isn't the key element that's necessary for the survival of humanity,
having cheap and reliable energy?

I stand corrected and agree that “drought cycles are NOT climate; and
they are not a part of the decades 
long global warming.” But the
drought cycles ARE caused by the sun. This is my chief concern
because it is forecasted for the immediate future. Climate change and
its ramifications are beyond my control to mitigate because of the
politics involved. However, severe drought if you know it is coming
can be prepared for.

And that’s what I’m doing….

60+ million people under severe drought conditions now as we speak and
more severe conditions forecasted does not seem to me to be contrived
in any way shape or form.

AGW is contrived, by way of allowing as much hydrocarbons to get
consumed as possible, and whenever possible to fight over it. Wars
seldom act as a cooling trend.

Exactly, it's Big Energy or Big Oil telling our governments whatever
they can or can not do.

Storage of fresh water is technically quite doable. A few million
gallons stored here and there is certainly within modern technology to
resolve. There are spare/surplus single hull tankers that can safely
pack upwards of 50 million gallons each.

Mokenergy can distil as many million gallons from seawater as you
need, using solar energy none the less.

Sure thing, but without reliably cheap energy (especially when it's
failsafe), even the intelligence of Einstein would be screwed.

Thorium as a Secure Nuclear Fuel Alternative / Journal of Energy
Security

http://www.ensec.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=187%3athorium-as-a-secure-nuclear-fuel-alternative&catid=94:0409content&Itemid=342

“Thorium is not new technology, but rather, it is as old as the
nuclear age itself, with research ongoing since its inception. The
first nuclear reactors in America and Russia were fuelled by thorium.
It was then dismissed by policy-makers – the key reason being that the
thorium fuel cycle provides no opportunity for obtaining bomb
materials. The 21st Century is a different era than the Cold War
era. The Obama Administration has recently announced its goal to rid
the entire world of nuclear weapons while it must confront both energy
and environmental crises. Fossil fuels are expensive and experience
wildly volatile price fluctuations. Uranium is in dangerously short
supply. The world was not ready for thorium in the 1950s. Thorium
could not be more appropriate now.”

Thorium is still the most failsafe nuclear energy amplifier, and it’s
rather abundant, cheap to obtain, already at 100% purity as is, and
it’s fission can be fully controlled on demand. Once spent, with
minimal processing, it’s either reusable as is or nearly daycare
approved for sandbox use.

Our resident rednecks and their public-funded army of brown-nosed
clowns, minions and FUD-masters are of course hired and instructed to
topic/author stalk and trash or discredit anyone suggesting the better
alternatives for using thorium as reactor fuel. We’re being duped
into believing that only uranium and MOX fuel reactors are the way to
go, as we’ll as we get to pay for everything at least ten fold greater
cost than using thorium.

it is really very simple, why "teh data" are inadequate, because

There are systems and facilities in place to handle it.

Again,we can concentrate the nuke waste in a few spots,
or we can continue to just heave our coal and oil waste
