WAMP's Fallacies on Conscious AI & Climate Change

Definition: WAMP-the-Ingrate = Western Acade-Media Pagan(ism), including Hollywood, the stealing beneficiary of the Augustinian Trust.
WAMP’s recent publications are “typical” logical fallacies of misrepresentation of facts, very subtle on both AI and sea level rising (See below).
A. Climate Change (Climate Science is non-existent, Meteorology exists)
- A single volcanic eruption, lasting only hours, might add many millions of tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere--more than any than human activity. About 550 known active volcanoes contributes about 117 million tons per year. This plus other volcanisms are estimated to emit about 645 million tons of CO2 per year. Ethan Siegel a science contributor of Forbes omits the total for say at least 5000 years of volcanisms, totaling 3,225 billion tons of CO2. (ignoring evolutionary estimates of several billion years based on wrong assumptions, inter alia, of initial content of decay products in radioactivity!) Compare this to humanity's 29 billion tons per year multiplied by about 50 years equaling 1,450 billion tons.
The global Marxist climatology pundits do not and cannot determine how much CO2 will be needed to make the well-known benign and useful “greenhouse effect” dangerous

2 . For every Carbon atom (atomic mass=12) introduced, two Oxygen atoms (atomic mas = 16 each) are removed from the atmosphere. The WAMP has not shown any panic so far over oxygen depletion which is more life threatening than green house warming which has many benefits for the biosphere (plants favor both CO2 and warming.
3 . About 80% of icebergs are under water and have already displaced the sea level. About 1.7 % of the Earth's water is locked in ice, When ice melts there is 9-10% less volume; Why do the WAMP alarmists proclaim that the melting ice will raise sea levels? Aa floating iceberg causes no effect on the sea level.
4 . 70% of Earth is water while about 30% is land (US Geological Society). So, the extra water to raise the sea level to any height has to come from some extra-terrestrial or subterranean sources.
B . Consciousness.
There is no such thing as “ slight consciousness”. All sentience or consciousness is “limited”, i.e. finite. Self-awareness is an important component of all awareness (consciousness). No robot is self-aware. For science today the only candidate matter available for an invisible but REAL intelligent physical body, is bio dark-matter with its computational bio dark-matter chemistries (i.e. spin governed configurational chemical bonds). The resonant light-matter (electric, entropic, decaying) and bio dark-matter (nonelectric, nonentropic, enduring) twins cocreated at the moment of conception form the basis of “self-consciousness. Resonance is rudimentary recognition. The bio dark-matter twin needs to be awakened by an external POWER.

NASA. 2-17-22.This report is the update to a 2017 report and it forecasts sea levels all the way to 2150. However, this is the first time that the report has projected sea levels just 30 years into the future; earlier reports have only examined the effects over longer timescales… "This report is a wake up call for the United States…It's going to take all of us — government, businesses, academia, community citizens — to make a difference in the future."
- https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/artificial-intelligence-may-already-be-slightly-conscious-ai-scientists-warn/ MIT researcher Tamay Besiroglu joined OpenAI cofounder Ilya Sutskever in warning that some machine learning AI may have achieved a limited form of sentience, sparking debate among neuroscientists and AI researchers. The comment drew a strong response from leaders in the field, including Professor Murray Shanahan from Imperial College London, who said: “In the same sense that it may be that a large field of wheat is slightly pasta.”

Just a comment.
I gather that all the raised beaches and disappearing beaches are largely due to the weight of the ice shifting, a bit like a sea saw. And there is quite a lot of water still locked up and waiting to be released in antarctica and the himalayas.
The antarctic is actually quite active volcanically, you can swim in some parts of it because of the hot springs [because David has]. If that really got going there'd be a tidal wave the size of the one that made the north sea [or more]. South america would get a rare old washing.
We went to Mull once. The stepped beaches there are truly amazing, hundreds of feet high, it may have been a slow bounce but it certainly was a big bounce. It may not have been that slow of course.......
For anyone interested Serge is still alive, thank God.
