Look to Mars for the truth on global warming

The Deniers -- Part IX [of Dr Solomon's book]

Lawrence Solomon, Financial Post
Published: Friday, February 02, 2007

Climate change is a much, much bigger issue than the public,
politicians, and even the most alarmed environmentalists realize.
Global warming extends to Mars, where the polar ice cap is shrinking,
where deep gullies in the landscape are now laid bare, and where the
climate is the warmest it has been in decades or centuries.

"One explanation could be that Mars is just coming out of an ice age,"
NASA scientist William Feldman speculated after the agency's Mars
Odyssey completed its first Martian year of data collection. "In some
low-latitude areas, the ice has already dissipated." With each passing
year more and more evidence arises of the dramatic changes occurring
on the only planet on the solar system, apart from Earth, to give up
its climate secrets.

NASA's findings in space come as no surprise to Dr. Habibullo
Abdussamatov at Saint Petersburg's Pulkovo Astronomical Observatory.
Pulkovo -- at the pinnacle of Russia's space-oriented scientific
establishment -- is one of the world's best equipped observatories and
has been since its founding in 1839. Heading Pulkovo's space research
laboratory is Dr. Abdussamatov, one of the world's chief critics of
the theory that man-made carbon dioxide emissions create a greenhouse
effect, leading to global warming.

"Mars has global warming, but without a greenhouse and without the
participation of Martians," he told me. "These parallel global
warmings -- observed simultaneously on Mars and on Earth -- can only
be a straightline consequence of the effect of the one same factor: a
long-time change in solar irradiance."

The sun's increased irradiance over the last century, not C02
emissions, is responsible for the global warming we're seeing, says
the celebrated scientist, and this solar irradiance also explains the
great volume of C02 emissions.

"It is no secret that increased solar irradiance warms Earth's oceans,
which then triggers the emission of large amounts of carbon dioxide
into the atmosphere. So the common view that man's industrial activity
is a deciding factor in global warming has emerged from a
misinterpretation of cause and effect relations."

Dr. Abdussamatov goes further, debunking the very notion of a
greenhouse effect. "Ascribing 'greenhouse' effect properties to the
Earth's atmosphere is not scientifically substantiated," he maintains.
"Heated greenhouse gases, which become lighter as a result of
expansion, ascend to the atmosphere only to give the absorbed heat
away."

The real news from Saint Petersburg -- demonstrated by cooling that is
occurring on the upper layers of the world's oceans -- is that Earth
has hit its temperature ceiling. Solar irradiance has begun to fall,
ushering in a protracted cooling period beginning in 2012 to 2015. The
depth of the decline in solar irradiance reaching Earth will occur
around 2040, and "will inevitably lead to a deep freeze around
2055-60" lasting some 50 years, after which temperatures will go up
again.

Because of the scientific significance of this period of global
cooling that we're about to enter, the Russian and Ukrainian space
agencies, under Dr. Abdussamatov's leadership, have launched a joint
project to determine the time and extent of the global cooling at mid-
century. The project, dubbed Astrometry and given priority space-
experiment status on the Russian portion of the International Space
Station, will marshal the resources of spacecraft manufacturer
Energia, several Russian research and production centers, and the main
observatory of Ukraine's Academy of Sciences. By late next year,
scientific equipment will have been installed in a space-station
module and by early 2009, Dr. Abdussamatov's space team will be
conducting a regular survey of the sun.

With the data, the project will help mankind cope with a century of
falling temperatures, during which we will enter a mini ice age.

"There is no need for the Kyoto Protocol now. It does not have to come
into force until at least 100 years from no w," Dr. Abdussamatov
concluded. "A global freeze will come about regardless of whether or
not industrialized countries put a cap on their greenhouse- gas
emissions."

Another denialist rant..

You first, where are your cites???

I've provided plenty of links to authoritative sources in my
recent posts. No need to repeat them here when Leonard just trolls on
in multiple postings over the same subject matter with dubious
associations.

Mars rotational axis also wobbles significantly more(~10-20x) than
earth's 1.5 degree shift, (no large moon to help stabilize mars), and
goes through 100K yr wobble cycles similar to earth's 40K yr wobble
cycle.

I know the available data on Mars climate is insufficient, what does
exist does not support a GW linkage between the two planets.

I.E.. Mars has less than 1/200th of earth's atmospheric mass.. no
large oceans of water to mitigate thermal swings, no significant
change in solar output in the last 60 years (slight decrease), etc.
Thousands of published peer reviewed scientists who contradict his
claims.


In retrospect, Dr. Abdussamatov has permanently damaged his scientific
integrity as an honest researcher.

Russia is major fossil fuel exporter, they wish to remain in that
position for a long time. Efforts to mitigate AGW would undercut
earnings for Russia's largest and most profitable state owned
industries. Guess who writes Dr. Abdussamatov paychecks??

lemme guess. you were the kid in tenth grade who could never

Two spellings, two meanings. It's pretty clear in its presentation.
Click on one of the two versions "its" or "it's", to go to the
corresponding meaning.

Grammar isn't that all important in ngs. Trying to cover up a mistake is.

Learn how to read a dictionary for God's sake.

its is the possessive form of the pronoun 'it'.

it's is the contraction of 'it is' or 'it has'

If you click on the various forms shown in your own cite, you would have
read that.

I don't. I, however, do attempt to better the world by pointing out
the correct use of "its" and "it's". This error is so everywhere
that I see it in online newspapers. People just don't know the
rule. It's a good thing to assist them. It has nothing to do with
CO2.

So you claim you don't spellflame people in the same
notestream where you are posting a spelling flame.

Could you be a bigger hypocrite if you tried?

Correcting an error without any comment in order to better mankind
is not a spell flame. My original comment doesn't say that I never
spell flame though, it is the present tense used in the habitual
aspect. Obama might say, "He don' be spell flamin'".

I'm not being hypocritical at all.
