GW NUTS DON’T HAVE TO WORRY. JUST WAIT FOR THE NEXT VOLCANIC ERUPTION.
VOLCANOES SPEW MUCH MORE CO2 THAN HUMANS.
VOLCANOES HAVE THE BIGGEST AFFECT ON CLIMATE CHANGE.
The increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere
are not the only factors influencing climate. Explosive volcanic
eruptions can inject enormous amounts of sulfur dioxide and ash into
the atmosphere. Aerosol particles injected into the stratosphere can
result in climate changes lasting up to several years. Observed
climatic responses to the Mt. Pinatubo eruption have included
tropospheric cooling, stratospheric warming, and an overall drop of
about 0.5°C in the global average surface temperature.
The IPCC base their whole theory of global warming on a global
temperature rise of .4 degrees C over a period of five decades and are
blaming it on the human release of aerosol gases and the trace gas
CO2. Do you see the disparity here?
“There are not yet comprehensive estimates of how the effects of
changes in aerosol concentrations, changes in land cover and land use,
and changes in concentrations of greenhouse gases will combine with
natural influences to alter the global climate. Examination of the
temperature record of the last 100 years does show a warming of about
0.5°C, only temporarily reversed recently by the volcanic influence of
Mt. Pinatubo, suggesting that the enhanced greenhouse effect is
exerting the primary influence. The fact that this warming is somewhat
less and different in timing than that predicted by computer models
emphasizes the need for continuing research directed toward gaining a
better understanding of both human and natural influences such as
solar variability on the climate system.” –Global Cooling Google

“It is estimated that when Mount Pinatubo erupted the ash spread in
the upper atmosphere lowering global temperatures .5 degrees C. Mount
Pinatubo, active volcano in the Philippines, in the central part of
the island of Luzon, at the juncture of Tarlac, Zambales, and Pampanga
provinces. Mount Pinatubo is almost 90 km (55 mi) north of Manila and
about 24 km (about 16 mi) east of Angeles, where the United States Air
Force Base known as the Clark Air Base was located. Until 1991, Mount
Pinatubo was classified as inactive because it had been dormant for at
least 600 years. In June and July of that year, the volcano erupted
several times, throwing millions of tons of ash and other volcanic
material over 15,000 m (almost 50,000 ft) high into the atmosphere.
Much of this volcanic material spread around the world in the upper
atmosphere. Locally, the ash reached a depth of more than 3 m (10 ft).
Heavy tropical rains turned the ash to mud and triggered massive
mudslides. By late August 1991 it was estimated that 550 people had
died because of the eruption and its aftermath. In addition, more than
650,000 people had lost their livelihood, and 100,000 hectares (almost
250,000 acres) of agricultural land had been devastated. The ash
covered nearby Clark Air Base and sped up the U.S. pullout from Clark,
which was until 1991 one of the largest U.S. Air Force bases outside
of the United States. Mount Pinatubo erupted again in August 1992,
causing more destruction. Mount Pinatubo is 1,780 m (5,840 ft) high.

“Krakatau, also Krakatoa or Rakata, small volcanic island,
southwestern Indonesia, in the Sunda Strait, between Java and Sumatra.
Until the night of August 26-27, 1883, Krakatau had an area of 47 sq
km (18 sq mi); at that time, a volcanic eruption and its consequent
explosions destroyed most of the island, so the present area is only
15 sq km (6 sq mi). The eruption produced huge ocean waves called
tsunamis that reached an estimated height of 30 m (100 ft) and
traveled 13,000 km (8,000 mi); these waves drowned about 34,000 people
along the coasts of Java and Sumatra and destroyed incalculable
amounts of property. In addition, pyroclastic flows of hot volcanic
ash traveled more than 40 km (25 mi) across the surface of the sea and
fatally burned at least 2,000 people. An explosion in the eruption
series produced one of the loudest noises in history; it was heard at
a distance of 4,800 km (3,000 mi). The material ejected was in the
form of fine dust, which was diffused by aerial currents throughout
the upper atmosphere; for three years thereafter, observers all over
the world reported brilliant colorations of sunrise and sunset, caused
by the refraction of the rays of the sun by these tiny particles. The
island displayed volcanic activity again in 1927, and the inhabitants
were evacuated; the island is now uninhabited. Microsoft ® Encarta ®

When Novarupta erupted making a crater three miles wide it dumped six-
feet of ash on Kodiak Island and over a foot of ash on the city of
Anchorage Alaska 250 miles to the Northeast lowering global
temperatures three degrees. It too lowered global temperatures .5
degrees C.
Katmai National Park and Preserve, southwestern Alaska, established as
a national monument 1918, as a national park 1980. Located on the
northeastern coast of the Alaska Peninsula, the park contains Katmai
Volcano (2,047 m/6,716 ft), Novarupta Volcano, and the Valley of Ten
Thousand Smokes. In June 1912 the newly formed Novarupta erupted
violently, blowing off the entire mountaintop and showering volcanic
ash over Kodiak Island and much of the Alaska mainland. The eruption
formed the ash-filled Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes and probably
drained molten material from beneath the peak of nearby Katmai,
causing the collapse of its top and forming a large crater. When a
National Geographic Society expedition discovered the valley in 1916,
they found numerous fumaroles (vents issuing gases and steam), only a
few of which remain. Katmai crater, about 5 km (about 3 mi) wide and
about 1,130 m (about 3,700 ft) deep, is lined with glaciers, some of
which flow into the blue-green lake on its floor.

Volcanoes release more CO2 than humans ever could! 90% of what comes
out of volcanoes is CO2 and the climate gets cold afterwards!
Again, the IPCC bases their whole theory of global warming on a global
temperature rise of .4 degrees C over five decades and are blaming it
on the human release of aerosol gases and the trace gas .033% CO2.
Argon from the decay of potassium isotopes in the rocks makes up 1% of
our atmosphere. Shouldn’t the GW nuts be using carbon fuels to pump
argon underground? Do you see the disparity here? The temperature on
Earth has steadily been getting warmer as it recovers from the Little
Ice Age and numerous volcanic eruptions that have been keeping the
climate cold.
The present average temperature on earth is 32 degrees F. During all
past geologic ages when the coal, oil and limestone were gown from CO2
the temperature on Earth was 50 to 60 degrees F.
Increasing the plant food CO2 and melting glaciers makes more land
available for people to live and grow food.
