Global Warming, er Climate Change is a National Security Threat

Since I have no respect for the RNC, it doesn't matter to me what insurance companies do to them.


 

You should read some of the actual science on the topic, rather than Salon.com and The Guardian.

From my link:


 

Quote: 

 

The energy budget of the most recent decade does, however, indicate a lower range of values for the more policy-relevant transient climate response (the temperature increase at the point of doubling of the atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> concentration following a linear ramp of increasing greenhouse gas forcing) than the range obtained by either analysing the energy budget of earlier decades or current climate model simulations.
 

Translating that into English, it says that the temperature increase from CO2 based on actual measurements is less that previous estimates based on theory. It doesn't say how much less in the abstract, but it's about half. So based on the current 'consensus science' the predictions of future climate change are much less dire, which is what I've been saying all along.


 

That goes along with your link which states that 'more than half' (51% ?) of the warming since 1950 is from humans, leaving a lot of the warming due to other causes. That also makes sense with what we've observed, since an 18 year pause proves that other factors are at least as strong as CO2 in changing the global temperature.

Yea, that's not really what it says but whatever man. It is interesting to me that you will quote NASA's publications when you feel you can misconstrue the science to your own agenda, but refuse to agree to their official position on the subject. Rather convenient.

It is exactly what is says. I quoted a source you foolishly trust to make my point and you complain about it?


 

In any case they were not NASA publications. They were publications from outsiders that the NASA Global Warming Climate Change group chose to post on their website.

I can't believe that this thread is still "alive".  It's not like it deals with anything that is really important.

Because we all know that salon.com is "real news" just like global warming climate change is real.

Times are a changin' for sure. Britain is talking about ending all subsidies for 'renewable energy.' Australia has ended its carbon tax and its wind farm subsidies.


 

And still, almost no one is pushing for expanding the one proven low-cost carbon-free energy source.

Interesting half-truth about Britain's new policy.


Here's the whole story:

As I assumed, the subsidies are being turned off simply because the industry can now support itself.
