The causes of minor variations
of the average temperature --
(up or down one degree C.,
over one or two centuries),
-- are a scientific mystery.
Fortunately, small changes
of the average temperature,
whether one degree or two,
are harmless.
The real harm is indirect,
caused by government policy
overreactions to wild guesses
of the future climate,
made by smarmy leftist
government bureaucrats
with science degrees,
whose climate predictions
have been very wrong
for the past 30 years !
We really do not know
the actual influence
of carbon dioxide
on Earth's climate.
But we can estimate
a worst case warming
assumption for CO2:
If we assume
ALL the warming since 1850
was caused ONLY by CO2,
then that WORST CASE
CO2 warming estimate
tells us the CO2 greenhouse effect,
at worst, would be harmless
in the long run !
We really don't know much
about the causes of climate
change ... even though a lot
of politicians, left wing activists,
and government bureaucrats
who happen to have science degrees,
falsely claim to know what the climate
will be like in 100 years ... and in their
devious minds, the future climate
will be a disaster, unless people
do everything they say now,
without question !
I don't take advice from power
hungry leftists -- this blog is a
public service to refute leftist
scaremongering about fossil fuels
and carbon dioxide.
Based on real science,
which includes thousands
of plant growth experiments,
(rather than the usual
climate junk science
-- the wrong wild guesses
of the future climate),
anyone with sense
would want MORE CO2
in the atmosphere,
to accelerate the growth
of plants used for food
by humans and animals,
and "green" the Earth.
If a side effect of more CO2
in the air is nighttime warming
from a greenhouse effect,
then it will be mild warming,
that will mainly affect
the colder latitudes,
where the warmer nights
will be celebrated !
Note:
That is NOT what has
actually happened since 1975 --
Expected Arctic warming happened,
but expected Antarctica warming
did not happen ...
which could mean Arctic warming
was NOT caused by
a greenhouse effect from CO2.
Averaging Arctic and Antarctica
temperatures by using
a global average temperature,
hides the important details
that I just mentioned,
so 'warmists' always do that !
If you focus ONLY on
the global average temperature:
The actual warming since 1940
(considered to be the beginning
of significant man made CO2
emissions) was mild --
and only about one-third
of the warming predicted
by government bureaucrats
and their computer games !
Question:
Why do the bureaucrats
keep forecasting so much
global warming, when
for the past 30 years,
the actual warming was
so much less,
and far from "global" ?
Answer:
Because they can,
and no one in the
mainstream media
(95% leftist)
will ever point out
their inaccurate predictions
in the past 30 years !
Junk climate science,
supported by mainstream
media parrots, have created
a fake climate change crisis.
