I saw this guy talking about Lonrenz's work - very good lecture, also. I know a bit about dynamic control theory and when people say "but we can't predict the climate 100 years from now!" I reply "and aren't you worried we can't predict? And we really can't predict - what we can tell is it is becoming unstable and it will go to another stability but we don't know what conditions there will be."

The world leaders and activists who attended the UN Climate Summit in Paris last December are all about saving the world, saving the environment, right? That’s the standard narrative, isn’t it? Well, critics, ourselves included, have insisted that the UN climate agenda is really about power and wealth. More precisely, it is about getting the power to redistribute global wealth - through carbon taxes, carbon pricing, carbon trading, and carbon regulation, etc. But don’t take our word for it; the top climateers have said so themselves. Take, for instance, Dr. Ottmar Edenhoefer - not exactly a household name in America, however, Dr. Edenhofer is a big name in climate policy circles. He says, “We redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy.” From 2008 to 2015 Dr. Edenhofer was co-chair of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change working group on "Mitigation of Climate Change." He is also deputy director and chief economist of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany, one of the climate centers helping write climate policy for the EU, the UN, and the World Bank, and one of the most-cited sources on climate in the mainstream media. During an interview in 2010, Dr. Edenhofer candidly declared, “One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with the environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole.” And, he added this shocking admission: “We redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy.” www.thenewamerican.com/tech/environment/item/22841-what-s-the-real-agenda-behind-climate-change-alarmism

@bulletsholes Correct.We're not threatened by a supposed human-caused change in climate that is not happening. We are threatened existentially by the West's continued warmongering for control of resources and the suppression/elimination of a fair alternative to the rule of the 1%. The fake climate change story is a means of distracting our attention from the real threats - and of making us even more reliant on governments ... to solve a non-existent problem.

Great choice of art work for the equation! BTW, the guy who created the "upside-down" triangle (the Nabla operator) was an electric engineer who in the early 20th century invented the Laplace Transform for the impulse and step functions but like all good engineers he never bother to prove them - he tested three time and they worked ... therefore there was no need to prove. (he actually would always point out that there was no proof. Proofs were acheived through two different methods in the late 50s and early 70s). He was Oliver Heavside and the Nabla operator is what made Maxwell's equation to fit on a t-shirt and still be readable.

The distinction, excellently illustrated, between the problems presented by the Lorenz equations and by the Navier-Stokes equations is a vital conceptual aid to those who lack the mathematical background to find their own way. He convinced me that the issues raised by the Lorenz equations (chaotic systems) are not fatal to climate prediction efforts. This represents a change of mind for me. However, the Navier-Stokes problem remains, and I'm less clear that the new breed of supercomputers will be adequate to the task of sufficiently resolving the remaining uncertainties. No supercomputer could even theoretically provide a full solution to predicting the climate down to the quantum scale. And how can we know that such hyper-resolution is unnecessary for the purpose of accurate long term climate prediction? He assumes (but doesn't cite evidence or really explain) that the exa-flop class, now pending, will clarify the last major outstanding question in climate prediction.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:18 "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Some day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. If you don't confess that until after your death then you'll spend eternity in torment (where the fire is not quenched).

A great lecture. It pleases me a lot. Certain variables are not addressed in the analysis which complicate understanding climate dynamics. Variability in solar radiance has substantial influence. The sun is not constant. Orbital dynamics is also not considered. The earths orbit is continuously changing due to gravitational influences of other planets. Distance to heat source must affect climate. The time frame of the analysis is also very limited, speaking as a geologist. Where I live there was 2000 feet of ice during the height of the last glaciation event. I am truly grateful for global warming because I love my Canadian home. That warming event is probably still ongoing. The retreat of the glaciers has been continuous since before humans were producing so much CO2. The unstoppable movement of continents also changes climate dramatically for many reasons other than CO2 content of the atmosphere. Before the last major glaciation there was no ice at the south pole and the northern islands of Canada had palm trees and crocodiles. Fossils don't lie. Life flourished very nicely at that time. The truth is that earth's climate is highly variable for many reasons we cannot control. The current warming quite likely would occur as they are, even if no people were on earth at all. Humanity does appear to want very badly to control everything. I don't think it is possible. Moreover, the next asteroid impact will erase any efforts we attempt to implement. Take a deep breath. Roll the dice and enjoy the ride. Remember that all the carbonate rocks in the Rockies, the alps and the Himalayas used to be atmospheric CO2.

we are talking about the noise-floor here. the only way to penetrate that is though convergence. You cannot do convergence without adaptation. Convergence requires a "self" around which such convergence can happen. No kind of computer can do that until we allow it to have a "self". Here is the Rubicon. to grant our tools the freedom of self-hood. Who is ready to do that? I am sure there are some.

there is something i have asked before about climate models,that is the refrigeration affect ,of water on changing state from liquid to gas, this uses huge amounts of energy., if a model does not include this nett energy usage then it will be a lot less accurate. to condense again it will release energy high in the atmosphere which can be raidiated outwards much easier and quicker. this all results in a negative feedback.

@ 55:03 *"Are there precedents for energy efficient imprecise supercomputing?" Yes, quantum physics!* According to *Anton Zeilinger,* (an Austrian quantum physicist who in 2008 received the Inaugural Isaac Newton Medal of the Institute of Physics, the fundamental reason for Quantum Entanglement and the Uncertainty Principle is that any particle or quantum system can only carry a certain amount of information (!). So our experiment "asks/dedects" exact information about the momentum, all information of its position is not merely undetectable, but really ceases to exist at all, because *such a small system, as small as a single quantum, can only carry one bit of information.* This might also hint to what that boy tried to formulate: *"What if Nature itself solves Navier Stokes in smallest scales, by introducing a Quantum cutoff? "* Zeilinger has proposed to theoretical physicists 12 years ago to play around with the hypothesis, that energy and information might be directly equivalent on a very fundamental basis. He himself has made hundreds of experiments and much praised progress in this direction. Strangely, neither Mathmaticians dealing with Navier Stokes EQ, nor Quantum Physicists are taking this serious enough.

It's important to understand what is "air humidity" - it's not how much water is dissolved in the athmophere! It's a number from 0 to 100% and it's the percentage of water molecules that go from the athosphere to to a body of water in relation to the number of molecules that leave the body of water. Another important point is that the solubility of water in the atmosphere increases with the temperature - that means the air gets dryer even if the same mass of water is disolved if the temperature increases. So ... we don't contribute directly to the amount of water in the atmosphere but we contribute a lot indirectly when with the carbon we put in the atmosphere. From the point of view of electromagnetic radiation (light and heat) the humidity means nothing but the mass of water disolved in the atmosphere means everythng. He told 100 million dollars a year just to keep the machine running? The US - the country that contributed the most to the invasion of Ukraine - gave the US military-industrial complex 1000 years of Hexaflop supercomputing time since the war started. BTW, when I said "contributed" I meant "put more effort into making it happen".

Human experience (observational perspective) is the key driver for the human carbon emissions climate debacle. My unique personal experience is fairly analogous. I was a pipe fitter for natural gas distribution maintenance and repair. Underground steel pipes had rusted over decades. A leak developed. A hole was dug to initiate its mitigation. During the process of repair, my crew foreman pointed to the northwest and excitedly warned that a furious storm cell would arrive in fifteen minutes. We could envision torrential rain, golf ball sized hail, and gale force winds. "Speed up your execution or we suffer the consequences", was his quintessential suggestion . We all knew short cuts. I took them. As a consequence, fifty pounds of continuous pressured gas escaped a 30 mm hole and while cheater sparks flew, it ignited. Here I was, PPE compliant, inside a green bubble of exothermic gas combustion with the high temperature envelope only an arms length away (3650 degrees F). The approaching storm cell had instantaneously become non-threatening. Let's all surmise and discuss the intricate details of the remainder of my work day, shall we.

It seems to me that the wisest course of action is to use some of our relatively cheap fossil fuels to fund research into ways of using energy more efficiently to in turn fund the development of technologies which will allow us to adapt to climate change far better than otherwise. Given the high levels of uncertainty in the models, to put most of our eggs into the "reduce CO2" basket with the enormous costs associated, is to tie one hand behind our back whilst trying to solve the problem.

The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulate at Bergen Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds. Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coast cities uninhabitable. * * * * * * * I must apologize. I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post 96 years ago. This must all have been caused by the Model T Ford's emissions...or possibly from horse and cattle farts.

The Sun transmitts at an effective temperature of approximately 5800 K, with an emission spectrum, peaked in the central, yellow-green part of the visible spectrum. Entering Earth's atmosphere, about 55% of the incoming sunlight is infrared photons. They strike the Earth and are reradiated back out into the atmosphere in the black body temperature range of 255K. The other 45% is white light and of that, about 30% of that is reflected back into outer space, which is what you would see from outer space looking back at the Earth. That should leave about 31.5% of the total light being white, to strike the Earth and be reradiated back into the atmosphere as infrared photons. That would mean 55% infrared photons coming in and 86.5% total infrared photons going out. As we increase secondary greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, we block more incoming infrared photons, slightly cooling off the planet. Being there are more outgoing infrared photons than incoming, we should trap more outgoing infrared photons than reflect incoming photons. That being said, all things being equal, the planet must heat.

Except co2 itself has a lower specific energy retension and lower specific heat index meaning added to a nitrogen atmosphere at less then 1 % means cool not warm ? Right ? Plus co2 added to nitrogen increase the opacity meaning more photons are kept from entering in the first place right meaning again cooler ? Additionally as far as i can tell atmospheric insulation is primarily determined by density and water, water vapor is far more prevalent and insulating. So if the laws of gases and thermodynamics haven't been over turned. Wouldn't pulling co2 out of the air. Cause the air to actually... get slightly more warmer ? Doesn't seem very logical and counter arguments so far haven't been very rational or make any sense.

If there was an adequate computer model it would have a ripple effect in science and engineering and that just never happened. You would not need supercomputers to design airplanes. Also might I add: great closing to the lecture.

Tim Palmer's answer was somewhat misleading. About 75% of CO2 will go away in 20 to 200 years and a small percentage takes hundreds of thousands of years. There is already a CO2 sequestering system that works and could be scaled up inexpensively if needed.

All the old textbooks show a big bulge in the temperature graph in the 1930's and 1940's. Why has this warming been removed from the graphs in recent times? The raw unadjusted temperature data shows some warming in recent decades comparable to the warming in the 1930's and 1940's. After the data has been carefully adjusted upward it becomes the fake temperature record in this video. The satellite temperature record shows slight cooling on average since 2000. But the government graphs composed of carefully chosen and adjusted weather statiion data always show warming.

+Hazza No Ordinary World Yes, at rate of about 400 cubic km melting/Year(might be somewhat realistic estimate todays melting in Greenland) consumes equivalent amount of energy in a decade that equals about 0,3 degrees celsius warming of atmosphere(the whole mass of it), if instead same amount of energy is absorbed by the atmosphere. Of course the total net amount of worlds ice melting is more relevant number, but to give just some scale/example. Oceans been "masking" the issue partly by taking in CO2 and also heat. Backslash is certain(actually happening right now also) by many means, not only burst of heat coming out from the oceans(ecological also). Oceans omits for ex. 1000-times more capacity to absorb heat as the atmosphere. We have increased already 40% of atmospheres CO2 and CO2 as the second largest contributor to GHG-effect(total effect from all GHG:s about 33C and CO2 about 10-25% of that). Significant amount and will have both expected and unexpected(abrupt also) consequences.

Al Gore is gonna turn on the internet to control the weather. No point well made-2 major factors in the weather are the sun & the ocean. Basic concepts that are not being taught: the sun drives all climate-it provides light, warmth, & the stuff of photosynthesis. The sun emits radiation across the spectrum-most of what we receive is in visible light, specifically the indigo region. UV occurs at altitude & over large spaces of water. Dangerous x-rays are captured by the Van Allen Belts. The sun has its own weather-prominences, flares, coronal ejections, & sunspots. Sunspots are cooler regions on the sun because the magnetic field twists the solar currents around & spreads them laterally across the surface--therefore more of the other surface areas are more luminous. Oceans contribute water vapor & depict the basic difference of high pressure & low pressure. This leads to front creation & air mass composition all of which are pushed along by jet streams. Oceans are also the largest sink for co2 & absorb radiation only up to a certain depth & then it is in the aphotic zone. As the fetch circulates so do air pressure parcels & wind belts & ocean currents all of which create a routine weather pattern & a fairly typical climate of any location.

Awesome lecture. Worth listening all the way to the questions. "Climate change" is just the wrong framing though. If we pay more attention to psychology we might realise the ignorant will never take to the idea. Climate is constantly changing, so the phrase is devoid of useful content. "Global warming" is better, since on average that does have some content and information. But if the energy input from the Sun is not equally lost as radiation then the Earth would rapidly cook in a matter of years. So the real issue, the existential threat, is neither climate change nor global warming per se, it is species migration, ocean circulation, habitat changes across major zones, habitat pollutions, and mass extinctions. Once those things can be measured to have irreversibly changed beyond uncertainties, then there is something even sceptics will have to take seriously. Astoundingly, I think data on mass extinctions over a century or so is available, and is utterly shocking, and this is something that should be a major focus of public discussion and policy making.

Ok, we've shown that even super computers can't model climate effectively. The youngster asking the first question was right. By coding the program in a certain way you can solve problems with less computing power. According to the IPCC graphic, humans emit 5B tons of CO2 per year and 150B tons are emitted by natural sources per year. How does the CO2 molecule emitted by humans know it's supposed to stay in the atmosphere for 100's to 1000's of years? When the earth gets too warm, water evaporates from the surface, clouds form blocking sunlight, rain falls cooling things down. That's negative feedback, not positive feedback.

Increasing atmospheric CO2 is beneficial not harmful. CO2 is plant food, it is how living things grow. We are in a CO2 drought, dangerously close to the 'death line' of 150ppm where photosynthesis stops, and we need more of it not less. The dinosaurs enjoyed temperatures 10 degrees warmer than today, with CO2 levels around 1000-2000ppm, and they remain the most successful animals that have ever lived. In the Cambrian, 540 million years ago, CO2 was up around 7000ppm and instead of the planet boiling away, an explosion of new species appeared. CO2 does not drive temperature anyway. Temperature moves first, and 800 years later CO2 follows it, up or down. Don't believe what NASA, the NOAA or the IPCC say, they all alter observation data to deliberately produce misleading results, aimed at scaring the public and policy-makers into introducing draconian tax and energy policies that will drastically reduce your standard of living. In reality, there is no imminent 'climate catastrophe'. The polar ice sheets are increasing not decreasing. There is no catastrophic sea-level rise. The frequency and intensity of storms have been steadily falling for several decades. The oceans are not becoming more acidic, they are not acidic at all. Dying vegitation produces around 440 billion tons of CO2 a year, the oceans produce around 330 billion tons annually, animals around 150 billion tons, compared to 35 billion tons from human activity. This whole thing is the biggest deception ever purpetrated on mankind.

How can he say. near the end Q&As that a molecule of CO2 stays around for 1000's of years. He has already talked about the Carbon Cycle. CO2 cycles the C. Absorbed by plants (for example) eaten by animals, metabolised, and released, or just dies back into the soil humus layer, or the newly forming carbonate rock layer under the sea.. Who knows. The main point being that the molecule of CO2 was NEVER CREATED AT ALL!. The carbon was always there in the first place! Furthermore, as I understand it, the CO2 "window" of absorption (12 to 15 micros) is already closed. Push more CO2 into the atmosphere, but the "window" cannot close any further. It is at 100% already. 1,000 ppm won't change that! It is why farmers who can afford it build huge GREENHOUSES for heaven's sake! So, we could possibly enjoy a nice lifestyle like they did in the warm Roman Empire period. OR we could all freeze to death with malnutrition and no electricity like they did in the mini ice age 1800's. Depends on whether the CO2 alarmists get their way. How's that for chaos theory!

Wow! Soooo much missing from those models. For starters, yep, I guess you need a 'longer' wedge. Starting point does matter. Second, it's important to understand the physical properties of the different CO2 states and how those interact with H20 vapor. And most importantly, your models and theories were based on models that failed to include the major drivers of weather, accurate ocean oscillations and solar forcing especially as relates to full vertical column radiation, solar winds, sun spot activity (not just minimal impact stratospheric irradiation). I will interested to hear your theory in the future about what happened when the planet cools significantly for years, decades, or longer. Understanding geomagnetism and solar cycles, both short and long-term, and all spectra of solar radiation are indispensible in even beginning to gain a longer term understanding of how the weather might change in the near and far future. Try programming those variables into your model and see what happens. I'm sure your lecture was convincing to many, but some of us prefer prediction models that contain ALL of the critical variables. If you can't represent the weather with a reasonable degree of accuracy, best not to panic the planet. It's not acceptable to use the excuse that there isn't enough computing power. I doubt that. 5C rise is complete fantasy. And you completely left the Russian modeling off of that chart. Their modelling was MUCH more accurate in predicting the actual temperatures we have experienced because they drastically reduced the level of carbon forcing. Add all of the critical variables into the model, including the 20+% weaking of the magnetosphere and you come to one overiding conclusion: 1 Don't throw your winter boots. 2. Pray current magnesphere weaking doesn't continue at its current rate or speed up and that there are no strong MCEs. The focus, energy, and dollars would be better devoted to at least upgrading the power grid, least one of those CMEs taking out the whole system. THAT would be true chaos and within 48 hours when store shelves are empty. CO2 is an imaginary enemy. Best to direct focus and limited resources on truly urgent matters.

I have figured out the fallacy of Palmer's wedge demonstration used to shift the swings of the climate ball, with the claim that the wedge represents manmade CO2. This is another Palmer deceit. The magnets provide the energy to swing the climate ball, just as the natural climate forces provide the energy to swing the climate. One of the magnets, not the wedge, represents manmade CO2. What Palmer's wedge did was change the influence of ALL the magnets on the climate ball in a single direction and magnitude. It would correspond to changing ALL the natural forces affecting the climate in some one direction, not increasing the effect of only one of the forces, manmade CO2. Obviously, that is NOT what is happening in Earth's climate. If Palmer wanted to simulate increasing manmade CO2, he would make one of the magnets stronger. I doubt that would produce the effect he desired, which is probably why he didn't do the right thing. If he had a device with dozens of magnets, better representing the true complexity of the climate, and he increased the strength of one of the magnets to mimic manmade CO2, most likely there would no observable effect on the swinging of climate. Exactly what we actually observe in today's climate. It changes, but with no discernible relation to manmade CO2.

You are of course right ! Technically there is another problem . The magnetic pendulum is TEMPORALLY chaotic . This means that its movement is described by a finite number of non linear ODE (ordinary differential equations) and it can be shown that there are 4 fixed points (equilibriums)with equal probability because the magnets are symetrical with regard to the axis to the pendulum . By setting the wedge, the symetry is broken so that there are still 4 fixed points but the probabilities are no more equal because of the broken symetry . This is trivial undergrad mathematics . This pseudo analogy has absolutely nothing to do with climate and teaches nothing about the predictability of (probabilities) in chaotic systems . Climate is SPATIO-TEMPORALLY chaotic . This means that it is described by non linear PDE (partial differential equations) equivalent to an infinity of ODE . As there is no stable equilibrium (the system can by definition not be isothermal) , it follows that there are NO fixed points and the probabilities that the system (=pendulum) is somewhere are not known . There are also no "symetries" that could be broken by a "wedge" . A somewhat better but still wrong analogy would be to have an infinite plate with an infinity of magnets moving on the plate and a pendulum of infinite length . Then an invisible wedge is inserted somewhere but it will also move . You can observe the pendulum and make all averages you want,yet you will be unable to say whether there is a wedge or how it moved .In other words you will be unable to predict the trajectory of the pendulum what is obvious because the system is chaotic but you will also be unable to predict the probability where it stops or even IF it stops regardless whether there is a wedge or not . P.S However it is relatively easy to prove that increasing CO2 (everything else being equal !) increases temperatures . The catch is that everything is not equal so that the temperatures don't increase everywhere and all the time . There are many much stronger factors (ENSO, clouds, polar caps, volcanos, aerosols etc) which overide all the time at variable places the CO2 effect . This can be easily seen in the fact that the temperature averaged over the surface of whole globe is never constant but fluctuates up and down all the time what means that the CO2 is only a (negligible ?) part of the story .

Job 37: 9-16 NLT 9 The stormy wind comes from its chamber, and the driving winds bring the cold. 10 God's breath sends the ice, freezing wide expanses of water. 11 He loads the clouds with moisture, and they flash with his lightning. 12 The clouds churn about at his direction. They do whatever he commands throughout the earth. 13 He makes these things happen either to punish people or to show his unfailing love. 14 "Pay attention to this, Job. Stop and consider the wonderful miracles of God! 15 Do you know how God controls the storm and causes the lightning to flash from his clouds? 16 Do you understand how he moves the clouds with wonderful perfection and skill? 17 When you are sweltering in your clothes and the south wind dies down and everything is still, 18 he makes the skies reflect the heat like a bronze mirror. Can you do that? The Hebrew word for "stormy wind" is cawphah and means a hurricane.

Rev 21:10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, Rev 21:11 having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. Rev 21:12 Also she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: Rev 21:13 three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. Rev 21:14 Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. Rev 21:15 And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. Rev 21:16 The city is laid out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand furlongs. Its length, breadth, and height are equal.

​@@pastorpresent1134 You are feeding me 6-year-old nonsense that was wrong back then and is even more wrong now. 1. Ice gain records are not being set. Ice is decreasing everywhere. Ice loss records are being set (e.g. in 2012 & 2016). 2. 2014 was a cold year in some places especially the USA (it marked the end of an unusual series of two back-to-back cooling La Niñas that covered the prior 7 years, the 2007-2011 one was a very strong La Nina). 3. Snowfall should increase under a warming climate scenario (more precipitation). This point confirms global warming. Snowfall decreases as temperatures decrease. 4. Polar bears are endangered in all locations where ice is greatly disappearing, like Hudson’s Bay. A little melting is good for them as it creates ice flows that attract seals. 5. Al Gore said no such thing. 6. The number of moose in Minnesota is not related to global warming since moose thrive in both warm and cold temperate forests. 7. At this point there is perhaps still one working climate scientist alive that thinks global warming is not real and is not an existential concern. Certainly 99% agree it is not a hoax. 8. Carbon sinks can’t remove CO2 as fast as we add CO2, maybe just half of it at most. And most of the CO2 problem comes from China and the US, mainly the US if we look at historical accumulation. 9. No prior year was warmer than 2014. All following years were warmer (see GISTemp figures below). 10. NASA completely disagrees with the claim that global warming is not occurring and is nothing for us to worry about (i.e. the claim is a flat out lie). Your link is to an article written by a high school girl that has no idea what she is talking about. No links to sources are provided. It was probably copied from an anti-climate propaganda site. Read the first comment after the article. Go to reputable sources in the future. I have about 10,000 hours of study invested in the science of climate change. I can assure you that climate change is not a hoax. GISTemp shows… x = Year and y = Temp 31 x = 2001 y = 0.54 32 x = 2002 y = 0.63 33 x = 2003 y = 0.62 34 x = 2004 y = 0.54 35 x = 2005 y = 0.68 36 x = 2006 y = 0.64 37 x = 2007 y = 0.66 38 x = 2008 y = 0.54 39 x = 2009 y = 0.66 40 x = 2010 y = 0.73 41 x = 2011 y = 0.61 42 x = 2012 y = 0.64 43 x = 2013 y = 0.69 44 x = 2014 y = 0.74 *** 45 x = 2015 y = 0.9 46 x = 2016 y = 1.01 47 x = 2017 y = 0.92 48 x = 2018 y = 0.85 49 x = 2019 y = 0.97

Palmer's swinging ball device is an excellent and informative illustration of the climate situation. The climate, represented by the ball, is moved by forces represented by the magnets. Except the climate is influenced by hundreds of natural factors, some small and some large, so Palmer's climate ball would be swinging over hundreds of magnets, only one of which is manmade atmospheric CO2. The climate swings chaotically and unpredictably. The claim that by manipulating the strength of one factor, manmade atmospheric CO2, that humans can make the climate swing as they want it to is absolutely absurd, and is demolished by Palmer's demonstration.

Ok, I have no clue what the climate will do in the next 20 or 100 years. Unfortunately neither do the climate scientist. They bases for all their theories rely on modals. While ignoring the two inescapable limitations of large scale and long timeline modals. First when you add or divide millions of times using the result of one calculation as the input of the next. The modal quickly reaches a point at witch the even infinitesimal amounts of error at the starting point overwhelms the accuracy of the output. The other problem is that systems of physical forces do not scale. For example when flow goes from smooth to turbulent. When forest growth reaches the point at which it chokes out undergrowth or when the rate of growth of the ocean's surface area is overtaken by the rate at which it is evaporated and excess water is transferred to subterranean aquifers. These are things that are not yet understood by science we are only now starting to understand how these transitions are triggered and what the forces involved are. No one can honestly say what the results of a sudden shift to a climate ware it rains on the Sera desert every day will be. How much water can the sand retain, what percentages will be retained at what depths and how will this affect the rate that water will be transferred to underground aquifers. What is the capacity of these aquifers.

Greenhouse theory presents the greatest contradiction to quantum mechanics; it assumes N2 and O2 do not emit or absorb infrared radiation at any temperature and it is only the 'greenhouse gases' that do. All matter above absolute 0 Kelvin radiates IR by QM. Something is wrong; and I know the answer. GH theory is wrong.

I have found we can measure (by inference) the non-greenhouse gases (N2 and O2, at QM predicted emission spectra 2338cm-1 and 1556cm-1 respectively and the non-GH spectra of the so-called GHGs) with modern laser-based Raman Spectroscopy, IR spectroscopies (the instrument that defines and measures the so-called special GHGs) complement instrument. With this instrument, we can measure, via the Boltzmann constant, the temperatures of these gases and the instrument is already used in a number of applications, from avionics to meteorology. We can't both have GH theory and Raman Spectroscopy; I am looking for help to get a good review - no one seems to like what I have alone uncovered, sceptics included. I have done the unthinkable. Read my working paper, Quantum Mechanics and Raman Spectroscopy Refute Greenhouse Theory vixra.org/abs/1811.0498 I aim to cut this down to a publishable version. P:S I am confusing Raman spectroscopy for the Raman effect; don't waste my time.

Summer 2017 the leaves burnt off my yard trees and my flower bushes turned brown at the first of august. fall is october not the first of august. my lawn that i usually mow once a week, did not need mowing after the first of august. This is caused by coronal hole mass ejections { radiation }. There arer no sunspots { the normal sun action} So we have a grand solar minimum that means global cooling. If it is like the maunder minimum we will have food shortages. Possibly starvation. Earth heat comes from the sun. this minimum is on a regular cycle. 20 years no temperature rise. WHY IS THIS NEVER MENTIONED BY THE GLOBAL WARMING, CLIMATE CHANGE AND NOW THE PAUSE PEOPLE. MY HEAT COMES FROM SUNSPOTS NOT RADIATION FROM CORONAL HOLE MASS EJECTIONS.
