The Global Warming Myth

If carbon dioxide is causing warming of the planet, very slightly, then what a good thing that is.

Let's rejoice in the fact.

So Cold

People in higher latitudes, such as in Canada and Russia have to endure severe frosts and mountainous snow drifts in winter, with the ever-present danger of hypothermia.

Some of the most reputable scientists assert that increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere does not cause global warming but is caused by global warming as the Sun becomes more active. And as for the acidification of the oceans, the burning of coal that often contains ferrous pyrite a sulphide of iron, I'm not foolin' releases sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide into the atmosphere. The capture of these acidic gases rather than carbon dioxide from the flues of electricity-generating power stations would prevent this lowering of the pH of the marine environment, and that would not be rocket science.

Hysteria

Mineral dust could be captured simultaneously. Really, I should think that the Earth as a planet is far too cold and that the hysteria characterized by " time to act NOW " really time to worry about global warming now and "cut down on carbon emissions to prevent catastrophic thermal runaway!" originates from environmentalists who are paid by government and live in modern very well heated houses.

This carbon dioxide sequestration is therefore a waste of resources, wrong in principle and serves to put up the price of electricity, hitting the poorest people the most. Propaganda about "Climate Change" a.k.a. global warming, if repeated continually over years, will eventually be believed by the democratic majority.

Barry's Response - Thanks William for your input. A lot of people share your sentiment. You will, however, find a lot more who disagree for one reason or another.

It's true that this topic gets people worked up, and the prevailing climate discourse is often fear-based.

Here's some real science.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) isn't the great climate villain of our time. CO2 is great for plants, and it was higher long before SUVs and air conditioners. When you chart CO2 and temperature over geological time, temperature changes often come before CO2 fluctuations. Could it be that warming oceans release CO2 instead of CO2 driving it? Warm liquids hold less dissolved gas, according to Henry's Law.

It's weird how the sun gets overlooked in climate debates. Our climate is profoundly affected by sunspot cycles, solar minima and maxima, and cosmic ray interactions. Solar activity correlates better with historical periods like the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age. How do mainstream climate models handle clouds? Because clouds regulate Earth's temperature like a giant thermostat, affected by cosmic rays and solar activity.

Examples...

Let's not even start on ocean acidification! A small change in pH doesn't make the oceans "acidic." What's the biggest influence on ocean pH? Volcanic activity, natural upwelling, and biological processes are more important than human emissions.

It's not just about science anymore; it's about politics, power, and money. Carbon taxes and energy restrictions hurt the poorest the most. While climate "experts" make doomsday predictions that extend far enough into the future that they won't be held accountable. When did Al Gore want the Arctic to be ice-free? Some time in the past, by now. UN irreversible warming deadlines? Missed it too. A meteorologist with this record would be flipping burgers now.

How about freedom of thought? Even asking questions about climate science gets you labeled a "denier." Real science requires skepticism. Stewardship of the Earth means managing it responsibly, not destroying modern energy infrastructure.

You're on to something, William. It's time to question climate alarmism. It's important to analyze natural climate variability. We shouldn't think science is settled-because it's not.

Let's keep talking!
