As we see the Davos crowd meeting virtually over the next week we are sure to be hearing a lot of Climate Change.

1/Climate change is real. Over 2 million years ago Planet Earth became a snow ball as it entered the ice age.

2/Over the last 800,000 years of the ice age we have had 7 glacial periods of around 100k years and as many shorter but warmer interglacials of 10-15K. We are 15 k years into the current interglacial named the Halocene.

3/The Halocene optimum was reached 6000 years ago with higher temperatures and sea levels than today. The previous interglacial was warmer than this one with higher sea levels.

4/Another glacial period is in our future, and this will destroy food production and results in a global famine. This seems more likely than runaway global warming, but predictions are difficult. Eyes should be open as we enter a new Grand Solar Minimum

5/Section 14.2.2. of IPCC Assessment Report, (2001) titled “Predictability in a Chaotic System” says:

“The climate system is challenging ... we are dealing with a coupled non-linear chaotic system, and ... the long-term prediction of future climate states is not possible”

6/Human produced CO2 is a tiny 4 % of total CO2 emissions. The oceans contain 37,400 billion tons (GT) of suspended carbon, land biomass has 2000-3000 GT.

7/The atmosphere contains 720 billion GT of CO2 and humans contribute only 8 GT/yr of C The oceans, land and atmosphere exchange CO2 continuously.

8/IPCC has grossly underestimated the future oceanic CO2 uptake.  They assume only 50% of mans emissions are absorbed

9/In essence they are stating that the approximately 4 GT C/yr accumulated by the atmosphere is all of mans C from CO2 emissions and none of natures 89 GT C/yr emissions.

10/As to CO2 levels past and present comparisons, ice core evidence suggest CO2 levels change with changing temperature with temperatures driving CO2 levels and not vice versa

11/Geological and ice core samples don't translate directly to atmospheric C02 levels except as a very rough estimate of a several hundred years or millennia average, so the effect is to smooth out the CO2 levels and erase spikes

12/As for the GHG analogy. By far the most important greenhouse gas is water vapor. However, water in the form of clouds can reflect back solar radiation, causing temperature reduction.

13/Clouds are nature’s screen reflecting some portion of incoming SW and outgoing LW. We have little idea how clouds work to modify temperatures.

14/We can see what the absence of clouds does . In the cloudless dry desert the day – night temperature range is the highest anywhere due to lack of water vapor.

15/The lack of the greatest atmospheric GHG (H2O) results in the loss of LW heat into space (aka LW radiational cooling). Cold clear winter day/nights with low humidity show similar effects with plunging temperatures due to little obstacle to LW radiation to space.

16/CO2 levels are basically the same in cloudless and cloudy days and nights except near the surface.

17/Most of the increase in avg temperature is due to an increase in night time temperatures and not day time. Maybe this is due to more CO2, especially in urban areas where CO2 levels at the surface are much higher than the 412 ppm measured on the top of Mauna Loa. Is that bad?

18/Clouds are the wild card of climate change. In the 2001 IPCC Report it says:

“In response to any climate perturbation the response of cloudiness thereby introduces feedbacks whose sign and amplitude are largely unknown.”

19/So we have a model of the atmosphere that doesn’t seem to mknow how clouds work but is the basis for climate predictions of global warming.

20/In short, Climate “Science” is influenced by the same people giving you Covid “science”. Same data manipulation and terror models employed so they can roll out the Great Reset and Agenda 2030 which will make you slaves controlled by a Technopoly. To keep you safe they say. Lol
