And the answer is neither, they were both acting like shitheads.
Tucker is denying based on prejudice and thus not actually debating.
Bill doesn't try to defend nor answer the questions, and instead just spews "facts" to reinstate his status.
In this video, neither actually give a shit about the facts of climate change, they just want the reputation of sacking each other.

Global warming exists. It's pretty much irreversible at this point. Plus, I don't think a nation should tax their citizens to death for it, so the elites can pocket the majority while the rest go unseen into taxpayer programs/renewable energy. If it's such a concern the country should make an effort that creates jobs, and reeducates people for new energy jobs, instead of laying the burden on it's citizens with zero short-term ROI.

>>115090058
Tucker

He gets straight answers from bill. Timescales for change of thousands of years are reduced to decades. Our climate was originally on course to stay like it was pre-industralization because the climate doesn't normally change a lot between the span of a few hundred years.

Tucker keeps repeating the questions and pretending he hasn't received an answer, because he has no refutation for the answer. He would have to say "ok, but I don't believe you" without being able to defend it and look like a dumbass. The real way to argue is to present information that's contrary to bill's claims, then you get to argue about which information if valid.

Then at the end he calls bill close minded when tucker himself has presented no information, there's nothing in the argument for bill to close his mind to. Unless maybe the fact that denialism is not skepticism. Global warming could be complete horseshit, but if you deny evidence without explaining why, you're a denalist, not a skeptic.

You have no way to prove how CO2 introduced into the Earth's Atmosphere affects Earth's climate.

Me? I'm not making any claims.

But no one can prove anything in science, there is no absolute certainty, only educated guesses. If you mean to say there's no way to support the hypothesis that CO2 affects the earth's climate, you're making an assumption. There is potentially a way a support any claim that is falsifiable, it's called finding evidence.

>You don't know if all the CO2 emitted by man, prevented an Ice Age, did not affect the climate, or made an already warming climate warmer, or cooler.
>On that score Tucker won.

Tucker has no idea what volume of evidence bill nye has seen to come to his conclusion and if it is reasonable to "know" in a layman's sense (not absolutely certainty). It's another stupid assumption, actually its the same assumption that something beyond this arbitrary line is "unknowable" when it really might be if you are a climatologist.

You don't need a control for claims to be in the purview of science, they just have to be testable. Sometimes tests in science aren't experiments at all, EX: predictions turn out to be true.

What's really the problem is scientists have a horrible track record at predicting the future of chaotic systems.

The problem is you niggers try to pretend you know something about science and you dont. The only person the word "degree" in the statement "to which degree did it effect it" would confuse would be a stupid nigger liberal. The point is extremely solid, and being so much of a nigger that you think "the science is settled" is a fucking disturbing stance for anyone to take when pretending to know anything about it.

The earth is more than likely being effected by us, but there is no actual science showing it. Ontop of that, you niggers dont know science so you picked CO2 because its abundant, but neglected to realize its the most harmless part of the combustion process besides water vapor. Even other forms of carbon are worse for our planet, not to mention the radiation spewing out of our nuclear power plants. But no its all about carbon dioxide in your little nigger brain, because the science is settled dont you know.

>As the world slid into and out of the last ice age, the general cooling and warming trends were punctuated by abrupt changes. Climate shifts up to half as large as the entire difference between ice age and modern conditions occurred over hemispheric or broader regions in mere years to decades. Such abrupt changes have been absent during the few key millennia when agriculture and industry have arisen. The speed, size, and extent of these abrupt changes required a reappraisal of climate stability. Records of these changes are especially clear in high-resolution ice cores. Ice cores can preserve histories of local climate (snowfall, temperature), regional (wind-blown dust, sea salt, etc.), and broader (trace gases in the air) conditions, on a common time scale, demonstrating synchrony of climate changes over broad regions.

Something similar to this has happened to me every place I have moved too. California never saw droughts like this before, and they did. Massachusetts had never seen blizzards like this before, and they did.

Was thinking about that that nye debate . I fee nye is a high priest of liberal materalism . He's pushing his particular ideological biases twards cchristians or any theists in general .
If you disagree with a logical positivist or materialist they just claim your against formal logic and against the values and bedrock of western civilization . This approach is quite is evidently stupid . It's Made up of forces and force sublimated representations . In other words it's Obviously power as well. So it's It's really about power . One group dominating another one has so called truth another does not . The battle begins . But neither have Acsess to truth Anyway .The flaw of positivism is that it replaces explanation with description . It's pre consumed images that are recognizable by either side in otherwords a brand loyalty. The dichotomizations of reality into particulars removed from a universality is its self a obvious schizo approach . And quite dangerous and goes no where . In sum it differences its self form its self into a object element under the assumption the boundary of its self in relationship . But that's a major flaw a fragment can never be in control for long .and also it has to dominate to do so . The debate is about power . See I seen it as self referentiality. Or as Plato called it homonumon
Anyway as for logic goes I have no problem with irrationality and illogical actions . You will never get rid of them they are in a endless chapter of the myth of sysiphus

I have never watched a tucker segment before this one, so I don't know about his 'constantly interrupting' shtick or whatever, but in this particular instance he had asked Nye some basic stuff that he had no idea how to answer. He seemed very unprepared. There are several times in the video where he talks for 20-45 seconds and nothing of value is said. Towards the end, he did get a bit more interrupty, but how can you not, when you just wasted 10 minutes talking about nothing, and have derived no real answers at all from what was said. Nye's answer to the question of 'how much of global warming is man made, and how much is naturally cyclical' was nothing tangible, it was just 'a lot'. at one point he said 100%. Literally. Watch it again. He had no sciencey shit to say AT FUCKING ALL. His fucking self proclaimed title is the science guy. Fuck! Anyway, Tucker was rude towards the end. It was rude to tell Nye he wasn't a scientist. Nye was obviously super flustered, and Tucker is more experienced with arguing(Preschool level Nye-sponsored Creationist debates aside), and so it was a little unfair I guess in that regard.

Bill's 'straight answers' were stuff like "We were going to have another ice age. Ain't gonna happen, cause of you and me" For real, he literally said that. Now, you have to remember. Tucker was asking one question, the same question, as is his apparent shtick, until the end of the video. He spent that entire video waiting for an answer to the first question. The question was 'To what degree is global warming caused by man'

All credible "deniers" agree that CO2 causes warming. We know exactly how much it causes in isolation based on lab experiments.

The problem is we don't have an exact handle on the numerous feedbacks that exist to curtail the effects of CO2 on warming. If these didn't exist, then every time a volcano erupted we would be set on an irreversible path toward being Venus.

The Anthropogenic Global Warming crowd INSIST that not only does CO2 have long term warming effects not curbed by feedbacks, they say that it is actually magnified (3x) vs the results of lab experiments.

The skeptics say that the effect is halved, not multiplied by three, and they believe this takes place primarily because of increased water vapor, which causes upper strata clouds which reflect some heat back into space.

In my experience, with a background in botany, CO2 has a positive effect for the planet. This is evidenced on a global scale by planetary greening, especially around the equator (shown by NASA), as well as expansion of coral reefs. The globe being a few degrees warmer isn't going to kill off humanity (or nearly anything,) and neither would a tripling of current CO2. Many professional greenhouses increase the level of atmospheric CO2 to at least 1000 ppm, oftentimes more.

He didn't answer the question until someone handed him a piece of paper. And the answer was complete horse shit.

The funny thing is, we could have been heading for another ice age right that second, and we fucked shit up so much not only did we stop the ice age but began to warm the planet up. There is no fucking way of knowing that though, and its just as feasible that we haven't really effected it at all considering how weak of a greenhouse gas co2 is.

I don't see how any experiments done in a lab could really help predict the effects of certain gases on heat retention and magnification in our atmosphere.

What I'm curious about is what the temperatures were during that time. I'm sure it would be easy to find out

Only if you insist on 9 decimal places of precision.
In a broad sense we are well aware that humans are 100% responsible for the radical acceleration of climate change, and thus if you had to pick a percentage it would be in the high 90's.
>hurrr,durrr, but you don't know if humans are responsible for 99.9% or 99,8%, hurrr,durr, you can't know nuffin
Even if humans are only responsible for 99.8% instead of 99.9%, we aren't going to get volcanoes and African wildlife to change their 0.2%.
One hundred percent of the change we can effect is inherit in our own behavior.
Even the Donald can't deny that.

>>115100158
Except I haven't made an argument; that was my first post.

Tucker was asking a nonsense question solely to try to cast doubt on what scientists "know." He wanted Nye to say "I don't know" or "that is unknowable" so that he could cast doubt on climate science generally.

Meanwhile 1991 video from Shell gets released showing that they were fully aware of climate change. Tucker was being entirely disingenuous as he often is in order to fulfil his role as a hack.

>>115100403
It was warm, but I believe that was because there were no ice caps at the time. Global temperatures seem dependent on our oceans more than anything else. I am sure CO2 affected it as well, but there are so many more potent greenhouse gasses like water vapor that change constantly.

It also caused so much oxygen to be produced that the air would explode during thunder storms.

Re:>>115099374
Temperatures have been both higher and lower than current with higher CO2 present. Of course CO2 is not the only variable in warming.

The lab experiments don't help determine actual warming trends, that was my point. The "consensus" that is touted is that CO2 causes warming - that's it - and the so-called "deniers" also agree to that, which is why the figure is high at all. Everyone agrees that CO2 causes warming in isolation, the disagreement is about feedbacks.

Anyone who says "science is settled" is behaving unscientifically.

>Humans have been releasing too much CO2 to be taken in by the natural carbon sink.

>Temperatures have been increasing with increasing CO2

>The temperature increase matched the predictive models that were made in the late 80s/early 90s

>The increase in temperature can result in releasing even more greenhouse gases, which in turn causes more heating. One example is that ice in Siberia is melting, creating marshland, which released CH4, causing further warming.

I know that's the point of what Tucker was doing...

No it should not cause doubt. It is not a reasonable question within the discourse around climate change. It is irrelevant to the science; it is literally a nonsense question.

Science does not claim to have the ability to answer any hypothetical question. It provides the best understanding of the data that is available.

posting this again for you low IQ shits

http://www.pnas.org/content/97/4/1331.full

>As the world slid into and out of the last ice age, the general cooling and warming trends were punctuated by abrupt changes. Climate shifts up to half as large as the entire difference between ice age and modern conditions occurred over hemispheric or broader regions in mere years to decades. Such abrupt changes have been absent during the few key millennia when agriculture and industry have arisen. The speed, size, and extent of these abrupt changes required a reappraisal of climate stability. Records of these changes are especially clear in high-resolution ice cores. Ice cores can preserve histories of local climate (snowfall, temperature), regional (wind-blown dust, sea salt, etc.), and broader (trace gases in the air) conditions, on a common time scale, demonstrating synchrony of climate changes over broad regions.

There are other arguments to be made too like the fact that warming will actually be a net positive. Also humans contribute only 3% of annual co2 emissions. There will be more greening and the biosphere will adapt to this new glut of co2.

There was a time in which earth was a giant iceball and a time when where was no ice caps. In either situation, we can acknowledge that the earths weather changed drastically over millennia without humans. To whatever extent humans might cause an acceleration of this process, the outcome wouldn't be a human caused. Let's say that he's mans cause a global warming increase .01% ahead of its geological warming trend. Would the lack of humans have stopped the warming trend? This is the lost discussion.

Not in every case. Also, what you're describing inevitably leads us to runaway greenhouse gas, which we haven't had yet despite significantly higher levels of CO2 in the past. Why did warmer temperatures and higher CO2 not cause a runaway effect? Because you're leaving shit out.

>it's not guesswork, it's observed fact

Look, the 'observed fact' is that we are like one degree higher than we were in the 70s, or whatever amount it is. That is true! If you think that the 'millenia to decades' thing is true, and it is "observed fact" then why dont you just go ahead and provide me with a source there, friendo :)

The 'truth' is that we simply don't have a clue whether or not we are affecting the climate, and if we are, we have no clue to what degree. The temperature drastically rises and falls without our help (sometimes, even more so than in our history). There were periods in the past called 'ice ages' and such and temperatures were not always the same.

Holy fuck you are retarded. Just because science as done amazing things doesn't mean you bow down to anyone who calls them self a scientist.

You faggots can tax the rich all you want i dont care, use something real though. The only part of all this that concerns me is you are the same faggots who kill any alternative energy besides the ones that aren't ready like solar or other "green tech" You faggots are preventing us from having an energy revolution that could change the world.. You are the same faggots who have been hindering science since the dawn of civilization.

We do know it's getting warmer.

How many climate change deniers here also dent the scientific consensus regarding vaccines?
How many of you think the moon landing was fake?

Saying "we can't know if we're causing climate change" is like saying "you can't prove bigfoot doesn't exist".

we don't know that things we do make it warmer. there's simply no way at all to test for that. and given the infinitesimally small sample size, for all we know mans actions are making the world colder.

They were both in the wrong. Bill couldn't deliver anything but qualitative stuff, Tuck couldn't take anything but quantitative answers, and it took more than half way through to come to the point that we're accelerating the issue to an uncertain, but not insignificant amount.

They both embarrassed themselves here, and I generally like Tucker. Tucker's answers mockery and claims wouldn't satisfy anyone but the "Fox News" Republicans, and Nye's smug, self-righteous, hand wavy answers only satisfy the hard core climate change cultists.

>>115102070


>Nope! 1500ppm dinosaur times baby

By "dinosaur times" I assume you mean 250 million years ago, when there was a large amount of CO2 and the overall climate was hotter. The large amount of CO2 was produced by sudden volcanic activity, and the carbon sink back then was less effective than it is now. The key difference is that there wasn't a steady increase in the level of CO2, which means that eventually the carbon sink removed the "excess" CO2 produced. The reduction in CO2 took
.
>Hold up a sec, isn't our atmospheric c02 450 ppm? How long has it been that way?

In the last 50 years it has increased from ~325 to ~409 ppm; it has never been above 300 ppm for hundreds of thousands of years.

>So we are right on point where we are supposed to be, or was that a model that was designed to showcase our man made c02 caused global warming? I need a link, sir!

I think I have made a mistake with this one. The IPCC produced several models that attempt to fit the observed rise in temperatures over the past 200 years, and only when the effects of CO2 were included did they get an accurate fit.

>Well once again I point you to the massive c02 levels we had had before humans were present. If anything our c02 is super low now, and i'm concerned. We need more c02!!

Yes, there was a very warm period about 55 million years ago, which was caused by a massive increase in CO2. What exactly led up to the huge release in CO2 is unknown, but it was very similar to a positive feedback. These things have occurred in the past before as well. The key difference is humans weren't alive when this happened.

which is all a valid assessment of the video. the only problem being that just because nye wasn't able to answer quantitative questions on the spot (which is more or less what happens to anyone of any party when asked to provide complex proofs and details of their views on the spot) doesn't mean they don't exist. they do, and climate change deniers don't care.
>>
>>115109423
There's also the possibility that no matter what we do, and even stopping now won't change a damn thing. This is why quantitatively answering Tucker's question is important.

Carlson was right.
Bill Nye just went autistic there and jumped like ten minutes ahead of their conversation and at the end shat out that completely unrelated Trump leaks tangent. It's like he was more focused on vomiting talking points out then actually having a conversation.
All Carlson was asking for was where's the evidence and how the world would look like today. Bill Nye is probably tired of spoon feeding people sure but you can't just blow off their question and leave them behind like that, that's not a conversation at all. Sure Carlson might have had the intention to use Nye as a punching bag and Nye caught on to that, but when you jump around like that it just makes you look autistic.

The problem you really see for the Science community is the whole shut up and listen approach they have on things. Sure people are intentionally denying it but others legitimately don't see it, when you autistically vomit out talking points like that it just puts off the people that are legitimately no seeing it and empowers the deniers.
>>
>>115102274
>Not known to what degree, only estimated.

Actually, we do know to what degree:

>Also not known with any surety.

Except it is known. The level of CO2 has been rising steadily since industrialization. Humans release 30 billion tons of CO2 each year, which is too much for the carbon cycle to remove. Imagine it like filling up a bath with the plug removed - if the rate of water entering matches the rate of water leaving, there is no net gain or loss, but then if you add even more water into it, the amount of water in the bath will increase.

>Burden not met to go beyond correlation.

You're wrong.

>Now that is just laughable. There have been dozens of predictive models and even the conservative ones overshot reality.

Such as?

>Not in every case. Also, what you're describing inevitably leads us to runaway greenhouse gas, which we haven't had yet despite significantly higher levels of CO2 in the past. Why did warmer temperatures and higher CO2 not cause a runaway effect? Because you're leaving shit out.

We have had periods of positive feedback such as with clathrate gun hypothesis. Another example is the ice-albedo effect, where the melting of ice causes less light to be reflected and therefore increases temperature, or converse freezing of water produces more ice which reflects more radiation. Another famous example is water vapour feedback; water can act as a greenhouse gas, so as more water evaporates and the amount of water increases, the amount of radiation absorbed instead of leaving the planet also increases (with CO2 absorbing IR radiation at different wavelengths from H2O).

Venus is an extreme example of a runaway effect, but that will never happen on Earth as it is not close enough to the sun to receive the same kind of radiation. Interestingly, Venus' atmosphere is 96.5% CO2, and it is even hotter than Mercury, despite Mercury's closer proximity to the Sun.

They do offer realistic solutions, investing in green energy infrastructure, more efficient ICE vehicles, if not just phasing them out with green vehicles. Clean and green energy is actually cheaper now days to produce as well. Lower carbon emissions and save money doing it, there's plenty of smart and easy steps in the right direction, win - win. A lot of them aren't utilized because of powerful lobbying and propaganda against green energy, since primitive fuel companies want to keep their monopoly on the energy markets.
>>
>>115115368
Those aren't realistic solutions. Switching to ''green energy'' doesn't stop China, India and Africa from using normal sane people energy.

An actual realistic solution to the non-existent problem would be to switch to nuclear energy. If you showed the rest of the world that nuclear energy is great, they would have a much easier time selling the idea of nuclear energy to the citizens.
The only real reason we haven't switched to nuclear is because ''muh Chernobyl! muh Fukushima!'', and cold war nuclear scare.

I almost mentioned it but yes, nuclear energy is one of the best right now, I don't think its technically green but it's virtually clean as can be but it's competitive with primitive fuels and is a over all good switch.

I have to disagree on your other point though, the bigger nations tend to play role models for the others. Surely they'll switch once other nations start setting the example to follow, not to mention with the falling prices they'll surely move over for the cheaper power as well. Also I'd like to point out China is one of the fastest adopters of green solutions now days.

Global warming is a problem because its an all encompassing answer to actual problems. CO2 is not the fucking answer to all of our problems, and it never will be.

We have had an increase of like 40% in our c02 levels thanks to the industrial revolution beginning in the 1800s. It's insane how quickly the c02 rate has (exponentially) increased during that time.

I was stunned but kept reading shit, and eventually came to the conclusion that c02 has absolutely fuck all to do with temperatures, or very little to do with them anyway. It turns out I was right in the end, about climate change not being majorly influenced by man, or it at least seems that way. If I am wrong I would love for somebody to refute me, but this thread is about done. Maybe next thread. Here's some links!

Don't get me wrong, I'm concerned about the c02 levels. I think it's proper fucked that we approach our environmental issues with such a cavalier attitude as a society, but it doesn't seem to indicate that the c02 has much to do with global warming. c02 is very good for certain types of organisms including plants. I'm not sure what other effects it may have. I am forgetting my main point, which is that we are probably throwing some REALLY nasty shit into the atmosphere and the ground and oceans, that is way scarier than c02. I am all for environmentalism as long as it makes sense

Unfortunately humans produce 100 times the CO2 as volcanos, so I'm afraid this argument gets a 1/10.

>The sun has been getting closer for years also, has he talked about that?
I'll have to give this one a 0/10 I'm afraid, the sun and earth are actually separating at 1.5cm per year.

Hi welcome to /pol/.
You seem to have completely ignored the poster's high-level input to the discussion.
If you wish to continue your PC dicketry, please fuck off to Reddit. Thanks.
>By this point according to 1994, there would be no trees. By this point according to 2001, there would be no more ice caps.

>They have discredited themselves over and over,

>>the worst part is it might be true,

>but I doubt CO2 is the culprit. We have reached boy who cried wolf levels at this point.
