Come on OP, any arguments to make besides a factually incorrect picture? Why should we bother working to optimize and clean up inefficient power sources that have already been surpassed by nuclear? Why aren't we switching over to nuclear for our electrical needs? Why do environmentalists only ever care about the climate when it gives them an excuse to expand government taxes and regulation? How is climate change going to bring about a Venus scale runaway global warming event when the Earth simply doesn't have enough carbon in it's composition for such an event to be possible? Why is 400ppm atmospheric carbon apocalyptic when life flourished at 4000+ppm in the past? Why should we try to hold on to this post-ice age climate when hotter climates have historically been beneficial to life as a whole?

Feel free to answer even a single one of these questions.

Yeah any real environmentalist has to support nuclear as a means of transitioning to a carbon neutral/negative economy. The cost of climate change is far to great to worry about comparatively trivial, local damage done by nuclear.

>>132428831
Its hard to compare GHG emissions in a global economy though. Why stop the buck at Asia? Most of their emissions are due to demand for consumer goods in first world countries. Each country serves a different purpose in production that is dependent on all other countries, China and India should and are being forced to reduce emissions however you must realise that in order to do this an maintain living standards that they will have to continue to rely on cheaper dirtier forms of energy.

This.
So far climate evangelists have not convinced me we can actually stop climate change (not to mention that it getting warmer will in the long run increase the net amount of life on the planet by producing a warmer and more carbon rich environment for plant life). Last I had checked if we spent a significant portion of our GDP on the """solutions""" put forward in the PCA it would put off a dangerous level of climate shift for a few months, that assuming that every member actually did that and did it for another hundred years.

Take it from someone who also used to deny a lot of science, be more humble about what you know. The people working in these fields are smarter than almost everyone you know and dedicate their whole life to understanding incredibly narrow fields which you or I know only a fraction of a percent about.

>>132431361
Fuck so much wrong with this.

For one why take the average of three balloon and three satellite data sets? They all have different methodologies and their own biases and rarely agree in their records.

Where are the uncertainty ranges? Does the evidence agree with the predictions? This graph could never tell us. We could only know in a graph showing the 95% CI.

What satellite and balloon datasets are being used for this graph? Satellite and balloon data is subject to by far the most error among all data sources due to the perils of adjusting for impacts such as orbital decay. Its important that we're shown just how much these estimates measured by satellite vary.

Pic related shows the three 'main' satellite datasets seperate against the IPCC projection WITH the CI.

Its also important to note that its flawed to be basing your critiques off one prediction of one value and only a handful of the existing data series. A fair analysis of the evidence should take into account all the models and all the datasets and also account for how valid the results may be.

Ok then if your telling the truth you should understand how retarded it would be for me, someone with only a first year uni understanding of chemistry, to come along and say your field is bullshit and have complete confidence in my assertions

Also there are some problems with the pic. For one it doesn't tell us the data source of the estimates which can cause great variation in recorded sensitivity >>132430166. Additionally it doesn't claim to summarise all current knowledge on CS just the conclusions of recent studies which may or may not be neutrally selected.

It fell within range sometimes, and considering the prediction was "there would be a rise" it's not a very useful model.

There's nothing we can do about global warming, scientist has said that even if we do contribute to it, there's no way we can reverse the effects.

If we cant do anything about it, then why the fuck don't we focus on bracing the impact global warming (while heeding the possibility that the effects may have been exaggerated).

Why are we focusing on global warming if we cant do shit about it instead of focusing on our polution with plastic and non-perishable items?

Data is filtered into it, but it isn't represented properly. Climate models can't even project backwards correctly a lot of the time. There are just so many variables, and we don't know how they interact properly, even now.

You can take as much data as you want, but if you can't put it into a conclusion for prediction, then it's useless.

Someone probably said this already, but it has been proven that we could easily continue on living with if all flora suddenly vanished. There's enough breathable oxygen in the atmosphere for another 1000 years. By that time we'd find alternatives. The technological innovations in the past century have been insane when compared to the rest of human history. If they continue at this pace or faster, we can easily achieve space travel, AI, fusion power, etc... within 1k years.
