That very primitive model from the 1700s will not accurately predict how global air streams adjust to the (demonstrably non-mean-field) elevation in the average temperature of earth.

I am not the anon you were responding to, I do agree with you global warming will have massive and negative societal consequences.

The "model" you are citing is garbage though. Hack climatologists took a model from 300 years ago and didn't understand any of the advancements in math and physics that correct and invalidate to a degree Hadley's model.

Then they used a very limited data set combined with the flawed 300 year old model and predicted in the near future the Earth's jetstreams will change substantially. Cargo cult science at its finest.

A note on this. It has been observed that methane concentrations in the atmosphere have not really changed, even though there's more methane being put into the atmosphere. It has been theorized that there's a currently unknown mechanism for atmospheric degradation of methane into CO2 and water. This is something being currently researched.
>>
>>8887245
>He also conveniently ignores the fact a net global warming of the earth will boost agriculture

The whole "global warming is good for plants and agriculture" line of thinking is so skewed. More CO2 won't result in more plant growth because CO2 doesn't limit growth to begin with. More areas open to agriculture doesn't matter when a host of other factors are driving lower yield.

For ever new agricultural zone opened up by warming, another is closed via getting too hot. All our established farming practices will have to be upended and reorganized.

Global warming causes more extreme weather. This means more periods of intense rain and more periods of intense drought, neither of which is good for sustained agricultural growth.

Warmer climates are also more conducive to pests and disease which wipe out crops.
>>
>>8888798
>a currently unknown mechanism for atmospheric degradation of methane into CO2 and water.

Doesn't sound especially reassuring.
>>
>>8888809
plant leaves burn up at high uv index. there will also be solar related earthquakes and sinkholes more frequently. the fault lines will unzip one after opening fracture systems giving magma a chance to escape more easily.
>>
It's really a strange thought.

There's been previous periods with similar CO2 levels in the air, but the climate was so vastly different.

I can't help but think we've done something big here. That will have significant consequences for the centuries to come. Unless we remove CO2 from the air, which frankly we should do - just to make sure.
>>
>>8888884
>There's been previous periods with similar CO2 levels in the air, but the climate was so vastly different.

>>8888809
We will either have to...

1. Enforce draconian population controls to mantain our current standard of living.
OR
2. Sustain a massive drop in our standard of living to lower CO2 emissions. (For example breeding and eating insects instead of cattle farming or restricting industrial manufacturing)
OR
3. Dump billions in funding to research alternative energy sources, hydroponic farming and ways to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.
OR
Any combination of these three.

The future looks bleak no matter how you look at it. Climate change deniers will be seen like flat earthers in the future.

CO2 is only ONE factor for plant growth. And very rarely the limiting one.

Yes, in greenhouses with fertilized soils where every other nutrient the plants need are a plenty.
>>
>>8889191
But that's wrong. Everything in a plants cycle is driven by CO2, thus they grow larger with more CO2.

It's the same reason bugs were significantly larger millions of years ago; when the oxygen levels of the atmosphere were much higher than they are now.

CO2 is necessary but not sufficient for plant growth. it's not the ONLY thing they need, and in most cases outside of greenhouses, it's not the thing they're in shortest supply of (and hence limited by).
cakes are made with flour, but more flour only allows you to bake more cakes if you have sufficient supply of eggs, milk, sugar, etc.

>It's the same reason bugs were significantly larger millions of years ago; when the oxygen levels of the atmosphere were much higher than they are now.
that's also not entirely correct.
higher oxygen levels do help, but another major reason was a lack of aerial predators besides insects; Meganeura could afford to have a wingspan over a yard because there were no birds to pluck it out of the sky. even terrestrial arthropods (such as Arthropleura) benefited from different patterns of predation.

Because someone did the math on how long it takes for that reaction to happen at different temperatures, and there is less co2 present in the atmosphere than there should be based on that reaction alone.

So there is some unknown catalyst speeding the reaction.

>>8887072
For perhaps some context, here is a graph that is shows the actual part CO2 comprises in the atmosphere, rather than zooming in on the small range such as in OP's graph that allows fluctuations to be seen more clearly.

For simplicity's sake, I've just graphed the extreme low on OP's graph, and the extreme high.

As can be seen, CO2 has grown from an almost totally insignificant part of the atmosphere to become an almost insignificant part of the atmosphere.

To the extent that one wanted to trace anthropogenic influence on climate, it might be worthwhile (though possibly much harder) to track more potent greenhouse gasses, such as methane, and to try and understand the effects of H2O as a gas and as a condensate (clouds) on temperature and heat retention over time.

CO2 is a red herring.

Except the climate avtivists, on both sides, who claim to know EXACTLY what it will be. They don't, of course.

>The precautionary principle should in effect, but the consumers literally could not give a fuck.

But the precautionary principle must be applied with some discretion -- absolute adherence leads to everybody hiding in the basement in the dark until the starve or freeze.

Bear in mind that the precautionary prionciple can cut both ways. Allowing the climate to change from human activity MAY lead to very bad consequences -- but then, so may the economically crippling actions being advocated to address it. The PP indicates that we can't do either, if accepted blindly. But we will have to do one, or the other, or some other, intermediate, course of action which also entails some risks.

Risk is unavoidable -- using the PP to declare the risks associated with policy you don't like to be the only ones worth considering leads to bad policy.

That seems speculative in the extreme. Unless you posit a lot of rocs flying around, the addition of birds to the predation pattern is not going to have much impact on a three-foot bug.

>Good thing that it's not a prediction but an observed phenomenon.

What will happen in the future is not an observed phenomenon. Statements claiming to reveal what will happen in the future are indeed predictions.

Since much of the thread (and the climate discussion in general) center around warnings about what will happen in the future, much of the thread and discussion center around predictions.

Models for short-term prediction have been iffy, and the tendency of advocates and media to seize the most alarming extreme predictions and trumpet those have aided in creating a climate, for want of a better word, in which too many now regard any and all predictions on the topic as motivated more by media or political interests and less by actual science.

In effect, the Al Gores of the world, by saying crazy shit about what is about to happen, which a few years later can be seen not have happened, do a lot of damage to any fact-based efforts to mobilize public opinion and will to make any needed changes.

Also I love how the data only goes to 1990, didn't know we only had records going back that far, makes me wonder why climate alarmists were predicting an ice age a few decades ago, and gave up once that didn't happen

Why do you deny reality that conflicts with your religious belief in "man made climate change"?
I can find dozens of more articles, why do you think this claim was never made? History shows you're completely ignorant on the subject

My mom was deathly afraid of the coming ice age. Dad would make fun of it all. But it was THE popsci of the time. Now alarmists want to pretend that scare never really happened. By saying no 'real' scientist supported it as they prop up up Nye, Gore, and any idiot who pays them lip service to the new fear mongering. It's history repeating.

There are catalytic reactions that do this, but their development is still in its infancy. Iceland is doing it though, but not with atmospheric CO2. They're hydrogenating the CO2 produced in smelting plants using the preexisting excess of electricity to electrolyze water as a hydrogen source.

The first example of a "global cooling" paper given says that aroesols cause cooling. Most of the rest are about aerosol cooling as well. Deniers are so fucking dishonest.

Just stop.
That list has been pulled apart enough times it's no longer funny. A third of those papers are discussing the 1940-1970 period, and third are discussing aerosol forcings, and the remainder aren't papers at all but newspaper articles.
