I expect I've got more degrees than you, larue.
There is no way you have even an undergrad degree based on your writing skills and your total ignorance towards science.
If you can't understand forcing and feedback climate effects the only degree you would earn would come from an ancient matchbook.
Forcing vs feedback, larue.
Clearly you just aren't bright enough to understand the subject.

you have clearly shown your scientific ignorance
go sit in the corner with your dunce cap on

Larue, you can't understand the basics of climate science.
Greenhouse gases have forcing effects on the climate.
Water vapour is a feedback effect.
You're not smart enough to understand the difference and its incredibly basic science.
You are hopeless.
I'm sure there are many climate scientists who are smarter and more informed than I. That doesn't mean they can do the impossible. Which is to reconstruct with a high level of certainty what the global climate was 2 million years ago, 200 million years ago or 2 billion years ago.
When you hear 2023 was the warmest year on record, how many climate data points does the record encompass? And how accurate and reliable is the record? Furthermore, why is 2°C some sort of 'tipping point'? Most living organisms are preconditioned to warming of at least 4-6°C. A warming climate is a much better alternative than a cooling climate.
The "experts" are predicting a record number of hurricanes this year.
Lets revisit their prediction in November to see if they were right

Lets revisit their prediction in November to see if they were right
New preseason hurricane forecast is highest ever issued. Brace yourself, Florida
NOAA predicts 17 to 25 named storms, 8 to 13 hurricanes and 4 to 7 major hurricanes.
They don't need or try to reconstruct the temp from 2 billion years ago with a high level of certainty.
The planet's climate would be quite different with 2ºC warmer, with the 4ºC or so we are headed towards right now vast chunks become unliveable.
There are tons of studies, you could easily find out.
World’s top climate scientists expect global heating to blast past 1.5C target
Exclusive: Planet is headed for at least 2.5C of heating with disastrous results for humanity, poll of hundreds of scientists finds

I'd be tempted to take the side of climate activists if climate skeptics and
deniers are using that as an excuse not to cut back on consumption of gas
and other fossil fuel products. In reality people, non climate-deniers included,
don't want to compromise their lifestyle. Climate denial is not a significant
factor in rising carbon emission.
there is a difference between compromising a lifestyle and pushing billions of people into abject poverty and starvation via stupidity.
restricting fossil fuel supply will reverse this truly wonderful trend
hmm
blither
1. to talk a lot in a way that does not have much meaning and is not very…
dictionary.cambridge.org
now this blithering
Water vapour is responsible for 90 to 96% of the greenhouse effect
feedbacks in nature tend to be counter to to any change. its called Le Chatelier's principle
btw
restricting the use of fossil fuels will kill millions perhaps even billions
you will not win this argument as the proposed solutions to the non problem i.e. "end fossil fuel use now" and " net zero " are the equivalent of "medieval bleeding" or amputation to address an annoying hangnail
besides it is impossible to cure a mis-diagnosed disease
you want to perform brain surgery to cure a headache

Yes it comprises 90+ percent of all greenhouse gases but its contribution to the overall greenhouse effect that keeps us alive, is said to be 50-55%.
It is not clear to me what climate change is predicted to be likeRemember the tornado and hail warning couple of days ago for S. Ontario and GTA??
Guess what, nothing happened. No tornado and no hail.
They cant even get the weather right, but they supposedly can predict what climate will be like 50 years from now
precisely 50 years from now.
Some people believe climate is going to be bad but not
sure how bad other than more wildfire and hurricanes.
Some predict extinction of humanity (along with other
species) unless we stop burning fossil fuels entirely
within a short time like the next 10 to 20 years.
In my view it is fruitless to debate how reliable climate
change prediction may turn out. It will be more
productive to focus on questioning why not even
those people who bought into the climate BS would
take the initiative to reduce their carbon footprint.
even more fruitless to question the behaviours of others, let alone question the behaviours of those too stupid or lazy to question a false narrative
Which are you, larue?
Too lazy or too stupid to understand forcing vs feedback effects?
Forcings: The initial drivers of climate.
- https://climate.nasa.gov/nasa_science/science/
- Solar Irradiance. Solar irradiance is the change in solar radiation (sunlight) Earth receives from the Sun. Scientists also use evidence from proxy measurements, such as sunspot counts going back centuries and ancient tree rings, to indirectly measure the amount of Sun that reaches Earth’s surface. The Sun has an 11-year sunspot cycle, which causes a very small variation in the Sun’s output reaching Earth.1 The solar cycle is incorporated into climate models.
- Greenhouse gas emissions. Since the Industrial Revolution, concentrations of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) have risen in the atmosphere. Burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and gas has increased the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) from 280 parts per million to 416 parts per million.2 These greenhouse gases absorb and then re-radiate heat in Earth’s atmosphere, which causes increased surface warming.
- Aerosols, dust, smoke, and soot. Very small airborne particles come from both human and natural sources and have various effects on climate. Sulfate aerosols, which result from burning coal, biomass, and volcanic eruptions, tend to cool Earth. Other kinds of particles, such as black carbon, have a warming effect.3 The net effect of aerosols, dust, smoke, and soot is cooling.

Climate feedbacks: processes that can either amplify or reduce the effects of climate forcings. A feedback that increases an initial warming is called a "positive feedback." A feedback that reduces an initial warming is a "negative feedback."
- https://climate.nasa.gov/nasa_science/science/
- Clouds. Clouds have an enormous impact on Earth's climate, reflecting about one-third of the total amount of sunlight that hits Earth's atmosphere back into space. Even small changes in cloud amount, location, and type could have large consequences. A warmer climate causes more water to be held in the atmosphere, leading to an increase in cloudiness and altering the amount of sunlight that reaches Earth's surface. Less heat could get absorbed, which could slow the increased warming. Conversely, changes in cloud cover could lead to faster and greater warming. This is an area of ongoing research.
- Precipitation. Global climate models show that precipitation will generally increase due to the increased amount of water held in a warmer atmosphere. Some regions may dry out instead. Changes in precipitation patterns may present both positive and negative changes in plant growth.
- Forest greening and browning. Natural processes, such as tree growth, remove about half of human carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere every year. Scientists are currently studying where this carbon dioxide goes. The delicate balance between the absorption and release of carbon dioxide by the ocean and the world’s great forested regions is the subject of research by many scientists. There is some evidence that the ability of the ocean or forests to continue absorbing carbon dioxide may decline as the world warms, leading to faster accumulation in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide uptake by plants is unable to offset emissions from human activities.
- Ice albedo. Ice is white and very reflective, in contrast to the ocean surface, which is dark and absorbs heat faster. As the atmosphere warms and sea ice melts, the darker ocean absorbs more heat, causes more ice to melt, and makes Earth warmer overall. The ice-albedo feedback is a very strong positive feedback.
- Water vapor. The most abundant greenhouse gas, it acts as a feedback to amplify climate warming forcings. Water vapor increases as Earth's atmosphere warms, making it an important feedback mechanism to the greenhouse effect.
i am smart enough to peg you for what you are
defining one triatomic black body radiator differently than another triatomic black body radiator in order to fit a false narrative is not science
Decoupling CO2 from Climate Change
This study determines if there is a correlation between rising carbon dioxide levels and global warming. Historical data were reviewed from three different time periods spanning 500 million years. It showed that the curves and trends were too dissimilar to establish a connection. Observations...
exclude the largest contributor to the greenhouse effect (water vapor) because it does not fit their false narrative ?????
exclude clouds because they can not model cloud formation ???????
exclude ozone because it was too difficult to quantify ?????
yet they claim this is settled science
pseudoscience .........pure and simple
and frankfooter will never be able to figure this out..................
- because he dropped out of high school
- because he does not want to figure it out
