Share this…FacebookTwitterAnother study finds CO2’s greenhouse effect contribution and climate sensitivity are much smaller than claimed by the IPCC and proponents of anthropogenic global warming. Ollila (2019) reconfigures the “consensus”-derived greenhouse effect radiation values and finds (a) LW absorption only adds 45% to Earth’s present atmospheric greenhouse effect, (b) water vapor dominates (76.4%) the total […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterFundamental tenets of the CO2 greenhouse effect hyphothesis aren’t supported by real-world, observed evidence. Image Source: Kennedy and Hodzic, 2019 I. CO2 warms the planet by 7.2°C? According to the IPCC and other sources, when CO2’s atmospheric concentration ranges between 0.03% and 0.04% (300-400 parts per million, or ppm), it literally warms the air […]

Mainstream scientists sympathetic to the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) paradigm have nonetheless reported the overall greenhouse effect forcing has been flat to declining throughout this period. 1. Cess and Udelhofen, 2003 Due to the downward trend in […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterA plot of ice core data from Greenland reveals that CO2 does not drive temperatures. At Facebook, Gregory Wrightstone posted a chart plotting atmospheric CO2 concentration reconstructed from Dome C Ice Core versus temperature that was reconstructed from the GISP 2 Ice Core. According to global warming scientists, there’s supposed to be tandem movement […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterEarth’s atmosphere contains 400 ppm CO2 (0.04%). Mars has a 950,000 ppm (95%) CO2 atmosphere. But Mars has surface temperatures that are about -75°C colder on average than Earth’s because atmospheric density, or pressure, is the “game changer” largely determining planetary temperatures.

Share this…FacebookTwitterPaleoclimate evidence shows there is little to no link between atmospheric CO2 concentration and relative sea level. Venice, the treasure of Italy, is a city built on a mud swamp. Consequently, in the last 100 years it has sunk about 25 cm, or 2.5 millimeters per year (Munaretto et al., 2012). The lagoon city […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterIt’s been acknowledged by mainstream scientists for years now that at certain locations on planet Earth, rising carbon dioxide levels cause cooling. It’s now been determined that rising CO2 also causes “negligible” cooling (or warming) depending on the season. A few years ago a seminal paper (Schmithüsen et al., 2015) was published in Geophysical […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterMainstream climate science claims CO2 molecules “slow down the rate of heat-loss from the surface” like a blanket does. And yet the rate at which a CO2 molecule retains or slows down heat loss is, at most, a negligible 0.0001 of a second. A CO2 concentration of 300 ppm versus 400 ppm will therefore […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterTwo more additions to the steadily accumulating evidence CO2 plays an insignificant to negligible role in climate change have recently been published in the scientific literature. Last year, Dr. Rex J. Fleming, a former NOAA climate scientist who earned both his Master’s and Ph.D in meteorology, published a paper (Fleming, 2018) in the Environmental Earth Sciences journal […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterNASA has conceded that climate models lack the precision required to make climate projections due to the inability to accurately model clouds. Clouds have the capacity to dramatically influence climate changes in both radiative longwave (the “greenhouse effect”) and shortwave. Cloud cover domination in longwave radiation In the longwave, clouds thoroughly dwarf the CO2 […]
