Global Warming Cont...

[DogtorEvil]

You amatuer sceince/climatologist crack me up. I think I will listen to the majority of the EXPERTS.

Honestly, Dawgbitten, do you really wan't to compare GPA's, degrees, etc.?

[DogtorEvil]

Sure would like to watch you depose these guys about global warming. What would be your first question?

It would be a pretty easy set of questions....

Prove, conclusivelely, without speculation, what has caused the recent moderate increase in average global temperature.

Prove, conclusively, that the recent increase in average global temperature is due to CO2 emissions from human origin vs. any other source.

I rarely see a large SUV with 7 or 8 passengers in it.

Bill, how efficient is a nuclear power plant?

How efficient is a nuclear plant? You're the one extoling the virtues of alternative energy sources, certainly YOU should be able to show to us mere mortals the differences in efficiencies between coal fired, nuclear and gas fired power plants. I am sure the non-biased bastion of realclimate.org can provide us with these #'s.

I will post a short resume of the scientists on Real Climate if you will do the same for the people on the links you just posted.

do it

This would be a very easy deposition. Unfortunately. I have been through a number of these. Your "side" would lose relatively quickly.

The first question would be to prove, conclusively, that the recent, moderate increase in global warming is a result of human influence and that there are no other variables that significantly affect the increase in average global temperature

Dogtor, what is unusual is the the rapid increase in the atmospheric CO2 levels. Nothing like it has happen before as far we know, at least the last 750,000 years. Mebbe in the last 10 million years but we are talking about what is going on "out of the ordinary". To say the current gw is "normal variability" is total BS.

And yes I've taken a stats class.

I don't believe you've taken (and passed) a stats class. If you had, there is no way that you could state that the recent increase in average global temperature is due to man-made CO2 emissions. There is no statistical evidence that shows this,

[DogtorEvil]

You have a poor understanding of science. Any researcher that finds evidence that AWG is NOT taking place would receive plenty of attention and more research funds. AWG is a popular theory because science has showed that it is credible.

You're missing something here...

The most accurate measurements of surface tempertures are from the US.

The US is the biggest producer of man-made CO2 emissions.

The US has not seen an increase in surface temperature.

Visit this site and you will see that climate scientists are actively considering all evidence regarding AWG. There is an active discussion if you want to join in. There is a lot of contrary opinions, but as a scientist I'm sure you will be able to judge what is wheat and what is chaff.

Can you quote any site other than one that has an obviously biased agenda?

[DogtorEvil]

Most vehicles driving around have just one passenger, maybe 2.

If you want efficiency in hauling a heavy object get an elephant.

this is a very articulate and reasonable argument for making your case for "the sky is falling".

[DogtorEvil]

Why don't you ask them a sincere question/statement and see what kind of response you get instead of relying on the statment of a person whom you know ABSOLUTELY nothing about. My impression of the website is that it appears to me to be balanced and fair.

and do you think that the Fox news channel is balanced and fair?

Doesn't matter. I obviously win hands down in reading comprehension and my acute ability of observation of the world in which I live.

To Salty................

Please give us your definition of AVERAGE GLOBAL TEMPERATURE and explain how it is calculated FOR A SINGLE POINT IN TIME.

This should be good.

Bill, send NOAA an email and you can get your answer straight from the horse's mouth. BTW, it sure looks like your gov't believes that AGW is for real.

Maybe I will, but I would feel obligated to search the site first to see if the question was answered. That would distract me from posting on this board just when my post-count is starting to skyrocket.

No need to rationalize not doing it.
