This must not be allowed because such would reveal the greatest scam in human history. Global Cooling/Global Warming/Climate Change is not about science or logic or even common sense.
Global Cooling/Global Warming/Climate Change is all about fleecing the populace of money and for that money to end up in the pockets of the Global Cooling/Global Warming/Climate Change Doom-Sayers...
What you’re asking is for extremists comprehend the principle of balance the way you do. It can’t be done.
Well, outside of being called a F**kStick, The left loves to use weather as a means of Global Warming.
I do believe hurricane season is Al Gore’s #1 for proof.
Bill Weir of CNN is a dipshit of the highest order and fails to see his own ignorance.
Hey Bill, A Hurricane is weather. A hurricane has been weather longer than your putrid ass.
The answer is in your question. There’s no such thing as global warming. If Carl Sagan hadn’t been a pot-head, the ‘greenhouse effect’ would never have been heard of. He coined that phrase only because he and his cahoots couldn’t explain why Venus was hot.
I jumped ahead of the thread. Sorry
Al Gore was promised a part of the NWO. In order to get everybody onboard was to create a crises that everyone must be involved.
They gave him Global Warming. All of academia jumped on board.
Do I need to bring up all of the calamities since 1945 that have been foisted upon the good people of the United States?
Start with Godzilla vs King Kong and go from there.
Not proper analogy unless the ice is elevated 100 feet in the air over the arctic sea.
Here this will convince you. Take a glass and fill it half full of dirt. Then add 1 inch of water and fill that with ice then mark the displacement. Watch it melt and you have it— no increase in displacement. Pretty simple.
The ‘I believe’ part is only in reference to the analogy I used. I should have phrased it as ‘I like to view temperature correction as a trough’.
His analogy is only partially flawed. His analogy is correct for sea ice... melting sea ice would not substantially affect the world’s sea levels one bit, since its already displacing its water weight in volume as it floats.
Your analogy is correct for land-ice, mostly. Ice on land melting into the oceans would raise the sea levels, though there would be an additional, unpredictable effect based on the fact that the land would rise a small amount without the weight of the ice upon it (such as happened with the North American continent after the glacial retreat following the last ice age).
That said, even if ALL the ice on earth melted (and even the most extreme ‘Global Warming’ scenarios would not raise temperatures enough to create a totally ice-free globe) you wouldn’t get ‘Waterworld’ ... there’s just not enough water. Sea levels would rise about 200 feet. And more realistically, since Antarctica (where 90% of the land ice is) stays pretty much well below freezing always, even under an extreme Global Warming scenario, it’s still going to be frozen. Greenland is a different matter, but that’s a lot less ice involved there ... it might raise sea levels by about 20 feet. That would kind of suck for coastal areas, but remember that it won’t happen in one giant tsunami... ice takes time to melt, especially if the temperature is only barely above freezing... the time it would take to ‘melt’ Greenland would likely be longer than a thousand years.
In short, the crazy alarmist-type movies you see of New York vanishing under a giant wave are not science, they’re fiction.
“Water cools the earth.”
?
I reread your post and it makes much sense.
He has it right. The water evaporation process absorbs heat, cooling the waters surface. The gaseous water vapor rises til it cools, then condenses, giving off the heat it absorbed when it evaporated
In a major system, the volume of water being evaporated then condensed can be very, very large and the amount of heat being transferred from the water to the atmosphere is huge enough to make hurricanes.
