Dimming the sun: The answer to global warming?

Scientists are proposing an ingenious but as-yet-unproven way to tackle climate change: spraying sun-dimming chemicals into the Earth's atmosphere. The research by scientists at Harvard and Yale universities, published in the journal Environmental Research Letters, proposes using a technique known as stratospheric aerosol injection, which they say could cut the rate of global warming in half.

What could possibly go wrong?

I posted this in 2007 in my website. The interesting story behind this is that where it originally appeared the publication it appeared in was sold to a competitor and they spiked it.

EARTH TO COOL DOWN WARNS GEO SCIENTIST

Scientific reports from Canada and Greenland has indicated that the the shrinking arctic ice sheets have begun to replace themselves rapidly. Strongly suggesting the earth instead of warming, is beginning to cool down. It is still not known (or proven) if this is the result because of the reduced rate of sun spot activity.

Canadian geo scientist Professor R. Timothy Patterson of Carelton University is urging a go-slow on the rush for governments to “Play God” with global warming legislative blaming this on CO2 (carbon dioxide) discharges. Legislating corrections attempting to control a natural cyclic occurrence caused by; sun spots, the magnetic solar wind, and cyclic earth magnetic polarity reversal, among other natural occurrences including volcanism, meteors etc. Probably plays a very significant role in climate change. Yet ignorantly blaming man made CO2 emissions for climatic change. which is becoming a rapidly discredited and minuscule cause of global warming in his article published by Canada’s Financial Post. 6/20/07

Patterson was selected by the Canadian government to study the fluctuations in certain types of fish populations.
While doing so the Canadian Geo-Scientist found a correlation when certain species of fish had high population and then drastic drop offs. He discovered these fluctuations corresponded with sun spot activity and solar radiation vs cosmic activity. When earth cooling occurred.

Studying deep fjords along the Western Canadian coast where deep pools of low oxidation water exist. The Patterson study reached deep into the earths recent past of 4000 years of undisturbed sediments. Patterson found that when aquatic activity was highest and lowest in those collected sediments having high aquatic content had matched known solar protection when the magnetic wind was highest, and dropped off when earth magnetic fields activities were lowest.Thus causing cosmic radiation to intensify.

Then because the earth became unprotected by its magnetic fields from galactic cosmic activity. Patterson cites several accepted theories which concludes this then created cloud activity during such periods which increased drastically. Thus cooling earth and bringing in its ice ages.

In his presentation here is a professor urging more scientific study (like Pope Benedict)is needed. That politicians including Al Gore, of The Earth Is Flat Society, don’t know what the hell they’re talking about. Strongly suggesting that the global warming may be caused by exhaling politicos rather than serious scientific examination.

Patterson seems to be saying before Canadians start investing in palm trees they should be considering better parkas because what goes up must come down and the Mexicans better move over for a reverse population flow. The story was featured in The Drudge Report, World Net Daily, and also reviewed and source linked in Free Republic and The US Mat . But lost due to source link changes . http://www.theusmat.com/index.htm

Dimming the sun: The answer to global warming?

Doubtful anybody is seriously thinking about that as a solution.

It's more about them trying to make things seem so desperately out of control, that they're proposing scary scenarios and scary and desperate solutions.

Problem that those idiots won't dare to answer is, "what would be the solution if the earth goes into another ice age and freezes completely?". How would they reverse the ice age? How would the "warm up" the planet? Burn gasoline, or liquid hydrogen? Warm up the sun?

Anyhow, it's all about scaring people to death, and making them believe that the point of desperation is soon upon us, therefore, desperate solutions are called for. Only the idiot liberal voters would fall for such crap.

Mother Nature has already arranged this. The Sun is entering into a solar minimum phase. Bundle up.

If C02 is such a killer why is there big business in making machines that produce it in large quantities for commercial green house operations?

They have been doing this for twenty years already. Now they going to justify it. The main guy behind this at Harvard, David Keith (weasel) is promoting this and stands to profit from it.

This from the mentality that thought plastic bags were an excellent and necessary replacement for paper bags a few decades ago.

Poison us all , one of they’re great ideas to stop global warming is population control

From the same brain trust that wanted to spread coal dust on the ice caps to prevent the next Ice Age, I give you DIM SUN.

No, not the Chinese version of smorgasbord, that’s dim sum.

They have the dim part right, anyways...

Nuclear winter, without the radiation. What could possibly go wrong?

And never expect a scientist will come up with a finding that conflicts with his funding.

And if they overshoot and the earth starts to cool due to a solar minimum? What happens then? How cold do they want it to be?

these idiots.

the sun is entering a less active period that is going to be a grand solar minimum. we are going to be in far worse trouble.

Back in the 1970’s some “experts” came up with the idea to spray the poles with a mixture of coal dust and oil to absorb the sun’s rays to keep the planet warmer.

No doubt, it would only take all the money on the planet...administered by the geniuses who came up with this cockeyed idea. Not one penny of taxpayer funding should be involved in stupid scams such as this.

Speaking of carbon-based forms, diamonds are pure carbon. We need to inform these morons and offer to take the diamonds off their hands.
