Earth's atmosphere is rising because of climate change, a new study shows.
Weather balloon measurements, taken in the Northern Hemisphere over the past 40 years, reveal that the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere — called the troposphere — has been expanding upward at a rate of roughly 164 feet (50 meters) per decade, and climate change is the cause, according to findings published Nov.r 5 in the journal Science Advances. ...
...Climate change isn't the only human-made driver of the rising tropopause. The stratosphere — the layer above the troposphere — is also shrinking....

So Joementia has been busting some real honkers lately?
“Where is their control planet?”
*****************
I submit Mars. It has enough of an atmosphere to fly a copter and roughly the same land area as earth to absorb sunlight. And the atmosphere is 95% CO2 So if there is a green house effect we should see it there; but we don’t. The surface warms in the summer to 25 C but cools at night to well below zero C.
What do we find in the atmosphere? Airplanes! Thousands of them every day. All polluting and dusting the atmosphere with hot jet exhaust gasses. Who invented airplanes? White people! So yes, racism does factor into this!
The best news about all those predictions is we successfully did whatever was needed since none of the bad stuff has ever happened.
Time to lay back, we got this.
Cool. There are more to go to. We’re good.
The climate cult assumes with no evidence that all the “climate change” is due solely to human activity.
Nothing in nature remains static forever.
I have bad gas due to climate change.
:)
Yeah, that’s right. We bad!
Who needs these worry warts?
Screw science.
I’ll KNOW its a problem when I can’t breathe.
It isn’t like we could do ANYTHING about it anyway, like create a gain of function virus, release it on the world, produce a killer vaxxine and infect everyone on the planet with it.
They’ve gotten away with the pandemic/vaxxine hoax so far.... why not trot out climate change fear porn also? The timing couldn’t be better.
The STUPID humans fell for the pandemic/vaxxine hoax, what better time to indoctrinate the masses with the climate change/global warming hoax.
Slightly off topic...
Since the quantity of atmospheric CO2 is increasing, I have wondered what gas or gases - if any - are decreasing?
Or, is the total mass of the atmosphere increasing, which means that atmospheric pressure is now fractionally higher than 14.7 psi?
Just as bad as them saying Climate change isn't the only human-made driver. There is "climate change". Always has been and will always continue to be. However, there is absolutely no evidence that it is human made. One massive volcanic eruption spouts more crap into the atmosphere than man has in the past 250 years combined.
More global warming nonsense. From the scientific community that never lies.
Marked for later
There used to be a conspiracy theory that the earth was round and orbited around the sun. They also said the sun was a large fire.
Weather balloons cannot measure atmosphere that accurately. This is junk science.
As the Earth’s lower atmosphere rises, it means that eventually the lower atmosphere will leave us entirely - we will miss it for sure. Either that or it will expand so big that it will pop.
The phrase “the sky is falling, run!”, now replaced with “the sky is rising, run!”
I think it might be on topic.
Here’s an interesting article about atmospheric escape. There’s Jean’s escape which is how helium and hydrogen slough off on a normal day, there’s polar wind, that sloughs off hydrogen and helium, and there’s hydrodynamic or planetary wind escape, regulated by the equatorial stratosphere, with hydrogen capable of dragging oxygen, argon, lighter isotopes and carbon dioxide off with it under certain temperature conditions. UV decomposition of carbon monoxide can accelerate the atoms to escape velocity.
So if the lower atmosphere is expanding, which would mean increased atmospheric pressure at sea level, what increase would drive upward pressure on the exosphere? Would hydrodynamic escape increase proportionately? Would that be a self-limiting ‘valve’? And how far can the exosphere expand, to what temperature, wihout being fried by the Sun? How thin can the exosphere get without being swept away by escape mechanisms or ionic storms? Is it even worth worrying about if a bleak atmospheric future is 2 billion years from now?
