Ping to Curiosity,

Note, per our previous thread, that there is still very credible and objectionable scientific data and research that challenges the impact of Man Made CO2.

If you would like to debate these finer issues, then there is real progress being made. But as I said, Labeling us as “GW deniers” for citing debatable science behind the causes of global warming proves that the current alarmists propaganda has crossed the line from scientific in nature to religious. When science is thrown out and debate is stifled, then one can only rely on faith. I, therefore, question your “faith” in Man Made Global Warming.

(Note: I am not turning this into religious discussion as I am a devout Catholic. But use theses “radical” words to emphasize a point.)

I am also a devout Catholic.

I call you a GW denier because you are denying basic scientific facts and bringing up red herrings that are irrelevent to the question.

Like this business of Water Vapor. For the last time, yes, water vapor accounts for the bulk of the greenhouse effect. No one denies this. Even the most alarmist of the GW fanatics admits this.

But just because water vaper is the largest greenhouse-causing material doesn't mean it's the only one. The very same article at the top of this thread to says it only accounts for about 70% of the greenhouse effect, and that fluctuates, since the concentration of water vapor also fluctuates.

That leaves 30% of the greenhouse effect to other gasses, the bulk of which are CO2 and methane, which don't flucutate much. 30% is a significant amount, and it's enough to make a difference.

So please, stop repeating this silly and fallacious argument that CO2 doesn't matter because water vapor is a more important greenhouse-causing material. Just becasue CO2 is not the most important doesn't mean it's not important.
