As the Planet has been COOLING for the last 2 or 3 years, Apparently this new GREENHOUSE GAS isn’t as tough as these Enviroweenies make it out to be!!

Isn't it also used in the manufacture of solar panels?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was.

Lotta BS in the air too, mostly in this century. Is there a satellite to measure this?

YOu know they will use every chemical or even invent new ones until they get their way. Lies have never been a problem to science - that is politically based.

OMG...5400 tons in an atmosphere that weighs 4.4 million billion tons.

I’m not sure what they measured this with , the article mentions using Nasa funded stuff,, I would suspect they used some pretty sophisticated equipment to reach this conclusion.

and Yes, all kinds of stuff in the air. Progress . ;-) cough.

A pesky little detail, eh?

GW believers hate those little details...like manmade CO2 is about .016% of the atmosphere.

Now that it’s becoming clear that the CO2 argument is crap, they have to invent something else. The fact is, however, that the most potent greenhouse gas and the one in highest concentration is good old WATER VAPOR. It’s because of water vapor that the planet is livable. Let’s see them call H2O
a pollutant.

Compared to the amount of hydrogen hydroxide vapors in the atmosphere, everything else pales in relation to greenhouse warming. The only solution to this problem is to cover any standing pools of this vile substance with a covering of some sort. Perhaps mylar. I don't know how much we'd need to cover all the HOH exposed to the atmosphere and I don't want to calculate the area of all oceans, lakes, rivers and puddles,etc.

Global warming is a crock.

If it were 17,000 times more potent than CO2, it would only produce 0.01% as much greenhouse warming as CO2.

5,400 tons of nitrogen trifluoride

750,000,000,000 tons of CO2

Now if that was nitrogen triiodide (triiodine nitride) I'd be worried at 5 grams, let alone a metric ton! Ah, high school chemistry - it was a blast, literally.

Incidentally, NF3's primary use seems to be in semiconductor fabrication ... now wasn't upstate NY slapping high fives over a new fab coming to town? Sounds like this story is in prep for the environmental impact study.

Why 17 ?

750000000000 * 0.0001 / 5400 = 13888.88888888....

Sounds like this story is in prep for the environmental impact study.

Good call...I wouldn't doubt it a bit. The same was done with a study about six months ago about contamination of the water system with various chemicals measured in parts per trillion.

Here's an email I sent to Rush about it:

The AP released a "six month study" of pollutants in drinking water about four weeks ago that mentioned concentrations in parts per billion and even more intriguing, parts per trillion. I immediately recognized that this was an environmental nazi hit job. It was followed up by the local newspapers by interviewing local water commissioners, and was then followed by a poll showing drinking water pollution being the number one environmental concern. Here is the story:

http://www.metrowestdailynews.com/homepage/x1574803042

I tracked down the source of the study, and lo and behold, it is the Environmental Working Group. The are the same ones that brought us the pesticides in baby food scare, and the whatever in women's cosmetic scare, PCB's in Salmon scare...etc.

Here is some background on them:

http://www.undueinfluence.com/ewg.htm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_Working_Group

http://www.capitalresearch.org/pubs/pdf/x3800748694.pdf

They are under the Soros' Tides Foundation umbrella.

The fact that this story at that time did not make much sense was noticed by Gallup also...

http://www.gallup.com/poll/104932/Polluted-Drinking-Water-No-Concern-Before-Report.aspx

I figured it was just the normal disinformation done by the envirowhackos, but something happened today that made me write to you.....Senator Feingold wants to drop the word "navigable" from the Clean Water Act giving the Feds control over every pond, stream, seep, rivulet, and puddle in the US and the quality of drinking water was mentioned as a reason for changing the language.

Bingo!!! This campaign was so well choreographed it is scary. Maybe you could take this info and expose the people behind it and keep small concentrations of water in the hands of the people that own the property.
