“”CO2 increases follow rather than precede warming.”
I assume you are assuming but not mentioning bounds on that statement? Because it sure does not hold true in a beaker.”
I don’t understand what you are saying. It seems to me, that is EXACTLY what happens in a beaker. Gases are more readily soluble in water as you lower the temperature. Heating water will cause the dissolved gases to leave the solution.
Since this is all about global warming, it’s worth trying to figure out the cause and effect relationship between atmospheric CO2 and global temps.
There is a strong correlation between CO2 levels and Global warming, but correlation isn’t causation. I tend to believe that increased CO2 levels is an Effect of warming rather than its cause.
The tendency for gases to come out of solutions as they are heated is a much more powerfully linked phenomenon than CO2’s effect as a greenhouse gas. Carbon Dioxide is such a minor player as a greenhouse gas that it dooesn’t make sense to consider it the cause of warming like the greenies are preaching.
I’ve read that the cycles show the warming always preceding the CO2 increase by some years which if true, pretty well settles which is cause and which is effect.
Not in a beaker. Not unless the beaker is the size of the World’s combined oceans and takes years to heat up before releasing CO2. If you know about beakers, you should know that colder temperaters and high pressures allow for CO2 absorption. There is a time lag. IF global CO2 levels are causing warming on their own (which mathematically is “spit in the wind” compared to the effect of water vapour), we can expect CO2 levels to rise far inexcess of our own daily production. The Oceans are a CO2 sink.
Personally, I tend toward the fact that the Sun is increasing in intensity. Why do the Greenies (gross, like squishy little boogers) never refute the fact that other planets in our Solar system also show recent sign of warming, and historical warming and cooling periods?
Probably because they are Kool-aid drinking scam artists and con men who don’t care to analyse the facts, only to push the scam.
P.S. Quick, send money to meee to build a Sun Temperature Stabilizer Machine, or we’re all going to DIIIEEEEEEEEE! Quickly, It is urgent that I get this money before you consider analysing any part of what I’m saying! In fact, here’s a free video for your kids, explaining all!
