"Chan and Liu (2004) argue that current models are not yet sufficiently good for addressing the question regarding global warming and typhoons (A typhoon is technically the same as a hurricane, the difference being that they form over the western Pacific or the Indean Ocean). But the GFDL study...

So how did Plimer calculate his 440 ppm? Because nobody else except him claims this. If you look online you can only find websites citing his outrageous claim, but no other scientists have deduced this number.

The part where you discuss "biased selection" and ironically you cherry-pick a half-century old discredited paper. Here's an article which discusses Callendar's errors, and the items which he got right: http://www.aip.org/history/climate/co2.htm Yes, you are practicing biased data...

I'll just quote this for you: "Air mixes through the firn down to the depth at which bubbles are closed off. Therefore new air is trapped in ice that is significantly older. This depth occurs in ice of different ages - i.e. younger ice in higher accumlation cores, and this leads to the...

Orbits do drive warming, and that warming causes land and melt based (and possibly ocean based) CO2 emissions, that much is true. But again, as Alley points out repeatedly in the very video which you posted, CO2 is the cause of the current warming. That CO2 is man made -- and he even describes...

This is good news!

If only someone could calculate out whether it's cheaper in the long run to mitigate the impact or to work on prevention. Oh right, they did. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

The lines are as straight as I can make them with my mouse and the limited amount of time I wanted to spend on it. They're off by a pixel. If that's your best excuse for ignoring what's clearly there you'll have to do better, as others might notice your gymnastics. As for the video, you...

Now that you've made it clear that you've just made it up, it's easy to understand.

I'm still waiting for the New York Times article about Boehner's alleged affair. The New York Post promised that it was coming out. I guess that one's already down the memory hole.

By what taxonomy do you classify Fox as "center-right?"

Yes, that's called a feedback loop. Both happen, in fact. The reason that CO2 is emitted is due to melting permafrost, among other reasons. Which makes is doubly important to not start the cycle in the first place. Here, I drew lines on your chart where the CO2 increases. Notice the...

It was. Google IPCC and read their publications.

Any thoughts as to how the scientists dodge all that lava as they take their measurements?

Great presentation -- I loved the part when the audience is actually laughing at the email of a climate denier. His quotes from your video "CO2 keeps being the only explanation for a lot of what happened which is validated -- which works."

"Whoever wrote it?" It was written by Tim Ball. You may have heard of him. He's the Tim Ball you just cited as an expert. It's from a September 26, 2006 letter to the Royal Society, Dr. Tim Ball, the leading signatory, identifies himself as "Professor of Climatology, University of Winnipeg."...

Trader666: Here's a biography on your second article's author, Dr. Tim Ball: "Dr. Ball is a renowned environmental consultant and former [retired] professor of climatology at the University of Winnipeg. Dr. Ball has served on many local and national committees etc. etc." Only one...

Since you think it shows the exact opposite of what everyone can see that it shows, I think I understand where you're going wrong. The chart that you posted runs with the most recent period at the left hand side. In other words, the most recent time period is at the left, with the oldest time...

The CBO does. "In August, CBO projected a slow rebound in employment, with the rate falling to just below 9 percent by the end of 2011, and then declining more rapidly to near its long-run sustainable level of 5 percent by the end of 2014." --...

I see, I should have "immediately recognized it" as measurements coming from a single ice-core, and I need to ignore the fact that there are three lines and three different y-axis labels (which is a big no-no in statistics, as anyone familiar with statistics would recognize), and that we are to...
