Not 97% but .3% of Climatologists agree.

Did you watch the video ? You could learn from that ten year old. He knows more about science than you do. LOL

Hey look - we have a video of FC as a 10 year old - when he was already a global warming alarmist.
It is a shame that a micro-experiment of CO2 in a jar has nothing to do with how the entire earth's climate works.
Were you upset in elementary school when they made you ride the short bus after your global warming rants?

Green energy sure is hard on the environment.

wow... more proof agw nutters can't think in systems.
Here is a real experiment / observation in our atmosphere...
http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2012/22mar_saber/
Mlynczak is the associate principal investigator for the SABER instrument onboard NASAâs TIMED satellite. SABER monitors infrared emissions from Earthâs upper atmosphere, in particular from carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitric oxide (NO), two substances that play a key role in the energy balance of air hundreds of km above our planetâs surface.
âCarbon dioxide and nitric oxide are natural thermostats,â explains James Russell of Hampton University, SABERâs principal investigator. âWhen the upper atmosphere (or âthermosphereâ) heats up, these molecules try as hard as they can to shed that heat back into space.â
Thatâs what happened on March 8th when a coronal mass ejection (CME) propelled in our direction by an X5-class solar flare hit Earthâs magnetic field. (On the âRichter Scale of Solar Flares,â X-class flares are the most powerful kind.) Energetic particles rained down on the upper atmosphere, depositing their energy where they hit. The action produced spectacular auroras around the poles and significant1 upper atmospheric heating all around the globe.
âThe thermosphere lit up like a Christmas tree,â says Russell. âIt began to glow intensely at infrared wavelengths as the thermostat effect kicked in.â
For the three day period, March 8th through 10th, the thermosphere absorbed 26 billion kWh of energy. Infrared radiation from CO2 and NO, the two most efficient coolants in the thermosphere, re-radiated 95% of that total back into space.

also ask the kid...
how does such a tiny percentage of greenhouse gases make a difference in the earths atmosphere?
The models and the papers speculate co2 causes clouds to form....
Then ask him according to current scientific knowledge / speculation when we introduce co2 into the atmosphere will those clouds be white or dark... high or low... cause more warming or cooling.
answer... nasa admits they do not know. see a few pages back in this thread.

Don't clouds keep Earth cooler?
Water in the atmosphere also acts as a greenhouse gas. The atmosphere contains a lot of water. This water can be in the form of a gasâwater vaporâor in the form of a liquidâclouds. Clouds are water vapor that has cooled and condensed back into tiny droplets of liquid water.
Clouds as seen from space.
Earth's clouds as seen from space.
Water in the clouds holds in some of the heat from Earth's surface. But the bright white tops of clouds also reflect some of the sunlight back to space. So with clouds, some energy from the Sun never even reaches Earth's surface.
How much the clouds affect the warming or cooling of Earth's surface is one of those tricky questions that several NASA missions are aiming to answer.

It, and other similar experiments prove CO2 absorbs and then re-radiates infra-red heat radiation. Radiation that would otherwise pass through the air.
This is a key concept.
I assume that you understand it? Because it's real important.
Let's take this one small simple step at time. We have Republicans present.
So. Do you agree that CO2 molecules have this physical property?
Again. I can't stress enough. This is essential climate science 101 that must be understood before we go further.
jerm, gwb, fulcrum? Understand?
