Hansen points out in this video that the methane global warming scam is nothing but BS, because the concentration of CH4 is far to low to have any meaningful effect. Look for alarmists to ignore their prophet.

The low concentration of CH4 is precisely the reason why it is calculated to have many times the strength of CO2 as a green house gas.
Those calculations assume no water vapor in the atmosphere. Made by complete morons.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but my understanding was that 1) molecule for molecule, water vapor absorbs roughly the same amount of LWIR energy as CO2, , and 2) it exists in the atmosphere at 25 to 100X the concentration of CO2 (polar to equator). So – question: given that physical information, how could anyone not include its effects in any calculations?
The absorption spectra of H2O is much wider than CO2.
Heh, festival of con-science.
Or maybe Festivus of Conscience.
Skip the Feats of Strength and go straight to the Airing of Grievances.
I’ve just listened to the 21 minute mark where he precisely states CH4 as 23 times the strength of CO2.
He’s using reverse psychology – he’s knows we think everything he says is wrong, so he’s saying something he thinks we’d agree with in the hope that we will just disagree.
But he’s wrong about that as well. 🙂
He looks like a Leprechaun
Homer Simpson without the wit and insight.
Hehehe, this is funny stuff. Especially the “23 times the strength of CO2” garbage. News Flash: 23 x 0 = 0 ! … ROFLMAO
The reason CH4 content doesn’t increase in the atmosphere is that it rather quickly just chemically reacts to break down to CO2 and H2O. So the whole nonsense of “23 times” is just that – nonsense. It’s “what if ” speculation. They just love to hear themselves talk dont they.
Time to fill in all the swamps and extermite all the termites.
I like that they attacked him for endorsing conservatives.
That was not expected, but was definitely telling about who his audience is.
