I did an RRTM run with H2O mole fraction 0.00025 (approximating the Arctic) and got the following results. Removal of all CO2 decreases downwelling longwave radiation by 14%, and increasing CO2 by 10X increases downwelling longwave radiation by 7% So … Continue reading →

The two images below have a 1% difference in absorption of visible light. Can you tell which is which?

RRTM shows that removal of all methane from the atmosphere would only decrease downwelling longwave radiation in the tropics by 0.1%. A 10X increase in methane would only increase the greenhouse effect by 0.3% in the tropics. The catastrophic global … Continue reading →

I took the radiate transfer model used by NCAR (RRTM) and ran it with tropical humidity (0.025 mole fraction H2O)  and three levels of CO2. Results are shown below. 0 ppm   392.3 w/m² 364 ppm   397.5 w/m² 3640 ppm   … Continue reading →

Scientists knew a century ago that continents had to move, and that major climate change was natural. It took many decades for the consensus to accept continental drift, and the “consensus” still claims that climate change is man made. Conclusion : the … Continue reading →

Green energy means stealing green bills from taxpayers wallets. In December, the Navy purchased 450,000 gallons of biofuels at $26.75 a gallon, POLITICO Pro reported. In comparison, the cost of petroleum is just a few dollars per gallon. Groups rushing … Continue reading →

Drastic changes needed to curb N2O, most potent greenhouse gas Meat consumption in the developed world needs to be cut by 50 per cent per person by 2050 if we are to meet the most aggressive strategy, set out by … Continue reading →

80 degrees of global warming in five days in 1934. Hansen would have declared this to be impossible without the emissions from your SUV. 1934: What would become one of the hottest summers on record in Iowa began to intensify … Continue reading →
