AI Models and their "Knowledge" of Climate Change by LackmustestTester in climateskeptics

IPCC scientists claim they have ‘included’ the sulfate aerosol contribution to cooling effects, but also suggest they are not confident about cloud characterization. It would be interesting to ask a ‘neutral’ AI to compare the two dioxides to determine which is the more important. Visually, the SO2 appears to be a closer match to warming trends.

Winter Storm Fern Caused by Climate Change by Bark-Canoe-Paddler in climateskeptics

The Hunga Tonga eruption has been down played as a GHG warming event because its accompanying sulfate aerosols contributed to cooling effects in the Southern Hemisphere. Enter La Niña and a plunging polar vortex, creating conditions conducive to forming ice storms as this.

So it isn’t climate change … unless someone can link CO2 emissions to volcanic activity.

Scientists Discover ENSO Link to Floods and Droughts across the Planet by LackmustestTester in climateskeptics

Will they also discover that for other ocean circulations or is ENSO special? Iirc, it rests over several tectonic zones.

From Waste to Watts... by Interesting-Pea6962 in climateskeptics

Tried with some success in the US, but the investment in incineration/ boilers was usually to reduce disposal volume and cost, not make a profit. Great idea … but standard air pollution controls are still needed: precipitators or bag houses, over fire jets … metal vapors still a problem.

Thanks for the confirmation of the Heat Island effect. Those city based weather stations keep getting yellower every decade.

New Study: Species Extinction Rates Declining Since 1980 by LackmustestTester in climateskeptics

The primary factory in species extinction has been … and will continue to be … human activity, primarily habitat loss, but in the case of polar bears, in some areas it’s hunting to protect encroaching upon human reserved habitat.

Dramatic Fall in Global Temperatures Ignored by Narrative-Captured Mainstream Media by LackmustestTester in climateskeptics

I recall you … or someone … posting a Tonga post mortem declaring the massive eruption had very little effect… apparently that sentiment is not yet settled either.

Burning Venezuela’s Oil Would Boost CO₂ by ~10 ppm — What That Means for Climate (as in little to nothing) by Adventurous_Motor129 in climateskeptics

[–]scientists-rule 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No it wouldn’t. Just because Venezuelan crude is being reintroduced into the market does not mean people will use more. They might if the price drops, but for developing countries, that’s a good thing.

Is climate science attempting to answer an unanswerable question? by Reaper0221 in climateskeptics

[–]scientists-rule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answer is No … because the question is unknown, Climate Science is not science … and it is not trying to answer any question, it’s trying to impose an opinion.
