How,for goodness sake,anyone can reason out 'sidereal time' using
planetary dynamics is beyond me insofar as it is literally a flat
Earth ideology which cannot express the rotation of the Earth at all
latitudes where the Earth turns 15 degrees per hour with given
geographical distances corresponding to each latitude .

* *Beauty is in the simplicity-

You are trying to pass off a crude conclusion as being simple but it
will always be crude conclusion therefore as long as the 'sidereal
time' reasoning exists and applied to planetary dynamics then so will
these holocaust conditions prevail.The ground zero for speculating
future global temperatures based on a single criteria of a minor
atmospheric gas ,as crude as you can possibly get,is back in the late
17th century attempt to model planetary dynamics and solar system
structure using timekeeping averages so the center of attention for
genuine science is not in Copenhagen but in a small newsgroup forum
where the pool of people who could handle the technical details is
smaller still.

The circumpolar rotation of the constellations acting as a gauge for
the planetary dynamic of daily rotation through 360 degrees is
astonishingly crude and humanity is paying dearly for listening to
people who have built concepts on that intellectual vacuous position
of allowing the 24 hour/calendar timekeeping averages to dictate
observations from a rotating and orbiting Earth
