Default Carbon dioxide levels surpass 400ppm


Average global levels of carbon dioxide stayed above 400 parts per million, or ppm, through all of March 2015 -- the first time that has happened for an entire month since record keeping first began, according to data released this week by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Yawn. They just dug up an ice core that reportedly shows 18 major climate changes in the last 80 million years. NONE caused by man.

Where's the ****ing warm weather, asshole? It's the middle of May and
we haven't seen an 80 degree day here in Detroit. This has been the
coldest spring in history. I haven't been to the golf course this
year. I don't even have my yacht in the water. I haven't been to my
Yacht Club for martinis this year. I haven't been to my Country Club
for a round of golf. My girlfriend wants to go to the beach soon.
Just where the hell is the global warming?

Science is not about proof, it is about evidence. If you want to argue
against scientific consensus, the burden is on you to demonstrate that
the rise in atmospheric CO2 levels over the last 150 years isn't
substantially the result of burning fossil fuels.

Good luck with that, because the evidence supporting this claim is
pretty overwhelming.

Do you consider that all of the scientific organisations listed below are
lying?


Consensus: 97% of climate scientists agree

Temperature data from four international science institutions. All show
rapid warming in the past few decades and that the last decade has been the
warmest on record.

Multiple studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals1 show that
97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree:
Climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human
activities. In addition, most of the leading scientific organizations
worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position. The
following is a partial list of these organizations, along with links to
their published statements and a selection of related resources.

AMERICAN SCIENTIFIC SOCIETIES
Statement on climate change from 18 scientific associations
"Observations throughout the world make it clear that climate change is
occurring, and rigorous scientific research demonstrates that the
greenhouse gases emitted by human activities are the primary driver."
(2009)2


American Association for the Advancement of Science
"The scientific evidence is clear: global climate change caused by human
activities is occurring now, and it is a growing threat to society."
(2006)3


American Chemical Society
"Comprehensive scientific assessments of our current and potential future
climates clearly indicate that climate change is real, largely attributable
to emissions from human activities, and potentially a very serious
problem." (2004)4


American Geophysical Union
"Human‐induced climate change requires urgent action. Humanity is the major
influence on the global climate change observed over the past 50 years.
Rapid societal responses can significantly lessen negative outcomes."
(Adopted 2003, revised and reaffirmed 2007, 2012, 2013)5


American Medical Association
"Our AMA ... supports the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change’s fourth assessment report and concurs with the scientific
consensus that the Earth is undergoing adverse global climate change and
that anthropogenic contributions are significant." (2013)6


American Meteorological Society
"It is clear from extensive scientific evidence that the dominant cause of
the rapid change in climate of the past half century is human-induced
increases in the amount of atmospheric greenhouse gases, including carbon
dioxide (CO2), chlorofluorocarbons, methane, and nitrous oxide." (2012)7


American Physical Society
"The evidence is incontrovertible: Global warming is occurring. If no
mitigating actions are taken, significant disruptions in the Earth’s
physical and ecological systems, social systems, security and human health
are likely to occur. We must reduce emissions of greenhouse gases beginning
now." (2007)8


The Geological Society of America
"The Geological Society of America (GSA) concurs with assessments by the
National Academies of Science (2005), the National Research Council (2006),
and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) that global
climate has warmed and that human activities (mainly greenhouse‐gas
emissions) account for most of the warming since the middle 1900s." (2006;
revised 2010)9

SCIENCE ACADEMIES
International academies: Joint statement
"Climate change is real. There will always be uncertainty in understanding
a system as complex as the world’s climate. However there is now strong
evidence that significant global warming is occurring. The evidence comes
from direct measurements of rising surface air temperatures and subsurface
ocean temperatures and from phenomena such as increases in average global
sea levels, retreating glaciers, and changes to many physical and
biological systems. It is likely that most of the warming in recent decades
can be attributed to human activities (IPCC 2001)." (2005, 11 international
science academies)10


U.S. National Academy of Sciences
"The scientific understanding of climate change is now sufficiently clear
to justify taking steps to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere." (2005)11

U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES

U.S. Global Change Research Program
"The global warming of the past 50 years is due primarily to human-induced
increases in heat-trapping gases. Human 'fingerprints' also have been
identified in many other aspects of the climate system, including changes
in ocean heat content, precipitation, atmospheric moisture, and Arctic sea
ice." (2009, 13 U.S. government departments and agencies)12

INTERGOVERNMENTAL BODIES

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
“Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from
observations of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures,
widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global average sea level.”13

“Most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the
mid-20th century is very likely* due to the observed increase in
anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations.”14

*IPCC defines ‘very likely’ as greater than 90 percent probability of
occurrence.

Because it isn't. You've already shown that variations in CO2 levels
have taken place over millions of years.

Good luck with that, because the evidence supporting this claim is
pretty overwhelming.


I laugh at you.

We've got the coldest spring on record here in Detroit.

Liberal lies.

And there are no, "climate scientists."

I didn't bother reading the rest of your nonsense. I deleted it all.
