Hothouse Earth: Latest crap from the warmist establishment, gleefully blown up by the BBC

Image: SCIENTISTS ISSUE ‘ABSURD’ DOOMSDAY PREDICTION, WARN OF A ‘HOTHOUSE EARTH’

Imagine the atmosphere was an 8″ wall in a house, fitted with isolation and built according to up to date, modern standard, top to bottom. Such walls do not allow for rapid temperature changes inside the house.

That is not the kind of atmosphere we have, that would be something equivalent to the atmosphere on Venus.

What we have would be equivalent to tent fabric where the temperature inside the tent changes rapidly according to weather. If it is sunny, it gets very warm, when the sun goes away it gets cold, fast.

But not most of the time in the summer time, except if you put up your tent in the desert .. It all depends on water vapor (latent heat).

Doesn’t matter how much CO2 you put out through your breathing, temperature doesn’t get impressed (warmer) in the tent.

A “hot house” because of CO2 is impossible, but if we put out enough Carbon Dioxide it will get colder as the atmosphere grows bigger (more CO2 also means more Oxygen = bigger atmosphere) and if the atmosphere grows bigger it will be able to hold more water vapor, clouds and moist, which will prevent the temperature to rise.

Compare the moist Amazonas (nice and warm around the clock) to the dry desert for example in Saudi Arabia (where the temperature easily drops to freezing at night).

It’s not CO2., i.e. “hot-house” is not possible!

Climate change: ‘Hothouse Earth’ risks even if CO2 emissions slashed

By Paul Homewood – NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

It may sound like the title of a low budget sci-fi movie, but for planetary scientists, “Hothouse Earth” is a deadly serious concept.

Researchers believe we could soon cross a threshold leading to boiling hot temperatures and towering seas in the centuries to come.

Even if countries succeed in meeting their CO2 targets, we could still lurch on to this “irreversible pathway”.

Their study shows it could happen if global temperatures rise by 2C.

An international team of climate researchers, writing in the journal, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, says the warming expected in the next few decades could turn some of the Earth’s natural forces – that currently protect us – into our enemies.

Each year the Earth’s forests, oceans and land soak up about 4.5 billion tonnes of carbon that would otherwise end up in our atmosphere adding to temperatures.

But as the world experiences warming, these carbon sinks could become sources of carbon and make the problems of climate change significantly worse.

So whether it is the permafrost in northern latitudes that now holds millions of tonnes of warming gases, or the Amazon rainforest, the fear is that the closer we get to 2 degrees of warming above pre-industrial levels, the greater the chances that these natural allies will spew out more carbon than they currently now take in.

Back in 2015, governments of the world committed themselves to keeping temperature rises well below 2 degrees, and to strive to keep them under 1.5. According to the authors, the current plans to cut carbon may not be enough if their analysis is correct.

“What we are saying is that when we reach 2 degrees of warming, we may be at a point where we hand over the control mechanism to Planet Earth herself,” co-author Prof Johan Rockström, from the Stockholm Resilience Centre, told BBC News.

“We are the ones in control right now, but once we go past 2 degrees, we see that the Earth system tips over from being a friend to a foe. We totally hand over our fate to an Earth system that starts rolling out of equilibrium.”

The utterly corrupt body of climate science has been getting ever more desperate to scare people about climate change and thereby submit to their radical anti capitalist agenda.

People are not falling for it, so we are now being subjected to ever more absurd announcements like this.

The whole premise of this latest is so wholly ridiculous that, if it had been in any other field of science it would have instantly been dismissed as juvenile fantasy rambings with no evidence at all.

But, unfortunately, this is climate science, where any poorly qualified hack with a taste for easy grant money can publish whatever nonsense they want, in the knowledge that the corrupt pal review system will give it the nod, and that the complicit left wing media will give it top billing as indisputable truth.

This is the latest puerile attempt to fool the public.

I am on holiday, but it took me about ten minutes to spot the gaping fallacies in their argument.

  1. The world has been much warmer than now, even in the recent past, yet we have never had this supposed runaway warming.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene_climatic_optimum

In particular, temperatures in the Arctic have been much higher throughout just about all of the holocene. We know from ice cores that temperatures in Greenland in the 19thC were the lowest since the ice age.

Yet these con artists expect us to believe that current temperatures are leading us into oblivion.

Using the same logic, the same plunge into the LIA should also have led to runaway cooling.

The simple fact is that the world has a remarkable stable climate, which reacts to natural climatic changes, but does not run out of control.

2) The Study relies heavily on warming in the Arctic, which supposedly will lead to ice loss, methane release etc, which will in turn cause further warming.

But we know that Arctic temperatures were much higher a few thousand years ago. We also know they were just as high in the 1930s and 40s.

There was no runaway warming then, and won’t be now.

3) The study also invokes the prospect of the Amazon rainforest dying off because of global warming, and the Sahel returning to desert. It is said that these events will add to CO2 in the atmosphere.

Yet we know from historical evidence during the early holocene that a warmer world is a wetter, greener one. That is why the Sahara was verdant 5000 years ago.

Proper climate scientists, such as H Lamb knew a long while ago that cold global climates lead to droughts, not warm ones.

The public has shown itself remarkably resilient in its determination not to have its standard of living damaged by left wing climate policies. Hence the increasingly desperate attempts by the climate mafia to blame every hurricane, flood, heatwave and drought and wildfire on fossil fuels.

And when that does not work, why not try hell and damnation as well?

You would be entitled, reading the above warnings of apocalypse, to think that we are all doomed anyway. Yet, surprise, surprise, the authors offer us a get out of jail card free! Worldwide communism:

The authors say a total re-orientation of human values, equity, behaviour and technologies is required. We must all become stewards of the Earth.

Now, isn’t that a surprise?

The “green” (corrupt) australians also need to get on the bandwagon

Climate Change Australia – Take Climate Action! Stop Perth’s Dam From Filling!

By Andrew Bolt ~

Climate alarmist and former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd says “the [New South Wales} drought is influenced by climate change” and that Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull must “lead global climate action” to stop it.

Meanwhile, Perth’s dam is at record highs. Does Rudd want “climate action” to stop that, too?

Why do CO2 lag behind temperature?

71% of the earth is covered by ocean, water is a 1000 times denser than air and the mass of the oceans are 360 times that of the atmosphere, small temperature changes in the oceans doesn’t only modulate air temperature, but it also affect the CO2 level according to Henry’s Law.

The reason it is called “Law” is because it has been “proven”!

“.. scientific laws describe phenomena that the scientific community has found to be provably true ..”

That means, the graph proves CO2 do not control temperature, that again proves (Man Made) Global Warming, now called “Climate Change” due to lack of … Warming is – again – debunked!
