Scientist: Carbon Dioxide Doesn't Cause Global Warming

Mauna Loa shows CO2 at 395 ppm so right there he's either lying or stupid. Also, I'm relatively sure that the ecosystem, nor the troposphere works the same way as a submarine - the idea that he would compare the two is idiotic. As usual, fools like this want to push the envelope, not knowing where the outside of the envelope actually is. Taunt the tiger and he may eat you. By the by, this guy is also a retired oil executive from Houston so...you do the calculus.

That simply seems like too much. The Earth doesn't enter a barren state over night, it takes millions of years. A global increase in temperature would support additional life, but have you give thoughts to disease? Additionally separate parts of the world would be affected differently. Trying to control our Earth will inevitably doom us, and yes it sucks to say but we're overpopulated. The solution is temperance and restraint, not radical alterations.

Still I would look at your evidence, I just don't know that I'd buy your book.

I like what Dr. Steward has to say. However, people will automatically write him off (like what has already been done in other comments below). But what if he is correct? People believe things they are told, and have been told about global warming and CO2 for years and years now. So of course they would ignore things that are contrary to what they already hold to be true and self-evident. This is dangerous though, and needs to stop. The global warming issue has become too political to know the truth about what actually happens. We, as humans, need to set political parties and ideology aside, and actually have an unbiased study of what actually does cause warming, and what CO2 actually does to our environment. Until then, we will get no where, and if there really is a problem, we wont see it, wont fix it, and in turn, hinder the future of the world. Way to go.

Yes, Dr. Steward is right on. There is NO empirical data that supports the AGW hypothysis which is why none of the Warmists will debate it. Oceanic alkalinity, the sea is not acid, remains stable and many studies have shown that increased oceanic CO2 will increase marine life as it does terrestrial. The sea level rose 6"in the 20th Century and is on track to do the same or less in the 21st. Social uproar will be assured if we have cooling and/or a drop in CO2 as famine such as struck during the Little Ice Age will again stalk the land. I don't know what CO2 has to do with disease, but there is a 10x increase in deaths in cold months vs warm ones. Enjoy the Holocene Modern Warm Period. The cold bad times will come soon enough.

I always enjoy a good laugh. Yes, with the highest CO2 in recorded history, we need more. He doesn't addess what he acknowledges would be a crash in sea food stocks, ocean acidification, loss of farmland, huge social uproars, huge increases in disease, etc. Hey, plants would love it, and that's all need to know, right. Oh, and pass me my share of the corporate profits, now.

Hello,

I am interested to find where could I order natural HGH releaser?

Thanks to all,

Awsome post ! I will store it in my favorites. thank you

It cannot be argued that carbon emissions do not cause warming of the atmosphere. The facts are that the combustion of carbon in the presence of oxygen creates 94,300 calories per mole (= 44.01 of CO2 produced). All other emissions other than heat, have no effect.

Once formed, carbon dioxide has no effect.

If carbon dioxide once formed, warms the atmosphere, then filling a roof-space with CO2 would warm a building. True believers should try it. Skeptics should not waste their time and/or their money.
