YouTubesday: The Great Global Warming Swindle
Posted by: biggandy, in Humanity, Political, YouTubesdayWonderful program from the BBC letting scientists actually talk about FACTS rather than bleating liberal political talking points. If this video doesn’t bring some red flags to your thought process about so-called “Global Warming” then you merely BELIEVE the rhetoric spoon-fed to you rather than actually THINKING these things through.
None of this garbage from the Left is real, from their phony and contrived measurements of data to their warping and twisting of reality to fit their preconceived notions. There are better and more important things to worry about than what Al Gore and David Suzuki want you to fret over.

The program you’re referring to has been debunked multiple times. RealClimate is a good place to start.
The overwhelming evidence from multiple lines of study is that global warming is real and is mostly anthropogenic. It’s not a question of “right” vs. “left” but of facts, and the fact is the planet is being damaged.
The nonsense from the global warming deniers is in the same line as the nonsense the tobacco companies put out about tobacco not being harmful.
Perhaps a better example would be acid rain. Remember how people tried to deny that humans were the cause of acid rain, until it got so bad that the Reagan administration had to do something about it?
Sure, a few scientists claim that there’s no global warming. Halton Arp is still claiming that cosmic red shifts aren’t due to acceleration of the universe. Assuming Arp is alive — haven’t checked in a while. There’s people still claiming that General Relativity isn’t even close to being right or that Quantum Mechanics is totally and 100% wrong. What they say is still nonsense, but they are out there. It’s science. You get some people that get stuck on a wrong track — even Einstein had that problem with QM.

“Sure, a few scientists claim that there’s no global warming. Halton Arp is still claiming that cosmic red shifts aren’t due to acceleration of the universe. Assuming Arp is alive — haven’t checked in a while.” Just like most people, stating a fact and then not doing a reality check to see if what they say is still valid. No wonder so many folk are duped by the fantasy science fiction of politicians promoting global warming, can’t even check facts in front of a computer.
Thanks for making my point for me.

Why would I care if Arp is alive? He was incapable of accepting scientific data and astronomy moved on. I looked it up, and he still can’t admit that astronomy has passed him by. He’s gone from being a respected scientist to a crank who deserves pity for being unable to accept change.
He’s no longer worth the time, and neither are the global warming deniers. A decade ago, they might have had a point. At some point though, you have to accept reality. They can’t, like Arp can’t.
I’ve not made any point for you.
Have you actually read anything on RealClimate, or do you wish to read only what you agree with? I’ve worked through articles by Abdusamatov, looking to see if what he did was correct. It wasn’t — at best, his theory could only account for 70% of the global warming, and with recent research on the Maunder Minimum showing it was changes in ocean patterns and limited to portions of Europe and North America, that number has been knocked down to less than 20%.

Because you used him as an example and did not care enough about your logic, argument, or credibility to check if he was alive or dead, and even admitted it.
You made my point brilliantly.

You’re talking nonsense. His state of being doesn’t make it any different that for the last part of his career, he spouted nonsense. Same with Einstein, at least involving QM. It happens.
