Is it your Fault?

Climate Change

• Is Climate Change “REAL”?

• I am offended by this question, do you think I am an idiot? Since when did the climate stop changing?

• What do you really mean?

Global Warming

• Again do you think I’m stupid? “The globe was once much colder the time was called an ICE AGE, yes it has warmed since then.

OH you have a theory.

• Dangerous Anthropogenic Global Warming is occurring. (DWAG) Because of the release of CO2 from fossil fuels

• You need to prove that:o Its Dangerouso What the mechanism is (CO2)o Man Made

CO2

• How much CO2 is Man Made• Greenhouse Effect

Where is the tropical hot spot• Feedback CO2 and H2O

Anthropogenic

• 3% of the .038% in the atmosphere, what about the Carbon Cycle, 90% of the free CO2 is in the oceans any way. Australian contribures 1% of that

• WE MAKE NO DIFFERENCE

• Evidence of extreme weather ≠• Evidence DAGW• Like Correlation ≠ Proof

Lack of correlation = disproof
