Reversing the onus of proof. A few times, nature released stored carbon rapidly & boosted temperatures disastrously. The deliberate release of stored carbon is new. We know it causes climate harms, with a risk of extreme harms. What study with empirical data proves it is safe?
Veritatem 2021: TRUTH IS NOT A POPULARITY CONTEST@Veritatem2021

@CaptainAdvance1 You have yet to link me to a scientific paper showing empirical evidence that fossil fuel emissions cause climate change or empirical evidence of "radiative forcing" by CO2.

@ausstockchick Chinese banks' in-house economists tend to follow the CCP line.

She said do your research. I have the degree. Let's fact-check.  Biggers cited a political scientist as a climate expert. Showed ice core data and called it reassuring… leaving out that today's CO2 rises 100x faster than anything in that record. That's her own chart working against her. A chart is not a conclusion. A TV background is not a credential. I have both the degree and the receipts. #climatechange #bigoil

@CaptainAdvance1 @icarus62 @BjornLomborg The 8.5 scenarios shows it pays to be skeptical of wild claims designed to cause panic and fear. How many school children were scared by the wild unfounded cooked up stories from the UN? I have a right to be skeptical and it should be respected.

@robbenson1979 @icarus62 @BjornLomborg The UN IPCC provided a range of scenarios. The goal is to stay below 2C. The 8.5 scenario should never have been described as business as usual. It assumed no price 'learning.' Had China not mass produced solar, prices would be 2-3x as high. It wasn't so unlikely back in 2010.

@CaptainAdvance1 @icarus62 @BjornLomborg UN IPPC has zero credibility now. The best thing that can happen is for Trump to stop the UN funding. After this 8.5 scenerio bold face invention from the UN, don't dare wonder why people call 3c warming a scam. I am with Ian Plimer. Dr. Peter Ridd is owed an apology too.

@CaptainAdvance1 @icarus62 @BjornLomborg The 8.5 scenarios was a load of codswallop which u defended. I call it out as BS from day one. The whole thing is made up fantasy. What happened to the global ice age of the 1970s and the predicted mass stavation pushed in 1960s?

@CaptainAdvance1 It is Ok to admit u fell for warming scam. A lot of people went along with it. Remember when Trump warned the EU parilment against relying on Russia for energy and they laughed? He was right again. Trump good at calling out a scam. China russia india too smart to fall for it:)

@robbenson1979 Yes, a President who ignores the scientific advice & insists that agencies act on his ideological beliefs is terrible for the US & other nations. RCP8.5 was the extreme but the others still see us exceeding 2C. We're headed for 3C by 2100.

@CaptainAdvance1 Every other prediction to date has been wrong. Keep pushing back the dates for the end of the world. How about protesting against data centers? Shouldn't you be protesting against mass migration on the basis it increases emissions? Did you even watch the YT video i sent you?

@BjornLomborg Sadly not true: 1: We're very nearly following RCP8.5 right now. 2: We can't assume the natural world will continue to offset our emissions. 3: There is good evidence of high climate sensitivity. 4: Impacts of warming may come sooner than expected. x.com/icarus62/statu…

@ryanweather @RogerPielkeJr Here's an inconvenient fact: The real world climate forcing growth rate is close to RCP8.5. The GHG forcing since 1750 is 3.5W/m². 75 more years at 0.05W/m²/year would be 7.25W/m² by 2100, not much short of 8.5. And it's accelerating. The gap is getting larger, not smaller.

You can’t tell me the war has caused another rate rise. This is third interest rate hike in Australia whilst other advanced economies hold rates. It’s embarrassing. It’s shocking. It’s disastrous. Yet people are still defending the Labor government. #auspol

@robbenson1979 @ChrisWa16949549 @Clarsonimus It is a choice. Allowing private major commercial consumers to increase electricity demand exponentially without providing infrastructure to shield consumers from price increases or water shortages is not a given. It is a policy choice to socialise the costs of private profits.

The Maunder Minimum (1645-1715) was a prolonged minimum in sunspot activity which coincided with the Little Ice Age in the Northern Hemisphere. What role could human-caused CO₂ have played here?

@ChrisWa16949549 @CaptainAdvance1 @Clarsonimus Well in 1000 years, move on to uranium. Then by the year 4026, solar and wind can have their day. The left not worried about dumping huge loads of government debt on future generations but now try to pivot to concerns about future energy supply.
