Geological History Does not Support CO2′s Importance
Posted by coby on March 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: If you look back over the last 600 million years you see that there really is not much correlation between temperatures and CO2 levels. Clearly CO2 is…
What About Mid-Century Cooling?
Posted by coby on March 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: There was global cooling in the 40′s, 50′s and 60′s even while human Greenhouse gas emissions were rising. Clearly, temperature is not being driven by CO2. Answer:
Satellites Show Cooling
Posted by coby on March 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: Satellite readings, which are much more accurate, show that the earth is in fact cooling. Some very old news here, that’s all. I wonder how long before…
This is Just a Natural Cycle
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: The current warming is just part of a natural cycle. Answer:
The Medieval Warm Period was just as warm as today
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: It was just as warm in the Medieval Warm Period (MWP) as today, in fact Greenland was green and they were growing grapes in England. Answer:
It was Warmer During the Holocene Climatic Optimum
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: It was even warmer than today during the Holocene Climatic Optimum without any human influence. Answer:
CO2 Lags Not Leads
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: The CO2 concentration lags behind temperature by centuries in the glacial-interglacial cycles, so clearly CO2 does not cause temperatures to rise, temperatures cause CO2 to rise. Answer:
Warming is due to the Urban Heat Island Effect
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: The apparent rise of global average temperatures is actually an illusion due to the urbanization of land around weather stations, the Urban Heat Island effect. Answer:
The Temperature Record Reliability Attack
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: The surface temperature record is so full of assumptions, corrections, differing equipment and station settings, changing technology, varying altitudes and more. It is not possible to claim…
It’s cold today in Wagga Wagga
Posted by coby on February 25, 2006 This is just one of dozens of responses to common climate change denial arguments, which can all be found at How to Talk to a Climate Sceptic. Objection: It was way colder than normal today in Wagga Wagga, this is proof that there is no Global Warming. Answer:
