Global Warming

He who advances a theory, is the one who has to prove it.
Have they proved the theory of HUMAN caused global warming?
This, I seriously doubt.

An interesting compendium of links. Draft outline. To be expanded.

Michael Crichton: Crichton is a well read author of popular scientific novels (Andromeda Strain, Jurassic Park, Terminal Man, etc.) and TV shows (ER) with a medical bent. He has several advanced degrees, is a guest lecturer on Physical Anthropology, etc. Not a simple author! I urge you to read and THINK about his lectures.; Lecture: Our Environmental Future http://www.michaelcrichton.com/speech-ourenvironmentalfuture.html; More interesting lectures, notes and thoughts at www.michaelcrichton.com

The Greenland Icecap is Melting?: With all this warming since 1940's, The Lost Squadron, a set of aircraft which crash landed on the Greenland Ice cap is now more than 250 feet under the ice. http://www.digitalrailroad.net/lousapienza/Production/PhotoGroupView.aspx ?pbid=4&msa=1&pgid=8517612; P38assn.org/glacier-girl.htm; TheLostSquadron.com; Greenland has cooled 2.25 C since they landed! http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread310839/pg1; There were substantial birch forests and native populations in Eric the Red's time, before The Little Ice Age.; Today, Greenland supports only about 57,000 people.; Do note the depth issue is a hot topic of contention between scientists and creationists; some creationists insisting it "proves" that either the aircraft are over 2,700 years old, or that ice core data is not valid. Real scientists have other explanations.
The Maya, Anasazi and Amerinds, Victims of Global Warming?: Before the little ice age, the Great Plains were the Great Meadowlands with tree cover, brush, and plentiful game for the American Indians to catch and eat.; The decline and fall of the Anasazi and Maya came at the end of the Medieval Climeate Optimum, aka Medieval Warm Period.; http://www.cpluhna.nau.edu/People/anasazi_collapse.htm; Medieval Warm Period http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_Warm_Period; The Little Ice Age http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Ice_Age; The cold weather of The Little Ice Age was around till 1850
Where does CO2 go during the Ice Ages?: The solubility of CO2 in water decreases as it warms.; If CO2 causes warming, and CO2 is released by the seas as they warm...; So... How does CO2 get back into the sea when the sea is hot?; Something else overpowers the "CO2 effect" to cool the seas enough to reabsorb the CO2.; Recent solar models suggest it is the variability of the sun itself.; In fact, much research shows that CO2 lags warming and cooling by hundreds of years.; A lagging indicator can not be a causative factor. At least not in this universe.; Qualified educated deduction: CO2 is not THE cause global warming.
Which carbon cycle holds the most carbon?: The carbonate cycle in which CO2 falls as Calcium Carbonate to the ocean floor, is subducted, and then released by vulcanism. Over 75 percent of the carbon in the atmosphtere has come from this cycle, which is believed to have strong perturbations in the long run.; There was substantially more CO2 available during the early evolution of plants. Rubisco, a key conversion enzyme plants use to convert CO2 to sugars is not very efficient.; Grasses evolved due to lower CO2 levels predominating starting about 1.3 million years ago. Till then, there was enough CO2 for the less efficient shrubs and trees to out do the grasses.; Some greenhouses run CO2 generators to boost plant growth. Two of many examples:

IPCC Report on Climate Change: The IPCC does not monitor climate change, nor carry out research. It's only function is to produce reports relevant to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. In other words, to support the convention with appropriate paperwork. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intergovernmental_Panel_on_Climate_Change; Note how they repeatedly say that they are not concerned about any non-human sources.; Note how they do not know, and are not concerned about what happens to CO2 during the glacial phase of the cycle.; IPCC Reporthttp://ipcc-wg1.ucar.edu/wg1/wg1-report.html; http://www.ipcc-wg2.org/

We Need Alternative Energy!: Civilization runs on energy.; Our comfort, heating and cooling require energy.; Our industrial society requires energy.; We NEED to develop alternative energy sources.; Someday, someone will find a better source of energy!; We just have to keep looking. That is our highest responsibility to ourselves, to our nation, to civilization itself!!!
