If alive today, Albert Einstein would almost certainly have
been labeled a global warming "denier"...
His views and theories
would be considered controversial - a word that shouldn't exist in
science - and I'm sure the horde of climate zealots would work
tirelessly to destroy his career.
Back in 1919,
Einstein showed that if a gas was in thermodynamic equilibrium
the rate of adsorption by an infrared gas was equal to the
emission.
Meaning, if you increase the amount of infrared active gases in
the atmosphere you will increase the rate of absorption but,
crucially, at the exact same time you will increase the rate of
emission.
So, if the gas is in thermodynamic equilibrium you won't get a
greenhouse effect - it won't store the energy.
The air is in
thermodynamic equilibrium.
Today's climate
models have decided to ignore Einstein
In today's world of
settled science! and groupthink, Einstein, I'm
sure, would have recalled the famous attack on himself:
"A
Hundred Scientists Against Einstein," published in
Germany in 1931.
His pithy response
then was,
"If I were
wrong, one would have been enough."
His view of
groupthink was summarized in another comment:
"In order to be
a member of a flock of sheep, one must, above all, be a sheep
oneself...!"
And to the oft
baa'd the science is settled! claim - well, Einstein would
surely have repeated his quote:
"We still do
not know one thousandth of one percent of what nature has
revealed to us."
The arrogance of
climate alarmist is astonishing.
Nothing is ever
settled.
"No amount of
experimentation can ever prove me right. A single experiment can
prove me wrong."
Chugging in the
background, behind the alarmist arrogance, planet Earth is always
running experiments on our behalf - and, unfortunately for the
warm-mongers, the results routinely prove the
CO2/global
warming theory wrong.
Temperatures have
risen at a much slower rate, two or three times slower, than models
predicted. And on top of that, no one has the first clue how much of
that relatively small warming is due to increased carbon dioxide.
After all, as
professor Will Happer
writes:
"Quite similar
warming was observed more than a century ago when CO2
could not have played a role. The alarmist narrative has been
proven wrong by experimental observation.
With his
reverence for observational fact, Einstein would have been
repulsed by the Orwellian demonization of CO2 as
'carbon pollution'."
Levels of
atmospheric carbon dioxide have varied tremendously throughout the
ages, from as high as 7,000 ppm to as low as 150 ppm - and not so
widely-known - is that it's only at those lower levels where life
struggles.
Data from ice cores
and marine sediments clearly reveal that,
there is no
correlation
whatsoever
between atmospheric CO2 concentrations and the
temperature at the earth's surface:
Satellites show
that the modest increase of CO2 in the past few decades
has produced a measurable greening of the Earth, especially in arid
regions.
As Dr. Patrick
Moore says:
"First of all,
there is no hard evidence that CO2 has anything to do
with the changing temperature of the Earth's climate. Secondly,
CO2 is the most important food for all life on earth.
"All the carbon
in all carbon based life came from carbon dioxide, in the air
and the water. Carbon dioxide has been declining steadily for
the last 150 million years to its lowest level in the history of
life on earth, at the height of the last glaciation - 180 ppm.
The reason for
this is that life itself has sucked the carbon out of the system
and put it into the sediments as fossil fuels, but much more
importantly as carbonaceous rocks, a fancy term for limestone.
That's where
all the carbon went and we, thankfully, are putting some of the
CO2 back into the air that was sucked out by life
over the millennia and are restoring a balance to the global
carbon cycle.
"At 150 ppm
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere plants die.
They don't
just need carbon dioxide to survive, they need a certain
level of it, just like we need a certain level of oxygen,
to survive.
"Virtually all
commercial greenhouse growers enrich the atmosphere in their
greenhouse with between two to three times the level [of CO2]
in the global atmosphere today in order to get 20 to 60 percent
increase in growth.
And indeed,
this is happening globally as we have increased CO2
from 280 ppm to 410 ppm - a greening of the earth is occurring,
NASA has it on their website, the Australian scientists and the
European scientist all confirm that there has been a massive
greening of the earth."
Prof. Happer
appears to backup Moore's statement,
writing:
"Over most of
geological history, concentrations of atmospheric CO2
have been much higher than those today.
Both plant and
animal life were more abundant when the atmosphere was enriched
with three or four times more CO2 than today's
levels.
Climate
alarmists are having a difficult time justifying their claims
with science.
The Earth
stubbornly refuses to warm as quickly as establishment models
predict. Extreme weather is not becoming more frequent. Sea
levels are rising at about the same rate as they did in the
1800s.
But rather than
address honest scientific concerns, alarmists attack skeptics as
"deniers," a word deliberately chosen to vilify the person,
along with CO2."
Einstein was
subject to similar attacks, by envious, prejudiced contemporaries.
His advice on how to deal with this was as follows:
"Weak people
revenge. Strong people forgive. Intelligent people ignore."
So let's ignore
the bogus, political agendas at play, and forgive all
those poor unfortunately souls (alarmists) that have been swept-up
in it all - the end of the world is a compelling narrative, and
sheep are easily herded.
A far more likely future for planet Earth is the return to a
natural, cyclical spell of global cooling - one arriving in
line with,
The Sun is at the
heart of all Earthly catastrophes, not Man and his inconsequential
activities.
Man plays about as
much part in the grand climate cycles as ants on mound of dirt:
we
can shift that dirt, ravage the local environment even, completely
alter our surroundings, but we have no say in the multimillennial
will of the cosmos.
Prepare for
the COLD -
learn the facts, relocate if need be,
and grow
your own...
