while in the context of the ongoing climate debate we continue — albeit with some embarrassment — to employ the scientifically meaningless phrase «climate change», we recognise that, in principle, a
planetary warming to fend off otherwise imminent glacial inception, together with CO2 greening (the latter offsetting loss of vegetation footprint, the only real environmental concern) is having broad positive impacts
on society, including the global economy, natural resources, and human health.
And his predictions are even worse:» The continuing

warming will continue
on decadal time scales.»
From ridiculous and patently false claims that global
warming has slowed, that the world can't be
warming because winter still exists, that (seriously) plants like carbon dioxide so we're just feeding them; these people's only purpose is to slow any real progress
on fixing the
planetary mess we're in.
In their attempt to create the illusion of ferocious winter weather
on a rapidly
warming planet, the geoengineers are actually further fueling the overall
planetary heating.
The attempt to involve «fluorocarbons» and other superfluous «concepts» is based still in the misinterpretations of Energy prevalent within «greenhouse science» as still the Energy incident to the surface, persistently within the Visible and Lower UV spectrum, has NOT been observed to alter in any manner sufficiently significant to cause either «
warming» or «cooling» in interaction with the materials actually present both within the atmosphere, or
on the
planetary surface.
The «unnatural»
warming so far seen is however trended strongly to the alterations to the
planetary surface by Humanity over the past 400 years and the rebalance towards greater kinetic induction (in its cumulative effect) is now producing observable alterations not only to the Land Surface median Temperature, but to the Ocean (vie conduction / convection) and a still unconfirmed claim of a small overall rise in Median Atmospheric Temperature, which if «true» would place the Planetary Biosphere on the «Human Population Plot» with regard to «warmin

planetary carbon taxes and more government control.
Although one of the ES components mentioned above, the global economy, is about to inadvertently transform that face through massive emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and the so - induced
