He would argue that Leclerc's notion of «physical existence» applies not only to our more typical notion of a molecule of water, or of sugar, or of hemoglobin (all of similar type), but also to examples of crystals, which are markedly different, and to systems of chemical reaction which persist far from equilibrium.
Some kinds of change may be plausible if they involve a strengthening of a commitment to be a certain type of community which is already dominant in a school, but other kinds of change may be much less plausible precisely because they would involve a change in the type of community a school already is or a change in the current equilibrium among contrasting types of community.
I really regret not cloth diapering our last child but my husband didn't want to mess with cloth diapers — he was tired of them — and I was not about to upset the marriage equilibrium over the type of diapers we used.
Generally, critics argue that this type of theory is overly static, as well as prone to equilibrium, whereas actual economic behavior is dynamic.

If it takes 100 plus years to double the concentration of CO2, and if the equilibrium response is a 2C increase (Pierrehumbert, «Principles of Planetary Climate», p 623), and if the increased CO2 produces increased vegetation and crop growth, then the present rate of development of non-fossil fuel power and fuel generation is more appropriate than an Apollo type project or attempt to get rid of all fossil fuel use by 2050 starting now as fast as can be done.
For these types of radiative climate forcings the atmospheric temperature profile will be shifted basically unchanged to its new equilibrium position.
So, if you have two identical glass greenhouses with thermally isolated mercury thermometers at equilibrium in the sunlight [One with Air at Press =P, and the 2nd w / CO2 at Press =P], and you close the blinds — you will see the thermometer in the CO2 greenhouse retain its temperature longer — not because of any «global warming» type effect, but simply because Air conducts heat to the walls of the greenhouse better than Air does.

Nonetheless, there is a tendency for similar equilibrium climate sensitivity ECS, especially using a Charney ECS defined as equilibrium global time average surface temperature change per unit tropopause - level forcing with stratospheric adjustment, for different types of forcings (CO2, CH4, solar) if the forcings are not too idiosyncratic.
Absent interactions with photons, non-photons will come to a thermodynamic equilibrium wherein there is some equilibrium energy distribution characteristic of that type of material at some particular temperature, and the non-photons will thus have that temperature.
At the point where there is so much H2O vapor in the atmosphere that there is very little solar heating of the surface (very very far from happenning), there will also tend to be almost no net LW cooling at the surface, so a tropospheric - type lapse rate could still tend to extend down to the surface (as long as the net LW cooling is smaller than the SW heating, there will be some non-radiative flux from the surface for equilibrium conditions).
But in full thermodynamic equilibrium, with equilibrium among all photons and non-photons, the rate of emission into a direction and absorption from that direction at some location, of each type of photon, will be equal.
I never asserted that sensitivity in terms of equilibrium time - average surface temperature change per unit change in TOA or even tropopause - level forcing (with or without stratospheric adjustment) would be the same for each type of forcing for each climatic state and the external forcings that maintain it (or for that matter, for each of those different of forcings (TOA vs tropopause, etc.) with everything held constant.
Scattering may also drive the distribution over polarizations toward an equilibrium (which would be, at any given frequency and direction, constant over polarizations so long as the real component of the index of refraction is independent of polarization) Interactions wherein photons are scattered by matter with some exchange of energy will eventually redistribute photons toward a Planck - function distribution — a blackbody spectrum — characteristic of some temperature, and because the exchange involves some other type of matter, the photon gas temperature (brightness temperature) will approach the temperature of the material it is interacting with -LRB-?
** At LTE (local thermodynamic equilibrium) within a small volume of material (small enough to be isothermal) that is still large enough to contain a large enough population of molecules / atoms / electrons / etc, each population of a type of particle has the same temperature, and the distribution of energy among all particles and all forms it can take (translational, vibrational, rotational, potential, electronic, latent, etc) is an equilibrium distribution).

Those limits are obtained only, when the additional assumption of uniform prior in Y is made.

This results in the use of transport above its equilibrium value and most of the time also results in higher emissions, although this depends on the type of subsidy.
This type of geologic time frame, if representative of the actual time required to achieve equilibrium, is one reason why I think that CO2 sensitivity calculations based on less than a century of data all have to be * not even wrong *
«The Earth's climate system is highly nonlinear: inputs and outputs are not proportional, change is often episodic and abrupt, rather than slow and gradual, and multiple equilibria are the norm... there is a relatively poor understanding of the different types of nonlinearities, how they manifest under various conditions, and whether they reflect a climate system driven by astronomical forcings, by internal feedbacks, or by a combination of both... [We] suggest a robust alternative to prediction that is based on using integrated assessments within the framework of vulnerability studies... It is imperative that the Earth's climate system research community embraces this nonlinear paradigm if we are to move forward in the assessment of the human influence on climate.»
In thermodynamic equilibrium the atmosphere is isothermal and the vertical profiles of each type of molecule have their own exponential dependencies with altitude.
A proposition of this type is a premise to the IPCC's argument for the possibility of a catastrophically high equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) and this argument must be regarded as unproved in view of the falsity of this premise.
