There is no area in global
warming discussions where AGW advocates have done more to shoot down their own credibility than in the absolutely egregious science and absurd claims that have been made about the potential negative effects of global warming.

I had just been in a

warming here on earth on the basis of these recent measurements of Mars's south polar cap!
Re: 98 Satellite data: Some weeks ago I had a
discussion with my American «Deny - aleban» nephew about global
warming, and I came across some points of interest, which I think somebody should take a closer look into: I wrote this to him: https://www.dropbox.com/s/b9m66ktqf28mghs/Pil1.pdf?dl=0 and the point of interest starts at page 6,
where I write about the 98 - thing.

Among those who are seeking a new direction on energy and emissions, the
discussion appears to remain locked
where it's been for years — over the balance between treating global
warming like a 20th - century pollution problem and a 21st - century technology challenge.
As this blog and other venues continue
discussions of global
warming, its causes and consequences, we would do well also to look at the world around us for clues about
where we are headed.

discussion in the Nobel meeting in Lindau in 2008

What is clear is that uncontrolled emissions will very soon put us in range of temperatures that have been unseen since the Eemian / Stage 5e period (about 120,000 years ago) when temperatures may have been a degree or so
warmer than now but
where sea level was 4 to 6m higher (see this recent
discussion the possible sensitivities of the ice sheets to
warming and the large uncertainties involved).
It is possible to suggest resources and do so in a polite fashion, but when dealing with someone new to the

I have posted this

where RealClimate is often cited as the real truth on global
warming by those wishing to limit greenhouse gases.
In a saner world, recognition that real climate

where warmers and sceptics both could have their view.
In one of my other recent articles, I describe how the PBS NewsHour's 1996 - to - present bias in its global

discussions (plus a few online pages directly relating to some of those segments).
Now, it doesn't go in the direction it sounds like you prefer, the long series of
discussions on the science end up endorsing much of the core of the modern scientific consensus around the physics of greenhouse and global
warming (though pointing out places
where public media frequently argues well beyond the science).
Today I link to «The Practice of Personal Attacking Global
Warming Skeptics — Rather than Responding to Their Scientific Criticisms», a guest post at Tony Heller's blog by Dr William Gray,
where Dr Gray offered this bit in a longer story: «Why are the
warmers so afraid to have open and honest
discussion about the basic nitty - gritty assumptions of their AGW hypothesis?
Not only did you attack my comment on the basis of my fairly offhand reference to hydrocarbon formation, (my intial comment primarily related to the dead zone off the Oregon coast and its possible causes and effects) you used my comment to claim that this website, which is one of the few places
where unbiased scientific
discussion of global
warming appears outside of strictly academic circles, has «way too much junk science».
