gas.
A few

The 2009 State of the Climate report gives these top indicators: humans emitted 30 billion tons of of CO2 into the atmosphere each year from the burning of fossil fuels (oil, coal, and natural
gas), less oxygen in the air from the burning of fossil fuels, rising fossil fuel carbon in corals, nights
warming faster than
days, satellites show less of the earth's heat escaping into space, cooling of the stratosphere or upper atmosphere,

Some of the meteorological threats, like extreme downpours and heat waves, are sure to worsen in a human - heated climate, with
warming from elevated levels of heat - trapping carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
gases seen by many climate scientists as already contributing to the severity of rains like those over Texas in recent
days and Louisiana last year.
Actually, Arrhenius could have predicted that the
warming would occur a century ago if he knew how CO2 would grow, so it is coming to pass as it could have been foreseen in his
day with even simple physics and
gas data.
JimD, «Actually, Arrhenius could have predicted that the

And rather pertain point this suggested basic principle is that lunar surface during the
day is 120 C and if only greenhouse
gas warm surface [which the Moon lacks]- that points to pretty serious flaw in the general idea.
They found that, as humans burn ever more fossil fuels to release ever higher levels of greenhouse
gases into the atmosphere, to stoke yet further global
warming and trigger catastrophic climate change, all 571 cities will experience ever greater heatwaves: that is, three consecutive
days and nights at which temperatures are about as high as they have ever been for that city.
Those
gases trap heat and aggravate global

All that having been said, let's take another look at the Anthropogenic Global
Warming (AGW) argument, first noting the following: The proponents of AGW argue that, right from the beginning of the Industrial Revolution when there were no automobiles, very few steam engines, and only 1.2 billion people (versus today's 7 billion), the introduction of initially tiny quantities of a weak greenhouse
gas produced, without time - delay, an in - phase and measurable rise in global temperatures that continues to this
day.
