Jeffrey Bennett fails to mention that while Venus has approx 95% atmospheric CO2 and is extremely hot, Mars also has around 95% CO2 and is extremely cold. The difference is air pressure. Venus has a very high air pressure, Mars has very low air pressure. Alarmists continually ignore this.

You are 100% correct. It is the extreme pressure difference that is the main culprit that the climate doomists conveniently ignore. Temperature measured on Venus at the same pressure at increased altitude is only mildly warmer than it is here , allowing for the increased proximity to the sun. If high co2 was the main driver as propagandered ,then Mars would be warmer than Earth ,but isn't because of its low atmospheric pressure. Even on planet Earth...as you descend ,temperature increases as air pressure increases,and temperature decreases as you increase in altitude as air pressure decreases. It's that simple. This climate propagandist is quoting rubbish from many junk sites. World socialism by the the environmental back door.

First, most politicians are ignoring or denying climate change so your original post makes no sense. Second, you clearly know nothing about physics. Why don't you pick up a book on the infrared spectrum of CO2, if you want to actually know anything about why CO2 can indeed absorb infrared radiation and heat up the atmosphere and the ground. The vibrational and rotational spectrum of CO2 with its three atoms, indeed can do what all the scientists say it can do. And completely contrary to your ignorant claim about gases, there are MANY gases that can trap the heat, such as H2O vapor, CH4 and N2O. These all contribute to the greenhouse effect. The one thing you are right about is that the climate can change greatly. And that is why we humans need to be very alarmed about the risk of human caused climate change. Lastly, the very fact that you use the term "climate alarmist" shows your bias, and your lies.

If we go over our Earth budget, ecosystems will keep collapsing (they are already in the early stages of degradation/collapse now). If we get under 3.5 acres/person/year and stop burning fossil fuels, we can save the planet for lots and lots of future generations of humans. Those are just the laws of nature. Take care.

OF COURSE IT IS for those data points but that doesn't prove causation. He even focused specifically on the word correlation. I'm not denyiny that there is a 1 degree global temperature change, but there are other factors and causes. And then Jeff would just rebut with "but the temperature is rising, it's real." And then all you can say is, "did you even hear my argument?" He's really just saying a truism that there being a connection is true because there is a connection.

Greenhouse experiments create artificial super-optimized conditions in which ALL growth parameters: light, temperature, humidity, nutrients, minerals, pH, plant varieties, cycling are all hyper-optimized in which case atmospheric CO2 concentration becomes the limiting factor. Once CO2 concentration "deficit" is remediated then optimized growth rate is unleashed. To extrapolate that to all plants growing under all conditions in the ecosystem and use that as an excuse/rationalization for high CO2 concentrations is disingenuous -> duplicitous. There is also evidence that high CO2 concentration in "natural" growing conditions (may) lead to "junk-food-ification" of plants which will stuff the easy calories to the detriment of their normal absorption of nutrients and minerals. Of course such a consideration would be secondary to the values of those who eagerly boast "we boosted production quantity". Ambient atmospheric CO2 concentration has remained in the 250-350ppm range for the last million years through multiple glaciations during which plant development/evolution/adaptation has occurred (and possibly the hand-tweaked re-creation of plant species by the Hand of God-Himself - for those so inclined why is it that God Himself has not cranked up ambient CO2 to 1333ppm ?)

Peer review started as a good idea. Then it became the buddy system so that now it lacks basis. Since I worked in healthcare I saw practices changed based on "evidence-based practice". That's great yet I worked long enough to see the practice completely disproven. A friend of mine says "Today's evidence-based practice is tomorrow's malpractice. "

Would draw your (and your viewers) attention to the fact that KZread has now attached the wiki on Climate Change to every video about climate change. There is so much to say about this 'intervention' that I am posting here and elsewhere in the hope that commentators like yourself may pick up the issue and produce some content on the point. Firstly, let's start with the fact that Wikipedia is not a recognised academic authority and students at the most basic level of learning are warned against using Wikipedia as an academic source. Anyone who has had any involvement with Wikipedia will tell you that whilst the concept is audible and the service provided quite wonderful on many levels, as with all human activities it suffers from personal bias, personal politics and can be riven in certain issues with agenda politics. Then let us look about what the position of the Climate Change Wikipedia is (as of Feb 2021) on scientific consensus: "The consensus has grown to 100% among research scientists on anthropogenic global warming as of 2019.[300] No scientific body of national or international standing disagrees with this view.[301]" Apparently, there is absolutely no research scientist in the world who disagrees with the proposition that global warming is human-made. If you follow the links to the original research you will find that over 11,000 peer-reviewed publications have been analysed to provide this statement of 100% support for one idea of science. There can be probably no doubt whatsoever that this mythology is accurate. However, if we are going to apply some critical thinking, a facility no longer fashionable in our universities, then we need to look beyond a Wikipedia headline and think about the process which leads to a conclusion where 100% of research arrives at the same conclusion! OK, so we may say that a 100% agreement about an environmental condition is entirely possible, for example, 100% of scientists can agree that water does not flow uphill and that when released from grasp a weight will fall. 100% agreement is always achievable at simple levels but the simplicity of thought behind believing that such an agreement can be found when investigating the most complex dynamic system on planet Earth requires either idiocy or gullibility. Therefore the real question is how exactly is it possible to produce a 100% consensus about such a complex issue? The answer is actually quite simple and yet is unlikely to attract 100% acknowledgement, especially from University-based academics (even though most of them know it is true), and it is that any critical analysis of Universities in 2021 reveals that the standards of education have been lowered disastrously, the marking of everything from Bachelors to PhD is utterly compromised by the needs of the University's business model (in the UK the awarding of first-class marks has gone as high as 60% in one institution [oxymoronic]), tutors, readers and department heads live in fear of retaining their employment and thus research, its time allocation and funding, is ever more dictated by politics and the profit and loss account. Within this environment, the propensity for Professors and PhD supervisors to prefer and advantage candidates they like socially, personally and politically has increased over the last 20 years (it was a structure always present in the system, the need to gain funding has conditioned not just the focus of a PhD but heavily influenced selection of research proposals as needing to be in line with the aims of funding award bodies. All of this has created one of the worst possible academic nightmares; where research works towards pre-conceived conclusions in order to prove their veracity. The situation as just described is a disaster for the success of the human future but bear in mind that it is a critique of universities not of the climate change discourse. When we then focus in on the specific area of climate change the problems highlighted concerning our universities then acquire an intensification of logarithmic dimensions. In this debate, added to the stress imposed by the universities abject surrender to rule by the balance sheet, there is heaped onto the press the global political debate, the global media focus, a popular resistance movement manned by highly uneducated masses and a youth awareness based on indoctrination rather than critical thinking. This is the influx of intellectual pollution flowing into the universities. I would like to make this very, very clear; I am not advocating for or against anthropogenic caused global warming. I am not in any way saying or commenting on the global warming debate as a matter of science. I am not qualified to do so. What I am saying and where my critique lies is that when we find a 100% consensus in science then we have to conclude that science and the process of science represented by such a claim is actually not science at all. What a 100% consensus represents is a failure, a critical failure, in the method of producing scientific research. When we then see that a Wikipedia entry is appended to every KZread video on climate change, a partial, biased, unreliable and unqualified analysis, then what we are looking at should be deeply worrying to anyone who thinks that a first-class degree, of any level, should require so much more than it actually does now. At least Wikipedia is what it is but surely we can rely on peer-reviewed journals? Well, when they are staffed by the same people who run the university departments the problem remains the same. In recent years, very recent, I have heard of an article being rejected because the journal editor '... would not permit criticism of the work of valued colleagues and friends to be presented in his journal...'. This was concerning a world-renowned academic journal of the first order but please, consider what I say here as hearsay and unverified opinion because if I had to disclose detailed information then the corrupt system would visit consequences on the academic concerned for sharing such a rebuttal. The article concerned was published, in a respectable journal, so I say with as much authority as a Wikipedia page, and found little contention. However, if the university process is so corrupt as to print off first-class degrees to students who should really struggle to get a 2.2, if Masters Degrees are now required because Batchelor's are worthless and then these certificates are similarly denigrated by the same process, then is it any wonder that over the last twenty years low-resolution thinking has become the benchmark of our intellectual capacity within society. The problem with the climate crisis discourse should not be seen as an isolated issue but as a massive free-floating iceberg in the oceans of thinking capable of sinking any ship of fools whilst being symptomatic of a thawing of intellectual power across the academic planet. We need to stand up for critical thinking and challenge any position which claims 100% authority. Such claims are the foundation of fascism.

​ @SeattlePioneer I think the mistake is to accept the "man in a white coat" mythology. That is to say, the mythology traditionally played out in films and advertising that the 'professor' is somehow an intellectual purist who rises above social politics in the search for an academic truth. The reality is that academic departments are filled with social politics and operated by hierarchies of self-interest. Promotion and the achievement of tenure are governed by non-intellectual behaviours which favour 'friends', subordinately loyal individuals and those who support the established thinking within any department. 'Peer Review' itself is presented as a space neutral of bias and prejudice but the history of human behaviour, especially in academia is filled to the brim with bias against critical thinking and challenging ideas. When Einstein first published his work on relativity one hundred German scientific academics signed a petition deriding the work as nonsense. The man in the white coat is very jealous of his status, position and intellect so he jealously guards that position against all who would challenge it. Peer Review has limited applications in a form where the identity of the author is known by the reviewers. Changing that one aspect would start to make a difference.

What's relevant here is the climate's sensitivity to CO2, not whether global warming occurs or its consequences. There's also a selection bias where positive hypotheses get published and negative hypotheses don't get submitted or published.

The scientific process ( and it's difficult to discern who is actually doing science ) involves seeking evidence that confirms or refutes whatever theory or hypothesis one is exploring...while experiments that test these theories must be reproducible. Most people can't be bothered doing any of that...and when debates like this occur it becomes a game of sorts...when the participants are ill matched or the conditions are rigged. i.e. William Lane Craig arranged a debate on the existence of "god" with the condition that to win, proof of non-existence was required. Since you can't prove a negative, whether its god, celestial teapots or pink unicorns such exercises are pointless...as was the mismatch here. Unfortunately becoming familiar with a topic like this requires effort and it must be approached without preconceptions...and you are on the right track...check everything out...and since the planet is 70% water which reacts to changes in temperature at slower rates and also has circulating currents which absorb CO2 at the poles and release it in the tropics, as well as convect heat, while also being affected by fresh water mixing...it is a critical component of both weather and climate. Also, as mentioned in my initial comment, I am not aware of any instance where increased CO2 was a leading indicator of warming...the warming occurs first, and causes the increase in CO2, which feedbacks to create more warming...which continues until the initial cause of the warming abates and the process reverses. ( this is essentially solar driven, combined with orbital variances and axial tilt ) At the moment none of these can be cited to account for the increased levels of CO2 or the resultant warming caused by it. And there are other factors and GHG's that are far more potent being added to the mix. As for the effects of climate change, they will make themselves known soon enough... although I expect debates like this will continue through it all without pause. I'm pretty sure that moving to Florida is not a good idea unless you are 90+ and you should probably have a boat handy just in case.

That's because higher CO2 means plants, and most certainly trees, are more water-efficient. They use and store water better than if they lack CO2. Remember, CO2 is plant food. A point I remember brought up elsewhere is that people have thought that talking to house plants made them healthier, when it's the fact that human breath contains 40,000 ppm of carbon dioxide when we exhale. That's why plants in homes look healthier and greener, not to mention the water vapor contained in our exhaled breath. Thus, if our breath can make house plants greener with increased CO2 and water vapor, then it follows the same would happen globally if the same conditions occurred. Not saying we would have to sustain a 40,000 ppm environment, but an increase above our current 420 ppm level certainly couldn't hurt.

Also it is not generally appreciated, that most deserts are more likely the the result of cooling of the earth's seas and oceans, and not as a result of warming. So increased CO2 might well cause change of climate over Sahara, Gobi and other desert regions, that they might green up and return to woodlands, forests or savannah ...

The fact that much of this is manufactured in China utilizing coal burning electric plants. Solar/Wind were also chosen by government as a replacement for fossil fuels to create electricity. The effect of making small changes from FF ( Fossil Fuels ) to Solar/Wind has effectively DOUBLED the cost of electricity for everyone on a grid where Solar/Wind has replaced FF to a small degree. The EMERGENCY is not a Climate Emergency or a Climate Crisis etc the real emergency is that we have reached a tipping point with a government initially designed to protect our individual rights from “ all foes foreign and domestic “ that has moved from protecting us to protecting itself and constantly increasing the scope of government power at every opportunity ( “ don’t ever let a catastrophic event go to waste. “ The bill of rights was designed to protect the individual citizen from the government. The whole structure of our system is designed to prevent the government from establishing too much power, too much influence and too much ability to control us. That’s why they created a system of “ checks and balances “. Unfortunately our government today is apparently incapable of understanding this or the Constitution or the ideas and philosophies which brought about the birth of the greatest nation in the history of the world. I submit if those in power in our government today and those who wish to be in the next administration tomorrow don’t understand the concept of Individual Rights upon which every good thing depends on for it’s existence.

But in case you haven't heard how we know AGW is real, here's the story in a nutshell: How do we know human activity is the main cause of recent warming? If the theory of man-made global warming is true, science should be able to verify that several things happen: 1) Burning fossil fuels should increase the levels of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide) in the atmosphere and oceans. 2) If the additional CO2 in the atmosphere was mostly due to human activity, the relative proportion of carbon 12/carbon 13 isotopes should gradually shift towards the ratio produced by burning fossil fuels. 3) After human activity has markedly increased levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases, the lower atmosphere and the oceans should get warmer than before. 4) After human activity has markedly increased levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases, the upper atmosphere should get cooler. 5) After human activity has markedly increased levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases, there should be an increase in the lower atmosphere of the specific wavelengths of thermal energy that specific greenhouses gases absorb and re-radiate. 6) After human activity has markedly increased levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases, there should be a decrease in the upper atmosphere of the specific wavelengths of thermal energy that specific greenhouses gases absorb and re-radiate. 7) Models of the relationship between levels of greenhouse gases and average global temperatures should predict global warming with reasonable accuracy. 8) Research that takes into consideration the effects of multiple natural factors (sun’s activity, earth’s orbit, etc.) and anthropogenic (man-made) factors on global temperatures should find that the addition of greenhouse gases due to burning fossil fuels contributed to a substantial degree to the amount of warming that has been observed. ALL eight of those predictions of climate science (plus others) have been confirmed by research. The fingerprints of AGW are all over the thermal content and CO2 volume and composition of the lower and upper atmosphere. Try all three levels, but especially see Figure 4 in the advanced level. skepticalscience.com/empirical-evidence-for-co2-enhanced-greenhouse-effect-advanced.htm www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2004/12/how-do-we-know-that-recent-cosub2sub-increases-are-due-to-human-activities-updated/ Also see www.theguardian.com/science/2019/jul/24/scientific-consensus-on-humans-causing-global-warming-passes-99 And if we stay on the path we are on, that leads towards mass die-offs and extinctions of most human and planetary life. Happily, there are hundreds of strategies for healing and restoring a healthy balance, but we will need to switch to lifestyles and an economic model that actually obey the limits and laws of nature. Take care.

This debate didn’t sound like a scientific debate due to Bennett’s sales peach style. He was just there to give Craig a hard time, like peaching for the globalists. He lowered the standard and the bar for Craig, but we the public can see through. Craig is so much above this person.

When Bennet said, that higher temperatures drives the weather catastrophes he was wrong. Its the temperature differences between the poles and the equator, and his own animation shows that the warming concentrates on the poles, so the temperature differences declines, and so the hurricanes and other extreme weather events will loose power.

"Weather" is just our name for the patterns of flow in the atmosphere, and in fluids like the ocean and atmosphere, PRESSURE gradient forces drive flow, NOT temperature. Temperature is the measure of the average internal energy of the constituent particles of the fluid medium, including kinetic energy. When that energy cannot be radiated into space because the extra C02, CH4, and other greenhouse gas molecules we have put into the atmosphere over the last 100 years absorb and re-emit the infrared radiation like a extra blanket on your bed, the increased energy is expressed most obviously as higher surface temperatures, and when fluids increase in temperature, they expand, creating sharper pressure gradients in the atmosphere, making the weather MORE extreme.

@@thomasbentele2468 I am not wrong, and you have no ground to stand on to claim I am. There is no such thing as a "CO2 religion", that phrase proves that you have been subject to malicious propaganda. Let me be clear: this is not a debate between two people of equal standing, this is my field of expertise and your response is nonsensical, incoherent gibberish, so I am acting as your instructor and educating you. The atmosphere is trapped against the surface of the planet by gravity, so there is not an "unlimited space" in which it will expand. Pressure results from the mass of fluid above a location within a gravity field and momentum of the fluids motion, the gradients in the pressure field because the atmosphere is a compressible fluid and in constant motion. Keep in mind, the basics of this is much more simple than fluid dynamics: the Earth receives energy from the sun, and when the atmosphere is not being altered, there is an equal amount of energy being radiated back into space creating a thermodynamic equilibrium, ie stable temperature. However, since we ARE altering the composition of the atmosphere which is indisputable, less energy is being radiated into space than we get from the Sun because specific molecules (greenhouse gases) absorb it, hence the observed average temperature increase of the entire planet. I wish you would accept the fact you don't know what you are talking about, and be humble, curious and willing to learn. Anyways, merry Christmas and happy new year to you as well.

This unqualified moron's major argument for *man* induced climate change, opens with the weather on Venus. Really!! The fake, fallacious news that the earth is similar to Venus to justify climate change, is typical of the absurd alarmism proselytized by these politically motivated, left wing socialists and climate evangelists.Apart from their similar size and mass, the earth is not a giant rock but covered 2/3 by water. What would you expect the temperature to be on a planet that has a day 243 times longer than earth ? Of *What would the temp' be on a planet that has virtually no water and no humidity and an atmosphere thickly clouded over by sulfuric acid mist. Then there's the blatant omission by this fool that Venus has a *dense atmosphere which is some 100 times thicker than the earth's.* Yet we hear Venus is proof by association, that minuscule changes in earth's CO2 is causing or about to result in catastrophic global warming! These claims are fanciful conjecture without any real scientific data to justify them. We know that the earth's atmosphere contains 0.04% CO2 but has been up to 10 times this concentration in the past which our ancestors not only lived through, but thrive in. Apparently these alarmists have no idea CO2 is NOT a pollutant but along with water and Heat, is the food for all life. FACT: not ONE of the speculative or computer generated doomsday predictions from these left wing loonies has ever come true, not one! Anyway, why should we ever expect climate not to change as it has done for millions of years, thru several ice ages? What makes theses crusaders think fossil fuels meager contribution of 3% to atmospheric CO2 is controlling global temperature rather than the other 97% that comes from natural plant respiration, undersea volcanoes, earthquakes, deforestation, solar flares, ocean dipole effects etc etc? Of course, I could go on to articulate the other lies regarding the "97% consensus" or the much asserted sea level rise. We all know why, dont we? Its all about left wing politics, power, ego, the redistribution of wealth, greed and the re-distribution of wealth along the lines of yes - Marxist socialism! *Just create a problem, along with the hysteria surrounding it, propose a possible cause and a solution and seek funding to study it.*

"HOW DARE YOU!!!." They all are. Thats their whole argument

"I'm not a climate scientist", "I can't tell you exactly what your misinterpreting"... This is scientist vs show man

I'm personally trying to get a grasp of this subject. One thing that I noticed is that Mr. Bennett minimized the proximity of Venus to the Sun vs Earth. As if being closer wasn't really something we should even consider, or that it was a minimal detail subordinate to C02 levels. Two things that are important related to Venus. 1, Venus receives nearly double the solar radiation as earth, 2,576 watts per square meter vs Earth's 1,321 watts. Secondly, C02 is 96% of the atmosphere on Venus vs .04% on Earth. But back to the Venus energy input, it's double Earth and that is huge. If you convert 100F to Kelvin (310K) and double it, 620K results in 656F. So a place on Earth (excluding other variables) that regularly reaches 100F would reach 600F with double the solar energy from the Sun? "Sure Venus is going to be a little closer to it (the Sun) but not enough to account for that enormous temperature difference" Completely incorrect using simple math and data available to everyone. If the Earth received the amount of solar energy that Venus does, it would be too hot to sustain life.

I don't know who is right about this but I do notice a trend with the alarmists to constantly fall back on appeal to authority and emotion which is a tendency for anyone who doesn't have the evidence on their side.

Interesting how the alarmist chooses Venus as a comparator to earth. If you include Mars, you see that CO2 concentrations aren’t the smoking gun. What does seem more relevant is atmospheric pressure. If you compare the temperatures on each of the three planets at altitudes with similar atmospheric pressures, you see something very instructive.

This was a great debate. Thank you. Somehow, people who believe in catastrophic climate change always appear to believe that I have an obligation to agree with them, rather than them having an obligation to convince me of their apocalyptic predictions. The three most common things I hear from people when I ask them to make the case for it are 1) they're not an expert, 2) they're not familiar with the specific data off-hand, and 3) "experts" who do exist agree with them, and therefore so should I. This seems to be the case at every level I've encountered so far. Friends and family, "skeptics" I follow on social media, intelligent members of academia, etc. And here, I hear it again multiple times in this debate from an astronomer no less. I thought that if I kept climbing up the food chain, at some point someone would stop pointing to these other experts, and would be able to actually tell me themselves why I should believe that climate change will destroy or seriously impair our civilization (other than the obviously oxymoronic "scientific consensus"). I'm growing less confident in that by the day. It looks like it's turtles all the way down.

@@upasakalee "Consensus isn't how science arrives at truth, and it isn't why I believe that smoking causes cancer. There is a thing called evidence." You're right, science decides what is true based on evidence, and the reason there is overwhelming consensus amongst people who actually study global climate change that humans caused recent warming is because there is overwhelming evidence proving it. FYI: All the major predictions of the theory of man-made global warming have come true and there are 14 different climate models that accurately predicted how much our additional emissions would warm the planet. Climate scientists already have the global warming part figured out and have moved onto harder problems regarding regional impacts and feedback loops.

If this trend continues CO2 will inevitably fall to levels that threaten the survival of plants, which require a minimum of 150 ppm to survive. If plants die all the animals, insects, and other invertebrates that depend on plants for their survival will also die.

the nuclear power plant just a few miles away from me was built in 1975. alarmists who claim no nuclear because of all the waste it produces, since 1975 the waste it produced still has not fill a room that is 9x10, when the plant was build, they built 100 rooms 60 feet under ground, liner with lead, concrete and steel. there is enough room to store waste for over 1000 years of production, now they are switching to thorium, which will generate roughly 10x less waste,,

The planet orbits the Sun faster than Earth, however, so one year on Venus takes only about 225 Earth days, making a Venusian day longer than its year.

I suspect they didn't want that, they wanted to create the illusion of a meaningful debate. Meanwhile, the evidence is overwhelming humans have caused recent global warming, and I suspect Idso knows that.

Not according to Supreme Court Judge Roberts who we can thank for ruling with the leftist Judges on the Court that CO2 is a pollutant and thus subject to the EPA’s esoteric machinations. Thanks to Roberts all the Greens now have a potent weapon needed in order for them to harass, restrain, sue, manage, halt projects and utilize government bureaucracies to slow, alter and stop a myriad of beneficial entrepreneurial activities etc. In terms of individual liberty the Greens have been allowed/encouraged to obfuscate, misrepresent, misinterpret and manipulate data in order to justify the drastic alterations of the economy that they have been most obvious about. They want America to become a Socialist state and they desperately want to end Capitalism that all religions view as evil because Capitalism is based on selfishness. Capitalists are individuals who are primarily concerned with their own life their own self interest and the overwhelming desire to strive for one’s own values and happiness. If you were drowning and so was my daughter and I wasn’t sure I had time to save you both, without a second of thought or hesitation I would save my daughter and then and only then I would do everything ,except overly risk my life , in my power to save you. Even if I knew the government would execute me for not choosing to save the stranger first because putting your personal values above the State mandate to give equal help to anyone in need which requires you to sacrifice and saving your daughter first is not a sacrifice because you’re actually saving one of your greatest values, your daughter. Of course the last was fictional however conceptually with everything that our government reps have accepted and are accepting ideologically it’s not as far leap to that fiction as you might think.

What most people (including many "climate scientists") don’t seem to get is that Joseph Fourier thought he was seeing what we now call "the greenhouse effect" but in fact what he was seeing, in de Saussure’s boxes, was how greenhouses actually work. - Preventing convection. _The GHE theory is ALL about radiation_. But radiation is NOT the _principle_ method of heat transport in a liquid like our 71% oceans or a gaseous environment like earth’s atmosphere. _Here it is convection & conduction_ (!) that carry the _Lion’s share_ of heat up out of the troposphere. Thermodynamics 101. Convection and conduction disburse heat accumulated unevenly due to whatever cause (clouds, albedo, etc.). Even if radiative forcing were true (it's not), convection & conduction easily overpower its feeble attempts to stratify thermal energy and keep surplus heat at surface. ^Heat causes ^evaporation. This water vapour convects, bypassing the absorption layer & condenses near the tropopause, releasing latent heat which is then radiated mainly to space. The open atmosphere does NOT work as a "blanket", because it doesn't constrain convection (a major cooling mechanism). This "blanketing effect" was first proposed by Fourier in 1827 and is based on a misconception about how glass greenhouses work. It's simply wrong.

160 years is a blip in the earth timescale, in fact 160 years are exactly 2 dots in polar ice core samples. Two dots! Data of this tiny time period is insignificantly tiny for any valid projection.

I feel sorry for Jeffrey. He didn't support his position very well. Craig has facts and there are many, many more.

Bennett (CO2 alarmist) closes with a "write a hyprocritical letter, to your hypothetical grandchildren" exercise (of course, you are required to write it from the starting assumption that he is right), purely designed to make the participant feel guilty for an outcome of his determination. That's not "debate", that's "emotional blackmail"

As a scientific lay person, but open minded to what's happening to the climate. I have to say Craig at least appears, more knowledgeable and convincing than Jeffrey, who has the demeanour closer to a salesman than a scientist.

If warming at a certain point starts producing a lot of low level cumulus clouds, then it is game over for the warming. Warming -> more water vapor -> more clouds -> higher albedo -> cooling. You can actually see this in real time everyday in the tropics. Hotter days leads to cloudy days.
