  • Where is he getting 2% increase in cloud cover mitigates global warming? Clouds backscatter IR particularly at night.

  • "A team of UC Berkeley physicists and statisticians that set out to challenge the scientific consensus on global warming is finding that its data-crunching effort is producing results nearly identical to those underlying the prevailing view."

    Huh, would you look at that. Does anyone care to take a guess who conducted this study? Richard Muller.

  • The earth has always warmed and cooled. There still is no proof that the warming of the last 150 years is unnatural and caused by man. There is only evidence that it is natural.

  • Wait a second!

    You accept the complicated model because it validates you back of envelope equation???

    Shouldn't it be validated by empirical observation?

    Especially when the model was created with the express goal of validating your back of the envelope calculation?

    If you have a complex system wherein you only model positive feedbacks and ignore negative ones you should not be surprised that you get runaway anything.

  • Does that water increase cloud cover? Probably not, but they are not sure" - 20:20.

    Check out the "Iris effect" in the "Clouds Mitigate Global Warming, New Evidence Shows" article.
