Freeman Dyson on Global Warming 2of2 Stratospheric Cooling

A prominent scientist who's followed the science of global warming from the beginning, Dyson explains why climate models have no scientific merit, why average global ground temperature is a great fiction, and what he believes the real dangers of increased CO2 in the atmosphere are. He suggests that the relatively simple solution of land use management could potentially give us the ability to control the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere at any level we'd like, and there's no need to stop burning coal and oil.

This guy was offered a university degree at age 19.

He is an absolute genius.

You may want to listen.

cooling since 99 .......but in reality since the sunspots and therefore solar activity have chilled ....the temperatures are easy to sense both in northern hemisphere as cooling.

But then global warming is the religion of the left. Don your global warming monk robes and say humeda humeda humeda hummmm

photosynthesis production with 10% of oil profits by international law? is that also worth defeating with misinformation? if so it a choice od doom over stable income. nal law

[DastreagusLetobeiter]

at best you can enter this data in the computer model. no data disproves events of fact. personally i agree with dyson deforestation is the coupled cause with more co2 releases.

That 100 cubic miles of fossil fuels that has been converted into CO2 has released FAR more than any natural event since at least 600,000 years ago, according to ice core data. Ppm is only some 40% more in the air, but the actual release is much more (as according to historic human CO2 emission data based on how much FF we burned). Therefore, not only is it supposed to be cool to change the very air, is it supposed to be cool to change the very acidity of the oceans?! Irresponsible, eh?

[WaxItYourself]

@angelpbj I don't know why you people keep bring this up. Anthropogenic burning of fossil fuels and the resultant release of CO2 IS NOT a natural effect of a warming atmosphere. You claiming that it is is completely insane. Human emissions = 30gt per years; Atmospheric increase - 15gt per year.

This is obviously an old video since he claims we can't measure the temperatures over the oceans - well NASA does this since more than 15 years very very accurately...

[angelpbj]

@fireofenergy CO2 is created by cyclic warming of Earth surface, probably in relation with solar activity, internal re-structuring of Earth, etc. It is therefore a *consequence* of the cyclic warming not its cause.

to totally, we have upped the co2 count by over 50%. If you think that's silly, should think again

[totallyunderpowered]

@fireofenergy There's also no denying that filling a space with an excess of CO2 can cause one to suffocate. However, no one's worried that our planet is going to choke to death from manmade CO2...that would be silly.

For similar reasons, it's pretty silly to be worried about manmade atmospheric CO2 and global warming. It's just a small part of earth's carbon dynamic. Just as human action put the extra carbon there, human action could remove quite a lot. No one's trying to do so yet.

[fireofenergy]

Land use will not change enough to absorb all that extra CO2 we are espousing unless that "use" safely sequesters it... which is doubtful unless a new scientific breakthrough is developed that enables it to become part of actual rocks for much less energy as is required to do so today... (forgot the term for it).

Truly, the scope of the amount of FF's we convert over is TOTALLY MIND BLOWING...
