An Even Simpler Proof of Global Warming by Greenhouse Gases

How do we know that Greenhouse Gases are affecting the radiation budget -- and thus warming -- the Earth? Well, you measure them in action, of course!

In 2001, scientists from the UK wrote a paper detailing the measurements of orbital satellites. The satellites measure, among other things, outgoing infrared (IR) radiation from Earth -- literally, the sun's light energy re-emitted in a different form. What the paper highlights is that less and less IR has been escaping into space since measurements began to be taken.

Not only this, but the blockage of IR has been caused by long term changes in C02 and other long-lived greenhouse gases. Every GHG "absorbs" energy at a given and certain wavelength -- what some scientists call "fingerprints". The data shows that C02, amongst others, is a prime absorber, given its unique "fingerprint'.

Thus, we can easily infer that temperature changes, since they result from changes in the amount of energy leaving earth, have been caused by greenhouse gases. We can also rule out the solar influence because of stratospheric cooling (see my other video).

Note: there are some spelling mistakes in the video, one of which is "nitrious", which ought to be spelled, "nitrous". My apologies!

Green plants have ensured that there has been no increase in free carbon dioxide over last two centuries. There has been an increase in life on earth.

@JonThm @JonThm This is the only other comment I will make in regards to this: unless you have done an analysis on total primary productivity (i.e. the amount of biomassas, as can be detected by satellite and other measures) - and the current ones show no massive change of the kind that would be expected if there was indeed "no increase in free carbon" - then you are a LIAR. And you have no business even discussing this iss

[BeachofDreams]

@JonThm You still refuse to engage in the matter at hand. You keep on repeating the same thing over and over, and we have addressed it, and then you continue. You do not to deserve to comment here further. I will continue to delete your videos and your comments.

@JonThm

You had shown no willingness in a conversation, only desire to impose your "ideas" on others.

I have no desire for that, and I do not want to litter this page with anymore curse words. The author of this video does not deserve that.

Your imposing desire and unwillingness to engage in a two way conversation is appalling.

I really hate you and in an unlikely chance that we'll ever meet I will assault you.

You're a disgusting human being.

@AndrianGA photosynthesis pegs free carbon dioxide levels in the air. At 2ppm outside of an ice ages. When carbon dioxide levels rise, so it obviously doesn't cause global warming. Go wash your mind out with quick drying cement

[JonThm]

@AndrianGA high school biology predicts this. With no profanity. But there again you are failing stupid aren't you

[AndrianGA]

@JonThm

"It has remained static for last 200 years."

Fuck you

[AndrianGA]

@JonThm

"no increase in free carbon dioxide over last two centuries."

Fuck you

[JonThm]

Biology converts additional carbon dioxide into extra life on earth. Not extra carbon dioxide in the air. That is a lie by nuclear power

[JonThm]

@BeachofDreams green plants convert any additional carbon dioxide into additional life. Except in an ice ages, when there are fewer growing green plants. Basic biology.
