Trump got climate change almost entirely wrong in his Paris speech

[jacksmar]

you guys are really funny. the emails show they were liars and you bought it like a chia pet or a pet rock.

what good does a degree do for a liar?

the whole fucking thing is hokum. there are no vampires, walking dead, global warming, werewolves, and there is no van halen without David Lee Roth.

but it's fun watching you guys shoot the breeze...

A Band Played at the White House Before Trump’s Climate Announcement, and, Yes, It Was Just Like Titanic

On Thursday afternoon, Donald Trump announced his decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement. (The Paris Agreement was formally signed and enacted last year and endeavors to limit global warming. Including the United States, 195 nations signed it.) While waiting for Trump to take the microphone, a military band warmed up the crowd with some jazz music. Because nothing says “we’re not worried about melting ice caps and a disintegrating ozone layer” like a few smooth jazz tunes. Immediately, people on Twitter began comparing the scene to another moment in history when a band played to a crowd awaiting — quite literally in this case — their doom: The string orchestra that famously played on the deck on the sinking Titanic.

Levels of the greenhouse gas methane begin to increase again

New surge ends a decade of stability; cause still unknown

The amount of methane in Earth's atmosphere shot up in 2007, bringing to an end a period of about a decade in which atmospheric levels of the potent greenhouse gas were essentially stable, according to a team led by MIT researchers.

Methane levels in the atmosphere have more than tripled since pre-industrial times, accounting for around one-fifth of the human contribution to greenhouse gas-driven global warming. Until recently, the leveling off of methane levels had suggested that the rate of its emission from the Earth's surface was approximately balanced by the rate of its destruction in the atmosphere.

However, since early 2007 the balance has been upset, according to a paper on the new findings being published this week in Geophysical Review Letters. The paper's lead authors, postdoctoral researcher Matthew Rigby and Ronald Prinn, the TEPCO Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry in MIT's Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Science, say this imbalance has resulted in several million metric tons of additional methane in the atmosphere. Methane is produced by wetlands, rice paddies, cattle, and the gas and coal industries, and is destroyed by reaction with the hydroxyl free radical (OH), often referred to as the atmosphere's "cleanser."

One surprising feature of this recent growth is that it occurred almost simultaneously at all measurement locations across the globe. However, the majority of methane emissions are in the Northern Hemisphere, and it takes more than one year for gases to be mixed from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere. Hence, theoretical analysis of the measurements shows that if an increase in emissions is solely responsible, these emissions must have risen by a similar amount in both hemispheres at the same time.

A rise in Northern Hemispheric emissions may be due to the very warm conditions that were observed over Siberia throughout 2007, potentially leading to increased bacterial emissions from wetland areas. However, a potential cause for an increase in Southern Hemispheric emissions is less clear.

An alternative explanation for the rise may lie, at least in part, with a drop in the concentrations of the methane-destroying OH. Theoretical studies show that if this has happened, the required global methane emissions rise would have been smaller, and more strongly biased to the Northern Hemisphere. At present, however, it is uncertain whether such a drop in hydroxyl free radical concentrations did occur because of the inherent uncertainty in the current method for estimating global OH levels.

To help pin down the cause of the methane increase, Prinn said, "the next step will be to study this using a very high-resolution atmospheric circulation model and additional measurements from other networks." But doing that could take another year, he said, and because the detection of increased methane has important consequences for global warming the team wanted to get these initial results out as quickly as possible.

"The key thing is to better determine the relative roles of increased methane emission versus an idecrease in the rate of removal," Prinn said. "Apparently we have a mix of the two, but we want to know how much of each" is responsible for the overall increase.

It is too early to tell whether this increase represents a return to sustained methane growth, or the beginning of a relatively short-lived anomaly, according to Rigby and Prinn. Given that, pound for pound, methane is 25 times more powerful as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, the situation will require careful monitoring in the near future.

In addition to Rigby and Prinn, the study was carried out by researchers at Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Bristol and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. These methane measurements come from the Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment (AGAGE) that is supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the Australian CSIRO network.

Climate change institute shut down

After a University decision to cut all its funding, Yale’s Climate & Energy Institute will close by the end of June.

The loss of the institute, which for the last eight years has conducted research related to issues of climate change, leaves a hole in climate and energy studies at Yale. Although the Energy Studies academic program will continue within Yale College, students in the YCEI said they were outraged by the budget cuts and subsequent closure of an institute that is one of the only research-focused climate change programs for undergraduates on campus. The announcement came in a Monday afternoon email to the YCEI community from institute co-directors and geology and geophysics professors David Bercovici and Jay Ague, and follows years of cuts to the institute’s funding, according to students involved in the organization.

Here's where some of your increased methane is coming from....

...the rest is coming from the melting of the polar ice caps, as the methane had been trapped under the ice (cue the Metallica song) for fuck knows how many millennia, but when the ice melts, it's gotta go somewhere. And the only place for a gas to go is up into the atmosphere.

Hey, you F A T, flaky Florida fuck, you really are one gullible simpleton who prefers to let others do his thinking for you. Lies, cherry picking and exaggeration. Complete lack of science. Plain old bullshit. Gullible bigoted F A T fuck simpleton asscrack laps it all up uncritically.

Why let a lying charlatan, someone with NO knowledge of science or of climate do your thinking for you? There is no certainty that we will have a GSM, none at all.

If we do have a GSM:

1. The extra 40+% CO2 in the atmosphere will limit any drop in temperature and there is also a lot of heat stored in the ocean

2. We may warm up as a result of the GSM as the sun may emit more IR but less UV.

Comments, your fracking Floridian F A T faggy fuck ?

The fucking irony of someone from Florida of all places being a climate change denier

It's a real shame because that drive down to the Keys is something special I guess my kids will never be able to do that now.

Oh well...

all those man made coal and car factories running during the ice age reduced the coast line...

bring your kids, and drive from miami if you like anytime in the next 100 years. there's a pride parade next week, drive back up to the cape and watch a Space X launch, and don't miss St Augustine; the oldest city in the US.

Daytona has car race in July too... fyi...

nice try...

i put up a pic of the earth and sun and your explanation is: man, it's somehow our fault.

that article says nothing about whether humans are responsible for climate change not not.

your energy would be better spent on the quality of our drinking water, local freshwater sources and watersheds, and the impact on forests by smog and pollutants. the warming/cooling cycles of the earth are way beyond your control...

what's tweaking your tampon , kristy?

you're no expert on the subject on you would have noted that CO2 levels lag temperature increases. always.

these guys got it wrong.

Last time I checked, CO2 made up something like .03 -.04% of our atmosphere.

The Paris deal is about the US paying $1 billion into the green fund. The Paris deal has nothing to do with climate. It's about economics, globalism, and the controlled redistribution of wealth. The left set this crap up years ago by using multinational financial interests and EPA policies.

It's about control.
