Also, the idea that steak is responsible for climate change is the most fucking retarded thing ever. All the CO2 the cow emits comes from the grass they eat which comes from the air and soil.

CO2 is a known greenhouse gas. It traps heat by letting visible light through and reflecting infrared light (heat).

Humans began burning carbon fuel from the ground, releasing carbon dioxide. The average global temperature has increased quite rapidly since then, the fastest the earth has ever warmed as far as we know. But that’s just a coincidence right?

What info do you have that makes you skeptical of anthropogenic CO2’s effect on global climate? Or is it more of a gut feeling, A general distrust of authority?

It's not because of co2 it's because their manufactured diet makes their gastrointestinal system less efficient so they produce more methane 200 liters a day or 200 pounds per cow per year, 20 times worse a greenhouse gas, they are responsible for 9 percent of greenhouse gasses emitted by weight. bison make less methane per pound of mass, even though there were 45 mil bison in us vrs a billion cows world wide, 90 million cows in the us, and we(Usa) eat 30 million a year, after them living for 5 years importing most our beef, the solution is dietary enzymes, new gut bacteria, feed them less corn, and just general dietary changes at industrial scales, which is difficult, I don't belive changing diet worldwide is a real solution, I loooove beef

But that methane is part of the natural carbon cycle between atmosphere -> earth -> animal -> atmosphere & earth. Whatever carbon they are putting into the sky is coming from it at some point. It is completely different than burning fossil fuels because then you are taking carbon that has been stored in the ground for millions of years and releasing it into the atmosphere.

Cloud seeding is a proposed form of climate change mitigation that has several drawbacks. You might be interested to know that recent legislation reduced sulfur emissions with the intent of reducing acid rain and it had the unintended side effect of reducing cloud cover and therefore global dimming, which in turn allowed additional heating.

There’s new research coming out that has mentions in Science and Nature that we may have been unintentionally geo engineering for decades because of the sulfur in shipping boats induced significant bright cloud seeding that noticeably slowed down warming. Now that regulations have removed that sulfur, there’s significantly less clouds and less bright clouds. It may related to the unprecedented marine heat being observed right now

The new parts of the research are mostly data about measuring how much the new policies have affected what's known as global dimming, which is when cloud cover reflects more of the suns light away. We've been researching it for decades. We caused global dimming, mostly with sulfur like you said, which partly shielded us from global warming. Now we've begun to reverse it, which is beneficial in a number of ways, but also we will gradually lose that shield and experience more warming. You should read up on it, especially because seeding clouds to mitigate climate change relies on causing global dimming and it has been a popular topic.

I'm 100% smarter than you. I'm basically a God compared to what meager activity is going on inside your brain (which is basically nothing). The reason methane coming from cows is not the equivalent of dumping loads of CO2 into the atmosphere is because the cow is taking CO2 from the atmosphere to make methane. Whereas when you drive your car you are taking carbon that has been in the ground for millions of years and putting it into the atmosphere.

Global warming is a mass mental illness propagated by all kinds of bottom and top feeders, deranged women and basedmen, third world whiners, and le epic reddit scientists.

Western consumption is unsustainable but yet we insist on bringing more consumers into the population.

I think a lot of climate deniers are simply uncomfortable with the fact that humans can have such a large effect on the world. There are many cases of ancient human societies harming their local ecosystems to the point where they ultimately harmed themselves. Now that humans are a global species they’ve started to negatively affect the globe.

I think they’re scared of the possibility of such large negative consequences, so they claim conspiracy and fraud. To them it’s more comfortable to think that a small group of people decide how things go, and that the world is not a large chaotic process.

Interesting point about Mars. Let’s dissect it.

You’re correct, Mars proportionally has a lot more CO2. But that doesn’t translate to having a stronger total greenhouse than Earth, because there are other things that contribute to total greenhouse effect. Namely being other greenhouse gases, like gaseous water which Mars lacks, and solar energy, which Mars has less of since it’s further from the sun.

If Mars were perfectly identical to Earth except it had 20x the CO2 then yes it would have a much stronger greenhouse.

CO2 is not the only factor in how warm a planet is. But it certainly is a factor, and more CO2 means it will be warmer, all else being equal. You can’t deny carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, it’s simple physics.

I don't believe the methane has a higher impact than co2. This is a chart of the wavelengths each greenhouse gas absorbs. Each gas can only absorb specific wavelengths, and the more gas is absorbing that specific wavelength the more saturated it becomes and you would have to keep doubling the amount of gas to get the same warming effect. This is well known. But Look at methane and water vapor, notice how methane overlaps with water? So the extremely minimal amount of radiation being absorbed by methane (which was already absorbed by water) has a 20-80x bigger impact than co2? I just don't buy it.

>> No.15673406

How does that logic work? Water doesn’t absorb and reflect all of the infrared light that earth radiates, so by increasing the amount of a gas that absorbs and reflects infrared light- even if it’s the same wavelength- won’t it still act as a greenhouse gas? There’s plenty of infrared to go around.

You’d be right if water absorbed and reflected 100% of infrared light, leaving none for methane to reflect.

Like if you a had a department of cops that shot black, brown, and yellow people on sight, there’s still more people than cops. Say a new department comes in, different cops and they only shoot black people on sight, the number of black people getting shot will still increase, even though they overlap in what they do.

In terms of total emissions, yes, but globally we produce 780 million metric tons of rice and 100 million metric tons of pork (carcass weight). We produce more than three times the calories from rice than from pork.

The reason rice has such a high impact is because it's grown in flooded paddies and the anaerobic decomposition in the submerged mud creates methane and nitrous oxide. Rice doesn't need to be grown in flooded paddies, but doing so helps prevent pest infestation and plant disease, and often the paddy is used for some type of aquaculture as well to grow rice.

There is but one simple question I'd like to see answered: what is the source of those major carbon dioxide spikes which occurred before modern civilization existed and which nobody historically denies? These spikes happened before human industrialization could be blamed. I do not wish to discuss what causes the current spike. Let's completely put aside the question of what is causing the current spike, let's do a funny different thing and focus entirely on the past. What caused those previous spikes? If I was utterly deranged I would look at this graph and get the psychotic idea that it might have to do with orbital mechanics due to the suspiciously cyclic pattern, but we all know that can't be right so let's explore the more rational alternatives.

Is the Earth cyclically being hit by meteors carrying gigantic amount of carbon dioxide? Is the Earth cyclically developing unknown lifeforms that dump mass amount of carbon dioxide and leave no fossils? Are people from the future using time travel to dump pollution in the past? Please no trolling I'm 100% serious. Surely there must be a satisfying explanation with meteors/mystery lifeforms/time travel which explains why all these spikes are unique disconnected events of fantastic origins each, which are also set to never repeat again, as such that any current of future spikes can only be human-driven.

It's mostly stored in the ocean. As the sun's activity increases the ocean gets warmer and carbon dioxide that was dissolved returns to the atmosphere until the sun cools down again. That's why carbon dioxide has historically lagged behind increases in temperature. Modern warming is caused by humans releasing the huge store of carbon that fossil fuels represent back into the atmosphere. We know that we are the source of this carbon dioxide because of the ratio of isotopes of that carbon dioxide. Pic related.

This is key aspect of it, long term models haven't *predicted* anything (yet), pretending models are somehow settled science and not extremly sensitive to input bias is disingenous. Geologic data is fine, but there's a difference between "the earth is warming" which I wouldn't dispute and "my model is accurate™ proof that rising CO2 will increase GMT by 2°C by 2040" which is the key point of the current climate strategy. Providing non falsifiable model caculations of the earths climate over and over and over again as the "evidence based" foundation for global CO2 management is a little ridicouless, no other serious field (except economics which is a complete disaster) works like that, but here it's used to effect massive changes in the social and economic structure of the modern world

What about it? The cause of the glacial-interglacial periods due to the uptake and release of CO2 from the ocean is well known. This cyclicity changed the atmospheric CO2 concentration by at most 100ppm, which took tens of thousands of years to increase, same with temperature. We have added 160ppm in just 100 years which has driven the extremely rapid temperature increase.

Ah, my bad. You said where CO2 was stored. I didn't ask where CO2 was stored. I asked what causes the CO2 spikes and that means discussing the mechanics which produces it and releases it. You talk about what releases it and therefore I ask: and what else? I would like to keep this conversation nice and tidy. Am I to understand that you believe the Earth is experience cyclics increase in temperature and CO2 as a result of orbital parameters? Your correction toward the other anon is worded strangely to me. Here's what I mean:

>the release and storage of CO2 in the ocean aren't controlled by solar activity output, It's triggered by insolation changes controlled by orbital parameters (Milankovich Cycles).
>the release and storage of CO2 [...] is triggered by orbital parameters.
>the storage of CO2 [...] is triggered by orbital parameters
How does a planet's orbit causes CO2 storage? The releases, certainly that makes sense to talk about, but you wrote storage and release. I can only read that sentence and interpret that you believe the planet's orbit causes CO2 to spontaneously start existing in the oceans. That does not seem right so I must be off. So where does it comes from? I can see an argument that orbital parameters cause temperature changes which increases something which is the ocean's natural production of CO2 but that isn't quite what you wrote. It would be disrespectful for me to assume that it's what you mean, so I can only ask if you could clarify some more. I recognize that my knowledge is incomplete, so I would like to know your full answer. Thank you in advance. This is such a nice board.

What is the source of the concentration of CO2 in the ocean which contributed to the cyclic emission of carbon dioxide that the planet has historically experienced? There's only so many ways I can re-phrase the concept that talking about what releases storages of CO2 does not answers a question about where it comes from. This is the equivalent of repeatedly inquiring where an agricultural food produce is locally grown and be repeatedly answered that it comes from the kitchen. Yes, and before that?

I do not want to be the guy who bogs down a thread with reiterations so it would be convenient if someone could click on a post which contains a question and then answer that question.

Don't post at all. Not because I disagree with it, not because I don't believe it, not because I erroneously wish to discard it as irrelevant. No, I say this simply because it was already done, the concept of CO2 storage and release in oceans was mentioned, that's great, repeating it will add nothing.

Then cyclical conditions would release it once and that's it. The Earth's oceans would contain X amount of CO2 as per the formation of the planet, then X orbital conditions would occur and release X amount, and this would be set to never happen again. This certainly doesn't seems right. Something cannot be cyclically released over and over without a sister theory about that which stores it. I am asking about that which stores it. You are right that it was always there on the planet generally speaking, I am asking about that which pertains to the increasing concentration in the water, or any other storage hypothesis that might come up and cause the cyclical patterns I wish to discuss.

They acted as if they held an answer which relates to a thermal equilibrium, but refused to explain what they are thinking about. The same applies here, I respectfully concede that I truly have no idea what your opinion is. You never spoke it. I have no way of knowing whether you happen to personally believe that the sun cyclically undergoes periods of increased activity. It might be what you are thinking off, it might not be. Which is it?

>If any further person wants to click on a post in this discussion thread and bring up the subject of CO2 storage in water, I ask that you refrain from doing so. Just resist the urge. Don't post at all. Not because I disagree with it, not because I don't believe it, not because I erroneously wish to discard it as irrelevant. No, I say this simply because it was already done, the concept of CO2 storage and release in oceans was mentioned, that's great, repeating it will add nothing. Now all that's left is to answer the question of where the CO2 comes from. The combined knowledge of what cyclically contributes to the production, storage and release of CO2 forms the answer to my simple question. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

I don’t know what’s so hard to understand about the contributions and fluxes of carbon from the terrestrial biosphere and the oceanic phytoplankton

This word was never spoken once in this thread nor is it contained in the picture you quoted. Did you post in the wrong thread? If not then what are you even talking about, who are you talking to, what are you replying to? I might understand your opinion better if you will speak it. Don't worry, we have all the time in the world. Take it easy. I have to say, it's good to have a science board where everyone is friendly, concise and communicative in their replies.

You're stupid as all fuck. If 0.04% of the atmosphere was hydrogen cyanide, you'd be dead. If it was CFCs we'd be baked alive etc. 0.04% of something with a strong effect, like the effect of CO2, is important you utter fucking moron. Also:

The average temperature of the oceans and the atmosphere is what modifies the equilibrium. You would know this if you bothered to look up what a thermal equilibrium is. The variations in solar activity are what has historically influenced those temperatures, but modern warming is dominated by the forcings caused by our emissions. Are you being retarded on purpose?

Little did you know, it's not the average person causing the most climate change, it's the companies who are dumping shit in the ocean and polluting the environment; and at one point, they are going to try to blame the average person instead of fixing their act.
It has nothing to do with food, it's all companies releasing shit into the ocean and the atmosphere so they can get a quick buck.

Alright. Looks like we're doing this again. Can you post the data which has convinced you that the sun goes in periods of increased activity which historically coincides with the bursts of CO2/Temperature that we are discussing?

No thanks that's okay, just skip that process and post the data itself. Much better this way. I heartily recommend that simple course of action because wikipedia is a collection of reference links, just post the references themselves. Posting the exact data you are thinking about would allow ourselves to discuss the data. I still have little idea about what opinion you actually possess and what data you specifically want to refer to.

Here. I yanked some data from one of your own link. The study is massively outdated and extremely limited. I don't see much mention of support from the scientific community. Lastly, I can look at the picture myself and with my own two eyes and say that I don't find it particularly satisfying. There is one vaguely matching curve and many divergent peaks, seems pretty random. It also mentions a number of sunspots whereas I'd like to see more profound data about exact levels of solar radiation. But perhaps this isn't the data you've seen and that you want to discuss? It's in those links, but those links contain main things and you don't necessarily agree with all of them. Maybe it's relevant data to you, maybe it's not. I won't disrespect you with baseless assumptions.

I have to say, I am slightly puzzled by the fact that another anon posted in this thread to correct the solar activity and call it wrong, while all I am doing is cautiously asking you to show the data, but you appear solely dedicated to replying to me over and over, ignoring the other person altogether. I am only asking to see the data, there is another person straight up calling you wrong. What am I missing? I'm happy to learn more about divergent opinions. We're all friends here.
