no one denies climate is changing. The right tends to deny humans are the cause. I'm more or less in the middle, I think humans are contributing but the evidence of it is vastly overblown. There's a reason /sci/ gets trolled by so many climate change threads, because most people claiming the evidence is undeniable are just parroting others. In any case, it is a far cry from being established science.

the evidence
The evidence itself. you do realize what an argument ad populum is right? tell me, what irrefutable evidence is there that humans are the cause? saying it's very widely accepted just reiterates my earlier point about the most ardent supporters having little knowledge of the subject. Again, I do believe that humans are very likely to be contributing to climate change. I would even say that it's likely that the contribution is significant (i.e. speeding it up by some factor), but saying that it's almost a certainty and comparing it to gravity is a huge intellectual failure.

>tl:dr Greenhouse effect via basic physics, humans being the main source of net increase...
This, again, is nothing I disagree with. It's generally accepted that greenhouse gasses change climate. It's an obvious fact that that humans are contributing greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere. Can you quantify the effects of this? How much faster is the climate changing? How bad would the consequences be? how fast would it increase (or not increase) if humans contributed no greenhouse gasses?

Yeah, you're so "objective" that you asked for evidence and then complained when it was presented to you, in an easily digestible form, because I didn't "cite" it.

but, logically, it is. It is no less fallacious if the ones who believe it are scientists than if they are randoms on a bus. If multiverse theory is believed by most physicists does that make it real or even any more likely? Climatologist can believe anything for any number of things. If the major reason is the evidence for it, then say the evidence instead of simply pointing out the belief. Pointing to just popularity, no matter the group, is asanine.
>That's not very hard - basically all of it is public and can be downloaded off the websites of the groups who collected it.

and you don't get to say "other's have already argued, therefore my argument is their argument". You also don't get to blindly link something without stating the points you're making by linking it. It's not that it's too long, it's that you're basically asking me to make your argument for you. I could read the whole thing and still have nothing to refute because you didn't make any points. You have a terrible habit of pointing to others to fight for you.
>all of that is covered in the report they linked
Then cite where, and specifically state your interpretation of what you're citing. You're not making any real arguments here, you're just basically making the "google it" argument.

DIY Exit Bag Insturctions:

Do practice this first, because you may be quite incapacitated when you try to do it, and the bag in particular should be prepared in advance as.

This is a self-use bag is designed to allow the sufferer to end his or her life in dignity and in a peaceful way.

Essentially, the idea is to place a plastic bag over the head and draw a string tight enough to be airtight, allowing the person to quietly die from asphyxiation/oxygen deprivation.

Do practice this first, because you may be quite incapacitated when you try to do it.

If used without an inert gas, a carbon dioxide build-up will happen, which is unpleasant and will elicit a panic response. This can continue even into unconsciousness, and the bag may be ripped off, causing failure and further stress. Using an inert gas prevents CO2 building up and allows one to die of oxygen deprivation. (and with oxygen deprivation, you will indeed see the white light, so just walk towards it - yes really)

Helium is perfect, as it's obtainable at any party supply shop, plus the properties of helium make it easy to use.

It is preferable to take the decision to end one's life before getting to the stage of needing assistance, because anyone assisting you can, and on current evidence will, be prosecuted by the law of the land. Also, since exit bags are not readily available for purchase, where do you get one?

Strangely enough, the ideal bag for a DIY exit bag is probably already in your home - a tie-top rubbish bag.

The only other thing that is needed is a short length of flexible hose - one which will fit the nozzle of the helium tank.

First of all, fold the top of the rubbish bag twice to ensure no gaps are left at the bottom of the bag.

Then make a connection for the hose, using parcel tape or masking tape. There is no issue of pressure, as the bag is never under more than air pressure.
When needed, the helium is attached to the hose, then the bag fitted over the head and tied tight. As this is not necessarily an easy thing to do, simple practice is sensible.

Expel as much breath as possible before fitting the bag, and start filling with helium immediately. You won't even know you're breathing helium - the human body ignores it, and the person will feel pretty much like they're breathing in ordinary air. (Helium is used by deep divers who must have oxygen without CO2, although they do have oxygen mixed with theirs!)

>> No.8523842

>>8523834
Once the bag is filled, but not under pressure, turn the helium off and keep breathing normally.

The ideal position is reclined in a comfortable place, but there are a couple of other issues that need to be dealt with.

Dying can be a messy business and it is quite normal for people to void their bladder and/or bowels immediately after death. This isn't nice for loved ones to deal with, so some sensible precautions are advised.

If adult diapers are not available, make use of towels and plastic sheeting as needed to ensure no mess is left on the bed/couch.

If it is too late to do without assistance, and do need some small amount of help, there are a couple of ways helpers can be made safe from prosecution.

Making sure any helper wears a pair of gloves and then wraps YOUR hands around any items touched. No doctor/pathologist or coroner is going to be able to deliver any verdict other than suicide then. Writing a short letter is also good evidence to present to the coroner.

Rightly or wrongly, the police have shown a determination to prosecute those who assist in suicide, which is the legal status of euthanasia in New Zealand and the courts have shown that they indeed issue prison sentences for the "crime".

I never asked you to make an argument, I asked you to read my cite. Alternatively you could accept the cite without reading it, or argue against the point without reading the cite.

The IPCC reports (specifically WG1, "The Physical Science Basis") is a summery of the physical evidence supporting the theory of AGW.

So you accept that humans are the main source of net increase in greenhouse gasses, and you accept that greenhouse gasses are the main source of radiative forcing. Good, so you admit that humans are the main source of global warming. Thank you for conceding the argument.

And if you want the actual numbers, I already posted a graph from AR5 showing the radiative forcing measurement. This shows that the radiative forcing from CO2 alone is equivalent to the net radiative forcing. In other words, CO2 emissions are responsible for 100% of the observed warming trend. If we take into account the other greenhouse gasses, humans are responsible for about 120% of the warming observed. All of this is in the AR4 and AR5 reports and is widely available information.

>nice false dichotomy...

How so?

>There has been no warming since 1995
Even though this is cherrypicking the 1995 El Nino it still turns out to be ridiculously false. Hilarious.

>Do you know how they got their confidence measurements? Do you know how they measured radiative forcing measurement?
The IPCC doesn't measure anything, it presents already published research. The sources and methodology are discussed in the reports.

>do you even know what radiative forcing is
Radiative forcing is the difference in incoming solar radiation and outgoing infrared radiation due to a particular source. This can be indirectly measured in a variety of ways. Measuring the RF of greenhouse gasses is convenient because we can directly measure the amount of infrared radiation from each gas being sent back towards the earth via spectroscopy.

No, enlighten me.

Actually no. If you look at the trend, there is clearly warming. This is just for satellite data.

Sea level rise, which is underestimated by the models, actually indicates that a large portion of the heat went into the oceans. Heat causes the oceans to expand, thus causing a rise in the sea level.

Surface temperatures also indicate an increase.

There's a basic overview here:

The original paper talks about error estimation from page 22 one:

The updated methodology and discussion is in here:

All you did was show that you don't understand how arguments work. You could argue against my points and my source, instead you simultaneously claim they don't exist, you won't read them, and you agree with them. The only thing you have not done is make an argument.

>These refute your source, two of them mentioning IPCC report and its findings directly

First let me just point out this is a predatory, fake peer-review journal. The article is a mess of denier memes, unsourced images of charts, and citations of blogposts. It's honestly delusional to compare this garbage to the AR5, let alone claim that it "refutes" it. Now let's get to the meat. This doesn't even come close to refuting any of the points I made or even AGW. It claims that extreme weather trends are not increasing, but does not show that any of the trends it gives are statistically significant. Nor can we determine statistical significance, because it's sole source of evidence is a bunch of uncited graphs.

Continued
It's a fairly common denier meme to claim that extreme weather is not increasing. The trick here of course is that extreme weather is by definition rare. Trends in extreme weather are notoriously hard to measure. The trends are not statistically significant, because we have not been measuring them for long enough. Deniers take advantage of this and ignore statistical significance in order to claim the increasing trend is missing. The rest of the article is just rehashing the conspiracy logic surrounding homogenization, which is just statistically legitimate corrections to data that deniers love to hate because they can claim it is the source of warming in the data. But unfortunately for them, homogenization has been both theoretically and empirically validated:

https://judithcurry.com/2014/07/07/understanding-adjustments-to-temperature-data/

See pic. It has very little effect on the trend.

Another fake journal. Another crank author. This time denying the greenhouse effect. Really, no time is worth being spent on this. It's just utter pseudoscience.

>http://file.scirp.org/Html/7-2801173_63199.htm
Three fake journals in a row! You win the big prize of everyone laughing at your shitty sources! This one bases it's analysis on another paper published in the same turdpile of a journal which, get this, measures the correlation between CO2 and temperature over periods of months to a year and then concludes there is no correlation. This paper then goes on to extrapolate from that cherrypicked non-sequitur a bunch of nonsense that of course ignores the greenhouse effect exists and ignores that solar radiation has not increased. Yes, he argues that Earth's magnetic field allows more solar radiation into the atmosphere and that this is the source of warming, but there is no correlation between solar radiation and the warming trend to begin with. Brilliant.

It has to more with the unbearable heat + famines and droughts. That will definitely increase the number of migrants from those areas. Same goes for south America.

Note also that Trump said he would be willing to shoot down Russian planes "if diplomacy fails"

>Is an arms race equivalent to World War Three?

Looks like an internationally enforced no fly zone that would be negotiated and approved by Russia before it could happen. Zero chance of WW3. You're incredibly stupid if you think that Russia's going to fuck with US + NATO.

Denialists are strange. They're completely impervious to facts, unless the solutions align with their political beliefs.

There was a study done on the acceptance of AGW and they found that Republicans were more likely to accept AGW when they were presented with the free market and deregulation as solutions, rather than government intervention.

Democrats, however, didn't give a shit either way, they were fine both with deregulation or intervention as a means to solve the problem. It didn't change their likelihood of accepting AGW.

So for Republicans, whether they accept it or not hinges almost entirely on ideology.

I don't quite get this. I don't think climate change is a myth or anything, but how exactly would it its effects be realized in one dramatic event rather than things generally becoming somewhat crappier, and if it is gradual how the fuck will things gradually becoming crappier (while being at least slightly counterbalanced by advances in other areas, mind you) result in "societal collapse"?

see the thing is you're not the guy who can make a choice to throw the bowling ball or not; you're some other guy who can make a choice to point a gun at your own family to force them to not drop the bowling ball, but by doing so resign themselves to a live of poverty. moreover, the top of the building is like a fucking billion stories above the ground so it will take a few decades for the bowling ball to land anyway. oh, and they've already dropped like fifty of the bowling balls. at that point, instead of pointing the gun at them, why not resign yourself to knowing that the balls are going to be dropped and instead try to both get people to move out of the way and get the balls out of the air before they hit the ground?

I'm pretty sure those graphs are bullshit, but in this case it doesn't even matter.
Showing that data has been adjusted isn't the same as showing that it's being dishonestly manipulated. If you want to do that, you're actually going to need to read through the methodology described in the associated papers, and point to where they went wrong. "Look how much this changed" isn't evidence of wrongdoing, it's evidence that climatologists are doing their jobs.

It's Steve McIntyre, getting mad about being called up using shitty, cherry-picked graphs. There's a shitload of words, but he completely fails to argue against ANY of Gavin's criticisms:
http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2016/05/comparing-models-to-the-satellite-datasets

>Choice of baseline,
Gavin's criticism around the baseline centers on using anomalous years:
>Given the internal variability of the system, baselines to short periods (a year or two or three) cause larger spreads away from the calibration period. Picking a period that was anomalously warm in the observations pushes those lines down relative to the models exaggerating the difference later in time.
But McIntyre responds be claiming that the trends aren't affected, complete with cute zero-noise trend graphs. He ignores the actual argument that noise matters with short baselines.

>Inconsistent smoothing,
Not addressed at all.

>Model spread
Not addressed at all.

>Structural uncertainty in the observations
Gavin even says "This is the big one".
Not addressed at all.

Not impressed.

>About John Cook
>Skeptical Science was created and maintained by John Cook, the Climate Communication Fellow for the Global Change Institute at the University of Queensland. He originally obtained a Bachelor of Science at the University of Queensland, achieving First Class Honours with a major in physics.

>He co-authored the 2011 book Climate Change Denial: Heads in the Sand with Haydn Washington, and the 2013 college textbook Climate Change Science: A Modern Synthesis with Tom Farmer. He also lead-authored the paper Quantifying the Consensus on anthropogenic global warming in the scientific literature, which was tweeted by President Obama and was awarded the best paper published in Environmental Research Letters in 2013. In 2014, he won an award for Best Australian Science Writing, published by the University of New South Wales.

Also, people generally aren't citing John Cook's own research, they're referring to him because he writes legible summaries of other's research. If you want to argue details, he's pretty good at listing the papers he uses on each page.

First of all, I'm pretty sure we've been through this argument before; I'm yet to even see a credible source for the $100B figure.
