I think he's discovered some secret formula for the democrat voters attention span.

In 10 years you will see CNN, ABC and all these other nutcase organizations finally talk about the green bullshit that he and republicans did 10 years ago when Obama first started this shit.

That's the joke the example makes. They will listen to hundreds of green energy experts but not one fucking electrical engineer lol. I wish I could say it was intentional though, I really do. It's just that there are too many actually people out there who believe in it for it to be intentional and too many people who don't even know hoe electricity works.
It's worked it's way from being a meme in the 90's to just "settled science" in the course of 30 years and all it took was posting a meme graph that never actually correlated an inert gas with temperature.

I've heard this meme too much about this completely unknown substance we extract miles out of the crust.

Why are you lying? There are many many many studies on the greenhouse effect, including one in the post you're replying to which gives observational evidence for CO2 being the cause of warming.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_effect

Only someone completely ignorant of climate science could make such a claim honestly.

>There are vague theories at best.
No, there are very specific models based on over a hundred years of studying the climate. We can directly observe via spectroscopy the heat being radiated by CO2 in the atmosphere.

>And the last time co2 was rich in the atmosphere we had the largest fauna and flora to date.
The issue is not simply the level of CO2, it's the rate of change. We are releasing CO2 that took millions of years to accumulate in only a few hundred years. Such rapid changes are associated with mass extinctions in the past, not flourishing. Species that flourished in high CO2 environments had millions of years to evolve for that climate. We are not evolved for that climate.

Nice reading comprehension.

>Prof. Barron-Gafford et al. focused on dry areas like the American Southwest, where water for crops is limiting and things are projected to get drier.

And the paper itself:

"We established the Biosphere 2 Agrivoltaics Learning Lab in August 2016. The site is operated
338 by the University of Arizona, and is situated on the ground of the Biosphere 2 research center
339 north of Tucson, Arizona, USA (32.578989°N, 110.851103°W; elevation: 1381 m ASL). The
340 climate in Tucson is a hot desert (Koppen Bwh) that experiences a mean annual temperature of
341 21.6°C and is characterized as having bimodal precipitation with a summer monsoon and winter
342 rains. Average precipitation is limited to less than 30 cm, but the magnitude and timing of storms
has increasingly varied in recent decades80 343 ."

>Barron-Gafford found that not only do solar panels cool the air during the day, but they also warm the air at night — a benefit for tomatoes and other crops in desert climates like Central California and Arizona where temperatures can plummet after dark.

I don't know what an "ice age cycle" is. At first I thought you must be referring to the cycle of ice ages and hothouse climates, but ice cores don't show that because ice cores only exist during ice ages. So you must be referring to the cycle of glacial and interglacial periods within the current ice age. Well you're wrong, current warming is the exact opposite of that cycle, since interglacial warming ended 10000 years ago. So we should be slowly coming now according to the natural cycle, but instead we are warming about 25 times faster than the last interglacial warming. So please explain why you're making false statements. Do you just have no clue what you're talking about?
