Global warming may heat up Earth more than expected in future, predicts scientists
Earth could get much warmer than expected in future, say scientists who have reconstructed past global warming and carbon cycle on earth 56 million years ago.
Global warming from greenhouse gas emissions depends not only on the size of the emissions, but also on the warming effect that the extra amount of gas has on the atmosphere.
“The research shows that climate sensitivity was higher during the past global, warm climate than in the current climate, said Gary Shaffer, professor at the University of Magallanes in Chile.
“This is bad news for humanity as greater climate sensitivity from warming will further amplify the warming,” said Shaffer, also a professor at the Niels Bohr Institute of the University of Copenhagen in Denmark.
Meanwhile, the use of fossil fuels is so bad that a Warmists thinks….Warmists should keep using them till they magically come up with something else
Climate change skeptics, and those who favor the continued use of fossil fuels, continually fall back on the argument that those who continue to rely on fossil fuels – that is, virtually all of us – are hypocrites for wanting to evolve away from them. They seem to be saying: “I am a hypocrite for heating with gas, and if I truly believe in the use of renewable technologies, then I should turn off the heat, cut the power and let the sun shine through my windows for heat and light.â€
Can we once and for all put that argument to rest?
(Silly argument from the Warmists here)
We will, for a time, continue to rely on combustion-based manufacturing in order to produce the very solar panels and other renewable technologies that will eventually replace combustion-based manufacturing and energy generation. How quickly that happens is up to all of us.
So, being a hypocrite is OK, because, someday something will replace fossil fuels.
“It may be worse in the future than we thought.” Of course they’d say that, because what they told us should have happened by now, hasn’t. Good plan-double down on stupid.
Here are a few AGW “predictions” usually launched amid mass hysteria:
“We have about five more years at the outside to do something.â€
• Kenneth Watt, ecologist
“Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.â€
• George Wald, Harvard Biologist
“We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation.â€
• Barry Commoner, Washington University biologist
“Man must stop pollution and conserve his resources, not merely to enhance existence but to save the race from intolerable deterioration and possible extinction.†• New York Times editorial, the day after the first Earth Day
“Population will inevitably and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make. The death rate will increase until at least 100-200 million people per year will be starving to death during the next ten years.â€
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist
“By…[1975] some experts feel that food shortages will have escalated the present level of world hunger and starvation into famines of unbelievable proportions. Other experts, more optimistic, think the ultimate food-population collision will not occur until the decade of the 1980s.â€
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist
“It is already too late to avoid mass starvation.â€
• Denis Hayes, chief organizer for Earth Day
“Demographers agree almost unanimously on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa. By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions….By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine.â€
• Peter Gunter, professor, North Texas State University
“Scientists have solid experimental and theoretical evidence to support…the following predictions: In a decade, urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution…by 1985 air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half….â€
• Life Magazine, January 1970
“At the present rate of nitrogen buildup, it’s only a matter of time before light will be filtered out of the atmosphere and none of our land will be usable.â€
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist
Stanford’s Paul Ehrlich announces that the sky is falling.
“Air pollution…is certainly going to take hundreds of thousands of lives in the next few years alone.â€
• Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist
“We are prospecting for the very last of our resources and using up the nonrenewable things many times faster than we are finding new ones.â€
• Martin Litton, Sierra Club director
“By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate…that there won’t be any more crude oil. You’ll drive up to the pump and say, `Fill ‘er up, buddy,’ and he’ll say, `I am very sorry, there isn’t any.’â€
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist
“Dr. S. Dillon Ripley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institute, believes that in 25 years, somewhere between 75 and 80 percent of all the species of living animals will be extinct.â€
• Sen. Gaylord Nelson
“The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.â€
• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist
OMG WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE, worse than before!!
It was predicted that adding CO2 would cause the Earth to warm. It has.

Liam solar power us mist rapidly growing in the third world countries that do not have easily available fossil fuels
For about 3-400 dollars s family can buy a system to provide the most basic power they need
Phone and computer charging, fans, lights, tv, maybe a small frig
Liam why woukd you think putting a 1st world power grid into a 3rd (or 4th) world country be any more successful than putting in a non mechanical system at point of use ?
Liam you have zero personal knowledge about people living in the third world
You sound like a fool
Go someplace live their for6 months and see for yourself
Maybe try the Philippines they speak English. Beautiful women and not expensive
See for yourself how much they hate “western” things
11 Jul 2011 – Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) have discovered previously unknown volcanoes in the ocean waters around the remote South Sandwich Islands.
Using ship-borne sea-floor mapping technology during research cruises onboard the RRS James Clark Ross, the scientists found 12 volcanoes beneath the sea surface — some up to 3km (1.86 miles) high. They found 5km (3 mile) diameter craters left by collapsing volcanoes and 7 active volcanoes visible above the sea as a chain of islands.
Speaking at the International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences in Edinburgh Dr Phil Leat from British Antarctic Survey said,
“There is so much that we don’t understand about volcanic activity beneath the sea — it’s likely that volcanoes are erupting or collapsing all the time.
This website was replete with pictures which have since been taken down. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL……OMG FOOLS shouts the AGW crowd do you wish to keep your jobs? Then rewrite your data to comply with the “WERE ALL GONNA DIE MEME!”
Teach in the USA our carbon footprint has already begun to decrease
Coal? That use decreases every year while renewables increase
The Saudi Oil Minister said ” the end of the Age of Oil is on the horizon….”
That is why the Saudis and the Gulf Sheiks are all making massive investments in solar
And NO! They aren’t getting any subsidies.
Teach even Exxon admits that burning fossil fuels causes global warming why/how can you continue to deny it?
It was, and No it hasn’t. First, the prediction was illogical to begin with. Secondly, to your comment, adding a small amount of a minor gas cannot warm the earth. The earth is warmed for the most part by solar irradiation and also by its own internal nuclear\chemical heat. A small amount of the gas you exhale cannot cause our inner molten core to heat up.
Such idiocy.
Guess he didn’t ‘tease’–manipulate the data– enough.

This is actually true.. The MARKET is compelling nations to look at alternatives.
WHY are they willing to look at wind and solar?
Basically the crash of oil prices have been devestating to many economies around the world. Brazil, Argentina, Middle Eastern Countries, Iran….etc…etc. My company was forced to leave Brazil because of the crash of oil and the work being done for that nation has literally come to a halt because of this oil price crash. The olympics are in danger of not occuring because Brazil literally no longer can afford these massive public works projects that DO NOT GENERATE INCOME FOR THE NATION…….
For months, Brazil has been struggling with its worst recession since the 1930s. The country’s economy, the largest in Latin America, shrank 5.4% in the first quarter of this year, according to government figures.
TO ALL SOCIALISTS…….T H E R E I S N O F R E E L U N C H!!!.
What is fueling the crash in oil prices? Fracking and a seriously weak world economy despite the smoke blown up our asses by the Obama Administration and Socialists the world over who cannot come to grips with the notion that Socialism/fascism/Communism does not work in a world in which everyone is connected to the internet and can at the click of the button see how the rest of the 7 billion people live.
Nations must generate income to survive…..The Saudis are not sold on Solar they just realize it is a way to stop using their OWN OIL to fuel their own energy needs.
Their whole economy is subsidized by oil, retard.

John it is quite obvious that YOU DO NOT READ MY POSTS AT ALL… YOU SIMPLY SKIM THEM AND THEN SPOUT YOUR TALKING POINTS AT ME.
So for the record let me reveal to you as I have done here before. My job carries me out of the country every year and I am usually home for the summers in the USA. I posted here last year during the summer then left for Brazil in late August and when I GO TO WORK>>>>I HAVE NO TIME TO POST ON BLOGS. So perhaps you should get a job unless of course you are retired on some CORPORATIONS RETIREMENT PLAN.
In all I have visited 41 countries around the world and spent the better part of 33 years doing so.
What interests me JOHN….is how you managed to visit PRE INVASION AFGHANISTAN in 76-77 and in 68-69 Malaysia and the Phillipines all three of which were either fighting a communist war or were being set up for an Invasion by Russia.
What sane and rational man without an agenda would do such a thing? Why would you visit war torn nations and claim that as practical experience in HOW THINGS WORK OUTSIDE OF AMERICA?
captainfish,
So many lies, so little time. The other deniosaurs have left your kind of denialism behind.
You can’t be compelled to learn and understand simple physics. You must first admit to yourself that you are ignorant.
Did you know that even before the industrial revolution, even before humans burned fossil fuels, did you know that “trace” gases in our atmosphere kept the Earth much warmer than if there was no atmosphere?
So how did “trace” gases keep the planet warm before the industrial revolution but not have no effect after?
You actually seem to understand that the Sun the warms the Earth (land and seas etc). Kudos. But do you realize that most of that absorbed heat is re-radiated back into space? And that the rate of the re-radiation back into to space is determined by the atmosphere?
Here’s some homework for you. Do a little Google research and find out for yourself what the calculated temperature for Earth would be assuming no atmosphere at all.
Are you admitting that you don’t know that infrared radiation interacts with atmospheric carbon dioxide or methane or water vapor?
That humans convert non-fossil fuels to CO2 by the controlled “burn” of our own metabolism is irrelevant. Why bring it up?
Such idiocy.
“Maybe try the Philippines they speak English. Beautiful women and not expensive”
Guess that explains your name.
We have been over this before Jeffery.
As the planet heats it produces more CO2 because even your own AGW EXPERTS understand that melting glaciers release encapsulated co2 into the air as dead plants buried by ice are allowed to aspirate CO2.
That aside. A WARMING PLANET CREATES MORE water vapor…..the amount of heat house effect water vapor has on the atmosphere is 100x’s what methane and co2 has combined.
Rising co2 by 100 PARTS PER MILLION is statistically insignificant and it is the natural process of the planets own heating that causes co2 to increase.
YES there is LITTLE DOUBT THAT BURNING FOSSIL FUELS HAS PUT MORE CO2 into the air. This is undeniable.
I agree with you 100 percent……with the caveat that 500 ppm is to be expected IF WE STOPPED EVERY AGW EVENT AROUND THE WORLD TODAY.
That is because multiple studies by AGW proponents have concluded that there is no stopping the continued rise of CO2 because that is WHAT THE EARTH DOES AS IT WARMS……
IT ASPIRATES CO2 back into the atmosphere.
Laim,
And you were wrong then, too. Do you never learn?
During the period of human existence, the past 800,000 years for certain, ice ages interspersed with warm periods such as our own current Holocene, CO2 varied between about 200 and 300 ppm. It is now 400 ppm and rising rapidly.
Is it your contention that we are in an unexplainable natural warming period that will drive the CO2 to the greatest level in millions of years?
Sigh. Let’s start at the beginning. What natural phenomena are making the Earth warm rapidly these past 100 years, allowing formerly frozen ice plants to “aspirate” CO2?
You can’t argue with wanton ignorance Liam. There is no capability or capacity or even a willingness to learn solid reality with the J boys. You can even show them studies and graphs that had CO2 thousands of times higher than it was before now, and they’ll ignore it. All they want to do is argue. THey argue about the most stupid stuff that it is pointless.
See above, they actually believe that CO2 is the primary mechanism for our earth’s warmth. That kind of argument comes from just being acrimonious.
But they are amusing when discussing things they can’t comprehehend.
So just mock the little guy and the retard and chuckle.
captainfish,
So maybe you know by what natural mechanism the Earth is now warming rapidly? By all means present your hypothesis for discussion.
One commenter here thinks it’s from undiscovered undersea volcanoes belching CO2 causing the ice to melt causing uncovered frozen plants to “aspirate” CO2.
Do you agree or do you have an alternative hypothesis?
Or do you agree with the little white puppy that mockery is an able substitute for hypotheses? Allah knows he has never presented any scientific arguments.
In fact, do any of the resident climate science experts here have a feasible “natural” explanation for why the Earth is now warming rapidly?
Anybody else only hear the sound the teachers in the Peanuts cartoon shows made whenever the J’s blather on?
capitanfish,
We’ll take that as “Capitanfish has no idea what he’s talking about, is in over his head and is crying out for support from those that also have no idea what they’re talking about and are in over their heads as well.”
We’ll leave you alone. You bore us. Just another typical right winger.
–and that little who exaggerates often keeps flailing away…
LOL. Little White Puppy is as dumb as a Republican caucus…
