“…if there were a lot of smoke in the atmosphere, the sun’s rays would tend to get absorbed by that smoke..”

They do absorb radiant heat, but it doesn’t stop there. They also emit those excited photons, but in random directions, sometimes back upstairs, rather continuing on down to the ground.

The end result being that the ground ends up being heated less, which heats the air above it less, etc.

So yes, there is some difference.

Add to the man-made causation theory silliness re: Global Warming…. is the RICO statute, money laundering scam with Carbon Credits.

Max D… here’s a “hook-up” for a cow methane catcher. Good luck mounting it on your buffalo.

I know this: by the end of the year, I have about 15 different training modules I must complete, in order to better understand the monitoring system we are installing on our plant for CO2 emissions. I know that by next year, we’ll be reporting out via an online system constantly being monitored what those CO2 levels will be. I also know that somebody is making a killing off of the systems and equipment, not to mention the possibilities for the monitoring agencies to impose fines on us (BAAQMD…). Oh, and what is it we make???? What is this Evil Elixer that we pollute so greedily with for profit? Hydrogen. For removal of sulfur from diesel and gasoline during the refining process. You know, to make the air “cleaner”. This is all a 3-Card Monty shell-game illusion propogated by tight-sphinctered-nut-whackers bent on making us all drive rickshaws, and wear hemp underwear.

This is all too confusing. I think we need to go back to the previous post about beer.

That made a lot more sense….

In the intersets of scientific research, I think I will have one. Or more.

Juvat’s right. The best example was when I believe a large coalition of economists stated that the cost to *possibly* control climate change was much higher than the cost of doing nothing. Thus, if the billions were dumped into nuclear research, better urban planning, and medicine, the world would be much better off.

Sadly, my favorite CO2 producer is in the shop, but I’ll be back out there fighting global cooling soon enough.
