Comments on: Excellent Videos Summarizing the Skeptic Case Available from Down Under http://www.carlineconomics.com/archives/1505 Applications of economics and science for rational public policy by Alan Carlin Tue, 02 Apr 2013 03:06:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.1 By: Jess Jones http://www.carlineconomics.com/archives/1505/comment-page-1#comment-126238 Jess Jones Sun, 23 Sep 2012 15:27:27 +0000 http://www.carlineconomics.com/?p=1505#comment-126238 I would like to extend to you personal invitation to check my feature length documentary on the “cold facts” of Global Warming entitled “The Boy Who Cried Warming,” available in full at www.theboywhocriedwarming.com. The virtual premier has been enjoyed by over 12,000 viewers due to a grassroots campaign effort of handing out flyers and emailing people just like you! We are independent filmmakers without corporate sponsorship, every view counts to us, and we would truly appreciate if you would take a look and (if you enjoy the film) encourage others to check it out. The list of websites mentioning our film growing, and we would be honored if you would join the growing list distinguished sites below: “The Boy Who Cried Warming” has enjoyed recommendations from: Watts Up With That? Examiner.com Digging in the Clay Bishop Hill Junk Science Climate Depot No Trick Zone Before it’s News Climate Change Dispatch Climate Ponderings Jammie Wearing Fools Oh What Now SCEF.org.uk Tom Nelson And the list keeps on growing… PLEASE feel free to Google the name to check out the comments, and as always, enjoy the show!

Brown Tue, 05 Jun 2012 23:16:28 +0000 http://www.carlineconomics.com/?p=1505#comment-107574 Here's the irrefutable bottom line: we live in a closed system called the biosphere. That system is at the most abstract level a heat pump. It employs solar energy to restore atmospheric balances against physico-chemical gradients (photosynthesis) and anomalous heat, water vapor and particulate distributions (weather). That heat pump is a physical system which necessarily has a physical capacity. There is ample evidence that the growth of human effluvia with increasing population and technology is challenging the "air conditioning". The question is not "If?" but "When?". There are already regions wherein human emissions challenge the local capacity of that heat pump. Houston, that hotbed of climate change denial is one such. Lacking the geographic elements that cause places like the LA Basin and Mexico City to accumulate air pollution, the three-county region surrounding Houston is the U.S. air quality non-attainment capital. The answer to "When?" seems to be "If not already, then soon." It's time you got real. Comment by Alan Carlin: It is not a closed system. The sun's radiation and magnetic fields vary and influence Earth's climate--apparently much more than with human emissions since global temperatures are strongly correlated with solar cycles and very poorly correlated with human emissions or ambient levels of human emissions.
