Where are all the climate change Tards? Has their funding run out?

Do I need to call them?

There is a good little Tardie.

Once again we see that CO2 is implicated in global warming.

Hey comrade, the earth has had 10X the levels of CO2 in the past and did not reach a point of no return as you and that snake oil salesman Al Gore claim. Did you overlook ""To some extent, our findings demonstrate that whatever happens to Earth, she will recover, and recover at a rapid pace," Bao said. "Mother Earth lived and life carried on even in the most devastating situation."

What part of self limiting system do you not understand?

Didn't realize that the Snowball Earth claim was so controversial. The Cambrian explosion of animal life forms followed closely on the Earth's re-warming. I'd read elsewhere that a random yet large episode of vulcanism was believed to have introduced gasses (CO2, CH4, etc) into the atmosphere that jump started the re-warming. What's most puzzling to me is why the much earlier Earth a few billion years ago didn't completely freeze over given the faint early sun conundrum. Doubly so for early "warm, wet" Mars.

The "point of no return" as you call it was not indeed reached. The earth will always recover. Why do you find that an illuminating observation - it is intuitively true. POINT is the "point of no return" for the Earth is rather different to that of us humans inhabiting it, and polluting it. Do try and put aside your hatred of climate science orthodoxy and distinguish the Earth from current life upon it and influencing its evolution.

Because it was still hot from its evolution process?

"Do try and put aside your hatred of climate science orthodoxy and distinguish the Earth from current life upon it and influencing its evolution."

When the climate "scientists" display the same amount of rigor as say physicists I will respect their findings. Until then I will give them as much credence as the politicians that are their benefactors.

I would say sort of. There is evidence I've seen (not going to look it up lol too lazy) that suggests there was a lot of vulcaism going on, thereby continually pumping CO2, methane and other gases into the atmosphere, thereby creating a strong greenhouse effect. Once life got going and the oceans absorbed especially the CO2, the "blanket" disappeared, thus allowing a period of extreme glaciation.

Until then I will give them as much credence as the politicians that are their benefactors.

Yep, as usual, it's a conspiracy! :rolleyes

I have a similar amount of credence for your opinions. And mere opinions they are.

That "life carried on" simply means the planet was not totally sterilized. It does not mean that life as we know it, or as it was known, would carry on. Quite the contrary actually.

In regard to the "faint young sun" paradox, see articles in "Science" about the effect of big amounts of molecular hydrogen -not usually a greenhouse gas, but under the specific conditions of the time a normally non-greenhouse gas can actually act as a greenhouse gas.

The sun converts hydrogen into helium. Helium is a greenhouse gas for the sun.
In 4.6 Billion years the sun has increased it's temperature 20%.
The planet responded by sequestering carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere thus keeping the planet cool.
This no longer works. We are down to the last 4%.
And then along comes the Lucky Strike cowboy (Getting a bit chubby, are we?) and releases the Carbon back into the atmosphere.

Please tell me I am from a different planet. I cannot possibly be related to these apes.

I never have any luck finding these sites when I type them so refer to Octave Levenspiel and Thomas J Fitzgerald and DONALD PETTIT.

I ask myself that very question all the time!!

It is indeed climate change. With CO2 as the actuator. However, that point is currently only relevant to the human POV of survival.
Notice how the time frames for each "era" grows shorter? Yet, somehow, the related "fauna" seems to be more energetic with each age. We are approaching a new "era". Earth is about to hit it's "Phi"ve transition point. Can't wait...;-)
