We are currently in an interglacial cycle. We have been for the past 22,000 years and the earth has been warming for the past 22,000 years. Our present temperature is still well below the peak temperatures of the previous interglacial cycles which means we are still in the normal range of temperatures for an interglacial cycle. Let that sink in.
When it comes to carbon emissions we aren’t the problem. Our emissions could go to zero to overnight and the rest of the world would replace them in 5 short years. Let that sink in.
The world we live in today is considered an icehouse world and is geologically speaking rare. The conditions which led to it are still present today; atmospheric CO2 ~400 ppm and polars regions isolated from warm marine currents. We are presently in an interglacial cycle and our temperatures are still well below the peak temperatures of previous interglacial cycles which means we are still in the normal range of the past 400,000 years.
We know from proxies for atmospheric CO2 and temperature that CO2 does not drive climate change, it reinforces climate change.
The IPCC B1 projections are actually a pretty representative projection for what we can expect which is a continuation of the warming of the past 22,000 years. Unfortunately, nut jobs have latched onto the IPCC’s unrealistic projections for increases of carbon emissions beyond the well established trend of the past 14 years and they pile on temperature increases from unsubstantiated feedback which in reality work towards equilibrating the earth’s climate rather than adding to its temperature.
So let me ask you this question, what do you think atmospheric CO2 levels will be in the year 2100?
Ummm....the science isnt transcending anywhere outside the field of science. Governments remain unimpressed with the science.....after 20 years of climate crusaders standing proudly in front of billboards taking bows, renewable energy remains a fringe joke!
