NASA Proves Fossil Fuels LOWER Temperatures

[JimBowie1958]

Major theories about what causes temperatures to rise have been thrown into doubt after NASA found the Earth has cooled in areas of heavy industrialisation where more trees have been lost and more fossil fuel burning takes place.
Environmentalists have long argued the burning of fossil fuels in power stations and for other uses is responsible for global warming and predicted temperature increases because of the high levels of carbon dioxide produced - which causes the global greenhouse effect.
While the findings did not dispute the effects of carbon dioxide on global warming, they found aerosols - also given off by burning fossil fuels - actually cool the local environment, at least temporarily....

Climate change shock: Burning fossil fuels 'COOLS planet', says NASA

So NASA is in effect saying, 'Though we have been wrong about fossil fuels, we are still right...'

Whatever keeps the gravy train rolling.

Boring. Another denier screed lying about what a paper said.

This means that Earth's climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide--or atmospheric carbon dioxide's capacity to affect temperature change--has been underestimated, according to the study.

That means the paper predicts more warming. Nothing in the paper says the earth has cooled anywhere.

What the paper says is that pollution aerosols have had a stronger cooling effect in the past than previously thought. Since the earth still warmed strongly even with that additional cooling factor, other factors like the CO2 must have had a bigger warming effect than previously thought, and thus they'll have a bigger effect in the future.

Wasn't that what the whole global cooling argument was in the 70s?

"There’s more land in the northern hemisphere, and land reacts quicker than the ocean does to these atmospheric changes.

"Because earlier studies do not account for what amounts to a net cooling effect for parts of the northern hemisphere, predictions for TCR and ECS have been lower than they should be."

The study found existing models for climate change had been too simplistic and did not account for these factors.


Lol, you are just a fucking clown mamut.

Agriculture has taken 58 million acres of forested lands out of the oxygen-producing carbon dioxide absorption equation and converted them to planting corn solely for the purpose of making ethanol.

Go fuck yourself.
