Some carbon info for Chuck Chuck

I would suggest believing what ever you want and whatever makes you happy. Don't worry about facts or evidence, they would just get in the way of your brilliant analysis and clever conspiracy theories.

Why bother discussing sciene...

So, your best rebuttal to any evidence that your favourite religious theory isn't as catastrophic as you had hoped for, is to (once again) confuse science with something that requires believing. You must be a real fun troll to be around in person, all negatives, all the time, no matter how good the news.

Just to clarify yet again, religion =belief, science =evidence.

maybe he is actually Ralph goodale or someone like that
it's been good since I gonged him
the odd one does sneak through though

I read Les Henry's article in the summer. I was kind of surprised that Henry, a well known soil scientist would be so uninformed about the negative affects of climate change, the research that shows the increasing temperatures and what causes ice ages and why ice ages end.

There is no dispute carbon is essential to life on earth and increased CO2 will benefit plant growth. But seeing an educated scientist who ignores overwhelming evidence of climate change and all the negative impacts, is mind boggling. Henry spent most of his life looking at soil, so maybe its no surprise he is not well informed on climate change.

Henry Quote:
"At meetings where I continually hear about how bad the future will be I ask two questions:

What thermometers do they average to come up with a global temperature?
Twenty thousand years ago, what is now Saskatoon was under about a mile of ice. It all melted and not a fossil fuel to be had. What force of nature resulted in that massive global warming event?

I have yet to receive an answer to those questions."

It seems like the only reason Henry doesn't have an answer to these basic questions is he doesn't believe in climate science? Or he hasn't bothered to review what causes ice ages? This information is widely available on the internet.

Thank you Charlie for pointing out that Les is a well known Scientist.

I don't think he would like being described as an academic as he enjoyed many years of touring the Sask countryside sharing information with generations of agriculturalist. Les knows many of us on a first name basis.

I don't believe I have ever heard Les described as "Uninformed".

It seems unlikely but I am guessing you have never met the man as when he makes a statement it is seldom disputed.

Maybe I underestimate your credentials.

It's not hard to run into "Henry" if your indeed a farmer. You might look for an opportunity to answer those questions in person and set him straight on the topic.

Les never stops learning always likes data.

Also on the point of Les Henry being a soil scientist.
What is David Suzuki? PhD in zoology.

But Al Gore invented the internet!

And can anyone recall what PhD Leonardo DiCaprio holds that makes him an authority on climate? Or AL Gore?

After reading this article it sure is silly to constantly hear climate alarmists repeat that cabon dioxide is an evil pollution.

The extreme activists don’t seem to collect all the data they should and seem to follow “Hollywood experts” such as DiCaprio, McCarthy, etc.
The anti-vaxxer movement seems like a similar scenario.

You wonder how someone could get their heads so screwed up that they would support ridiculous ideas? Watch this vid:

Same thing, different day, different topic.

Ozone holes healing this century and ozone layer thickening.

Two more revelations like this for scientists to publish and the intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change created by the UN and the World Meterological Organization with their insight to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees C above pre-industrial level, and the need for a carbon tax is solved. Right now, 1/3 of the carbon tax burden should be eliminated on the news that...

.5 degree C of global cooling this century is to occur by reducing by 80% the HFC's (the hydroflurocarbon chemicals) used for cooling and refrigeration.

A simple picture of climate change .....
it’s been happening for 4.5 billion years
Look at the progression of Hawaii? ....
it’s been washed over for 4.5 billion years.

[furrowtickler]

Ohhhhh , the sky is going to fall and ocean levels will wash your houses away lol

[newguy]

Looks to me that the group of old stock canadians on front page of Mcleans magazine will convince all that global warming is fake news.
