Alberta Climate Records

CO2 may be a proven factor but it’s effect on global climate is way over exaggerated.
To believe that humans alone are causing climate change is very far from reality .
Did you watch that video ?
Yes reducing emissions is a good thing, but its being politicized and abused as a wealth transfer scheme from the wealthy middle class to others Meanwhile the billionaires and elite will carry on with massive emissions and huge carbon footprints unabated.

What percentage of the climate effects are actually truly from CO2 and / or from natural activity from the sun . When that answer is truly understood then maybe people will understand weather and climate patterns better and realize the sun is main driver by far , always has been , and it’s not a tiny percentage of our CO2 in the atmosphere.
I just think there needs to be a much more balanced look and what we can control and what is natural cycles . High levels of CO2 did not cause the great warming periods in history , it was the suns activity and volcanic activity both in warm periods and glaciated periods.
It’s being over looked in a dramatic fashion with the current CO2 blame game . And it’s about to cost us all dearly carbon tax’s will do nothing but increase living expenses from the vast majority while the extreme wealthy minority will be 100% unaffected .

The above graph compares global surface temperature changes (red line) and the Sun's energy that Earth receives (yellow line) in watts (units of energy) per square meter since 1880. The lighter/thinner lines show the yearly levels while the heavier/thicker lines show the 11-year average trends. Eleven-year averages are used to reduce the year-to-year natural noise in the data, making the underlying trends more obvious.

The amount of solar energy that Earth receives has followed the Sun’s natural 11-year cycle of small ups and downs with no net increase since the 1950s. Over the same period, global temperature has risen markedly. It is therefore extremely unlikely that the Sun has caused the observed global temperature warming trend over the past half-century.

It's reasonable to assume that changes in the Sun's energy output would cause the climate to change, since the Sun is the fundamental source of energy that drives our climate system.

Indeed, studies show that solar variability has played a role in past climate changes. For example, a decrease in solar activity coupled with an increase in volcanic activity is thought to have helped trigger the Little Ice Age between approximately 1650 and 1850, when Greenland cooled from 1410 to the 1720s and glaciers advanced in the Alps.

But several lines of evidence show that current global warming cannot be explained by changes in energy from the Sun:

Since 1750, the average amount of energy coming from the Sun either remained constant or increased slightly.

If the warming were caused by a more active Sun, then scientists would expect to see warmer temperatures in all layers of the atmosphere. Instead, they have observed a cooling in the upper atmosphere, and a warming at the surface and in the lower parts of the atmosphere. That's because greenhouse gases are trapping heat in the lower atmosphere.

Climate models that include solar irradiance changes can’t reproduce the observed temperature trend over the past century or more without including a rise in greenhouse gases.

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with BS

[chuckChuck]

So the climate scientists are all wrong? That's your only thought? LOL

[farming101]

Why do scientists go on record as saying a certain location is warming faster than anywhere else?

[chuckChuck]

Because that's what the temperature record indicates.

[TASFarms]

You know Covid is slowing up when climate change is in the news. Isn’t that the narrative. Push climate change full speed ahead after covid.

[farming101]

There cannot be 2 separate locations warming faster than the rest of the world. It is illogical

[shtferbrains]

So the climate scientists are all wrong? That's your only thought? LOL

Let's go at that as are climate scientists all right?

For sure not in IMHO.
I think that is what Les is trying to show in his example.

So now how much is right and how much is pushing the agenda? Every day some things are being attributed to climate change with very thin actual research.
For sure lots of small studies coming to the expected conclusions.

anywhere & everywhere warming twice as fast as anywhere debunked here.
