Feb 5, 2019 at 20:54 comment added JoseOrtiz3 You need to cite your sources when you invoke things like "I read somewhere...". I clicked your link to some website called warmingscaretactics.com, and the link resulted in an IP-Address-not-found error message, meaning the server hosting your URL is no longer running. In particular, given that you are posting on skeptics, your sources should be considerably strong, in other words referencing actual publications, especially peer-reviewed and scientific ones, and minimally sources that actually exist. Consider improving your literature standards.

Feb 8, 2015 at 4:35 comment added vartec @AndrewGrimm: Asking if CO2 is the cause and asking if GW is anthropogenic are completely different questions. There are other gases that are beyond doubt man-made and per same amount of gas, have tens of thousands times more greenhouse potential. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global-warming_potential#Values So this question is basically about demonstrating that there is so little of them, that they don't have significant effect on GW.

Sep 12, 2013 at 9:53 comment added Mark Are you seriously saying that no positive feedback has ever been established outside climate science budgeting? Or just a humorous note?
Sep 12, 2013 at 8:39 comment added jwenting @Mark actually, no positive feedback has ever been established except in climate science except the one between alarmism and budgets.

Jun 5, 2013 at 2:15 comment added Mark True jwenting, though, of course, the net positive feedbacks have actually been measured through paleoclimate data, whereas the net negative feedback is based on wishful thinking.
Jun 4, 2013 at 5:58 comment added jwenting OR it's possible that there is no positive feedback at all, and that an increase in one causes through some means a decline in the other, or at least creates a condition that's conducive to the other declining. Think increasing temperatures (caused by increasing CO2 or not) causing conditions in which forests and algae banks grow better, absorbing more CO2, which causes CO2 levels to decline, which results (IF the "CO2 causes global warming" adherents are correct) a decline in temperatures, flattening out the curve.
Jun 3, 2013 at 12:24 comment added Kaz Dragon Do note that you have a false dilemma. It's also possible that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases the global temperatures, AND an increase in global temperatures increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. What a nasty feedback loop that would be...
Jul 17, 2012 at 10:47 comment added matt_black It depends what you mean by cause and how far you want to trace the effects (even if you accept the consensus on warming). Higher CO2 doesn't directly account for the majority of projected warming in models: most warming comes from other forcing effects such as higher water concentrations and other feedbacks. So even in standard climate models it isn't the CO2 that directly causes the warming.
