NASA says global warming due to CO2 bunk

[RSorak 71Westy]

In short, the central premise of alarmist global warming theory is that carbon dioxide emissions should be directly and indirectly trapping a certain amount of heat in the earth's atmosphere and preventing it from escaping into space. Real-world measurements, however, show far less heat is being trapped in the earth's atmosphere than the alarmist computer models predict, and far more heat is escaping into space than the alarmist computer models predict.

Thanks for sharing. It will be interesting to see what happens or if it changes anything.

We aren't hurting the planet then! Party on, dudes!

An article by the Heartland Institute -Free Market Solutions- James Taylor, who also wrote "God Wants You To Fight Global Warming" and "UN Considers Global Warming Military Force" with other articles nearby about those "damning emails" stolen from the IPCC report of years ago, is not where I seek my information.

I cannot find a reference to the author, Dr. Roy Spencer, a principal research scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and U.S. Science Team Leader for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer flying on NASA's Aqua satellite at the International Journal of Remote Sensing.

I didnt research the source of this, but I know see its not from a reputable source.

Dr. Roy Spencer is one of the intelligent design folks.

Dr. Roy Spencer has also signed onto the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation's "An Evangelical Declaration on Global Warming".

The declaration states: "We believe Earth and its ecosystems — created by God’s intelligent design and infinite power and sustained by His faithful providence — are robust, resilient, self-regulating, and self-correcting, admirably suited for human flourishing, and displaying His glory. Earth's climate system is no exception."

Most organizations that support his work are financed by large energy corporations.

Dr. Roy Spencer is not credible in my book.

a previous article on a similar subject by the same two authors, plus two others John R. Christy Earth System Science Center, University of Alabama in Huntsville, and Justin Hnilo, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, has been peer reviewed by the following scientists- are they too unreliable?

Presentation is a tad obtuse. Quite a wade of citations difficult to sort out. Are you suggesting these are the credentialed folks that signed on to the study to back the "peer reviewed" bona-fides?

When you guys determine culpability, can someone private message me? I gotta lot of partying to do and this climate change stuff is a total buzzkill, dude.
