Climate change?

If climate change is real how exactly are we suppose to stop it?
>muh electric cars
China and India alone will put out enough carbon dioxide to make anything the western world does pointless.To stop climate change we would have FORCE countries to stop polluting by military force.

It is impossible to prove anything to a man who has already made up his mind (you). You first need IQ of at least 110 to be able to accept you might be wrong and someone else might be right. So no wonder this board has such huge percentage of morons believing in conspiracy theories.

>It is impossible to prove anything to a man who has already made up his mind
Likewise, faggot. Instead of mindlessly believing and repeating what the clergy tells you, try thinking for yourself.

Also, it has been proven countless times. All you have to do is search in any search engine and actually read the fucking letters and charts. It also helps if you avoid blogs, youtube videos and other dumbfuck material from other internet "intelectuals" like you.

>It has been proven
>Just ignore the parts that prove it wrong
Contrary to what you might think; there isn't a scientific consensus. And as long as that's the case I'll rely on my own observations and make my own conclusions.

>conspiracy theories
water is the main greenhouse gas, 1kg of water vapor in the atmosphere = 2.000.000 J (0,5 kWh)

vapor condenses into rain = hurricanes, enormous release of energy into the atmosphere

CO2 captures very little energy, mainly as translation

and the wet atmosphere contains about 4% water vapor, but only 0,04% CO2

Oil is only being dug out where it REALLY plentiful and cheap to produce. Advancements in technology and increase in prices due to scarcity will make more countries start digging in otherwise untapped areas. The same goes for coal, but to a much greater degree.

>CO2 rising
YOU'RE BREATHING TOO MUCH YOU FILTHY GOY!

Coal is abundant enough to power the planet for some 400 years.
We're now on the verge of sustained fusion reactors.
Even if we had NONE of this and the energy were running out we could use the last we had to build orbital satellites to collect solar energy and beam it to earth as concetrated microwaves.

Energy doomers are like climate doomers:
They don't understand economics or technology

>Oil is only being dug out where it REALLY plentiful and cheap to produce
available fossil fuels predictions are made on discovered reserves, not on extracted oil

since the 60's we have discovered almost nothing

technological advancement does not help much if EROEI is < 1, if you invest more energy than you get from pumping the oil out

Pretty much, yeah. We'll see harsh energy rationing long before we'll see ourselves running out.

I've seen predictions saying "we'll run out of oil in 2000" "We'll run out of oil in 2010" "We'll run out of oil in 2020". All wrong. Norway's production is falling because of harmful regulations on the industry and because they can't compete with the penny-labour of the middle east.

I can only guess, but probably something that has its origins not on this planet. Likely something sun-related. While technically possible to origin on Earth, if all volcanoes erupted at the same time or something like that, I find it to be very unlikely compared to the likelyhood of an imbalance in the sun or other extraterrestrial influences. Maybe a combination of the two? The video game Frostpunk features a great global cooling because of the sun weakening while at the same time a lot of volcanoes erupted at the same time, further blocking the sun's rays.

Atmospheric composition was supposedly also different back in the deep past, with more Carbon dioxide and Oxygen alike, leading to lusher plant life and larger beasts. Or so the theory goes. What caused these changes too? We don't know for sure, we can only guess.

According to solar physicists, the sun brightened continually ever since its formation. That brightening was obviously an important forcing but it can't have been the single dominant factor as Earth history would in this case be one of progressive warming (which isn't the case).

If the temperature changes of the past were primarily caused by changes in the atmospheric concentration greenhouse gases, why is the geologic record brought up as if it discredits climate science in the meme image you posted?

>First paragraph
As you say, the earths history is not one of progressive warming, so doesn't that disqualify the statement that the sun burns hotter and brighter as time goes on?

>Second paragraph
First of all the geologic records show that both sudden and large changes in both atmosphere and temperature has happened multiple times before industrialization, meaning that it's not for sure at all that humans have caused whatever minor changes we see right now. Second of all it also shows that doomers who think the world will end or turn to shit because it gets warmer are completely wrong, as it has already been that warm before.

>Atmospheric composition was supposedly also different back in the deep past, with more Carbon dioxide and Oxygen alike

You don't you let CO2 rise to 800 ppm and then you better hope you get fusion. also we either wall or move our ities.

Carbon dioxide isn't even "pollution", it is plant food. When there is more C02 in the air, more plants grow: its a negative feedback. All the carbon we are emitting was once in the atmosphere anyway.

Marine housing is way past due. Be it underwater or floating. Think about it, housing and real estate is the most expensive thing there is, and this is a completely untapped market for luxury housing where one unit could sell for millions upon millions.

And that's why plastic bags make excellent toys for small children.

Also, it's a well known fact that most crop failures are caused by lack of CO2, and not water, as ((farmers)) would have you believe.

>Riddle me this: Why does water in the atmosphere capture solar energy much better than water in the seas?

liquid water has hydrogen bonds, when you apply sun radiation and destroy the hydrogen bond the freed H2O molecule has gained kinetic energy that is equivalent the energy that was stored in the hydrogen bond

so only for H2O gas you get 2.000.000 J of energy per 1kg of water vapor

add to that rotational and vibrational energy absorbed by the H-O-H bonds in the molecule

the structure of H2O, covalent bonds at an angle, can easy absorb most wavelengths in the infrared spectrum, and other gases don't have that property, pic related

>If climate change is real how exactly are we suppose to stop it?

This is why the conversation is frustrating, because nobody addresses it. The fact is, if the idea is true that we NEED to cut carbon emissions before 2030 in order to stop a disaster, then we're already fucked. That disaster, if true, isn't preventable by any retarded green deal or carbon credits. The ONLY way to prevent a scenario where the worldwide average trends downwards for the entirety of the next 12 years is a complete GLOBAL economic collapse that sees billions of people to die. That's it. Or a global nuclear war with multiple countries accepting mutually assured destruction.

Nothing else will see Co2 go on a downwards trend in the next 12 years.

Both asian and european cities are better in terms of public transport and cycling

>doesn't that disqualify the statement that the sun burns hotter and brighter as time goes on
No it doesn't because the solar brightening is based on fairly well understood and uncontroversial stellar physics

As for the rest: There several things to point out about the extreme warm intervals of the past.
Firstly, these intervals were supported by CO2 concentrations that weren't that much higher than the preindustrial Holocene. For example, in the early 2000s it was thought that the early Eocene pCO2 was about 4000ppm or more while the emerging view today is that it was only around 1000ppm. In other words, the geologic record supports the view that the climate system is very sensitive and temperatures will rise significantly in response to relatively minor increases in CO2 concentration.

Secondly, most known warm intervals were quasi-steady states that established themselves over millions of years. It's true that there are instances of abrupt changes in CO2 and temperature but these are extremely rare in the geologic record - there were only a handful during the last half billion years. What you also forgot to mention is that these are commonly associated with global-scale restructuring of the biosphere and often with the mass extinctions and the disappearance of complex ecosystems.

All of this is quite inconsistent with the view that the pressures generated by humans aren't capable of forcing an abrupt response of the Earth system.

>>If climate change is real how exactly are we suppose to stop it?
>This is why the conversation is frustrating, because nobody addresses it

a post carbon future is real, and very near, you can't stop it, only delay it

the solution is to invade Iran and other Near Eastern countries that have oil

The United Nations has openly admitted to using Muh Global Warming as a scare tactic to take wealth from productive countries and give it to shitskins while simultaneously encouraging said shitskins to migrate to the productive countries.
It's all intended to precipitate a global collapse that will leave the Rothschilds and their minions with the only reliable tradable resources - precious metals - while the rest of us are slaves under the Islamic bootheel.
Meanwhile, the actual pollution killing our planet, being churned out by India, China and even Africa, is left unchecked. These sick fucks don't care that they're going to end up killing themselves, so long as they get their magical prophecy of living like kings with legions of slaves.

It's not 12 years near. Maybe 50 years from now the world will be carbon output free. But not 12. And that's why the conversation, and everything stemming from it, is retarded. The conversation should be "Ok, these scientists say if we don't move off carbon within 12 years, we're fucked. That's not happening. So we have 12 years to prepare our countries for what it projected to happen. Lets talk about how we can do that."

>All of this is quite inconsistent with the view that the pressures generated by humans aren't capable of forcing an abrupt response of the Earth system.
humans produce about 5% of CO2 annual emissions

>temperatures will rise significantly in response to relatively minor increases in CO2 concentration

I know you're a HIGH IQ graduate of Prager U or whatever, but try and understand that 5% (and that's a made up figure) doesn't get removed each year, so it's like filling a bucket slowly.

>China put trash import banned from western countries

>but try and understand that 5% (and that's a made up figure) doesn't get removed each year
why not?

when IPPC publishes their reports do they base them on measured CO2 levels, or on such predictions that the gas will stay there forever?

>Prager U
that's ad hominem, because you got no arguments

I haven't checked the number but I guess it makes sense that the human contribution makes up about 5% of the total flux in the carbon cycle. But at note that at steady-state all fluxes out of carbon sources would be matched by fluxes into carbon sinks to keep the atmospheric carbon reservoir (approximately) constant. Adding a human contribution of 5% represents an enormous imbalance in the carbon cycle and has already caused atmospheric CO2 concentration to rise to values not seen in ~4 million years.

>what about H2O?
It's true that water vapor is a crucial greenhouse gas but, again, note that it's a condensible gas and represents a feedback internal to the climate system. In other words, water vapor is different from CO2 in that it cannot change its concentration independent of climate.

>why not?

All taxes should be lowered first to lessen the impact, but the only solution is to put an excise tax on carbon and methane that goes towards carbon capture, say $50 per ton of CO2 emitted(a gallon of gas emits 20 pounds of CO2 so that's $0.50 per gallon). This would also apply to CO2 emitted from power stations or methane from cattle ranching. Subsidies for green energy and outright bans on certain things is just socialism though, a simple tax will let the market fix the issue in the best way possible.

Times up? Looks like there's another 100 years to me. So why should I give a fuck?

We already figured out how to pull the C02 out of the air and the technology is rapidly developing. The only people who give a shit about the environment are Europeans and the same people screeching about the climate the most are also seemingly hell bent on replacing and getting rid of us and removing our ability to have any platform or power to continue even noticing the climate issues

China will eat you alive and your nation state will collapse.There will be no change to the climate.

The capture of CO2 from ambient air was commercialized in the 1950s as a pre-treatment for cryogenic air separation. In the 1960s, capture of CO2 from air was considered as a feedstock for production of hydrocarbon fuels using mobile nuclear power plants.1 In the 1990s, Klaus Lackner explored the large-scale capture of CO2 as a tool for managing climate risk,2 now commonly referred to as direct air capture (DAC).

I'm more interested in what you have to say about the points in my post

There is no steady state.This idea is so retarded.If it was a state state then CO2 wouldn´t naturally fluctuate which they did.
Within the preboreal era CO2 flucated around 50 ppm in a few decades.
So the value is above 4 million years ? Who cares.Its only shows that the current low CO2 levels are the exception and not the rule.
There is no danger form high CO2 levels.
Destroying your own economy results in a civilisation breakdown.

I know this, because it's already happened in shitlib areas like California, where the real poverty line is quadruple the rest of the country.

Then start with yourself.Jump of a cliff to stop climate change.

I would have agreed with you if you said that a perfect steady-state is probably never fully achieved. However large imbalances like the one generated by humans can't be ordinary features of the carbon cycles because (besides being inconsistent with the marine carbon isotope record) maintaining these imbalances on even short geologic timescales would have already caused Earth to irreversibly transition towards a super-hot greenhouse state - which evidently isn't the case.

For the implications of high CO2 please see

>I'm more interested in what you have to say about the points in my post

if you look at the energy content the 400ppm hold in the atmosphere from infrared absorption, + kinetic energy from temperature, it's not that much, nothing catastrophic will happen because of CO2

but it's a good larp, useful to prepare for the post carbon future

we can act as if we are saving the climate and still achieve the same result as if we where preparing for a energy scarce future
