It's a documentary made by Channel 4 about Global Warming. Over an
hour long (but judging from a sample I've already seen, it might be
worth it). http://www.channel4.com/science/micr...dle/index.html
#v+
Channel 4, Thursday 8 March, 9pm
Are you green? How many flights have you taken in the last year?
Feeling guilty about all those unnecessary car journeys? Well, maybe
there's no need to feel bad.
According to a group of scientists brought together by
documentary-maker Martin Durkin, if the planet is heating up, it isn't
your fault and there's nothing you can do about it.
We've almost begun to take it for granted that climate change is a
man-made phenomenon. But just as the environmental lobby think they've
got our attention, a group of naysayers have emerged to slay the whole
premise of global warming.

For me, it's just a TV show, which means that one should always expect
that it was somehow tweaked to look more news-worthy.

Maybe. Could they fabricate some facts? Troposphere isn't communist,
so it should warm up faster than the surface of Earth if greenhouse
gases based warming hypothesis is true. For me that would be the most
important piece of info from this show (I was not aware of it before).
If Global Warming is dependant on CO2, troposphere should warm up
quicker than the surface. It doesn't. They also bring up the series
of arguments against man made Global Warming of which I was aware
before, and which aren't known by the general public.
The show is obviously controversial, as it should be expected, but I
also doubt that there is no truth to most of the controversies. I expect
them to be exaggerated, but I don't expect them to be totally without
substance.
Regarding your link - these articles definitely aren't unbiased. They
never mention any data which TV show brings. They attack the author
personally, and try to discredit him (arguments ad personam are typical
sophistic tricks). They never say he was wrong!
Regarding Wunsch - how would you feel when a show you took part in
practically stated that you were using fear to get money from the
taxpayers? What Wunsch said, he said himself. There is not so much
context to be lost when a person says what he said (If I remember
correctly, he said that warmed up Ocean releases CO2 in large
quantities, that it may take a very long time before an Ocean will
react to changes, so what you see now could happen decades ago, and
that you may not get published if your prediction isn't at least a
little bit scary.) I believe he said what he thinks, but he wasn't
aware that this TV show will attack science, so now he regrets it.
The show is biased, but what Wunsch said, he said himself.

What bugs me about this stuff is they always blame the average joe.
If you take a look at how wasteful corporations and wealthy indviduals
are the average joe looks tiny in comparisons. They complain to us
the general public while they continue to fly around in helipcopors
and ride in limosines. Not to mention power up their 85 bedroom
houses. |

Indeed. This is one of the things that makes the story so entertaining -
both sides are crazies!
I really don't know if this whole LM Group thing is true, a conspiracy
theory, a misunderstanding, or what. The evidence is all very
circumstantial and hearsayish, but it would be so easy for the accused to
show it was all hogwash if it was that the fact that they haven't makes me
think it's not. Anyway, quite a bit of their output is good stuff, so i
can't complain too much.

Should it? I have to confess to not having come across this idea before -

It looks like I was. I didn't remember how it went, so I checked out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Atmosphere.png
It looks like troposphere is the lowest part of an atmospheric onion.
It could be Adam who planted a flag there. I assume that they must meant
some higher parts of troposphere, not simply air between surface and
tropopause.

I didn't google for anything more specific than a TV show, so I'll
simply render my understanding here, which can obviously be off here or
there. The basic principle of greenhouse gases effect is that they
disperse some amount of heat reflected from the surface, and reflect it
back. It looks like every model predicts that the higher parts of
atmosphere should warm up quicker than the surface (everywhere, except
polar regions). Data collected by satellites and weather balloons
rather show that it is the other way around. Surface of Earth warms up
quicker than higher up in atmosphere. The collected data were told to
be solid (two independent methods) and clearly not in accordance with CO2
based warming.
Here are the arguments used in the show. http://www.channel4.com/science/micr...arguments.html

They are trying to shove those special energy saving lamps down are throat.
If a plane flyes 2000 miles, he will exhaust about the equivelant that

Nuclear fusion is the future. There will an energy surplus, and no exhaust.
There are also people around here that complain about big TVs, 40 inch and

Pete, when Shute says "they" and mentions 85-bedroom houses, I picture
his aforementioned "wasteful corporations and wealthy indviduals" and
not "the muslims."
When it comes to greed and waste, well there's no, absolutely no "kill
all" ever going to take place. Furthermore (don't that sound fancy?),
furthermore, I don't believe that "wealthy" automatically equals
"wasteful," but certainly the contradictions and hypocritical examples
offered up in the news can be somewhat crazymaking.
Some sanity would be a nice occurrence, but that seems kinda doubtful
as well.

Oh, i know, i know!

I think its hilarious when people who are part of the Government complain
about the purchase of big TVs and then are driven home in 8 or 12 cilinder
cars. Hilarious.

Global warming is a minor issue. We have other problems. By focussing on
global warming, we are led to believe there arent any other problems. My
dear friends are slowly taking over Europe. And Asia.
We can stop them. Still. We shouldnt wait to long, though. I am not kidding.
I have been doing a lot of reading the last 6 months.

I bet that Bin Laden thinks the same, just the other way around. And

Last 6 months didn't look like the best time of your life. Don't get

I've met some survivalist type of people in Russian Far East - the
ONLY thing they talk about is how they're going to live in taiga once
the Chinese take over (think of 21 century Genghis Khan kind of a
deal). They structure their lifes around preparations for that, like
building houses with stored food and stuff in the remote forest.
Traditionally, there have been many Koreans in that area, but those
are heavily russified. Once the USSR broke down, lots of Nothern
Chinese started to come to that area, some on legal visas, some not.
And there you have it! |

True dat. Most electricity is used by industry, ISTR, and one of the
biggest contributors to CO2 output, after burning fossil fuels, is making
concrete, which is something not many people do at home.
OTOH, by far the biggest use of fossil fuels is powering cars. The single
most effective thing we could do to reduce fossil fuel use to would be to
ban any car that's not maximally efficient (within 10% of the best
performer, for example - say a final farewell to the US motor industry!),
whack massive taxes on fuel, and use the proceeds to put high-quality
public transport in place wherever it's missing. Oh, and a similarly
swingeing tax on jet fuel, with the proceeds going to building a
high-speed rail network and as many dams and reactors as it takes to power
it.

I think we need to go back to rail and build a good cross country one.
They should be using this for both freight and passengers. Driving
trucks from coast to coast is very wasteful. We do need a better
public transportation in place and people need to stop buying gas
guzzling cars like SUVs. On the other hand most of these modern fuel
efficient cars are about the same as my 84 accord used to get. There
haven't been fuel efficiency improvements on cars in 27 years. |

Laika was NOT a communist dog!!
Laika was an underground freedom fighter who helped many freedom loving dogs
escape to the West. She was betrayed by an double agent feline and sentenced
to death. In a last heroic act, she changed places with the dog originally
intended for the one way space trip, and died in space after four days in
orbit , when Sputnik 2 overheated.
The troposhere belongs to freedom loving capitalists!!

Hrmmmm. I don't think so.
Muhammad Ali, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Hakeem Olajuwon, Dave Chappelle,
and for the Oly lifters - Hossein Reza Zadeh. I suspect there are no
cave dwellers there!

Can't verify that either. I've never had occasion to get behind a
burqa. Still, correct me if I'm wrong, Muslim is a religion and
therefore does not automatically alter a person's physique or facial
appearance, right? Although the no alcohol, etc. might actually be a
boon to beauty?
Regardless, It's a faith. It's not getting hit in the chops with a
brick. And, certainly, not all Middle Eastern women are created equal.

Are they procrating like rabbits while living on welfare?
Are they also trying to shove down the morals and values they have to the
other natives?

Exceptions more or less confirm the rule, and are therefore allowed.

Even if we did, we have other issues.
I wonder what a few millions of megaton from a hydrogen bomb will do to our
climate.
We can also fuck those guys bigtime by letting one explode severeal miles
deep in the sea, and cause a Tsunami. That way, it might look as just
another disaster of nature. Just thinking out loud..

Last 2 were a bit grueling at times. Extremely tired is pretty fucked, but
tired AND anxious is even worse.

Well... what i read actually more or less confirmed what i suspected in the

I always trust your insight.
But i really think you should do some reading.
In Germany, a muslim guy was given a low penalty for physically abusing his
wife, because the judge, a woman and i suspect a left winger, said that in
those cultures, dictated by islam, its not a fellony to beat up your wife.
Or to kill homosexuals.
History teachers around here sometimes skip the holocaust, because they
afraid to get physically abused.
Nice people eh? Islam is the religion of peace...
And the nuclear program in Iran is also only to be used for peaceful
purposes. Ask the Israelians.

The majority of muslim women live in the Middle East, and they have the
tendency tro be a bit hairy. Afghan women have more bodyhair then you and me
together.
Like i said in the other post, a lot of Arabic women are very pretty.
> Regardless, It's a faith.
No, its not only a faith. Its also a culture. When a faith dictate more or
less just about everything you do in your live, its a culture. And a way of
live. The sharia is part of the koran.

Definitely not. Prettiest women in Berlin were Turkish, and Polish, of
course.

No, but we do that to Americans. Minus procreation, but the rest more
or less can be said about any immigrants. They start from scratch,
so they have nothing, and if they can get some welfare, they will.

If Iran will have nukes, Israel will have some too. And we will have peace,
because even dictators don't start a war if they risk being a victim of one
themselves.
