I have a Bachelor os Science degree from New Mexico State University, majoring in PHYSICS. I don't need it for this. The freezing point of water is 32 degress Farenheit. That is ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SCIENCE.
You say you know that? Well, "blobal warming" pirests appear not to know it, or to be attempting "1984" style DECEPTION (Big Lie), or borth.
The point is that it is all about TERMPERATURE. The ice cap on Antarctica does not melt because Al Gore says it will melt. The TERMPERATURE has to RISE (a LOT). This talk about "climeate change" is a deliberate fraud. Ice does NOT melt because of greenhouse gas emissions. Physics does not tell us that, and there is NO theory that says that. Ice melts if the TEMPERATURE reaches 32 degrees Farenheit, and in NO other cirucstance (as adjusted for pressure). Greenhouse gases matter ONLY so long as they SUSTANTIALLY increase the TEMPERATURE of Antarctica, and other critical areas of the Earth. "Climate change is a POLITICAL term, and NOT a "scientific" term. There is NO theory of "climate change". What you have is a "theory" (ofr sorts--reallymore a computer model HYPOTHESIS not supproted by any theory of phsyxics explaining the way the Earth's atmosphere works).
You say that "gloabal warming" advocates knowt he freezing point of water? No, they don't, or otherwise they would not have changed their POLITICAL cause to CLIMATE CHANGE. There is NO theory of CLIMATE. There is only this "theory" that greenhouse gases increase the temperature of the Earth.
Problem: It is NOT happening. The Earth is NO LONGER WARMING. Since 1998, or 2001, depending on which data you use, the Earth HAS NOT WARMED. However, greenhouse gases have increased. So much for that hypothesis.
Of course, the United States has shown NO warmng trend since 1880 (something which leftist Democrats and the mainstream media never tell ou, but which Michael Crichton conclusively showed in his eco-thriller, with footnotes and a bibliography, "State of Fear"). 1936 remains the WARMEST year, of crecord, in the United States since 1880 (in a virtual tie with 2006). The United States has COOLED since 1936, and since 2006. Temperatures in the Uninted States have gone up and down since 1880, with NO TREND. If you have heard otherwise, it is a LIE (something "global warming" priests, like Al Gore, do consisttently). It all depends on when you START measuring (1936, for exmple), and when you stop. Even worldwide, where the worldd seems to have warmed from 1970 to 1998-2001, there is NO correlation between greenhouse gase levels and the temperature over the entrie last century. In fact, the world COOLED (see charts in Crichton's bok again) from 1940 to 1970, as greenhouse gases INCREASED.
Remember again, this is all about TEMPERATURE. Without warming TEMPERATURES< there is NO THEORY. NONE. It is a sham, a lie and a fraud (any larger reference to a "theory" of "climate change", which does not exist).
How do I know that "Global warming" advocates want to ignore the freezing point of water? Easy. Because they want to ignore the TEMPERATURE in Antartica, and at the north pole. This is a matter of elementarary physics. If the TEMPERATURE is not RISING, then those areas are NOT WARMING. We can measure the temperature on Mars. Are you telling me that we cannot measure the temperature in varous areas of Antartica, and in various areas of the arctic? Yet, you don't get this information from "global warming" advocates, for good reason. The TEMPERATURE of the world (although there is no one "temperature") is not rising. "Global warming" predictions have been WRONG--consistently wrong. That is what is so absurd about changing the name, for political reasons,, to "climate change". "Global warming" advocats have not even ATTEMPTER specific predictions on climate, because thye know they have no way of predicting the climate--whether for next month or for 20 years from now. They have not even been able to predict the TERMPERATURE.
What have "global warming" advocates been doing, other than measuring and reporting the only thing that matters (for their "theory"): TEMPERATURE. Antarctica does NOT melt, as a matter of simple physics, unless the TEMPERATURE rises to the freezing point of water (albeit there can, of course, be localized "melting" as the local surface reaches the melting poinnt of water, or because of OCEAN CURRENTSD in areas exposed to the ocean).
Not being able to rely on temperature, even though that is the entire basis of their "theory", what have "global warmng" adcoates done They have talked about "melting" of the polar ice cap in the summer (WEATHER, and ocean currents), and the "melting" of areas of Greenland and the Antarctic peninsula also exposed to oceean currents and LOCAL WEATHER.
Does it matter that the polar ice cap is melting more than "usual" in the summer". ? NOPE. Does it matter that ice sheets are breaking off of Antarctica, in areas exposed to the ocean? NOPE. What matters is the TEMPREATURE over the entire regions, and the entire Earth, and whether that temperature is really rising. If that temperature is not rising, then you CANNOT have large scale melting of Antarctica. And any "melting" of the polar ice cap is necessarily due to warmn CURRENTS< which have nothing to do with greenhouse gases. Sea levels cannot "rise" unless the TEMPERATURE is rising. You can talk all you want about "melting" glaciers, and ice sheets breaking off, and it does not change that fact. That fact is ELEMNTARY PHYSICS. Water freezes at a certain temprature, and melts at theat same temperature. That temperature is both the freezing point and melting ponit of wather. The only way greenhouse gasess can possibly affect this is by raising the TEMPERATURE. If they are not raising the temperature, as they are not now doing (and have never done, bly consistent correlation), then man-made factors do NOT "explain" the climate, or any "climate change".
Yes. I am saying that all of these attempts to catelogue "melting" are USELESS (RIRIDUCLOUS might be a better word). The questin is what is happening to the TEMPERATURE. If the temperature is not warming, we have nothing to worry about. And it is not.
Now does a small rise in temperature mean much? Nopoe. It is COLD, for exampel, in Antarctica. A small rise in temperature many "melt" ice at the edges. But water still freezes at 32 degrees Fareheit () degress Centigrade). So long as the temperature of water stays below the freezing point of water (under the pressure conditions), Antarctica DOES NOT MELT. Right now, the tmeprature does not appear to be rising at all.
Why does the ocean not freeze SOLID at the North Ple, in winter, when the temperature is below the rreezing point of water? Easy (and this is why currents MATTER in "summer"). The atmospheric temperature can only lower the temperature of SURFACE water (down to a greater and greater depth, as the tmerpature gets colder). The ocean is BIG. The temperature of deeper water is not affected much by atmospheric temperature. So the ocean does NOT freeeze "solid". In fact, warm ocean currents (bring in warmer water from the larger ocean) can SUBSTANTIALLY affect the temperature of the WATER. And--I repeat--it is the temperature of the WATER that matters, in terms of the freezing point of water.
However, "global warming" "theory" proivdes NO basis for raising the temperature of the oceans, ecept the ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE. Greenhouse gased "trap" the sun's energy (the hypothesis goes, although the problem is that we do not know enough about atmospheric physics to know HOU MUCH this affects the temprature of the overall atmosphere). Ture, that will ultimately raise the temperature of the wor'ld's oceans, but ONLY if the atmosphere is WARMING.
Q.E.D. The Earth is no longer WARMING (from any cause). Therefore, "global warming" theory (that man-made greenhouse gases are a crucial factor in temperature) is FALSE. The world, of course, has warmed MUCH more than this in the past. Dinosarus once roamed the EArth, and it was very HOT. The Earth warmed for abut the same time in COOLED--30 years. From 1940-1970, the Earth Cooled. From 1970-2000, the Earth WARMED. Nowe we appear to be on the verge of cooling again. Through it all, the UNITED STATES has shown NO CONSISTENT WARMING, at all (something "global warming" "theory" does not explain, as it does nto explain the COOLING from 1940-1970).
Whenever "global warming" pariests talk, remember the freezing point/melting point of water. Unless the overall TEMPERATURE of the Earth KEEPS RISING, there is no way for the overall "melting" of ice on the Earth to increase. Yes, we might have something like a change in the magnetic field of the Earth, but that would not be "man-made". Greenhouse gases ONLY affect atmospheric TEMPERATURE, and "global warming" theory is DEAD if that TEMPERATURE does not continue to rise.
