    The Global Warming Debate
    By James Hansen The only way to have real success in science ... is to describe the evidence very carefully without regard to the way you feel it should be. If you have a theory, you must try to explain what's good about it and what's bad about it equally. In science you learn a kind of standard integrity and honesty. Richard Feynman In my view, we are not doing as well as we could in the global warming debate. For one thing, we have failed to use the opportunity to help teach the public about how science research works. On the contrary, we often appear to the public to be advocates of fixed adversarial positions. Of course, we can try to blame this on the media and politicians, with their proclivities to focus on antagonistic extremes. But that doesn't really help. The fun in science is to explore a topic from all angles and figure out how something works. To do this well, a scientist learns to be open-minded, ignoring prejudices that might be imposed by religious, political or other tendencies (Galileo being a model of excellence). Indeed, science thrives on repeated challenge of any interpretation, and there is even special pleasure in trying to find something wrong with well-accepted theory. Such challenges eventually strengthen our understanding of the subject, but it is a never-ending process as answers raise more questions to be pursued in order to further refine our knowledge. Skepticism thus plays an essential role in scientific research, and, far from trying to silence skeptics, science invites their contributions. So too, the global warming debate benefits from traditional scientific skepticism.

    Global Warming: The Origin and Nature of the Alleged Scientific Consensus
    Richard S. Lindzen
    Richard S. Lindzen is the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. M To show why I assert that there is no substantive basis for predictions of sizeable global warming due to observed increases in minor greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and chlorofluorocarbons, I shall briefly review the science associated with those predictions. Summary of Scientific Issues Before even considering "greenhouse theory,'' it may be helpful to begin with the issue that is almost always taken as a giventhat carbon dioxide will inevitably increase to values double and even quadruple present values. Evidence from the analysis of ice cores and after 1958 from direct atmospheric sampling shows that the amount of carbon dioxide in the air has been increasing since 1800. Before 1800 the density was about 275 parts per million by volume. Today it is about 355 parts per million by volume. The increase is generally believed to be due to the combination of increased burning of fossil fuels and before 1905 to deforestation. The total source is estimated to have been increasing exponentially at least until 1973. From 1973 until 1990 the rate of increase has been much slower, however. About half the production of carbon dioxide has appeared in the atmosphere. Nevertheless, we have already seen a significant increase in carbon dioxide that has been accompanied by increases in other minor greenhouse gases such as methane and chlorofluorocarbons. Indeed, in terms of greenhouse potential, we have had the equivalent of a 50 percent increase in carbon dioxide over the past century. The effects of those increases are certainly worth studyingquite independent of any uncertain future scenarios.

    Climate
    An Introduction uncertainties exist about exactly how earth's climate responds to them. Go to the Emissions section for much more on greenhouse gases Our Changing Atmosphere Energy from the sun drives the earth's weather and climate, and heats the earth's surface; in turn, the earth radiates energy back into space. Atmospheric greenhouse gases (water vapor, carbon dioxide, and other gases) trap some of the outgoing energy, retaining heat somewhat like the glass panels of a greenhouse.
    Without this natural "greenhouse effect," temperatures would be much lower than they are now, and life as known today would not be possible. Instead, thanks to greenhouse gases, the earth's average temperature is a more hospitable 60°F. However, problems may arise when the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases increases.
    Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide have increased nearly 30%, methane concentrations have more than doubled, and nitrous oxide concentrations have risen by about 15%. These increases have enhanced the heat-trapping capability of the earth's atmosphere. Sulfate aerosols, a common air pollutant, cool the atmosphere by reflecting light back into space; however, sulfates are short-lived in the atmosphere and vary regionally.
    Why are greenhouse gas concentrations increasing? Scientists generally believe that the combustion of fossil fuels and other human activities are the primary reason for the increased concentration of carbon dioxide. Plant respiration and the decomposition of organic matter release more than 10 times the CO

    you are here: Free-Market.Net Spotlight Global Warming: Heated debate Heated debate There's a lot about the controversy over global warming to make your head spin, from dense science to denser policy. But it's not hard to fathom why an international gathering at The Hague to hash out the implementation of the Kyoto Treaty's bitter-medicine approach to climate change collapsed into chaos. Note to world bureaucrats: If you want northern Europeans to oppose things that might warm the planet, don't schedule meetings for late November. That's about as clear as things get, though. A bit foggier are the answers to such questions as:
    • How much is the Earth actually warming?
    • What's making it get warmer?
    • Is this bad?
    • Should I buy a beach house in Alaska?
    For starters, it looks like the planet has grown a tad toastier over the past century by about 0.6° C, or so. That's a bit iffy, since the Earth hasn't been cooperative about warming consistently. In fact, according to NASA, the United States have grown a bit cooler since about 1940. But it appears that the Earth (aside from the typically contrary U.S. of A.) has warmed a bit.

    Impacts
    Rising global temperatures are expected to raise sea level, and change precipitation and other local climate conditions. Changing regional climate could alter forests, crop yields, and water supplies. It could also affect human health, animals, and many types of ecosystems. Deserts may expand into existing rangelands, and features of some of our National Parks may be permanently altered.
    Most of the United States is expected to warm, although sulfates may limit warming in some areas. Scientists currently are unable to determine which parts of the United States will become wetter or drier, but there is likely to be an overall trend toward increased precipitation and evaporation, more intense rainstorms, and drier soils.
    Unfortunately, many of the potentially most important impacts depend upon whether rainfall increases or decreases, which can not be reliably projected for specific areas.

    Global warming
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
    Global warming is an increase over time of the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans . It is generally used to describe the temperature rise over the past century or so, and the effects of humans on the temperature. The term may be used to describe theories explaining such an increase or the crisis that many say will arise if no one does anything to prevent such an increase from occurring. Use of the term "global warming" usually implies a human influence. The more neutral term climate change is usually used to describe previous natural variations. However, the UNFCCC defines "climate change" as anthropogenic http://www.grida.no/climate/ipcc_tar/wg1/518.htm In the it was unclear whether global warming or global cooling were more likely in the near future (next 100 years). By 1980 most opinion was in the warming camp, though uncertainties remained large. Since , however, the prospect that the earth's surface might become dangerously overheated because of heat trapped by carbon dioxide and other " greenhouse gases " took over and it has been a hotly debated topic ever since.

    "The farther backward you can look,
    the farther forward you are likely to see."
    - Winston Churchill
    The last decade of the 20th Century was the warmest in the entire global instrumental temperature record, starting in the mid-19th century. All 10 years rank among the 15 warmest, and include the 6 warmest years on record.This warmth is unusual for the past century, but what about in the context of past centuries or millennia? It is only through the reconstruction of past climate that we can truly evaluate the magnitude of this warming. NOAA's Paleoclimatology Program is working with scientists from around the world to study past climate in hopes of achieving a better understanding of the Earth's present and future climate. This site was developed to help educate, inform and highlight the importance of paleoclimate research; as well as to show how paleoclimate research relates to global warming and other important issues of climate variability and change. 19 May 2000
