[QUOTE="The Barbarian, post: 73570947, member: 7989"] Barbarian observes: I know you want to believe that. But the evidence shows that it is. In fact, predictions made decades ago, based on the absorbtion spectrum of carbon dioxide, turned out to be very accurate. [ATTACH=full]249000[/ATTACH] As you see, his prediction was, decades out, very accurate. I know you want to believe that, but the predictions based on CO[SIZE=3]2[SIZE=4] warming were precisely on. Since we know that it's a green house gas and since we know that it absorbs infrared at frequencies other greenhouse gases do not, it's not surprising that as we dump more of it into the atmosphere, things are warming up. It's not a new thing; this was predicted over a hundred years ago.[/SIZE][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][SIZE=4][/SIZE][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][SIZE=4][COLOR=#660000]In developing a theory to explain the ice ages, Arrhenius, in 1896, was the first to use basic principles of physical chemistry to calculate estimates of the extent to which increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) will increase Earth's surface temperature through the greenhouse effect.[3][20][21] These calculations led him to conclude that human-caused CO2 emissions, from fossil-fuel burning and other combustion processes, are large enough to cause global warming.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][SIZE=4][URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svante_Arrhenius"]Svante Arrhenius - Wikipedia[/URL][/SIZE][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][SIZE=4][/SIZE][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][SIZE=4]And we are seeing record global temperatures at a time when the Earth should be cooling.
