    I am halfway through Steven's book and it is an eye opener, well worth the read, what the climate scientists leave out of reports is the most revelevent data, science should inform, not persuade.

      Earth's greenhouse effect is a model of a system always in saturation is taught in USA high school science, at least it was in the 1970s. There no means to make a system in saturation to have more effect. Earth's greenhouse effect takes place within 20 meters of surface absorbing all the radiant greenhouse energy from the surface with greenhouse gases 99-1/2% on average being due to water vapor. The IPCC science report in the back of some 200 pages states in took its greenhouse gas samples at 20,000 meters altitude. The a legal back stop because a reasonably educated person can be argued would know that is not where greenhouse gases are active or earth's greenhouse effect takes place. The IPCC has been very transparent on it.

    Koonin's book is outstanding. It is called "Unsettled?". It is a science-based book so if you have no science background it will require you to put some effort into it but the knowledge you will gain is critical for an informed society. If you get your current knowledge of climate science from main stream media or from your public school teacher then you have been misinformed.

    This is the best articulation of the difference between

    And follow the science wherever it leads.
    Dennis Prager would be a very effective outlet for this discussion.
    Along with essentially every conservative outlet.
    HOWEVER getting on a left leaning outlet would be even more effective.
    Perhaps there is one liberal who will understand the issues related to keeping the very poor in poverty and dare to let you have a voice.

    Electric Vehicles emit greenhouse gasses in a big slug when they are born, so much that a gasol8ne car can drive 50,000 miles before they reach an EV amount. But the EV slug has been warming the atmosphere for years by that point, so the gas car has to drive another 50,000 miles before its global warming impact can EQUAL the global warming effect of the EV. So the EV jumps so far ahead of a gas car in GHG emissions that it takes 100,000 miles to catch up to the EV's warming impact from the time it is MADE, months before it is sold. And if your local electricity comes from fossil fuels, it goes even further ahead of the gas car in ADDING to global warming. EVs ADD to global warming for the first 10 years of their lives.

    10:30 Earth's greenhouse effect is a model of a system always in saturation which is taught in USA high school science, at least it was in the 1970s. All the greenhouse radiant energy from the surface is entirely absorbed by greenhouse gases within 20 meters of the surface to add 10°F (5.55°C) to earth's average temperature. After 20 meters from the surface there is no more radiant greenhouse energy. Its further heat transfer is by convection i.e. molecules bumping into each other.
    Earth's greenhouse effect is an example of a system that is always in saturation even though its main greenhouse gas water vapor vary's hugely across the earth's surface. At average 1% tropospheric water vapor 99-1/2% of earth's greenhouse effect is from the strong greenhouse gas water vapor. There is no scientific mechanism known that would allow for increasing noncondensing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide and methane to warm the planet because water vapor always holds earth's greenhouse effect in saturation. This is high school science.
    The United Nation's IPCC science report makes it clear it is not discussing active greenhouse gas behavior when in the back of a 200 page report it declares it took its greenhouse gas samples at 20 THOUSAND meters altitude and only at that one altitude! This is a legal back stop to protect the instigators from prosecution of criminal fraud. It can be argued a reasonably high school educated person would know better than to accept the report as being relevant to global warming caused by greenhouse gases because by only sampling greenhouse gases at 20,000 meters altitude the report has made it transparent it is not discussing active greenhouse gas behavior or earth's greenhouse effect. Such legal back stops are common when misrepresenting products through vague wordings. Such items as a beverage labeled "All Natural Fruit Drink Flavor" might be discovered when reading the ingredients to have a statement "contains no actual fruit juice".
    There has been no correlation with global warming and rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the thirty year end-to-end period 1992 - 2022. It should be pointed out that global warming has been stalled at about 1°C since 1991. Somewhat ironically when Al Gore became vise president of the US in 1992 he tried to make it US federal policy human caused carbon dioxide emissions were causing global warming when in late 1994 it was announced global warming had paused in 1991 when global warming was reported at 1.1°C. During the Clinton - Gore administration ending in 2000 global warming temperature actually went down a bit as carbon dioxide levels continued to rise much as they'd done in the 1980s when global warming was rising at 2/10° per decade. In 2022 global warming was reported at 1.1°C.
