Looks like reflecting sunlight to cool the planet won't work as you might have anticipated

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/06/2006...

Whilst the ocean uptake of co2 could drop as emissions drop

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/06/2006...

It seems like we may be getting a little hemmed in.

At last some Science..... apart from why you felt the need for the the kicker at the end? Who's getting "hemmed in"? confused

Link 1. Totally agree Geoengineering in any form is guesswork and dangerous.

Link 2. Haven't quite got my head around that yet.

I only post science on the science thread. Some science from those on the other side would be novel.

Hemmed in meaning the number of escape routes/mitigating factors are 2 fewer it would appear.

Give it a rest Gadge try reading what you post.

Deniers deal in Misinformation and Fake News even actively encouraging the burning of more fossil fuels whilst denigrating renewables..but thats for the other thread.
Every time you use that word I read it as heretic or blasphemer.
All deniers do that biggrin
Could just be an atheist thing, we just tend to follow the science rather than believe in dogma.

All deniers glorify themselves as the only free-thinkers in the room and their oppos as dogma believers - it's in the script.

Atheism? You may as well invoke your non-belief in water dousing. It doesn't infer perfection smile

Yet another "no science" post Dicky. A quick flick back over the last 30 pages or so will be enough for anybody to see that I've started the last 4 or 5 conversations on this thread by posting a link to a scientific report.

Whilst you've supplied what? Drive-by wumming. If you don't like the science posts I make why bother replying with inane comments all the time?

You and Robinessex etc follow the science? laugh

Excellent post. Gave me an early morning chortle over my toast.

Excellent post. Gave me an early morning chortle over my toast.
And there's me thinking you are a staunch supporter of reducing one's CO2 output. Shame on you:-

Your Morning Toast may be Emitting CO2... How's it taste?

http://www.mynewsdesk.com/se/news/your-morning-toa...

"Recent discoveries from studies in UK farming has found a shocking correlation between farming of wheat for the production of bread and CO2 emission.

"A single loaf of bread produced in the UK contributes as much to global warming as more than half a kilogram (1.1lbs) of carbon dioxide, research has shown.".........continues

Reading your link it looks like the problem is the fertilizer the farmers are choosing to use is the issue.

My morning coffee is probably just as bad in one way or another.

More Science for your consumption, snipers and those who think it's all down to contrails won't like it.

Jet stream: Is climate change causing more ‘blocking’ weather events?

https://www.carbonbrief.org/jet-stream-is-climate-...

Prof Tim Woollings, associate professor of physical climate science at the University of Oxford, Oxford joint chair of the Met Office Academic Partnership, and author of a book on the jet stream. He tells Carbon Brief: 

“Blocking is a stationary and persistent weather pattern, most often an anticyclone [high-pressure system], that blocks the oncoming jet stream and storms.”

With a high-pressure weather system in the way, the oncoming weather is either deflected  away or it, too, stays put. This can bring extended periods of consistent weather, says the UK’s Met Office


The link is a good Q&A read.

No, but maybe yes in some areas and possibly longer lasting, it's complicated. biggrin

That was indeed an interesting article and well explained.

Quite, it typifies the whole climate change science in one article,
Thanks Gadgetmac, I can see why you put your "faith " in scientists like this. hehe

You expect climate change to be simple then? biggrin

And please do let me have your list of scientists and scientific institutions I can trust.. laugh

Read it objectively, from the point of being told the probability of man made climate change is high, do you see the problem?
Because the subject is complex is the point that is been made,
remember we are looking for the evidence of change brought about from a small addition to a trace gas in the atmosphere, when the variables ,known and possibly unknown are complex,
note that they are relying upon models for their predictions, this brings us back to GIGO, if the models are running incomplete data, given the complexity of a chaotic system a high probability , the outcome that is necessary for predictions becomes inevitably inaccurate but are still held up as the answer,

There never is any news there...But still the temperature rises. biggrin

Oh yea, that useless average thing, +1 Deg C in 100 years. I can't say I noticed it. PS. What's making it rise anyway?
