Well worth a read and a listen

This Changes Everything - Naomi Klein.

Well written and articulate argument for governments doing a lot more to combat climate change. She was interviewed on Woman's Hour today too.
Ty Gwyn

Does it,i`m not convinced at all,
Where`s the proof?

The climate has changed several times since the World began,what`s new,
Since i`ve been on the land the weather has been changeable so have the seasons,what`s new.
Rob R

Watch this programme, it's very interesting and useful to see why so many people have drawn the same conclusions over climate change.

Of course there are natural climate cycles (due to the variable nature of the earth's orbit over the centuries, etc) but what the scientists are talking about is the change due to us burning millions of tons of fossil fuels and changing the CO2 levels in the atmosphere on top of the natural cycles. This has been measured and is proven beyond doubt.

We'd be crazy to continue pumping more CO2 into the atmosphere.
It doesn't matter if you don't believe it - its happening.

Prove to me it isn't.
vegplot

Prove to me it isn't.
While I agree with you the onus on proof is on those make a claim rather than those denying it. Prove to me there isn't a chocolate tea pot in orbit around the moon.

Back to Ty Gwyn.

The evidence is very clear and the more data we gather the greater becomes the case for demonstrating that man has a profound effect on climate change. What is damaging is not that climate is changing but the rate of change is so fast the evolution cannot keep pace fast enough for the animal kingdom to adapt and survive and species extinction increases at an ever great pace.
Ty Gwyn

The trouble is,there are a lot of scientists who do not agree with each other,
What about the climate change scientists ship that got stuck in the ice not long back,similar to Mr Scott,
Why is the biggest member of the EU pumping out so much carbon?
Surely its not because they have vast numbers of Wind Turbines so they can balance their carbon books.
Now Japan ,the site of the Kyoto agreement is changing back to coal,no mention of sustainable energy,

And their both advanced countries.

The overwhelming majority of scientists agree that humans are accelerating climate change. They are not all in agreement about the rate or the exact consequences. Just because governments still condone buurning of fossil fuels doesn't alter the facts. If we don't change and soon we are all heading for a very rocky future.

Really?

What about the climate change scientists ship that got stuck in the ice not long back,similar to Mr Scott,


What about it? Are you suggesting that because there of climate change we shouldn't have ice? Climate change is about trends not fluctuations.


Why is the biggest member of the EU pumping out so much carbon?
Surely its not because they have vast numbers of Wind Turbines so they can balance their carbon books.


Because they're the power house of Europe perhaps?


Now Japan ,the site of the Kyoto agreement is changing back to coal,no mention of sustainable energy,


"A lack of locations with constant wind, environmental restrictions, and emphasis by power utilities on fossil and nuclear power hinders the employment of more wind power in the country".

No mention of sustainable energy? Where do you get your information from? A very quick search show Japan is investing in renewables but is hindered by industry. Don't forget Japan has relatively weak governance.

You miss the point. The assertion is plainly ridiculous and it's futile to try and prove it wrong. The claimant has to prove their case beyond reasonable double. You asked Ty Gwyn to prove something isn't so. Is that not just as futile?
Rob R

It answers most questions about it. The change is definitely happening, and there's certainly no harm in reducing our extraction of carbon while we work out how to perfect carbon capture. Come the day we do perfect it, the coal, oil & gas will still be there.

When one large volcanic eruption can put more CO2 into the atmosphere than the last 50 years of human endeavour I think most people have it wrong.....some on purpose for financial reasons.
Largest producer of CO2 never signed Kyoto agreement.
UK made promises of twice the reduction of the original Kyoto agreement but put the onus on the user by charging a Climate Change Levy. Note 'Levy' not 'Tax'. With a levy they could charge VAT on this charge.
Falstaff

I didn't realise they charged VAT on the Levy Graham.

0.85/7 degrees is an average TREND, the temperature can rise and drop below and above the trend (or average) and continue to maintain the same trend line. The worrying thing about climate change is not that it is changing, but that the rate at which it is changing is quicker than we, and other species, can adapt to cope with it.

Hi Jamanda.
Who or what are 'scientists' Someone in a white lab coat?
I am not saying all are wrong about everything, just some about something.
Read Patrick Moores first book where he explains that the craters on the moon are extinct volcanoes.
Read how 'scientists' say over 70% of the universe is missing and mumble about dark matter.
People do make mistakes, speak about things when ill informed.
This world is amazing and I don't think we will ever know all its mysteries. What I do know is life is too short to get annoyed with people over silly differences of opinion.

Rob,
I watched the remainder of Climate by numbers,very interesting indeed,
But one of the calculations made by the 2nd presenter based on Kreager in the South African gold fields,when working out the value of gold in the area,just did`nt add up for me,
If that had been working out the value of coal in the under lying land with varying horizontal seams,it was feasible,
But with most metal minerals,the lodes are varying vertical with barren ground between,and only following the course of the lode could a fairly accurate value be based on the land.

What also bug`s me is,of these climate change scientists given the data they have at hand,proven in the link,and numerous links following,20 -30 years ago they were predicting a return to the Ice Age,then all of a sudden it was the Ozone layer,Green House gases,Global Warming and now Climate Change.

I don't know about the gold analogy, but presumably it worked.

As for the inaccuracies of science, most may be wrong, but the more we learn, and the more changes we make (like CFC's) moves the goalposts. I don't know how accurate the estimates are, but one things for sure, reducing and stabilising carbon emissions can't do any harm, and getting more carbon in our soils can only do us some good, particularly if we have to deal with wetter seasons.

R22 was banned in most 'developed' countries. These 'developed' countries had a safe and efficient operating procedure with R22.
R22 was therefore sold and is still to 'developing' countries who had no safe and efficient operating procedures.

Hi Rob R
Here, we've had the windiest, wetist winter in living memory.
It could be caused by the northward current off the South American coast causing an El Nino which may be caused by the de-forestation of South America or it could be peoples memory.

The lull has been puzzling but there have been insights as to why as research suggests it's latency in the system much in the same water that the temperature rise water turn from liquid to vapour or steam is not linear but has a step in which there is no temperature rise for a period. The planet's thermodynamics are exceedingly complex but the models continue to forecast an overall rise in temperature despite the lull.

It's misleading to take a small section of data and try to represent that as any sort of justification. You might get some comfort from it but it's delusional. You have to look at the whole dataset continuously refining your models, testing hypothesis, and questioning the data and its sources. That's what climate scientists do and I'm sure the majority of them would love to be wrong about the conclusions they've come to.
Falstaff

The reason it is now called climate change instead of global warming is the publics inability (as has been shown here on this thread) to believe the average global temperature is rising. But there is an increase in 'freak' weather events, hence the name change. Yes twenty or thirty years ago we where talking about triggering a new ice age. That is still possible. It has nothing to do with average temperature rises directly, but the increase of fresh water mixing with the sea water. This will (as has happened in the past, proved by ice core samples) switch off the Gulf stream that keeps our climate mild. See shutdown of thermohaline circulation. So in answer to your doubts they are all true. The planet is warming. The climate is changing. & we could all still freeze our knackers off if we dont wise up. Tavascarow
