Okay. Thyme Howdt. Stop the cacophony. It is time to stop and look at the information and substantiate the claims and counterclaims concerning climate science. The latest item describes how a slight variance of sun temperature impacts Pacific Ocean currents. The article describes the use of three models to clarify the separate components of major interest that cause measurable effects at one tenth of one percent.
Dr. Lenny has always understood that the amount of solar intensity measured as radiant heat is a couple orders of magnitude greater than the heat generated on the surface of the earth. This research sets the number at three orders of magnitude. This implies that any action taken on the surface of the earth to affect climate change would have a maximum .1% effect.
The Copenhagen meetings scheduled for this winter are going to set some pretty heavy world environmental policy to counteract the effect of global warming. Do you think it might be time for a new school of thought on international politics?
This is not to imply that we shouldn't stop fouling our nests or that we should begin addressing the proper scale resource distribution. Gaia has some serious resperatory problems concerning our atmosphere. Now that we have somewhat successfully addressed chlorofluorocarbons, nitrous oxide is the next big bad guy. Let's hope that the first movement is not laws against dentists!
