    Hi Sid,
    As you have rightly said before, life is too precious to waste on trying to put sense into someone whose mind is packed with DM-shit...

    • Sid's Statement # 10 (Proposed) is roughly in agreement with the fact re current CO2:

Many scientists see the spike as due to anthropogenic activity (The Industrial Revolution). And they clearly link the increase in CO2 to the increase in temperature (Part of the Non-Porous Greenhouse Gas Canopy argument):

      https://www.noaa.gov/news-release/ca...ustrial-levels

      So CO2 DOES have an impact on the climate as it is one of the causes of the rising heat level on Earth.

      I agree with Bob G - it is not generally acceptable and should be stricken from the list of Statements.
      Bob, your Wikipedia article does not refer to the physically proven fact that additional CO2 over and above 400 PPm does not hold as much radiation as the first 400 ppm. Your other link is a 404 error.
      Bob G did a lot of handwaving and failed to produce any evidence that disproved the peer-reviewed paper I offered up.
      I, too, could get my CT friends here to support me, but I won't as I despise the so-called "consensus" as it is a fraud that has been thrown at us both with the scamdemic and the climate change scam. Your process is a microcosm of this.
      Data talks bullshit walks.

        Opposition Challenge 1 - Bob Gillanders - Post # 1720 - 23/8/28)

        I think statement # 10 is outrageous.

        If true, it would give the fossil fuel industry unlimited licence to burn everything, because hey "would have no impact on the climate".
        As the church lady says, "how convenient".

        I do follow climate updates elsewhere, and I don't see any mention of support for statement #10. I know Sid has cited a recent study by a couple of scientists, so if it does gain credibility elsewhere, I will let you know.

        So instead of just letting statement #10 stand as is, I think some notation that it is not considered generally accepted as of now.


        Opposition Challenge 2 - Bob Armstrong (As Participant) - Post # 1732 - 23/8/31

        Our revised group Statement # 6 will be on our list of generally accepted Statements at 12:00 AM tomorrow:


        Between 600 million and 400 million years ago, CO2 in Earth's atmosphere was quite high (over 600 ppm). Between 200 million and 150 million years ago, it had dropped to over 300 ppm. and remained there. But by 2022, almost 200 years after the start of the Industrial Revolution [1850], the percentage of the air/atmosphere that is CO2 had again spiked. "Carbon dioxide measured at NOAA’s Mauna Loa Atmospheric Baseline Observatory peaked for 2022 at 421 parts per million in May, pushing the atmosphere further into territory not seen for millions of years, scientists from NOAA and Scripps Institution of Oceanography offsite link at the University of California San Diego announced today. "
        [ Note: The significance of CO2 as a factor in negative climate change is hotly debated. Whether CO2 production from the time of the Industrial Revolution is relevant is also hotly debated. These await further Statements, if any generally accepted Statements are possible.]


        Sid's Statement # 10 (Proposed) is roughly in agreement with the fact re current CO2:

        Additional carbon beyond 400-450 PPM where we are today (est) has no impact on the climate as all heat is absorbed in the first 400 PPM.

        Processing:

        Not one other CT'er came forward to support Statement # 10. In fact, there were 2 Challenges to the Statement.

        Conclusion

        Statement # 10 is not generally accepted. It will therefore now be removed from the list.

          Greening of the Earth and its drivers

          Abstract

          Global environmental change is rapidly altering the dynamics of terrestrial vegetation, with consequences for the functioning of the Earth system and provision of ecosystem services1,2. Yet how global vegetation is responding to the changing environment is not well established. Here we use three long-term satellite leaf area index (LAI) records and ten global ecosystem models to investigate four key drivers of LAI trends during 1982–2009. We show a persistent and widespread increase of growing season integrated LAI (greening) over 25% to 50% of the global vegetated area, whereas less than 4% of the globe shows decreasing LAI (browning). Factorial simulations with multiple global ecosystem models suggest that CO2 fertilization effects explain 70% of the observed greening trend, followed by nitrogen deposition (9%), climate change (8%) and land cover change (LCC) (4%). CO2 fertilization effects explain most of the greening trends in the tropics, whereas climate change resulted in greening of the high latitudes and the Tibetan Plateau. LCC contributed most to the regional greening observed in southeast China and the eastern United States. The regional effects of unexplained factors suggest that the next generation of ecosystem models will need to explore the impacts of forest demography, differences in regional management intensities for cropland and pastures, and other emerging productivity constraints such as phosphorus availability.


          https://www.nature.com/articles/nclimate3004

          32 authors from 24 institutions in 8 countries has revealed that an analysis of satellite data shows that there has been a 14% increase in green vegetation over 30 years between 1986 and 2016. 70% of this increase is attributed to CO2 in the air and that vegetation has increased every year from 1982 to 2009. The increase amounts to the equivalent of two landmasses the size of the United States in new green vegetation.

          The “greening” is most impactful in arid regions where they have high temperatures and higher CO2 concentrations. This helps plants to retain more water during transpiration which will help during dry spells and make the plants less “water-stressed.” The increased CO2 results in higher crop yields, which equates to more food and thriving wildlife. The result has been a $3 trillion increase in crop yields over the last 30 years.

          Opposition Challenge Reasons - By Bob Armstrong


          CO2 is a major component of the greenhouse gas canopy around Earth. This canopy (Methane is actually the more serious component however) is causing heat to be trapped in the Earth's air/atmosphere, and is raising the temperature of Earth's air/atmosphere, oceans and seas, soil, etc. this is the greatest threat to his existence that man has ever faced.

          Humans cannot handle "heat prostration" (Definition: A condition marked by weakness, nausea, dizziness, and profuse sweating that results from physical exertion in a hot environment. Heat exhaustion Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster). Only now, the "heat prostration" is not due to "physical exercise".....it is due to the simple inability to escape the heat. Even if Humans are able to go underground, the technology for inside air quality and temperature control will brake down under the stress on the energy system.

          The fact that CO2 is good for Earth's vegetation is not relevant. Continued existence of the human species is more important than the greening of the planet.

          For the Role of CO2 from 500 million years ago, see the video of YouTuber Pothole54.

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBF6F4Bi6Sg&t=38s


          So CO2 is a "dangerous pollutant", and Statement # 11 is false.

          Processing

          Not one other CT'er came forward with a Supplementary Challenge.

          Conclusion

          Statement # 11 is generally accepted, and it joins the list of Statements.

          [Secretarial Note: This Statement will now be renumbered as Statement # 10.]

            Generally-Accepted Statements Update

            (At 10 Statements as of 23/9/17; all currently fully processed)



            Click image for larger version  Name:	ClimateChange2.jpg Views:	0 Size:	17.7 KB ID:	229260


            Statement # 1

            Solar Activity is the main driver of climate change. It is heat from the sun that is the "source" of the rising air/atmospheric temperature of Earth.

            Statement # 2

            Earth's mean temperature is now rising, has been for some time, and will likely continue to rise for some time in the future.

            Statement # 3

            “The term “Record-Breaking” is sometimes loosely/wrongly used in the Main Stream Media re Earth's currently rising temperature. Cities across the globe may have unique geographic and meteorological characteristics that determine current temperature variations. Fact checking may be necessary.”

            Statement # 4:

            Currently rising air/atmospheric temperature of Earth is a problem for humanity.

            Statement # 5

            Since the year 1650 (200 years before the Industrial Revolution [Started: 1850], which is the earliest global temperature recording), the Earth's mean temperature has been rising naturally (Earth has been in a natural warming cycle; it has gone through various cooling and warming cycles before this current warming one). There is surface temperature data for the period 1650 to 1850, and beyond, from the records of the UK Meteorological Observatory. Some propose that they are sufficient to use to analyze our increasing temperature problem.

            Statement # 6

            For 650,000 years, CO2 in Earth's atmosphere never rose beyond 300 parts per million (to 1949). In 1950, 100 years after the start of the Industrial Revolution [1850], the percentage of the air/atmosphere that is CO2 had spiked dramatically to 380 parts per million. Since 1950, we have now had another 75 years of the Industrial Revolution. We are seeking a source for the 2023 count for CO2 parts per million.

            Statement # 7

            It is essential to have alternate sources of energy; it is good that this transition is now underway; our options include renewables (solar panels, tidal, water turbines, windmills) and nuclear. Traditionally used fossil fuels, including coal, are finite, though more plentiful than commonly thought.

            Statement # 8

            If farming has an effect on global negative climate change (Whether it does will be dealt with in another Statement, if possible), then any negative effect will be mitigated to some extent by the farming industry becoming “sustainable”. Sustainable agriculture is the efficient production of safe, high-quality agricultural product, in a way that protects and improves the natural environment, the social and economic conditions of the farmers, their employees and local communities, and safeguards the health and welfare of all farmed species.(Definition by Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food & Rural Affairs: https://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/busdev/facts/15-023.htm").

            Statement # 9

            The two seminal papers by distinguished atmospheric physicists, William Happer of the Princeton University Department of Physics and William A. van Wijngaarden of the York University, Canada, Department of Physics and Astronomy prove that Methane and Nitrous Oxide emissions have no statistically meaningful effect on warming hence farming does not have anything to do with climate change.

              Would it be possible .....

              for the world to pool monies to build on the major oceans large floating platforms, designed in location and construction to avoid and / or withstand the worst cyclone / hurricane events ... platforms on which would be growing the equivalent of the Amazon rainforest?

              These ocean rainforests would absorb much of the CO2 and release oxygen, and could also grow much-needed foods and medicinals for the world's use.

              Each platform would be dozens of miles in diameter, with a flexible system of pontoons and surface area that could roll with the waves.

              This might also help to cool the surface of the oceans, which are getting warmer every year.

              Obviously this would require billions of dollars of investment .... taken from the rich, of course (I knew you would like that part, Dilip!).

              Edit: I am reminded of the Ringworld novels of SF writer Larry Niven ... huge rings built by ancient aliens around a sun-like star. Surface area millions of Earths equivalent. Unimaginably huge. A slice of a Dyson sphere, basically, with huge rims around the edges to prevent water from flowing off. The rims and base were built from some unspecified material that could withstand anything, including meteorite / asteroid collisions, and there was in place multiple weapon sites to detect and blow up incoming asteroids. A great figment of the imagination.

                Analysis of Last Week's Stats

                Last week's stats are running a bit behind the 2023 average so far.

                But there remains here, a steady interest in the critical issue of negative climate change of almost 40 CT'ers daily. All sides of the issue are free to post material they claim to be in support (Though this thread was started by an Anthropogenicist). CT'ers are getting a good sampling of all that is out there. You decide!


                B.The Anthropogenicist Position

                The Pressing Climate Change Issue

                Building a sense of URGENCY on this issue in society. We must realize that we cannot kick it down the road any longer!

                The core issue:

                The public is aware of the climate change issue.......

                BUT.....

                climate activists must find strategies to “AWAKEN” the public to the “urgency”.

                It is expected, though somewhat disheartening, to see other negative issues of the day climb immediately to the top of the public's agenda, with climate change being sometimes substantially downgraded in importance. We will all pay for this.........


                The Time Line

                Nature's Tipping point is estimated to be, on current trajectory, only 8 years away (Around Jan. 1, 2031). Capping the temperature rise at only 1.5 degrees Celsius (the original international target) before then is now impossible (UN Climate Change Panel's most recent report in March, 2023). Their position is that the problem at this time is mostly due to human activity, not just “natural” warming, and that radical change in our method of living is the only way to avoid this rising, very problematic, temperature. UNCCP noted that current government deadlines were totally insufficient to solve the problem. CO 2 must be capped by 2025 since it is the main contributor to the problem! Methane is another greenhouse gas of concern, with some maintaining it contributes more to the problem than CO2. The extent of involvement in the greenhouse effect of water vapour is somewhat controversial.

                Also, it has now become necessary to add in the process of CO 2 “removal”, along with “eliminating” the spewing of greenhouse gases into our atmosphere by human activity.

                Our window of opportunity is fast closing.


                C. The Naturalist Position -Negative “Natural” Climate Change

                This thread has had a number of CT'ers arguing for Natural Climate Change, and arguing that the human economic activity contribution to negative climate change is negligible. We are just in one of Nature's long warming cycles.

                We would encourage everyone to consider the materials being presented, and then see whether they in any way change your perspective, if you are an adherent of negative Anthropogenic climate change. Whether you change anything, or not, your assessment of the evidence would be most welcome in this thread.


                D. Negative Climate Change: The “Conversation” Project

                All sides have been trying to come up with accurate Statements on climate change, giving Support Reasons, that will gain general acceptance....we are using "The Conversation Format Protocol (TCFP)".

                Under TCFP we have adopted in this thread, a proposed statement is given the benefit of the doubt that it is "generally accepted" when originally proposed. If not challenged during one week, then the Statement joins the other generally accepted Statements, without any discussion, nor Secretary ruling.

                Should a proposed Statement be challenged, with reasons, then all are free to post "Supplementary Support" or "Supplementary Challenge".

                As well, the onus is on the Challenger to muster CT'er support for his/her Challenge, to confirm that s/he is not the only challenger.

                The discussion will generally have one week to run from the date of the posting of the Proposed Statement.

                The goal is not “unanimity”, though that would be nice. Neither is the goal “consensus”. We only seek a substantial majority for a Statement to be “generally accepted”.


                E. CT'ers' (Of all stripes) Immediate Tasks

                a. Statement/Revised Statement/Challenge

                Propose your idea for the majority to consider. You can also just post a Supplementary Support for a Statement, or, a Supplementary Challenge.

                Take a hand at drafting "critical scientific statements in layperson's terms"!


                b. Negative Climate Change Thread “Responses”

                There are lots of climate change articles out there, both on negative anthropogenic climate change, and negative natural climate change.

                This thread encourages CT'ers on all sides to re-post here, as responses, the climate change posts of interest they see elsewhere. Overall, ChessTalker's have been quite active here in posting “responses”. It seems that chessplayers across Canada are wanting information on climate change, a challenge unlike any our species has ever faced before.


                Note:

                1. The goal of this thread is not to woodshed an opposing view into submission. Every position is entitled to post as it sees fit, regardless of the kind of, and amount of, postings by other positions. What is wanted is serious consideration of all posts........then you decide.
                2. I personally, as the thread originator, am trying to post a new response at least every 2
                nd day, but admit my busy schedule means I am sometimes falling short on this. So it is great that a number of other CT'ers are posting responses here somewhat regularly.

                c. CT'ers' Action: Promotion of the Conversation on Negative Climate Change

                i) The Large Picture Solution

                Can we come up with at least one viable suggestion of some impressive, radical thing that might wake up the public, that we could then put out there to other concerned climate activists?

                  Analysis of Last Week's Stats

                  Last week's stats are running a bit behind the 2023 average so far.

                  But there remains here, a steady interest in the critical issue of negative climate change of almost 40 CT'ers daily. All sides of the issue are free to post material they claim to be in support (Though this thread was started by an Anthropogenicist). CT'ers are getting a good sampling of all that is out there. You decide!


                  B.The Anthropogenicist Position

                  The Pressing Climate Change Issue

                  Building a sense of URGENCY on this issue in society. We must realize that we cannot kick it down the road any longer!

                  The core issue:

                  The public is aware of the climate change issue.......

                  BUT.....

                  climate activists must find strategies to “AWAKEN” the public to the “urgency”.

                  It is expected, though somewhat disheartening, to see other negative issues of the day climb immediately to the top of the public's agenda, with climate change being sometimes substantially downgraded in importance. We will all pay for this.........


                  The Time Line

                  Nature's Tipping point is estimated to be, on current trajectory, only 8 years away (Around Jan. 1, 2031). Capping the temperature rise at only 1.5 degrees Celsius (the original international target) before then is now impossible (UN Climate Change Panel's most recent report in March, 2023). Their position is that the problem at this time is mostly due to human activity, not just “natural” warming, and that radical change in our method of living is the only way to avoid this rising, very problematic, temperature. UNCCP noted that current government deadlines were totally insufficient to solve the problem. CO 2 must be capped by 2025 since it is the main contributor to the problem! Methane is another greenhouse gas of concern, with some maintaining it contributes more to the problem than CO2. The extent of involvement in the greenhouse effect of water vapour is somewhat controversial.

                  Also, it has now become necessary to add in the process of CO 2 “removal”, along with “eliminating” the spewing of greenhouse gases into our atmosphere by human activity.

                  Our window of opportunity is fast closing.


                  C. The Naturalist Position -Negative “Natural” Climate Change

                  This thread has had a number of CT'ers arguing for Natural Climate Change, and arguing that the human economic activity contribution to negative climate change is negligible. We are just in one of Nature's long warming cycles.

                  We would encourage everyone to consider the materials being presented, and then see whether they in any way change your perspective, if you are an adherent of negative Anthropogenic climate change. Whether you change anything, or not, your assessment of the evidence would be most welcome in this thread.


                  D. Negative Climate Change: The “Conversation” Project

                  All sides have been trying to come up with accurate Statements on climate change, giving Support Reasons, that will gain general acceptance....we are using "The Conversation Format Protocol (TCFP)".

                  Under TCFP we have adopted in this thread, a proposed statement is given the benefit of the doubt that it is "generally accepted" when originally proposed. If not challenged during one week, then the Statement joins the other generally accepted Statements, without any discussion, nor Secretary ruling.

                  Should a proposed Statement be challenged, with reasons, then all are free to post "Supplementary Support" or "Supplementary Challenge".

                  As well, the onus is on the Challenger to muster CT'er support for his/her Challenge, to confirm that s/he is not the only challenger.

                  The discussion will generally have one week to run from the date of the posting of the Proposed Statement.

                  The goal is not “unanimity”, though that would be nice. Neither is the goal “consensus”. We only seek a substantial majority for a Statement to be “generally accepted”.


                  E. CT'ers' (Of all stripes) Immediate Tasks

                  a. Statement/Revised Statement/Challenge

                  Propose your idea for the majority to consider. You can also just post a Supplementary Support for a Statement, or, a Supplementary Challenge.

                  Take a hand at drafting "critical scientific statements in layperson's terms"!


                  b. Negative Climate Change Thread “Responses”

                  There are lots of climate change articles out there, both on negative anthropogenic climate change, and negative natural climate change.

                  This thread encourages CT'ers on all sides to re-post here, as responses, the climate change posts of interest they see elsewhere. Overall, ChessTalker's have been quite active here in posting “responses”. It seems that chessplayers across Canada are wanting information on climate change, a challenge unlike any our species has ever faced before.


                  Note:

                  1. The goal of this thread is not to woodshed an opposing view into submission. Every position is entitled to post as it sees fit, regardless of the kind of, and amount of, postings by other positions. What is wanted is serious consideration of all posts........then you decide.
                  2. I personally, as the thread originator, am trying to post a new response at least every 2
                  nd day, but admit my busy schedule means I am sometimes falling short on this. So it is great that a number of other CT'ers are posting responses here somewhat regularly.

                  c. CT'ers' Action: Promotion of the Conversation on Negative Climate Change

                  i) The Large Picture Solution

                  Can we come up with at least one viable suggestion of some impressive, radical thing that might wake up the public, that we could then put out there to other concerned climate activists?
                  You can do something! Promote the discussion on Negative Climate Change!

                  ii)
                  The Local Picture Solution

                  Greenpeace co-founder, Dr. Patrick Moore, explains how unelected globalists (including Klaus Schwab and the United Nations) are using the #ClimateScam as an excuse to cut off fossil fuels and nitrogen fertiliser, in order to deliberately depopulate the planet. "These powerful elites, like Schwab and on down, they want control of the world. They want control of everybody. Now what do they want? They want fewer people."

                  • Proposed Generally Accepted Statement 11
                    The lack of number 37 in the atmosphere is the key problem of climate change.

                    Evidence
                    Scientists have observed 37 have the potential for spreading greenhouse gasses evenly, as evidenced by this balancing equation.
                    111/(1+1+1) = 37
                    222/(2+2+2) = 37
                    333/(3+3+3) = 37
                    444/(4+4+4) = 37
                    etc

                    Turns out, 37 is consistently the perfect average due to its balancing properties. An ideal number for Marxists.

                    • Sid - good one

                      I'll take under advisement, the processing of your new Statement # 11:

                      The lack of number 37 in the atmosphere is the key problem of climate change.

                          Brilliant effort! However I must challenge Statement 11.

                            Hence 37 is Nirvana-3+7=10. The perfect number!

                              I'm afraid that, as usual, you have it ass-backward again!

                              A proof co-authored by Dartmouth mathematics professor emeritus Carl Pomerance and Morningside College mathematics professor Chris Spicer appeared on an episode of the television series, “The Big Bang Theory” on April 18. The proof, which was featured on a whiteboard in the background of the show, reveals the uniqueness of the number 73.

                              Sheldon Cooper, one of the main characters on “The Big Bang Theory,” first expressed his affinity for the number 73 during the show’s 73rd episode, “The Alien Parasite Hypothesis,” which aired in 2010.

                              “The best number is 73,” Cooper explained in the episode. “Why? 73 is the 21st prime number. Its mirror, 37, is the 12th, and its mirror, 21, is the product of multiplying seven and three ... and in binary, 73 is a palindrome, 1001001, which backwards is 1001001.”

                              Thus the perfect number is not your 37, but 73. I await your apology, along with the unequivocal support of the other forty silent witnesses reading this....

                                Ok, I stand Corrected :-) but 73 still does not have the wonderful equalizing property so important for climate change
