What would you say if you discovered CO2 is not a driver of climate change?

Latest research indicates that the real drivers of climate change is the suns output and the earth's magnetic field both of which are in constant flux. The sun's out put seems obvious but the earth's magnetosphere determines how much cosmic rays reach the lower atmosphere. The more cosmic rays in the atmosphere the more cloud cover. The more clowd cover the cooler the climate. CO2 has Zero impact on climate. Man generated CO2 has even less effect.

@yeronlyman There are multiple sources. This planet actually needs more C02 not less.

@yeronlyman US News and World report. Leighton Steward

@puck61 if there are multiple sources then multiple citations should be easy to supply

@yeronlyman Religion much? You wouldn't believe his citation anyways. Yours is a religion not science.

@yeronlyman Of course when the Silicone Valley gang is on the globalist bandwagon, these things can be difficult. We were supposed to have been completely wiped out by the year 2,000 according to the globalists in the eighties. My tidal markers have not changed at all in the last 14 years. Something is rotten in Denmark, and sure doesn't take a weatherman to see which way the wind blows.

One newspaper article you cited

“ Much of the global warming debate has focused on reducing CO2 emissions because it is thought that the greenhouse gas produced mostly from fossil fuels is warming the planet. But Steward, who once believed CO2 caused global warming, is trying to fight that with a mountain of studies and scientific evidence that suggest CO2 is not the cause for warming. What's more, he says CO2 levels are so low that more, not less, is needed to sustain and expand plant growth.

The citation for the “mountain of studies” ?

@yeronlyman Why don't you do some research on your own. Verify or deny the author based on your research instead critiquing newspaper articles.

@yeronlyman If you want to be an alarmist, that is your prerogative. I believe in freedom of religion except for the fascist one from Arabia.

@hippyjoe1955 I asked you for a citation to your claim and made no inference. Supply it or don’t as the case may be

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman I responded by telling you to do your own research. Try stepping out of your religious bubble and read some SCIENTIFIC papers that disagree with the brain washing you have received.

yeronlyman · 51-55, M

@puck61 what are you talking about?

You said “ There are multiple sources” and cited a newspaper article that referred to “a mountain of studies”, uncited

yeronlyman · 51-55, M

@hippyjoe1955 you made the claim

Supply your reference

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman Do some research on your own. Find some studies that disagree with what you believe and try to disprove them on your own.

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman Do your own research.

yeronlyman · 51-55, M

@hippyjoe1955 you made the claim, make the reference known

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman Do your own research. You will be the better person for it.

yeronlyman · 51-55, M

@hippyjoe1955 “Latest research indicates that the real drivers of climate change is the suns output and the earth's magnetic field both of which are in constant flux.”

Cite your reference to the “latest research”

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman Go find them yourself. I did. So can you. Maybe you will learn how to do research in the process.

yeronlyman · 51-55, M

@hippyjoe1955 citation to your claim?

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman Go find your own sources of information and try to balance them from both sides. People who ask for citations never know how to research and never learn to toss out bad information. They pretend to be wise but instead are fools. Kind of sad but Funny as all get out.

yeronlyman · 51-55, M

@hippyjoe1955 you made the claim, show the evidence for your claim. Let the evidence speak for itself and be judged upon its merit

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

@yeronlyman And if you want to disprove it you would be busy doing your own research instead of asking for citations.
