you'll have to ask him. i'd be willing to bet he has sharted a few times in his life like 99.9% of human beings. i'd bet he's gotten piss drunk a few times and pissed in some weird places.

we can't all be 46 year old virgins like you, red.

CO2 didn't initiate warming from past ice ages but it did amplify the warming. In fact, about 90% of the global warming followed the CO2 increase.
Earth’s climate has varied widely over its history, from ice ages characterised by large ice sheets covering many land areas, to warm periods with no ice at the poles. Several factors have affected past climate change, including solar variability, volcanic activity and changes in the composition of the atmosphere. Data from Antarctic ice cores reveals an interesting story for the past 400,000 years. During this period, CO2 and temperatures are closely correlated, which means they rise and fall together. However, based on Antarctic ice core data, changes in CO2 follow changes in temperatures by about 600 to 1000 years, as illustrated in Figure 1 below. This has led some to conclude that CO2 simply cannot be responsible for current global warming.
Figure 1: Vostok ice core records for carbon dioxide concentration and temperature change. This statement does not tell the whole story. The initial changes in temperature during this period are explained by changes in the Earth’s orbit around the sun, which affects the amount of seasonal sunlight reaching the Earth’s surface. In the case of warming, the lag between temperature and CO2 is explained as follows: as ocean temperatures rise, oceans release CO2 into the atmosphere. In turn, this release amplifies the warming trend, leading to yet more CO2 being released. In other words, increasing CO2 levels become both the cause and effect of further warming. This positive feedback is necessary to trigger the shifts between glacials and interglacials as the effect of orbital changes is too weak to cause such variation. Additional positive feedbacks which play an important role in this process include other greenhouse gases, and changes in ice sheet cover and vegetation patterns. A 2012 study by Shakun et al. looked at temperature changes 20,000 years ago (the last glacial-interglacial transition) from around the world and added more detail to our understanding of the CO2-temperature change relationship. They found that:
  • The Earth's orbital cycles trigger the initial warming (starting approximately 19,000 years ago), which is first reflected in the the Arctic.
  • This Arctic warming caused large amounts of ice to melt, causing large amounts of fresh water to flood into the oceans.
  • This influx of fresh water then disrupted the Atlantic Ocean circulation, in turn causing a seesawing of heat between the hemispheres. The Southern Hemisphere and its oceans warmed first, starting about 18,000 years ago.
  • The warming Southern Ocean then released CO2 into the atmosphere starting around 17,500 years ago, which in turn caused the entire planet to warm via the increased greenhouse effect.
Overall, about 90% of the global warming occurred after the CO2 increase (Figure 2).

The first chart shows a pattern of lower lows AND lower highs. This is a strong indicator of global COOLING.

I'd be more than happy for state run nukes but would settle for what ever gets offered be it joint run or just subsidised aslong as the end results are met. Improved energy effiency can only go so far and often eclipsed by us finding new uses for that power. Small scale wind and solar have their places and it's the most accessible but it's very unrealistic to expect it to support our needs Big jobs like nuke and hydro electric needs government help to get done

Government usually hinders these projects, not advances them.

Global warming cant be real It is why energy companys are spending millions fighting the results Teh Kochs have even developed a elementary school program That way they can get kids while they are young to grow up and be corporate Koch suckers

I've said no such thing. I will say that they back everything up that they say All your doing is giving disproven talking points smothered in insults. It's clear you have already made up your mind so there's little point discussing it further than quoting the prewritten counter arguements

Please supply links to support your statement. We have about 100 million cattle in the U.S. http://www.epa.gov/rlep/faq.html How many of those cattles are slaughter for the very reason you just say..Please supply your link..Thanks

He was talking dairy cattle, you are trying to be clever by distorting my statement by including ALL cattle. Not clever, just dishonest. "Cattles"? ...lol.....

Astounding claim! Should we say unbelievable? Any proof of that?

Or, you know, Ron is really heavily into precious metals and commodities and isn't overly diverse. Some of us have done rather exceptionally well of late. Resentment is a real bitch.
