Exposing the Global Warming Fraud | Somewhat Reasonable
Five hundred million years ago, the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was 15 to 20 times what it is today. Yet the catastrophic water-vapor amplification of carbon dioxide warming never occurred. Today we’re told catastrophic warming will result if carbon dioxide doubles. But during the Ordovician Period, the carbon dioxide level was 12 times what it is today, and the earth was in an Ice Age. That’s exactly opposite to the “runaway” warming that computer models predict should occur. Clearly the models are wrong; they depend upon an assumption of amplification that is contrary to the climate record of millions of years. Still, the greenhouse proponents cling to their dogma. The facts don’t matter.
