The comic curiously did not include the judge's actual ruling on the film:

Anyway, the attempt to attack AGW by attacking a political documentary made by a non-expert is pretty much the definition of a strawman argument.

Temperature raising is a symptom, and it will cause harm both to the earth and to the humans. You can either argue what caused it, but it's better to fix it no matter it's origin
>>
>>7972081
Sorry, Georgy, but it doesn't matter if climate change is anthropogenic or not. Humans need to prepare ways to geoengineer the climate. You best get on board.

For example, 10,000 years ago, during the Younger Dryas, temperature dropped 15'C in a decade. Conveniently stable temps is probably a historic anomaly. Humanity needs to be ready to take steps to control that or any other disastrous possibility.

The majority of people on this Earth and countries will be directly impacted negatively by higher temperatures.

Even Canadians, Norwegians, et. al., who at first might think they'll benefit, will see their economies contract as soon as their larger export markets start getting the heat
>>
>>7972331
Ozone hole was largest ever recorded 2006. Why?

CFCs had decreased by 10% since their highest levels. By any logic the hole should've been shrinking since the montreal protocol. It's based on flawed studies, flawed models, and flawed reasoning.

But whatever, it's banned, deal done. Unlike CFCs that are a niche industrial gas there's no replacing of CO2 though as long we run on fossil fuels. And there's no economically or politically viable solution to it.

>>7972343
>By any logic the hole should've been shrinking since the montreal protocol.

Not really, its a lot more complex than just "there are fewer CFC's in the atmosphere than before, therefore we should see a proportional decrease in the size of the hole". For one Chlorine radicals can persist in the atmosphere quite some time.

>>7972346
>No. Everyone will enjoy it and benefit because I say so
What a joke, not even the pope would have the audacity to say such a thing about something imposed on catholics

The entire extent of people who will "enjoy" global warming is concentrated on the American-Canadian border, and Northern Europe, that is, until their export-markets go bust and sea-level rise forces people to relocate from the coast (I'm sure the Dutch will enjoy it)
>>
>>7972367
>Yes really.

Not really, I looked it up CFC's can persist in the atmosphere for between 41 and 108 years. When you say that CFCs use had decreased by 10% all that would do is reduce the rate at which the hole is expanding.
>>
>>7972371
>the pope
Irrelevant to the discussion.

>until their export-markets go bust
Warm weather boost economy globally, unless they fuck up with economic policy the export market will be booming.

> sea-level rise
Have been constant rate since we started measuring. Not going to change.

>Dutch
They are already below sea level, they know how to deal with it. And like the dutch everyone else can simply adapt as needed. You seem to believe the sea will remain constant for 100 years and then suddenly jump up half a meter to surprise everyone. Because sea level variability is like half a meter pretty much everywhere anyone who's going to face a problem with the sea in the coming 50 already have a problem due to any casual storm surge coming their way.

Stop trying to cry over our supposedly doomed world so much, your arguments are obviously based on the assumption that we're all going to die and should feel guilty over it but they're plain and simply wrong.
>>
>>7972376
>reduce the rate at which the hole is expanding.
But you posted a link that said it's shrinking. Now it's suddenly expanding again? I know you're a rabid environmentalist but even you should realize when you're directly contradicting yourself.

Maybe it's naturally variable and CFCs does jack shit because insufficient and flawed models?

>>
>>7972383
>But you posted a link that said it's shrinking.

Different guy brah. The size of the hole changes from year to year, it's strongly dependent on how cold the winter is in the Antarctic (and since 2011 the Arctic) in the Stratosphere, so yeah you'd expect it to show some seasonal variability. Unfortunately all climate models to date show that the Stratosphere should cool while the Troposphere warms (this is borne out in the data). Like I said at the start this is more complex than "there are less CFC's now than in the past".

>They are already below sea level, they know how to deal with it.
Knowing how deal with it != it's a good thing, dealing with it costs money and puts stress on the economy.

Stop conflating my contempt for /pol/tards with "crying", humans have been proven to fundamentally alter the atmosphere before with the lead and ozone issues.

It stimulates the economy to build sea walls, also because sea level rise is constant it means it's natural and postglacial so it was unavoidable.

I don't think you know what fundamentally means. Changing a trace gas concentration is certainly not that.

Seriously this is a dead hype horse.

Fun facts.

>Ozone blocking UV radiation causes the ozone to be destroyed. It's in its job description to get rekt. As such it's in constant and rapid turnover and for the chemical degradation of ozone to tip this balance significantly the concentrations would need to be enormous.

>Ozone blocks UVB radiation. UVB is associated with squamous cell carcinoma.

>UVA causes the dreaded malignant melanoma. If you go out in high UV index without sunscreen you're stupid anyway because you're getting a more dangerous form of cancer than ozone depletion could give you.


>Was it wrong to ban it?
Nah, it's replaceable.

>Would we all have died without the ban?
Nah, we'd at most see a peak in epidemiological data, as with all other pollutant we're exposed to, not to mention lifestyle habits, drugs and medication damage we're subjected to.

Ah and to top it all of, the piece de resistance, the 'ol "scientists were wrong in the past, therefore they are wrong now."

This is the problem with your retarded conspiracy logic, it can be applied to anything and anyone. But that's the point, since you can't contend with the facts, you must resort to baseless lunacy to reach your preconceived conclusion. you know it and I know it that you have no scientific basis for your position.

there is no mathematical model of AGW that can be rigorously observed

AGW is built around a premise that must be accepted in order for the rest to fall into place

So classical mechanics was never a fact? Of course it was, but let's just say you're right, fact is synonymous with truth. Is quantum mechanics a fact? Is evolution a fact?

Why should we accept this when you just argued that the consensus has been wrong in the past? If not, you disbelieve all science, not just climatology.

You have an unfortunate inability to distinguish between theories and facts. Classical mechanics is a theory, as is evolution.

Climate Change isn't even much of a theory because its unfalsifiable. At least classical mechanics theory has that going for it.

The last physicist, Richard Feynman said "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts," you on the other hand believe that "Science is the popularity of the experts." And that's sad.
>>
>>7972884
>Almost no-one says that CO2 isn't a greenhouse gas.
That doesn't respond to the point jackass. It's obviously falsifiable because it's contingent on empirically measured facts. Everyone knows things fall when you drop them, that doesn't mean gravity isn't falsifiable. Fucking retard.

>The real question is how strong/dangerous is the effect.
You just destroyed your own argument. If AGW says that climate forcings are in some range then all you have to do to falsify it is to show the forcings are outside of that range. Saying an effect is strong is immediately falsifiable.

>Classical mechanics is a theory, as is evolution.
Irrelevant, all facts are theories. Classical mechanics was once a fact as much as evolution is now. Again, how do you know that evolution is true? It's because scientists have found a large amount of evidence for it and agree that it is the best theory to explain that evidence. But this could be disproved tomorrow if we found out that everything on Earth was designed by aliens. Evolution might not be true, but it's true *as far as we know*. Facts != truth. This is something you should have learned in high school. Did you attend?

>The last physicist, Richard Feynman said "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts,"
The irony of course is that you are appealing to Richard Feynman's wisdom as an expert while arguing that one should not appeal to expertise. In the real world, consensus does matter. But this is all irrelevant as in order to prove the consensus wrong, you would have to prove them wrong using science. That is far outside your ability, so you are talking out of your ass.

Shameless strawman. That's the exact opposite of what I'm saying. AGW is a fact. It is the truth *as far as we know*. That is all that science tells us, the best approximation of the truth that we have at any one moment. So your idiotic analogy fails on several levels, since you are using current facts that disproved former facts to argue against a current fact as if it a former fact. Again, if truth is synonymous with fact, then you must treat evolution and quantum mechanics with the same skepticism. But you won't, because you are arguing from an ideological position, not a scientific one.

Respond to all my points or concede, shitposter.

quantum mechanics has been mathematically modeled and such model can be observed
you can look at geology and the fossil record and see that evolution has occurred, it's got the supporting evidence

AGW has no mathematical model that can be observed, and the geological and historical record tells us that the Earth has been undergoing climate change since it came into being. In fact there were periods of far more severe climate change than what is concurring when humans didn't even exist!

No, I care about the facts. The consensus is only a shortcut to figuring out what the facts are.

>i treat all things with the same skepticism, however upon further investigation you will see that quantum mechanics and evolution withstand academic rigor whereas climate science can not
Who determines academic rigor? It certainly isn't you. You know nothing about science. It's the scientists. If AGW did not withstand academic rigor then it would not be widely published. So move on to your conspiracy logic, it's really the only thing you have and I already debunked it.

>quantum mechanics has been mathematically modeled and such model can be observed
So has AGW. There are plenty of quacks who argue that quantum mechanics is false or quantum mechanics is unfalsifiable. This is because they don't understand what quantum mechanics is and have an ideological need to deny consensus physics. You are no different.

>you can look at geology and the fossil record and see that evolution has occurred, it's got the supporting evidence
There are plenty of people who deny the evidence right in front of their eyes. You are no different. You selectively deny the facts.

There are actual papers you can read.
FUCKING READ THEM.

>show the mathematical model for AGW that can be observed and has been able to be overlain new occurrences and hold up to them
Which model? There are shitloads of them.
If I was feeling charitable (and you've ruined that already), I'd suspect that you were getting confused by the fact that AGW isn't a single claim or prediction. It's a conglomerate idea made out of a bunch of different models, datasets and theories. Just like evolution, if you need an analogy.

As it stands though, you're just asserting the same stupid shit over and over. Claiming the <X> scientific theory is a unfalsifiable has been a standard denial since the days when creationists were taken seriously. It was stupid then, and it's stupid now - point out a SPECIFIC part of AGW you don't like, and you'll find reams of papers that describe falsification requirements. But if you just wave your hands around wildly, of course your not going to get precise responses.

the hoax theory doesn't really make any sense. Hoaxes are pretty hard to pull off when you have many different governments agencies collaborating on the research.

You also have evidence from different fields of science to support agw, like what evolution has. It's not just climatologists working on the research. When you have many different governments and fields of science working on agw, then a hoax is kinda improbable.

Besides, what would they have to gain from it anyway? more support for nuclear power and fuel efficient cars?

those are all English words, yes, but you've strung them together in a way that's just a bunch of babble. using scientific terminology doesn't make you smart, let alone right.
now if you're alluding to methodological deficiencies in evidence-gathering, that's a valid concern. however, you've gone straight from "I think this evidence is unreliable" to "I'm going to ignore this evidence" and skipped the crucial step of showing why the methodology is bad.

The burden of proof lies with you to prove AGW and since the premise is fallacious, so is everything that follows

This is my new favorite sentence in this entire thread.
It simultaneously implies that an argument is logically invalid and that additional evidence is needed to support it, despite those two things being completely at odds with each other.

They don't have much money because cheaper and more reliable alternatives exist and they know that as long as those things exist their money machine can never take off

But they are very influential and you see that with the how many worshippers the Church of AGW has been able to gain

AGW is dogmatic as fuck and that's a major red flag for anything especially something that operates under the guise of science

If all of these climate models have failed in their predictions then why are they still standing?
Because of dogma and because anyone who disagrees will be ridiculed and ostracized

Climate deniers get the same treatment as flat-earthers and anti-vaxxers for the same reasons.

The paper you posted is flawed.

>The Monckton paper takes the point about quantification above to the extreme. It focuses exclusively on the papers that quantified human-caused global warming, and takes these as a percentage of all 12,000 abstracts captured in the literature search, thus claiming the consensus is not 97%, but rather 0.3%. The logical flaws in this argument should be obvious, and thus should not have passed through the peer-review process.

>It's also worth noting that based on Monckton's logic, only 0.08% of abstracts reject human-caused global warming.

This page has some links to papers showing a consensus.

listen here, nimrod. I know it's been said a bunch in this thread alone, but someone saying mean things to you isn't necessarily ad-hom. in fact, if they call your arguments retarded, it's the opposite of ad-hom.
you've been given evidence. right here >>7973146 and your response was to stick your fingers in your ears and hum. it's not my problem if you reject evidence out-of-hand without any rationale or justification, and it's nobody's job to provide you with more evidence for you to ignore.

I like how you avoided the point that it's not reliable and it shows different decay signature on different parts of the same subject you're testing.

>Literal billions of dollars from instituting a meme tax

Maybe you should stop and think for just one second. There is a massive trillion dollar industry that will fight tooth and nail to avoid regulations and to avoid ramping down production. You might have guessed that these are oil companies. Like tobacco, sugar and probably a whole bunch off other industries, they do not want regulations. They will spit in money in PR, "science", buy scientists and generally try to sway the public opinion.

This is a tried and tested method, I cannot even believe people can willfully ignore that multi-billion dollar companies will not outright muddy the debate to avoid regulations. How can you say with a straight face that one side is financially invested when the other is probably more by at least an order of magnitude? You have to be a fool or in the pockets of oil companies to ignore this.

But hey, that doesn't fit you retarded argument.

And those taxes would get passed right along to the consumer. Want to see what soaring energy costs do to people? You really don't cause it ain't pretty. The only viable alternative to fossil fuels is nuclear but guess what happened with that industry, a bunch of people came together and created a boogeyman there as well, a boogeyman that preys on boomers' instant connection between the word "nuclear" and "missiles raining down from Moscow"

Now the AGW boogeyman is in place and instead of Soviet missiles being connected to fossil fuels it's pictures of dying animals with the message "you did this by driving your car and turning on your air conditioner!!" pumped into kids heads literally from kindergarten

Anything shrouded in dogma, as AGW is, is bunk

But the gubmints could just say don't raise energy prices. This is a conspiracy with the majority of 1st 3orld countries accepting AGW and all keeping the secret that it's a lie, but it's impossible they could tell oil companies what to do directly, apparently

AGW does stand up to rigorous academic inquest tho
