New England in the Summer of 2023. Now, does this look like a Climate Crisis to you? |
The Concept of leaving your "Carbon Footprint" in the sky shows that Climate Propagandists do NOT realize how asinine they come-off to the adult working class, especially in light of the fact that CO2 takes-up only 0.042% of the sky outside. Meanwhile, Methane exists in the same atmosphere at only 2 parts per million. Wings, clouds, kites, parasails, and birds of varying type are what people see in the sky; not hooves and not footprints.
Of course, if the Climate Propaganda Machine is trying to convey the concept of you leaving a trail of carbon behind you wherever you go, then such carbon is known as particulates, and particulates always fall to the ground ... eventually ... due to something called gravity.
The alternative concept is that of you carrying carbon around, wherever you go. Well, you are carbon. Of course, in having demonized carbon, the Climate Propaganda Machine demonized you personally. They declared you the enemy of Planet Earth ... or at least a great nuisance to the planet. Well, do you know what else is carbon ... pure carbon? ANS: Diamonds.
The Atmosphere is already 99.9% Carbon-free.
None the less, in light of the fact that the Earth's atmosphere is already more than 99.9% carbon-free, the endless harping of the "carbon footprint" is merely another form of empty propaganda, much like the Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction campaign.
The repetitive use of one-liners is the sign of a brain-washing con artist at work. It's a form of hypnotism, where the speaker does not wish to inform, but only to persuade ... or even to force all others into some type of submission. The submission consists in lots of money going into the pockets of the speaker. In as much, the mainstream media cannot report anything contrary to the prevailing campaign bumper sticker slogan which, today, involves your "carbon footprint." .
Accredited Scientists use a totally different approach, in selling to the public a belief in "global warming" only ... and not "climate change" per se.
These individuals accentuate the concept of "Positive Feedbacks," in the search to catalogue the "feedbacks" which increase something called, Radiative Forcing. The concentration of (the level of) CO2 in the atmosphere is far too small to drive any temperature grid. So, the scientists added water vapor into the conversation, claiming that a rise in CO2 will rise the radiative forcing of water vapor 4 and 5 times over. Of course, this never came close to happening.
None the less, the concept of Radiative Transfer is included in the debate package, along with TSI. The inclusion of TSI into the debate also includes consideration of the Milankovitch Cycles (very long-term sunspot activity), as well as the 11 year Sunspot Cycle. .
TSI is Total Solar Irradiance, and it is not to be confused with Solar Insolation. At present, its average flow into & through Earth's atmosphere is defined as 1,361 watts per meter squared, on average throughout the year, depending on the season. Solar Irradiance is an instantaneous measurement, while Solar Insolation is a cumulative measurement over a period of time.
Thus far, all that came to be was temperatures close to the heated temperatures of 1895-96, 1901, 1905, 1910-11, 1913, 1921-22, and 1934-1936. So, you can't be assured of any of the new climate model formulas recently submitted, to support the claim that CO2's rise in the atmosphere caused a positive feedback mechanism which elevated the Earth's average/mean surface temperature.
There were very contradictory cold spans too, during the rise in CO2
This is especially the case, during the cold record-breaking winter of 2025, the notable winter of 2023, the other record-breaking winter of 2021 in the Southern Hemisphere, and the multiply record breaking winter of 2014, both in the Northern & Southern Hemispheres. This include 2009-2010 Christmas holiday season, when the average temperature anomaly was minus 5F.
Those weather events were the opposite of a rise in the Earth's mean temperature. Even in 2008, the anomaly average hovered around minus 2F. In fact, 1993 to 1995 were cold times, as were 1985 and 1986, when speaking in terms of temp anomaly.
The three vibrational modes of CO2 makes a huge difference, depending on the prevailing mode
The biggest and most invalidating feature of the pro-Global Warmer climate models is that the models did not differentiate between CO2's radiative forcing capacity while in its three different vibrational modes. Not all CO2 molecules are alike.
All three vibrational modes of CO2 causes a different radiative capacity. In fact, when CO2 is in its Symmetric Stretch Mode, it is incapable of absorbing any infrared radiation/heat beyond a half a watt per sq meter. There is also the asymmetric stretch mode, as well as the bending mode which looks like a bird flapping its wings. Thus, CO2 cannot be regarded as a fungible good of the same likeness, in any climate model.
NOAA said 130 years. Someone did a tree ring report and said 2,000 years
And concerning the claim that 2023 was the hottest year in the past 2,000 years, this came from one scientist's tree ring assessment. NASA had long since stated that 1934 was the worse drought year, in the past 1,000 years. And during the very dishonest Biden Presidency ... where lying to humanity was the de facto policy ... NOAA stated that 2023 was the hottest year in the past 130 years, and NOT in the past 2,000 years.
None the less, there were years of super brutal and tragic heat in the early 20th and late 19th Century. And the decisive feature to this is that, according to the Michael Mann Theory of surface temperature, there should have not been any years of extreme heat in the early 20th and late 19th Century. In as much, the prevailing thesis statement here is that::: It has all happened before ... when the outdoor CO2 count was much lower than today. Period.
Now, there are a number of posts at the Blue Marble Album which show that the hyper-exaggerated temperature and weather reports were nothing more than dishonest hyper-exaggerations ... in detail. So too is this the case with 2022, such as the July 2022 Heat Wave hyper-exaggeration of London. As far as goes the Year 2023, look for other signs which indicate a truly heated year. If no such sign is there, then the recently reported "tree ring assessment" is yet another fraud. In as much . . .
1a] Did the Elbe River dry-up anywhere in Germany or the Czech Republic? 1b] In other words, were the engravings on the Elbe River Hunger Stones above the river's water level? 2] Were there an untold number of heat-related deaths in Paris, as there were in 2003, 1976, and in the very tragic Year of 1911?
3] As far as went the Tigris and Euphrates strife, that problem has been ongoing for consecutive years, and it traces back to dams that Turkey built by which water is kept away from the Euphrates. The dams themselves are low on water. BUT, it was NOT a 2023-only problem.
And of course, as a reminder, NOAA stated that the Year 2023 was the warmest year in the past 130 years ... NOT in the past 2,000 years. And what was occurred in or around 130 years ago? ANS: The dreaded heatwave years of 1895-96.
Quite frankly, 2023 wasn't hotter than 1911 ... and definitely not hotter than 1905, when it was so hot that the summertime waters of the Mediterranean was too hot for any human to enter without extreme discomfort.
In as much, what you need to understand, in realizing the non-reliability of these claims of the "hottest-year-in-so-many-years" is that there was very little weather-monitoring stations throughout the world in the early 20th Century, the 19th Century, the 18th Century, etc. So, how does mankind know what the temps were in many areas of Planet Earth without gathering "proxy evidence" from the natural terrain in those places? This is why basing a hockey stick graph on the YAD-061 set is entirely insufficient for any truth to be conveyed.
All valid scientific claims must match the Weather News History
HOWEVER, the one thing that is absolutely for sure is the Weather News Report History of the past 85, 105, and 135 years, as well as ship log entries, almanacs, and chronicles of centuries past. Factual history doesn't change, until people as dishonest as the Biden Shadow Presidency changes it.
In as much, it was the factual weather history which showed us that "this has all happened before," concerning the weather events of the past 5 years. This changes the face of the "Climate Change" Assertions, because the historic facts show us that there has not been much of a change in climate for over a 180 years . . . since the completion of the Little Ice Age, in 1840. There has only been a repetitive trend, where climate is like a roller coaster.
Of course, administrations as vicious and as dishonest as the Biden Administration will seek to change history books and records. The Biden People did this display of dishonesty with the US Wildfire Graph.
All in all, you must admit that ... if you were following ... the Biden Administration literally lied about everything ... when the Biden People weren't hiding facts outright. After all, everything that the Biden People did turned into a disaster of one degree or another. Meanwhile, Joe spent his presidency at the beach.
Now, numerous photo-copies of news reports and agency stats are posted on multiple posts, in this Blue Marble Album. As far as goes this particular post, everything is focused on national CO2 emission stats. And we begin:
Enter the decline of carbon emissions in the skies of first-world & high tech nations
The present Climate Hysteria propaganda is that the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Japan, etc must decrease their carbon dioxide emissions, as if they haven't been doing so for years. They mention the objective of reducing greenhouse gases.
Well, 90% of all of Planet Earth's greenhouse gases, by volume, is water vapor. Water vapor contains zero carbon in it.
Now, 70.8% of Planet Earth's surface is covered by water, and 96.5% of all of Planet Earth's water is in its oceans. Plus, the quantity of ocean water on Earth is 352 QUINTILLION gallons.
As far as goes all of the water on Earth, in Earth, and above Earth, it's alleged to be 332.5 million cubic miles. One cubic mile of water holds 1.1 trillion gallons of water. So, in order to truly decrease the Earth's greenhouse gases, you have to drain some ocean somewhere. And to where would the ocean water go?
None the less, the emission of greenhouse gases that are not water vapor have been on the decrease for years in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, and even in Syria. So, how much more does the modern alliance of America, England, and continental Europe have to do?
As of May 2024, Planet Earth's atmosphere reached its highest level of CO2 in human history. It even exceeded the CO2 levels of long before the beginning of human history. Yet, under the Joe Biden Shadow Presidency, draconian measures were imposed upon the mass populations of what used to be called the Free World. All of the regulations ... all of the impositions ... failed to achieve the Biden/Harris objective.
The objective was to render a trace amount of a molecular compound into even a smaller trace amount in the sky. And keep in mind that, at present, the sky outside comprises 0.0425% carbon dioxide. 99.9575% of the same sky does not ... contain CO2.
Of course, there is not enough co2 in the atmosphere to drive the climate, in the first place. The climate is driven by the Sun & the Coriolis Effect, as well as the juxtaposition of air pressure systems & the variable types of surface area of Planet Earth. So, the lesson here is that the media repeatedly hid encouraging truths from humanity once again. CO2 emissions have been on the decrease in specific nations. Yet, the people of those nations got no credit from the mainstream media and the Biden Shadow Presidency.
********************************************************************************
Let's start with the good ole USA. Per capita co2 emissions there reached their peak in 1973. Then, in 2004, the United States began its pronounced & consistent decline of per capita CO2 emissions, until 2020.
Then, in the Year 2023 ... when it was time for the Biden Shadow Presidency to think in terms of a re-election campaign ... the USA resumed its per capita CO2 emissions decline/decrease. Meanwhile, China's CO2 emissions sky rocketed into the sky, and no one objected to it happening. Such a thing is known as hypocrisy.
Keep in mind that the chart below is of the United States; NOT China.
***************************************************************************
Below: The USA's aggregate (total) annual co2 emissions have been on the decline since 2007. In sixteen years, until and including 2023, annual co2 emissions went from 6.13 billion tonnes per year to 4.91 billion tonnes.
Below: The very historic nation of Greece has also been decreasing its CO2 Emission since 2007, and more so than the United States.
***********************************************************************************Below: Neighboring Bulgaria ... a neighbor of northern Greece. It reached its height of CO2 emissions in 1987, when the CO2 output there was 91.27 million tonnes. At the end of 1992, Bulgaria's CO2 emissions were down to 57.46 million tonnes. Then, in 2023, Bulgaria's yearly CO2 emissions count dropped down to 36.09 million tonnes. Did CNN, MSNBC, the UN, or John Kerry ever report this?
***********************************************************************************
Below: Japan started its annual co2 emissions decrease in 2013.
***********************************************************************************
**********************************************************************************
Below: The Netherlands began its consistent decline in annual CO2 emissions in 2010.
Now, the Number 1 Proof which shows that co2 is NOT a pollutant is this: If co2 were a pollutant, then every time you exhale, soot would be coming out of your mouth. A human exhales 40,000 ppm of co2 every time he/she fully exhales. CO2 only exists at 425 ppm in the sky outside. This means that you exhale 95 times more co2 into your immediate air space than exists in any equally-sized sector of the sky.
More specifically, a human usually inhales only 0.042% of co2 when outdoors. But, he/she exhales 4% of it, meaning that the human body makes co2.
The fact that humans and cattle do NOT exhale soot is the sign that Climate Hysteria is founded upon a fraudulent precept. However, it took years and years of endless brain-washing to make America's school students disregard their natural observations of life and to live in terror for the rest of their lives. They are told that climate doom awaits them, unless they give all their freedom to Al Gore, Michael Mann, Bill Nye, etc.
The big "however" is that the United States' Occupational Health & Safety Administration officially declared that exposure to 5,000 ppm of co2, for 8 consecutive hours, is the "permissible exposure limit." That is a concentration of 11 to 12 times more co2 than exists outdoors today. Yet, co2 is presented as the new demon and Michael Mann is promoted as the new prophet, while Al Gore is treated as the high priest of the new Climate Religion. The straight-lined hockey stick graph is their Bible.
The problem here is that all the vegetation on Earth dies when the atmospheric co2 count goes below 150 ppm. CO2 is the bringer of photosynthesis. CO2 is the molecule of life. Yet, it's treated as the Angel of Death, Doom, & Destruction by the mainstream media. Without CO2, without chlorophyll, and without bees, we all die-off eventually. That's known as extinction.

ACGIH stands for American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Meanwhile, FSIS stands for Food Safety Inspection Service. |

*********************************************************************************
So, let's review the molecular composition of Planet Earth's atmosphere
The atmosphere of Planet Earth comprises: [1] 78.08% Nitrogen, 780,800ppm [2] 20.95% Oxygen, 209,500ppm [3] 0.934% Argon, 9,340ppm [4] 0.0425% Carbon Dioxide, 425ppm [5] Neon at 0.001818%, 18.18ppm [6] Helium at 0.000524%, 5.24ppm [7] Methane at 0.00019%, 1.9ppm [8] Krypton at 0.000114%, 1.14ppm [9] Hydrogen at 0.00005%, 0.5ppm and [10] Xenon at 0.0000087%, 0.087ppm . . . minus 0.2% to 4%, for Water Vapor. Concerning this, the 0.2% is found in Antarctica and the high elevations of the Alpines, as well as in Chile's Atacama Desert. The 4% is found in the Tropics.
At this point, do the math. The sky outside is composed of 0.0425% (co2) + 0.0002% (ch4...methane) carbon molecular compounds. This would mean that the Troposphere is 99.9578% CARBON-FREE.
BTW, Sulfur Hexaflouride is the most potent greenhouse gas, and it contains no carbon. However, it's presence in the atmosphere is 2.5 to 3 parts per TRILLION. It's alleged to be 23,500 times more potent at capturing infrared heat than is co2.
Scorecard
Now, yearly co2 emissions due to human activity has reached the 35 to 37 billion tonne mark. A certain writer whose name will politely be kept confidential stated that 40 billion tonnes of co2 per year would occupy 1,045,911 square miles of Planet Earth 9 yards high. This translates into 5,348 cubic miles.
Well, Planet Earth is 196.9 MILLION square miles in area, and the height of the Troposphere averages 7 miles. 196.9 million times 7 is 1,378,300,000 cubic miles of Tropospheric space.
Welcome to the Wide World of Mainstream Media's CONSTANT DISPROPORTIONALITY
Now, a mile is 1,760 yards in length. Seven miles is 12,320 yards in length. Thus, 12,320 yards divided by the previously mentioned "9 yards high" translates into 1,368 layers (segments-of-9-yds-each) of Troposphere.
At this point, call to mind that the unnamed writer stated that 40 billion tonnes of co2 generated per year translates into 1,045,911 square miles outward & 9 yards upward being occupied by co2.
Also call to mind that the 196.9 MILLION sq mile surface area of Planet Earth divided by the previously mentioned 1,045,911 sq mi = 188.35. Thus, Planet Earth's Troposphere is 1,045,911 sq miles, 188.35 times over. After all, 1,045,911 times 188.35 = 196,997,336 ... the square mileage of Planet Earth's surface area.
At this point multiply the 1,368 layers of Troposphere by the 188 sections of Planet Earth's surface area. 1,368 * 188 = 257,184. In fact, the previously mentioned 1,378,300,000 cubic miles divided by the previously mentioned 5,348 yearly cubic miles = 257,722.
At a yearly emission of 40 billion tonnes of co2, it will take approximately 250,000 YEARS for man-made co2 to saturate the Earth's Troposphere as much as co2 occupies the atmosphere of Venus.
Moreover, to make the Troposphere of the Earth even reach the 0.1% mark in co2 concentration, 575 ppm needs to be added. Thus, if the co2 count increased 2 to 3 ppm per year, it would take 193 to 290 years to accomplish this. That's 1/10th of one percent and nothing more, in at least 193 years.
Moreover, if the yearly increase in atmospheric CO2 rose to 4 ppm per year, then it would take 143 years for the CO2 level to reach a concentration of 1/10th of one percent.
10,000 parts per million = 1%. 1,000 ppm = 0.1%. 100 ppm = 0.01%. 425 ppm = 0.0425%.
In order to raise the co2 count to a mere 1% of the Earth's atmosphere, you would have to add 9,575 ppm of co2. Thus, if you were to add 3 ppm of co2 per year, from January 2025 onward, it would take you 3,193 years to simply raise co2 to the one percent mark.
If you were to add 4 ppm of co2 to the Earth's atmosphere yearly, it would take you 2,393 years to achieve the 1% mark. Furthermore, if only 2 ppm of CO2 would be added to the atmosphere yearly, it would take 4,787 years to reach the one percent mark. In the atmospheres of Venus and Mars, co2 stands at the 96% mark.
The lesson here is that the Climate Hysteria propaganda teams scare schoolchildren with disproportionality. The numbers used to scare children ... and to alarm their parents ... are low for a planet the size of Earth.
Here's another example: LIGHTNING: According to the United States' CDC, lightning strikes Planet Earth an average of 8 MILLION times a day & 6,000 times every minute. This could sound scary to a vulnerable schoolchild, if a propagandist is trying to frighten schoolchildren. But, it's an amount of lightning that Planet Earth can easily handle.
https://www.cdc.gov/disasters/lightning/index.html
https://weather.com/storms/severe/news/lightning-damage-trees-homes-buildings-ground-20130719
One more example involves rainfall: One inch of rainfall upon one square mile of the Earth's surface comprises 17.4 MILLION gallons of water, weighing 145 MILLION pounds. One gallon of water is 8.333 lbs. It sounds like terrifyingly high numbers, but the Earth has been handling much wider and longer rainstorms throughout the millennia. It's no problemo for the Earth. Yet, a Climate Hysteria activist would try to twist the numbers into an End of the World scenario, frightening youth in the process.
Under Joe Biden & Kamala Harris, CO2 reached its highest level in all of human history
Now, atmospheric CO2 reached its highest level in the history of humanity, in May of 2024. The reason for this is in a manufacturing and activation of the coal-fired power plants in China and India. If you wiped all of the Americas and Europe off the face of the Earth, the CO2 rate would continue to rise, on account of the coal-fired power plants. Being Draconian in America is pointless and worthless. The Biden-Harris years of the dictatorial bullying of Americans accomplished nothing good.
