Global warming err Climate change HOAX

[DC Tom]

Nye also needs to clarify one of his points. He stated that as the oceans warm, they expand. That is not true. Water expands as it cools and contracts as it warms. The only thing he could have been referring to is the melting of polar or glacial ice, but he should make that distinction if he is going to argue from the scientific perspective.

Water contracts as you warm it...until it hits 39 degrees farenheit. Then it starts expanding.

 

Water is a very weird material.

That was a real show?! Good grief, I thought Captain Kangaroo was bad.

Hey, Zoom was an awesome show! When I was three.

So water expands at and above 39 degrees, and also at and below 32 degrees, but contracts from 33 to 38 degrees?

So was Bill Nye the Science Guy.

Zoom was actually a pretty good educational show. Sesame Street for pre-teens. I used to watch it in 5th grade. I mean, it wasn't quite HR Puff-n-Stuff, but for an educational show it was groovy in a happenin' kind of way.

BILL NYE’S EMBARRASSING FACE-OFF WITH TUCKER CARLSON ON CLIMATE CHANGE — It didn’t end well for the ‘Science Guy:’

 

 

Now usually when these charges are made by someone who purports to possess expertise in climate science (Nye has a degree in mechanical engineering), the interviewer acquiesces, immediately surrendering the debate to the climate activist. But Carlson wouldn’t back down: “To what degree is climate change caused by human activity? . . . Is it 100 percent, is it 74.3 percent? If it’s settled science, please tell us to what degree human activity is responsible.”

* * * * * * * * *

While it’s easy to dismiss Nye’s interview as a kooky one-off appearance from an unprepared celebrity scientist, he sa

dly represents the lack of integrity by most climate-change pushers. They move goalposts, manufacture facts, resist honest debate, and resort to smear tactics when confronted with specific questions they cannot answer.

 

As Carlson said to Nye, “You really don’t know, and you bully people who ask questions.” Good thing Carlson is there to bully back for once.

I can't think of any educational children's shows from back when I was little. Sesame street didn't debut until I was almost twelve years old. The only thing that comes to mind is Otto the Auto:

DC TOM,

 

I Know you've given your reasons and explanations to this before, but could you please provide it again as to why it is nearly impossible to consider these climate science studies to be infallible? I believe you had alluded to scientific methodology?

[DC Tom]

 

So water expands at and above 39 degrees, and also at and below 32 degrees, but contracts from 33 to 38 degrees?

 

As water cools, at standard pressure:

It contracts until you hit 39 degrees. At that point, it's at it's highest density (1g/cc).

Below 39 degrees, it expands.

At 32 degrees, it freezes. Ice is, of course, less dense than water.

Below 32 degrees, ice contracts.

 

See chart. The maximum density of water is at 39 degrees (about 4C).

That's fascinating. Honestly - I had no idea that water had those characteristics. I knew that it expanded as it froze, and assumed therefore that as it warmed, it contracted.

Half a semester of graduate statistical mechanics is dedicated to studying water's phases. It's a wacky material. Seriously, there's an instant Nobel Prize waiting for anyone who can explain how water freezes - it's one of the least understood phase changes in all of physics. We actually understand liquid helium better than we do water...and liquid helium flows up and out of dewars.

oh wait.............A cryogenic storage dewar is a specialised type of vacuum flask used for storing cryogens (such as liquid nitrogen or liquid helium),

 

 

Nevermind.

Does not mean that they think man is to blame.

 

I believe in climate change but not that man is making it happen.

 

As soon as you and Bill Nye can tell me how much of the change is man made I will believe it.

That is for fresh water. This is for sea water.

Yes, the ocean's not an ideal system. Therefore, according to physics, oceanographers can !@#$ right off.

ENVIRONMENTALISTS USE PHOTOSHOP AND FRAUD TO DECEIVE

 

Watts Up With That has a funny instance of warmist deception.

 

{snip}

 

Now we get to the really fun part: the photo that accompanied the alarmist MSN article:

It is fun to trace the provenance of the photoshopped penguins. Before that photo was on MSN, it was published by the Christian Science Monitor in June 2016. But it originated with Reuters.

On Google Images, we find that it was published by Reuters on January 1, 2010, so it had nothing to do with any alleged warm spell at Base Esperanza in 2017. The caption says:

Two Adelie penguins stand atop a block of melting ice on a rocky shoreline at Cape Denison, Commonwealth Bay, in East Antarctica January 1, 2010.

That is not, as noted, a “block of melting ice.” And Cape Denison is over by Australia, thousands of miles from the site of the allegedly alarming global warming at Camp Esperanza. The photoshopping apparently dates back to the original Reuters photo, something that the folks at Reuters should look into.

Global warming “science” is a joke. It isn’t science, it is pure politics. And photoshopping is, sadly, the least of the alarmists’ sins.
