The global Marxist politician-run U.N. IPCC/WEF octopus of anti-Big Oil leftists is trying to eat the world by weaponizing the fake greenhouse effect. Global warming is good not bad, and more not less CO2 and H20 need to be pumped into the atmosphere to create more living space and food supplies.

Atmospheric Fingerprint - Andy May
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2022/03/27/atmospheric-fingerprint/
My reply:
[[Cooling of the stratosphere, due to a higher concentration of CO2, is logical. CO2 is a major radiator of thermal radiation in the stratosphere, and more of it should cool that layer. Likewise, if the intensity of solar radiation increased, oxygen and ozone in the stratosphere would absorb more UV (ultraviolet) radiation, which should warm the stratosphere, not cool it.]]
CO2 radiation cools the stratosphere? Is that like Mister Freeze's freeze ray? What comic book universe did that physics come from?
When will the IPCC greenhouse gas warming hoax be laughed off by this blog? Every thing they do to give it credibility is an atrocity. CO2's 15 micron -80C radiation can't melt an ice cube.

Basic Climate Physics #10
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2022/03/24/basic-climate-physics-10/
My reply:
Why does WUWT keep publishing nonsense from the old school of climate science that pretends to criticize the IPCC CO2-driven global warming hoax but actually protects it with such convoluted gobbledy-gook that nobody can understand what they're saying?
It's always been so easy to prove that all greenhouse gas theories are dead wrong because they deny the existence or efficacy of Nature's ironclad Second Law of Thermodynamics (Entropy).
- All coalesced (liquid, solid) bodies are good Planck black body radiators, which absorb and emit radiation at all wavelengths. In the Earth climate system, the main black bodies are the surfaces of the Sun and Earth. No gas can ever a black body because the gas molecules are forever bouncing around against each other and can only share heat energy via contact and conduction. They never absorb or emit radiation except if they're polar (have electric dipoles) and then only one photon at a time at certain wavelengths in their electrons depending on their dipole structure. CO2, H2O, and CH4 are polar, and the IPCC claims that they're "greenhouse gases" and wants us to fear them.
- For a black body B to reach a certain temperature T, it has to absorb heat energy sufficient to raise its temperature to T based on its heat capacity of so many degrees C per Joule. The black body A whose radiation is heating B must have a temperature equal to or greater than T, because of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which says that no heat energy can be transferred from body A to B unless the temperature of A is greater than the temperature of B, else there is no energy transfer. That's why nobody has patented a dry ice-powered microwave oven that can cook a turkey.
- All along the way the black body attempts to cool itself by combining its energy modes via the Boltzmann distribution and emitting radiation out of its surfaces along a power-wavelength curve based solely on T and always constrained to increase entropy maximally for the given internal energy. The S-B Law is just the Planck black body radiation law integrated over all wavelengths, showing that the total power rises as T^4, which is what they call color temperature (change in color of an iron rod stuck into a fire). In contrast, the total radiant energy capability of atmospheric gases is trifling compared to black bodies, because photon-by-photon absorption/emission that's not even dependent on atmospheric temperature can't touch the T^4 power law for black bodies.
- Only radiant energy from the 5500C Sun reaches Earth's surface and slowly heats it up while it keeps trying to cool via Planck black body radiation, conduction/convection, and evaporation. Usual maximum Earth surface temperatures rarely exceed 50C, so because of entropy the total surface radiation energy is a fraction of the original absorbed solar energy, and gets worse the hotter the surface gets because entropy dispersion loss rises as T^3.
- Now what does the IPCC claim? That a tiny fraction of this surface radiation energy if turned back can reheat the surface with its own heat, and even make it reach a higher temperature than the Sun gave it. Here's where the IPCC liars start their deception play, by claiming that the S-B Law can be inverted, so that the total power from a black body at temperature T can restore that temperature if returned, when it has already experienced irreversible loss due to entropy dispersion.
- Greenhouse gases are all a bald-faced lie. Even if they returned 100% of surface energy to the surface, it wouldn't even begin to return to the original temperature the Sun gave it, and not even stop it from cooling until it reached the ambient temperature, no different than an Obama blanket placed on a warm corpse If the corpse is the whole Earth after the Sun went dead, it would eventually cool to the near-zero temperature of space even if Earth's atmosphere were 100% CO2. The IPCC wants you to believe that heat grows on trees, and if the evil capitalist pigs who own Big Oil keep emitting CO2, the Earth is headed for runaway global warming, even pretending to scientifically calculate a nonphysical "equilibrium climate sensitivity" (ECS) of so many degrees C global temperature rise per doubling of CO2 concentration, always with no calibration for zero CO2 concentration because it's not physical, only political, kaching! It's all lies tha are trying to deny Nature's ironclad Second Law of you know what for political gain. ECS is ZERO for all CO2 concentrations.
- All other seemingly learned complications introduced by both sides are moose hockey that can't get around this fundamental problem that the CO2 dog won't hunt. Imagine the hordes of useful idiots they've manufactured to go for the brass ring.
Instead of publishing rehashes of this old school nonsense that overcomplicates the simple, WUWT should be publishing and constantly promoting my killer disproof of the IPCC's greenhouse gas warming theories until the public laughs it out of existence. The truth that will set people free is that the emperor has no clothes, it's not complicated, it's so simple that even a 5th grader can grasp it.
How many hundred million pageviews does WUWT have? Sometimes I suspect it's a false flag op owned by the IPCC. It's sure been doing them yeoman service by pretending to be independent critics who never go in for the kill but seem to be staging an endless diversion play of trying to calculate the number of angels that fit on the head of a pin to keep the big bucks the IPCC demands rolling in.
Here's my killer disproof, that is begging for a fatcat who can get it into the hands of every educated person (h.s. grad?) in the Western world:
Why Are Greenhouse Gas Theories Dead Wrong?, by T.L. Winslow (TLW), "The Historyscoper"™
Why would anybody want to finance that? To save the world from a preventable disaster. How many times do I have to publicize this demand of the IPCC for not trillions but hundreds of trillions of dollars to save us from their own hoax? Every one of those dollars would be a boondoggle. These are desperate times and require desperate measures.

How Accurate is Berkeley Earth Temperature Data? Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach Reprinted from the original at WattsUpWithThat by permission of the author. I got to thinking about the Berkeley Earth global temperature dataset. So I got their gridded file “Monthly Land + Ocean Average Temperature with Air Temperatures at Sea Ice” covering 1850 to 2021 and took a look at it. I started at the first month’s data, January 1850 … and my jaw hit the floor.

Forget Fusion, The Future Of Energy Is Already Here. And it lies far beneath your feet. For decades nuclear fusion has been heralded as the future of energy with its compact size, powerful output, zero emissions and zero radioactive waste (in theory). But it has remained elusive. Even with recent developments it could still be several decades until wide-spread fusion power is available.

Carbon Dioxide Is Life, Not A Pollutant
https://naturalgasnow.org/carbon-dioxide-is-life-not-a-pollutant/
My reply:
[[It is accepted by experts on both sides of the issue that carbon dioxide retains small amounts of solar radiation — heat — that otherwise would escape into outer space.]]
Zonk! The lie that never die pops up again.
Atmospheric CO2 molecules only absorb infrared radiation photons from Earth's surface at one wavelength, 15 microns, and almost immediately reemits them, leaving them at the same temperature.
The radiation itself is not heat! It's the same emitted by an iron rod chilled to -80C, colder than dry ice. It's closer to microwave, and has no heating power on Earth's surface unless it's already at or below -80C.It just bounces around heating nothing until entropy harmlessly disperses it.
It's time everybody gave up this hoax and started laughing at the U.N. IPCC octopus that still pushes it.

Infrared Forcing by Greenhouse Gases
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2022/03/07/infrared-forcing-by-greenhouse-gases/
My reply:
[[This paper has been written for readers with a strong background in quantitative sciences, who know little about radiation transfer in Earth’s atmosphere. So we include material that is common knowledge to a small number of experts, but little known to the larger scientiļ¬c community.]]
Whew! Get me some 2x strength Febreze spray!
The lie that never dies rears its ugly head again, this time spread by professional physicists who should have known better and led the fight against it for years.
CO2 and other "greenhouse gases" aren't real. They're a fake physics hoax pushed by the global Marxist politician-run U.N. IPCC as part of their long war to destroy capitalism and economic growth and burn down the West so they can build their Marxist utopia on its ashes. It was never about science, but about hijacking science for political gain. Less than a week ago WUWT republished a great article by Lord Monckton exposing the global Communist conspiracy to spread it. Did anybody read it?
It's sick that so many physicists are so weak at the basics of thermal physics that they had a cakewalk with the older ones who could have stopped them like these two, and after taking over academia, no problem miseducating youngsters who have to learn their catechism to advance academically, like an established Church propagating the geocentric theory from generation to generation.
What a bait and switch that the authors fell for. It's not about "radiation transfer in Earth's atmosphere", it's about Nature's ironclad Second Law of Thermodynamics AKA Entropy, which makes it impossible for any gas in Earth's atmosphere to reheat Earth's surface with its own heat, which came only from solar radiation.
To say that atmospheric CO2, H2O, or CH4 cause global surface temperatures to rise even one iota is like saying that some woman is a little pregnant. Nature is being mocked by Marxists using science as a mask, and the rest is moose hockey.
I've spent years broadcasting from my miserable soapbox on the Web how easy it is to disprove the IPCC's greenhouse gas warming hoax, but since I spent most of my life studying thermal physics I can't be sure what's obvious to others and what isn't. I already listed the url with my killer bullet disproof here on WUWT in the comments section and got little response. It's sad that WUWT doesn't wake up and recognize my article and make it a feature article with a prominent link to it on every page permanently, and help me find a billionaire who can make a copy available to every person in the fossil fuel-using West to stop all the IPCC's insidious plans to ruin our future before they do real damage.
Since WUWT readers know more thermal physics than most, here's my most simple concentrated disproof of "greenhouse gas warming":
- The Earth is an almost perfect Planck black body, meaning that it absorbs and emits radiation at all wavelengths, with the absorbed radiation raising its temperature depending on heat capacity, and the emitted radiation having a displaced peak at a far lower temperature than the Sun's, with a shape constrained by the Second Law of Thermodynamics to maximize entropy dispersion while cooling it back down. The thermal energy lost to entropy dispersion is also called exergy, which a Google search is mentioned in one 5-year-old WUWT article: Exergy and Power Plants – Watts Up With That?
- Let's say the Earth's atmosphere were the most perfect concentrated thick greenhouse gas imaginable, absorbing and reemitting 100% of Earth surface energy perfectly back to the surface. Guess what?
- The temperature achieved via solar radiation couldn't be raised ONE IOTA, because the emitted surface energy is way less than the original solar energy. In short, no atmosphere can turn the Earth into a perpetual motion machine that can even keep the surface as warm as the Sun made it. Rather, if the Sun went dead it would inevitably cool down to outer space temperature, leaving the Earth another cold rock in space.
- So why even waste one iota of your time on greenhouse gas climate physics? It's as much junk as flat Earth astronomy.
We're all adults here, so why keep this killer knowledge as an in-joke? We need to find a deep pockets billionaire who will peel off a billion or two to educate the masses regardless of all efforts of the U.N.-Big Teach, er, Big Tech cabal to prevent it. Then hopefully the masses will throw off their yokes and laugh at the emperor's new clothes and force them to disband and give the money back. Too bad that billionaire Bill Gates dropped out of college before he could even get to senior level courses on physics or else he could have done all this work for me and I could have used the time to solve other big world class problems.
