re: #148 b_sharp

catmann must be as stupid as Novak, and I was totally wrong.

Well he is certainly astonishingly stupid. I have been going through his links:

Here is a gem:

The claim that humans put 30% of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is fraud for many reasons. The claim is based on ice core measurements which are in conflict with direct measurements.

Now of course, there is no way he could trouble himself to look st the direct measurements or take the time to support his statements. To any domgmatist, the state of the universe is taken on his word alone. What else is needed he thinks. He said so, so sayeth the shepherd, so sayeth the flock. Who needs data?

There can be no more intense assault on science than this.

So what does the data and the evidence actually say?

Well here are some direct measurements of CO2

When you actually look at the atmosphere directly using optical means, you see the rise in CO2 quite strikingly.
