I thought this was funny. And, it seems to be all the rage, so I figured I’d make fun as well……
Batshit crazy uncle Joe Romm (we all have one that’s like him, don’t we?) Says,
Yes, Deniers And Confusionists, The IEA And Others Warn Of Some 11°F Warming by 2100 If We Keep Listening To You
I hadn’t realized that the Confusionists and Deniers had formed an alliance, but, they seem like a formidable team! Together, they have the magical ability to warm the planet! But, only if Romm and team listen to them! It isn’t known yet, but rumor has it that the confusionists are the ones with the real warming powers. Apparently they’ve 20X’s the magical warming powers of CO2!!!
One of Romm’s followers attempted to place a curse on the Confusionists hoping they’d burn in hell, but clearly with warming powers such as they have, hell would be afraid of these magical beings!
Breaking News Update! It’s rumored that skeptics will soon team up with this already formidable alliance and march under the banner of either the skeptics or newly revealed confusionists!!!
For The Horde!!!
Awesome.
Thanks! I was going to blog about IR spectrum broadening and planetary temps, but it was dumber than Romm…. (and I can’t copy from the pdf.) so I thought I’d go with this! 😀
Yeah, I’m pretty sure there’s no horde for IR.
But finding something that’s dumber than Romm…?
That’s why you get the babes. 😆
I caught IR from a horde once. What you need are good-quality antibiotics.
😆
Lol, yeh, well…. something like that! The damn security on the paper won’t let me copy from it, so I’d have to type a couple of pages and I’m about to work on my second 12 pack….. N2 can be a GHG?
Well, theoretically any gas that isn’t perfectly transparent to electromagnetic radiation (& that is also capable of emitting photons (& thus above 0°K)) should work as a GHG, by their weird rules. So yeah, why not?
Stark, I confess to having limited knowledge in this field, but N2 would be a homo-nuclear diatomic molecule. In other words, it would be non-polar. For molecules to release energy, they must have a “dipole moment”. How does a non-polar molecule have a dipole moment?
I don’t think that’s so, & in any case CO2 = 0 dipole.
Just going by what they’re saying…..
“In order for a vibrational mode in a molecule to be “IR active,” it must be associated with changes in the dipole. A permanent dipole is not necessary, as the rule requires only a change in dipole moment.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_spectroscopy
Right, but AFIK, your molecule doesn’t need to release its energy in the form of infrared photons to increase the energy of the system.
Of course, we’re getting a bit far down the ol’ rabbit hole at this point.
Funny post by Crazy Uncle joe. Wiggles for pages on end to explain where the 2050 comes from… they just make it up as they go along and only when called out on it they retract a little… SOP for the IPCC and its many shills.
lol, the confusionists made him crazy! But, yeh…. that numb nut couldn’t think before he blathered. Funny stuff.
That baby looks…really really ticked 🙂
[ kinda creepy ]
lol, a confusionist horde baby!!!! I’m told temps rise 5°C upon hearing just one cry from it!!!
