BOING AND WOW EXPLAIN CLIMATE CHANGE

I was looking at a Liar-for-Hire website that purports to refute the notion of global climate change.

As an aside, the median wavelength the sun does emit is green. The same site also said it doe not matter if the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is doubled, because that does not increase the amount of infrared radiation it absorbs. It just absorbs the same amount in half the distance, with no change in temperature.

THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE

A couple of recent news articles have helped me to see the bright side of poisoning the biosphere.
A border dispute between India and Bangladesh has been resolved by rising ocean levels. A small island called South Talpatti Island (in Bangladesh) has disappeared beneath the waves. It used to be just south of the Hariabhanga river, if you want to check your older maps. This significant contribution to world peace may be just the start of the goodness to come.

32,000 leading scientists signed a petition against global warming? Is that really true? Well, no.... But to get to the bottom of this crock , we'll have to go back in history, and meet someone who really was, at one time, a leading scientist.

Yes, the decade of disco, kung fu, and watergate

Because in the 70's, Deniers will tell you, All climate scientists believed an ice age was coming. Those crazy climate scientists! Why can't they make up their minds?

But is that really true? Maybe a little historical perspective is in order.
