It’s really humorous when an attempt to validate anthropogenic global warming “theory” actually damages said theory
A giant white kangaroo bounced into the science books on Tuesday as part of a global experiment to measure the amount of light the Earth reflects back to the sun.
The cardboard cut-out marsupial, which measures 32 metres (105 feet) by 18 metres, was laid out in a paddock on the grounds of Monash University in the southern city of Melbourne.
“We call it our kangaroo from space because two satellites flew over (and) what they were doing was measuring the amount of light reflected from our kangaroo,” Professor Patricia Vickers-Rich told AFP.
Well, you know, duh! That is the way it works. Light from the Sun, that big ball of nuclear fire that climahysterics say has nothing to do with global warming, streams in, hits the clouds and ground, and some of it reflects back to space. And, since the Sun has higher and lower outputs, sometimes more comes in, sometimes less. Of course, the point they are trying to make is that the light streams in, and then is trapped by the only greenhouse gas they believe in, C02, while mostly ignoring water vapor and methane.
“And the point of that was to make people aware that reflected light, or lack of reflected light, has a very big effect on climate.”
Which tends to prove natural global warming, rather then anthropogenic. Now, one interesting part that the climahysterics avoid discussion of is the urban island effect, which is about man made structures causing higher local temperatures.
Consider blacktop. What does it do? It holds heat. Roads crisscross the world. So, localized temps can be higher then they would be if there was just ground there. But, you do not hear climahysterics calling for the destruction of blacktop, because, how else would they get places in their fuel inefficient vehicles and private jets?
(input my normal discourse regarding what effects Man actually has here. I ain’t typing it all yet again.)
In other amusing global warming news, it now causes an increase in kidney stones. I have my own theory: all the water from those tons of bottled waters (bad for landfills, BTW) is causing people to have to make a sissy more often, causing dehydration (which tends to cause kidney stones)Â in the kidneys, is the cause of the increase. Now, just like Darwin, I will say, prove me wrong!
Sean Hannity names some of the worst Climahypocrites.
