    ERBE shows increasing outgoing LWR in line with increasing surface temperatures. What does that say to you?

      Ah, so which 'Earth' in 'Earth Radiation Budget Experiment' do you think it refers to? :)

      A single experiment is not enough to "prove" that CAGW is not real. Knowing you, it is a biased and cherry-picked piece of text, funded by some large corporation :)

        It's just a lot of pictures with no context, so it says nothing to me.

          If it is reporting, it is biased. And if it is a Hollywood-movie, the bad guys are Russian, with a "Poeshkin" as the leader, or they're arabs. In what era did we have news that was only based on facts?

          I cannot honestly say if we ever had an era of unbiased reporting but I'm not 200 years old and read it all to know either.

            I would love to discuss that subject but first we have to agree on a definition of "Global Warming" before a productive discussion of the subject can commence.

              I can. Everything written down was written by biased men, because we are. We have had "education" to offset that.

                What boggles me is that some reporters and media pundits rave about certain facts and then completely ignore or even dispute other facts. You cannot cherry pick which facts you want to believe. If scientifically proven facts go against your beliefs or personal narrative, than perhaps your beliefs are wrong and you need to admit that.

                      Well, there are things that we know for certain. 1. The mean yearly temperature of the atmosphere has been increasing over the last two decades. 2. The mean yearly temperature of ocean surface water has been increasing over the last two decades. Those are the facts. Everything else is speculation.

                          It is our third heat wave here (usually we get one). In 2015, golf courses re-open on Dec. 24, a thing never saw before. I don't know if GW exists, but there sure are more evidence for it than the existence of God.

                                      This one is. It shows an increase in out going long wave radiation as the surface warmed. This means the warming at the surface is not coming from retained long wave radiation, the mechanism by which the greenhouse works. Energy in = Energy out + Energy stored. The sole energy source is the sun. If Energy out and Energy stored (surface temp) have gone up, then it can only have come from the sun. ( Disclaimer: This doesnt mean that CO2 isnt a GH gas, and doesnt mean mankind has had some effect on temperature)

                                        Do you understand what it shows? ERBE shows increasing out going long wave radiation in line with time (and an increase in surface temperatures) Climate models propose that the surface is warmed because CO2 traps long wave radiation resulting in a reduction in out going long wave. ERBE shows climate models are wrong, and that since the sun is the sole energy source, the warming must have come from an equal increase in incoming solar radiation.
