Gore just got don’t bitching about global warming making us colder (I kept telling you guys The Day After Tomorrow was a documentary ) but here we are, going to block out some of the sun’s rays for the ■■■■■ and giggles of it to see what happens.
First sun-dimming experiment will test a way to cool Earth
Researchers plan to spray sunlight-reflecting particles into the stratosphere, an approach that could ultimately be used to quickly lower the planet’s temperature.
The process does not have to be wildly expensive; in a report last month, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change suggested that a fleet of high-flying aircraft could deposit enough sulfur to offset roughly 1.5 °C of warming for around $1 billion to $10 billion per year1.
If that’s cheap in their eyes I wonder what ■■■■■■■■ expensive” looks like?
This sounds like something one would read at the Onion. Meanwhile, many places have already experienced blizzards and colder than normal weather. Kansas, Iowa and other states were really hard hit.
So it is global warming, climate change, or something else? The goal posts keep getting moved.
Yes, and then later, when temps were often colder than normal, the hysteria was changed to “Climate change”. The media has a melt down when a heat wave hits in July now too, as though that is the strangest thing in the world.
I said any because it wasn’t specifically targeted at you. But is that an incorrect label? I don’t recall seeing you in any of Pruitt threads.
Anyway. You know your article is about an experiment, eh? A first? A couple hundred grams of powder? That isn’t going to cost $1-10billion.
So your quote of the article:
The process does not have to be wildly expensive; in a report last month, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change suggested that a fleet of high-flying aircraft could deposit enough sulfur to offset roughly 1.5 °C of warming for around $1 billion to $10 billion per year1.
is itself a quote from a study done by Intergovernmental Panelon Climate change.
The intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is an intergovernmental body of the United Nations, dedicated to providing the world with an objective, scientific view of climate change and its political and economic impacts. Wikipedia
So your quote is talking in the context of a united nation’s think tank’s brainstorming of a theoretical global program that operated across both hemispheres and had an effect across the globe.
The reason why $1-10billion committed by the globe is cheap as hell in that theoretical global program…is because it is. On top of that you have to look at what the comparative losses would be if the earth warmed 1.5 Celsius.
Well I was sure glad to not be in Kansas or Iowa on Sunday and Monday. They probably would have believed they were in an ice age, and maybe would have welcomed some global warming.
