Bowers. The other point is that the gradual increase in solar luminosity means that C02 levels are not directly comparable over hundreds of millions of years. See http://www.skepticalscience.com/co2-higher-in-past.htm for a good summary of our understanding of this topic. (And by "our" I mean scientists who work in this field.

No problem. The atmos...Dr. Jay Cadbury, phd.<br /><br />@Eli<br /><br />No problem. The atmospheric concentration of CO2 has been gradually decreasing from a concentration of 7000 ppm 530 million years ago. In fact, only the Carboniferous Period and our present age, the Quaternary Period, have witnessed CO2 levels less than 400 ppm.<br /><br />Now, Eli, I'm not saying that we should try to increase atmospheric co2 to 7,000 ppm. I do think though that our atmosphere can handle around 2,000 ppm of atmospheric co2 with no trouble. And I might be wrong but I think it is important to note the historic averages. Aren't you essentially betting on the averages anyway? I mean, you're predicting a temperature increase, that would fit the pattern of average temperatures.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-34012567145758594582011-08-04T11:17:10.906-04:002011-08-04T11:17:10.906-04:00Shouldn't number 5 really include video of Bri...Shouldn't number 5 really include video of Britney Spears collapsing on stage?Horatio Algeranonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988805467080448954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-63491568216589995862011-08-04T11:16:31.630-04:002011-08-04T11:16:31.630-04:00Color me Poed.Color me Poed.badger badger badgerhttp://badgerbadgerbadger.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-54825953237013550902011-08-04T10:40:36.120-04:002011-08-04T10:40:36.120-04:00Indeed, a 1 degree rise in average temperature wou...Indeed, a 1 degree rise in average temperature would transform Pittsburgh into Philadelphia- O the humanity!- and many places into places like places 90 miles south of most places.<br /><br />7 degrees is too horrible to contemplate, as Somalia has already arrived there, and Somalians seem to like it that wayTHE CLIMATE WARShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02578106673226403151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-44287693397993533072011-08-04T09:46:00.040-04:002011-08-04T09:46:00.040-04:00I got this on DVD a couple of years ago.
