A comparison between reality and the predictions of global warming scientists from 1988 reveals an epic fail.
The uncertainty of science: A comparison between reality and the predictions of global warming scientists from 1988 reveals an epic fail.
Look especially at the charts at the link. While carbon dioxide emissions increased at a higher rate than predicted, the global temperature — predicted to increase from 2 to 5 degrees Fahrenheit — has instead remained completely flat.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

While air temperature may be uncorrelated with CO2 content, it is clear there is a correlation between coal power produced, pollution, and ultimately life expectancy of those who live with a high level of pollution. Those living in some parts (think Beijing) of china face a life expectancy 5 years below west when only air pollution is taken into account, and even less when water pollution is factored in. Chinese CO2 production has soared by 500 % in the past 30 years and no amount of EPA rules limiting US coal plants will have much affect on the total global CO2 emissions. According to wiki for CO2 emissions, 82% of CO2 is produced outside US borders, and raising energy prices by eliminating coal and nuclear will only drive more jobs to low cost producers such as china and thus speed up the rate of CO2 increase. If the liberals really want to do something useful, perhaps they could (think google, facebook, etc) donate advanced coal pollution scrubbers to help keep mercury out of the food chain.
That coal contributes to air pollution is a completely different issue than the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. CO2 is not air pollution and causes no health issues of any note.
It is important to make this distinction because trying to limit CO2 is not necessarily going to solve your air pollution problem. Better to focus on the aerosols, sulfur, soot (which is not CO2), etc., that actually contribute to air pollution.
Yes, the issue should be pollution in all of its forms, but CO2 being specifically identified as a “hot house gas” is purely a political tool that covers everyone doing anything, everywhere and because it is quantifiable it is theoretically taxable.
