Global Warming/Climate Change is a bad religion.

Conservatives shoot themselves in the foot while it is still in their mouth.

I get tired of posting this:

Do you still have to pay for electricity and gasoline?

Not us, we invested in a solar system and electric cars and have lived and driven with free electricity for eight years now.

The PV solar system paid back in three years in gasoline savings alone.

“The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.”

― Neil DeGrasse Tyson

Believe = religion

Think = opinion

Know = science

What I know follows.

What do you know that’s different?

Published (SubStack, X, MSN, YouTube, PAPundits, et. al.)

Peer reviewed (the world)

Undisputed (so far)

ISR at ToA = 1,368 W/m^2.

From the Sun’s perspective Earth is a flat, discular, pin head.

To average that discular energy over a spherical surface divide by 4.

(disc = π r^2, sphere = 4 π r^2)

1,368/4=342.

(Not even close to how the Earth heats & cools + this is Fourier’s model which even Pierrehumbert says is no good.)

Deduct 30% albedo.

(Clouds, ice, snow created by GHE/water vapor.)

342*(1.0-0.3)=240.

Deduct 80 due to atmospheric absorption.

(If this were so ToA would be warmer than surface.)

Net/net of 160 arrives at surface.

Per LoT 1 160 is ALL!! that can leave.

17 sensible + 80 latent + 63 LWIR (by remaining diff) = 160

Balance is closed, done, over, fini, “Ttthhhat’s ALL folks!!”

So where does this 396 second source of surface upwelling heat flow come from?

396 is the S-B BB calculation for any surface at 16 C, 289 K, that serves as the denominator of the emissivity ratio: 63/396=0.16.

It is a theoretical calculation.

It is not real.

It is a duplicate “extra.”

It violates LoT 1.

396 up – 2nd 63 LWIR (How convenient.) = 333 “back” from cold to hot w/o work violating LoT 2.

Not that it matters.

Erase the 396/333/63 GHE “extra” energy loop from the graphic and the balance holds true.

IR instruments do not measure power flux, they are calibrated to report a referenced temperature and infer power flux assuming the target is a BB. (Read the manual.)

16 C + BB = 396 & incorrect.

16 C + 0.16 = 63 & correct.

There is no GHE.

There is no GHG warming.

There is no CAGW,

The consensus is wrong – Aahhgain!!!

Disagree?

Bring science which is not - appeals to authority, off topic esoteric Wiki handwavium and ad hominem gaslighting and insults.

Many people say ionosphere heaters can manipulate the jet stream. Is this true?
