SPQR, individual, I think everybody realises that climate change is happening over large time frames. The difference being that the level of human created carbon dioxide is about 130 plus times greater now than it had been millions of years ago. It is possible to differentiate the CO2 derived from fossil fuels compared to other sources. If you don't agree please show the relevant science.

If you feel that we are witnessing normal climate change you might try for the $10,000. But telling a physicist about the characteristics of CO2 would be like telling cricketer Sachin Tendulkar how to bat.

Ant,

<<if you feel that we are witnessing normal climate change you might try for the $10,000...>>

LOL

$10,000 does not demonstrate a high degree of confidence!

$10,000 in todays world is chicken feed. If your physicist friend was really confident he's bet his huge retirement super, his house, his car and even his wife-- then the bet might be worth taking up!

The $10,000 is being offered by an individual SPQR, quite an amount really. I guess your really saying you cannot meet the challenge.

Here is a short clip showing how CO2 takes up heat.

DEAR ANT BRAIN..HEAT RISES,,can you comprehend that/so heat dont sink[get it yet]

MUST TAX CARBON
FORGET FACTS..SCIENCE LIES

Decades after rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations was blamed on the industrial revolution, scientists discovered geological regions of volcanic activity on the ocean floor that emit – among other things – methane and carbon dioxide.

Even as vast new sources of greenhouse gas emissions were being discovered from within the ocean, the politics of Global Warming to blame “consumers” had already been decided.

In 1977, scientists diving in the submersible Alvin made a stunning discovery on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean: vents pouring hot, mineral-rich fluids from beneath the seafloor. In addition, they also found the vents were inhabited by previously unknown organisms that thrived in the absence of sunlight. These discoveries forever changed our understanding of Earth and life on it.

NEW SCIENTIST:

“The true extent to which the ocean bed is dotted with volcanoes has been revealed by researchers who have counted 201,055 underwater cones. This is over 10 times more than have been found before. The team estimates that in total there could be about 3 million submarine volcanoes, 39,000 of which rise more than 1000 metres over the sea bed.”

Commercial mining of Hydrothermal Vents and more aggressive oil drilling techniques deeper into magma regions adds additional risk that CO2 and/or methane (natural gas) will find its way into the atmosphere.

You're acting more like a worm -- trying to wriggling out of it --than an Ant.

I'm betting that $10,000 is only a tiny,tiny fraction of this "individuals" assets.And the advertising/publicity alone he is getting from the stunt must be worth at least $10,000.

If he was really confident why is he not tabling his super,his house, his car etc?
