Struth, Hasbeen, your hypocrisy is astounding!

WTF did you think cause ocean currents in the first place?
I suggest you read http://earth.usc.edu/~stott/Catalina/Oceans.html rather than mocking what you don't understand!

Meanwhile I see you've failed to find a more plausible explanation than "King Neptune's Paddle" for how CO2 supposedly keeps water vapour out of the atmosphere. In fairness, though, that's probably because there isn't one.

What will it take for you to accept that the effect of CO2 is amplified by the heating it causes increasing the amount of water vapour in the atmosphere?

Earth’s atmosphere contains 400 ppm CO2 (0.04%). Mars has a 950,000 ppm (95%) CO2 atmosphere. But Mars has surface temperatures that are about -75°C colder on average than Earth’s because atmospheric density, or pressure, is the “game changer” largely determining planetary temperatures.

Try that one Aidan, Try to talk enough bull dust about that to counter facts.

One more little fact for you aidan, The temperature of a planet depends on atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric density, or pressure, is the “big game changer”

Mars’ thin atmospheric density, or pressure (AP), reaches just 0.006 bar. Earth’s AP is 1 bar. The AP for Venus is 92 bar.

Interestingly, on the summit of Venus’s Maxwell Montes the AP [atmospheric pressure] drops from 92 bar to 45 bar. In turn, the surface temperature plummets by -82°C even though the CO2 concentration (96%) is the same at both locations

Hasbeen,
I'm not sure what your point is there. The link between pressure and temperature is very well known. High school students learn the reason for it in physics, and the effects of it in geography.

I wil point out, though, that pressure is not the only reason why Venus is hot and Mars is cold. Their distance from the sun also has a lot to do with it.

Unlike you, I'm not trying to counter facts. What I'm trying to counter is wild claims that run contrary to the facts.

BTW your claim about Earth's atmosphere containing 400ppm CO2 is already out of date. It's now about 415ppm. How high does it have to go before you stop pretending it's unrelated to the observed rise in temperature?

Aidan,
Not In Australia if one goes by the latest figures ! Teachers here want a bigger slice of the profits from polluting industries before considering of providing better education. One of the main reasons for the Climate change debacle is the poor standard of education of our drug-saturated students !

individual,
Why did you outsource your thinking to the Murdoch Press?
