That was a nice back pedal, by the way. "I should have been more specific." No, you were plenty specific. You were just wrong, and you changed your argument when it was pointed out to you.
I can use NASA for data because I am not biased. I am not a GW denier, I am someone who cares to actually look at the facts instead of blindly choosing a side and ignoring all information that disagrees. You should try that sometime. Look at all sides of an argument, and try to find the truth. Of course, it takes a little more effort than just watching Al Gore's movie, so I don't really expect you to do it.
It appears that I understand far more about thermodynamics and heat transfer than you do. Clouds actually absorb/trap more heat than they reflect back into space.
Please try to use a coherent argument based on actual science. Your emotional ramblings make you look sort of dumb. |
...then tell me the forms/modes of heat transfer in thermodynamics. And don't google.
As far as clouds and their effect on heat transfer, there's more than one analysis of their effect (stabilizing influence or positive feedback function). If you're willing to cite NASA, I'm willing to cite the Heartland Institute: clouds reflect more energy than they trap.
