Even on a frozen planet, H2O would be much more abundant than CO2, and H2O also absorbs a much wider spectrum of LW radiation. | misrepresentation | 2.3.4 | CARDS |
Carbon dioxide has continued to rise, while global temperatures appear to have stopped rising in 1998 having stabilized below the 1998 level and might even now be starting to fall. | cherry picking | 1.4 | CARDS |

What all these papers argue in their different ways is that the alarmist version of global warming aka Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming (CAGW) is a fake artefact. | ad hominem | 5.2 | jintrain |
Get that my fellow Skeptics? CO2 causes Global Cooling. This is the high ground this is the ground from which we should be fighting, not in the swamps of positive and negative feed backs. | misrepresentation | 2.3 | CARDS |
“CO2 is certainly a heat-trapping greenhouse gas, but hardly the primary one: Water vapor accounts for about 95 percent of greenhouse gases. By contrast, carbon dioxide is only a trace component in the atmosphere: about 400 ppm (parts per million), or 0.04 percent.” | misrepresentation | 2.3.4 | Alhindi_train |

“Whereas in 2008 most of the ice was extremely thin, this year most has been at least two metres thick.” | cherry picking | 1.1.3 | Alhindi_train |
That's certainly interesting, but hardly earth-shaking. Ice cores and fossil pollen show the earth has had six major global warmings since the last Ice Age, interspersed with centuries-long cold periods. The earth's temperatures are always cycling up and down. | single cause | 2.1.4 | CARDS |
It is now six months since I reported on what even environmentalists are calling "the biggest environmental scandal in history". Indeed this is a scam so glaringly bizarre that even the UN and the EU have belatedly announced that they are thinking of taking steps to stop it. The essence of the scam is that a handful of Chinese and Indian firms are deliberately producing large quantities of an incredibly powerful "greenhouse gas" which we in the West - including UK taxpayers - then pay them billions of dollars to destroy. | conspiracy theory | 5.3.1 | CARDS |
In 2012, Mr. Trump wrote on Twitter, "The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing noncompetitive." | conspiracy theory | 5.3 | jintrain |
Andy Dessler's study will not stand hard scrutiny. COP16 delegates worried about the ongoing credibility problems of climate modeling will find no solace in Dessler's work. | ad hominem | 5.1 | CARDS |
The world's climate scientists are almost all employed by western governments. They usually don't pay you to do climate research unless you say you believe manmade global warming is dangerous, and it has been that way for more than 20 years. The result is a near-unanimity that is unusual for a theory in such an immature science. | ad hominem | 5.2.5 | CARDS |
Climate change or global warming is nothing more than a hox and another form to control the populas. We do ultimately have a pollution problem and need to take care of it. But there is no global warming. There never has been. | conspiracy theory | 5.3 | hamburg_test2 |
for every extra person who dies from heat, 2 are saved from dying of cold i.e. net saving of a life: Global warming is good for mankind. Global cooling would kill more people from cold than saved from heat. | oversimplification | 3.6 | hamburg_test3 |

In the geological past, Earth’s atmosphere had hundreds of times the CO2 content of the modern atmosphere yet there were no carbon dioxide-driven catastrophes. The past shows that climate change is normal, that warmer times and more atmospheric carbon dioxide have driven biodiversity and that cold times kill. | false equivalence | 2.1.4 | Alhindi_train |
To demonstrate to yourself that the ABC is completely biased, in particular on climate change, all you need to do is go to the ABC web site here , get yourself a stiff drink (because believe me, youll need it) and watch the debate that followed the screening of the film The Great Global Warming Swindle. The audience was partisan and biased, just as alleged by Senator Eric Abetz: | ad hominem | 5.2.2 | CARDS |
Moreover, its warming impact decreases sharply after the first 20 or 30 ppm. | oversimplification | 2.3.2 | Alhindi_train |
We scientists have known since 1896 that increased carbon dioxide has a greatly diminished effect on temperature. At today's carbon dioxide concentration only a tiny effect can ensue even if the concentration doubles. | oversimplification | 2.3.2 | CARDS |
Then theres the issue of sea level change. Global warming and climate change are usually thought to mean that world sea levels will rise, perhaps disastrously. But according to US government scientific experts, in recent times (2010 and 2011, to be precise) phenomena driven by human carbon emissions have actually caused world sea levels to fall. According to a statement issued by the US National Science Foundation: For an 18-month period beginning in 2010, the oceans mysteriously dropped by about seven millimeters.

There have now been several major ice core surveys, and everyone of them says the same thing. CO2 clearly does not cause temperature changes, it follows temperature changes. | false choice | 2.3.3 | CARDS |
In other words, increasing atmospheric CO2 is not causing global temperature to rise; instead the natural cyclic increase in global temperature is causing global CO2 to rise. | false choice | 2.3.3 | CARDS |
You need to point that temperatures have increased by a mere 1.5 degrees over the last 150 years and have stabilised this century. | slothful induction | 3.4 | hamburg_test3 |
This attribution error evokes one of Mr. Koonin'rare rebukes : "Pointing to hurricanes as an example of the ravages of human-caused climate change is at best unconvincing , and at worst plainly dishonest." | ad hominem | 5.2 | jintrain |
All along the public was told the reason for rising temperatures was a result of the increase in global carbon emissions. Yet carbon emissions continue to rise, while temperatures do not. | single cause | 2.3.3 | CARDS |

A Dormant Sun: In February, TWTW reported a study from the Pulkovo Observatory in Russia stating that if the current solar cycle pattern continues, with little solar activity, the globe may experience a new Little Ice Age. | slothful induction | 1.2 | CARDS |
But like most claims regarding global warming, the real effect is small, probably temporary, and most likely due to natural weather patterns. | single cause | 1.7 | jintest |
Global warming activists do not extend the record back any further, they say, because it has only been since the late 1800s that we have had a global network of mercury thermometers. | ad hominem | 5.1.3 | jintrain |

Haven't Global Temperatures Risen Before? Yes. In the longer term, say hundreds to thousands of years, there is considerable indirect, proxy evidence (not from thermometers) of both warming and cooling. Since humankind can't be responsible for these early events, this is evidence that nature can cause warming and cooling. If that is the case, it then opens up the possibility that some (or most) of the warming in the last 50 years has been natural, too. | single cause | 2.1.4 | CARDS |
As you can see, only in the driest desert on earth will increasing CO2 increase the back radiation. Water vapor is by far the strongest greenhouse gas, but it is nearly saturated at 10% humidity. At 10% humidity and above, no amount of CO2 does anything. Most of the humidity on earth is in that area on the right where doubling CO2 will do nothing to increase the long-wave radiation from the sky. Yet another CAGW fail. | misrepresentation | 2.3.4 | CARDS |

The fact is that any supposed damage caused by human driven climate change is being massively over exaggerated to further agendas and line pockets. Humanity has far more serious threats facing it. | conspiracy theory | 5.3.2 | hamburg_test1 |
The coalition alleged that the method used to collect national temperature records, which show a national warming trend of almost one degree Celsius in the past century, almost 50 per cent above the global average, had been unscientific. That had created an unrealistic and unreliable indication of climate warming, it said. | ad hominem | 5.1.3 | CARDS |
“The IPCC reports also don’t fully account for the albedo effect (less ice means less reflected and more absorbed sunlight, hence more warming); more cloud cover (which traps heat); or the dieback of forests and other flora (which extract carbon from the atmosphere). Each of these promises to accelerate warming” | misrepresentation | 5.2.5 | Alhindi_train |
However, since actual CO2 production is already below IPCC forecasts, we might take a more reasonable date of 2080-2100 for a doubling to 560. And, combining this with our derived sensitivity of 1C (rather than RealClimate's 3C) we will get 0.5C more warming in the next 75-100 years. This is about the magnitude of warming we experienced in the last century, and most of us did not even notice. | slothful induction | 3.1 | CARDS |

There is a considerable presence within the scientific community of people who do not agree with the IPCC conclusion that anthropogenic CO2 emissions are very probably likely to be primarily responsible for the global warming that has occurred since the Industrial Revolution. | fake experts | 5.1.1 | CARDS |
Yet another bitterly cold, snowy winter is destroying alarmist global warming claims, proving once again that over-the-top global warming predictions are proving no more scientifically credible than snake oil. | anecdote | 1.3 | CARDS |
The tiny effect of rising CO2 levels on climate contrasts sharply with their enormous benefits to plant growth and agriculture. Not only is more CO2 greening deserts, forests and grasslands; it is increasing grain and food yields worldwide, and helping people in developing nations live longer, healthier lives. | oversimplification | 3.3.1 | CARDS |

Climate change is bs. It's made up propaganda. Models are bought and paid for by commies wanting to redistribute wealth. Rich get richer poor get poorer. | conspiracy theory | 5.3.2 | hamburg_test1 |
Second, all mainstream climate models predict a hotspot, a warming in the upper troposphere (about 10 km or 6 miles up, in the tropics) caused by an ascending water vapor emissions layer, during periods of warming such as the 1980s and 1990s. This is crucial, because two thirds of their predicted warming is from water vapor; only one third is directly due to increasing carbon dioxide. So no hotspot means not much cause for alarm. Our only suitable instruments for detecting the hotspot are weather balloonsthirty million of them since the 1950s, released from hundreds of locations, twice a day. They show no hotspot, and indicate that the water vapor emissions layer descended slightly instead. Satellites are unsuitable because they intrinsically aggregate information from several vertical kilometers into each data point, but the predicted ascent is only tens of meters. | misrepresentation | 2.3.5 | CARDS |

Levels of CO2 far beyond what we will ever be able to achieve in the ambient atmosphere are highly beneficial for plant growth, which is why most commercial greenhouses use CO2 generators to keep CO2 at 3x to 4x ambient levels, at significant expense.
