TRUMP ADMIN AT 4 WEEKS

Sure the hell have, it dowloads several directories of data files in an \SG53 folder, you select several emissions scenarios, and you enter parameters.

Are you going to point me in the right direction for disputes over the Cato calculator or not?
Just about every scenario there points to rising temperatures and rising seal levels.
 
The default data debunks the Cato calculator.

Yeah ok, if it did (and from those nasty Koch brothers), it would be all over the Internet but it doesn't, there's no public debunking anywhere.
 
And then you have this calculator from the U.S National Center for Atmospheric Research, with funding from EPA, that shows that if you eliminate all the carbon in the world. there is no difference in global temperatures:

So, if I am reading this right, you mention "this calculator" from the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research but do not attach the link to the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research.

Were you intentionally trying to mislead (hypocritical) or were you unaware that they are not the same thing (lack of awareness) or is it both?

Good to see you continue to embrace your inner Trump.

Good to see the Clinton shill back.

Guess you didn't read the link provided BECAUSE IT HAS THE LINK TO THE CALCUATOR FROM THE U.S. NATIONAL CENTER FOR ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH, LOL!!

Do you have anything worthwhile to add or just want to take phony, uneducated shots at me?
 
A response that includes ALL CAPITAL LETTERS with a double exclamation point kicker!! I am impressed by your Trumpian writing style.

But to your point, color me uneducated only unlike you I am willing to learn. I already went to the UCAR.edu link (That's the MAFICC/SCENGEN page) embedded in the Cato link. Why didn't you just go to the source document to begin with?

Did you download MAGICC/SCENGEN Version 5.3? Did it really show that (your words - "if you eliminate all the carbon in the world. there is no difference in global temperatures")?

Or, did you just find something on-line that you liked, posted a link, and figured no one would look? I critique you because I expect more from you.

Already said I did and had downloaded previous versions as well. You need to provide personal info to download it, maybe Cato did it so you wouldn't have to do that?

Almost undetectable variations in temperatures but we should legislate drastic measures with serious economic consequences that have virtually no effect? What about Kyoto? Virtually no effect.

What percent of greenhouse gase are anthropogenic?

Virtually no effect is certainly debatable and I have seen scientific studies suggesting it would be a fairly large impact by 2050-2100.

but... "serious economic consequences" is kind of fearmongering, no?

Renewable energy as an industry is still in its infancy with room for huge economic growth. With the right legislation in place, we could encourage / subsidize the US being the world leader in the emerging industry.

Shouldn't we be taking a leadership role instead of waiting for someone else to beat us to it? The eventual game-changer for renewable will be in storage. It is going to happen, just a matter of when/where.
 
^ That said... This administration has gone off the rails.

Accusing a predecessor of wiretapping your phone? Seriously?
If there was any evidence of this, Trump could declassify it and prove it to the public.

Agreed, that is a very, very serious accusation that can't be thrown arounf lightly. Either pony up the evidence and have it investigated or shut up. Actually apologize first, then shut up. And if there is something to it, lock up the guilty.

Apologize? Donald Trump apologizing??? LOL!
 
Some are throwing out the theory that there was a FISA warrant for Russian Spies in the US who were working against our government and they intercepted phone calls from Trump/Trump Tower/Trump Campaign to those spies....

On a side note... What is the first thing third world authoritarian dictators do? Discredit and/or arrest their political enemies/predecessors. From Clinton to Obama, looks like Trump is trying to follow that path.

1. The facts will eventually come out one way or the other. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

2. Discrediting enemies/predecessors is not solely the work of dictators. That goes on every day in every job. Surely you have observed it. Regarding our current political climate, be careful not to push the panic button as to the events that are unfolding. I think it is an overreaction to call any of our recent Presidents "dictators". President Trump, who some fear has dictator potential, has not arrested anybody. He is still learning that being President is much more complicated than being the owner/CEO of a privately held company.Who knew?
