The core of all Climate Change theory is that increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide will raise planetary temperatures to a point where more water will evaporate into the atmosphere. Water vapor is the Earth's primary greenhouse gas. This will then lead to more carbon dioxide, more water vapor, and eventually the permafrost will melt, releasing methane, a powerful greenhouse gas.

That was and is the theory. Twenty years ago scientists confidently states we were facing a warmer, wetter world with more volatile weather.

So what happened?

Desert regions, which should be moister by now, are every bit as dry as always.

FTA:

"A recent study finds that atmospheric moisture in arid and semi-arid regions is not rising as predicted with global warming, posing new challenges for climate science and raising concerns about heightened risks of wildfires and extreme weather."
End

In fact atmospheric water vapor is not rising ANYWHERE as predicted.

This absolutely guts the whole theory.

And if atmospheric water vapor isn't rising there is no reason, zero, to panic about rising carbon dioxide levels - which still compromise just 0.04% of all atmospheric gas (4 molecules out of every ten thousand of air) and of that less than one can even possibly be attributed to human activity (if that).

so we are supposed to overturn our whole civilization based on THAT!

There is every reason to believe the planetary warming observed - about two whole degrees in a hundred years - is caused by a variety of factors, including land-use changes, cosmic rays, tidal pumping, changes in the wavelength of light put out by the sun, and by just shoddy scientific research See www.surfacestations.org.

As a doomsday theory this thing is dying on the vine. But as a political movement it is alive and well and pushing forward with it's anti-humanist agenda and it's war on free markets and human freedom.

So don't expect to see this on the NBC nightly news, or to hear about it from any politician.
