Quote by Will Happer, Princeton University physicist, former Director of Energy Research at the Department of Energy: “I had the privilege of being fired by Al Gore, since I refused to go along with his alarmism....I have spent a long research career studying physics that is closely related to the greenhouse effect....Fears about man-made global warming are unwarranted and are not based on good science. The earth's climate is changing now, as it always has. There is no evidence that the changes differ in any qualitative way from those of the past.”
earths hottest period was the 100 million year carboniferous epoch , when even the arctic was tropical . CO2 levels were as high as 362 ppm . on 12 21 12 atmospheric CO2 levels hit 400 ppm . most models say that at that high rate the earth will go into an irreversible permanent greenhouse effect . we turn into venus 700 degrees F at noon .
by 2023 after five years of worldwide crop failures, food will be made from people ( shades of soylent green ) , by the 2030s the seas will boil off into space and humanity turns to dust .money won't help . the secret government bunkers won't help , the deniers die too
Atmospheric pressure is the average columnular weight of all the gases that make up the atmospheric envelope surrounding the Earth, and this average weight is set nominally at 30 inches of mercury column. A mercury column is a specific instrument devised for measuring atmospheric pressure.
Weather systems cause the atmospheric pressure to vary from 29 inches mercury to 32 inches mercury, and this "low pressure" and "high pressure" variation is what meteorologists refer to when they report weather systems as "high pressure cells" or "low pressure troughs".
Wikipedia is your friend and it will help to get you started on doing your homework.
P.S. There is nothing natural about humans burning fossil fuels and dumping the waste products into the atmosphere.
Sagebrush tries to use association fallacies [3] (often by misquoting and even outright fabrications) that because those people said something that sounds suspicious, that the whole scientific community is "bad"
Quotes by Sagebrush (who frequently quotes Nazi's to further his cause)
"Execute all those who voted for OBAMA",
"Sustainability is a codeword for communism",
"Hire the handicapped, they are fun to watch",
"Justice and equality are codewords for communism",
"God has his hand on the thermostat".
So while it is obvious what kind of person Sagebrush is, if we were to use his "logic" [2] it would make ALL deniers genocidal, Nazi loving, justice, equality and sustainability hating, religious extremists. Although it would not be unreasonable to assume that his fans are.
But you haven't taught us anything yet.
I think you should do some searching and do your own schoolwork
Summarize what you have learned about the atmosphere. Be sure to use and explain the following terms/ideas in your summary: composition, structure, weather vs climate, atmospheric circulation, coriolis effect, El Nino
