Just another thing that shows mankind doesn't understand the global environment and how wrong the "GW experts" are......

Recent studies by others have suggested carbon sinks were declining in some areas of the globe, including parts of the Southern Hemisphere and portions of the world's oceans. But the new Nature study showed global CO2 uptake by Earth's sinks essentially doubled from 1960 to 2010.

Amount of CO2 being sucked away by Earth 'has doubled in 50 years'

So why is atmospheric CO2 continuing to increase? Acceleration of Atmospheric CO2 | CO2 Trend | Current CO2

I sure wish people would read and try to understand the article first before responding with the typical tree hugger knee-jerk reaction....

This was the focus of the article:

This new global analysis makes it clear that scientists do not yet understand well enough the processes by which ecosystems of the world are removing CO2 from the atmosphere, or the relative importance of possible sinks: regrowing forests on different continents, for example, or changing absorption of carbon dioxide by various ocean regions.

The people that still deny global warming remind me of the knight in Monty Phythons "Search for the Holy Grail". He had his legs and arms cut off and was still challenging the other knight to a fight, it's over. The only thing foolish is to respond to these mindless threads.

Then why are you always telling everyone that the Scientists are right about global warming?

But agree with you, it should be called a scam...

trying to understand it is..... I recall better weather reporing back in the 50's. These days not so much, and I think becuae a majority of people don't go out so much as before.

Any mild natural rain these days is called a storm, as is any snow in winter.

The plain truth is science doesn't know global squat, but it does know the earth was covered in ice before and was also all tropical in other past times..

I can adapt. but can the Left?

MMGW is poly tics no scient there at all, unless playin witch doctor is a science.

Scientists and science have gone separate ways.

Science is science regardless what some thousands of university professors (Scientists) on government grants say.

Scientists don't believe in what they preach.

95% of scientists are frauds much like televangelists.

Of course, in real science, the burden of proof is to disprove the null hypothesis. The balance of data thus far seems to refute the concept of man-made global warming. Thus, the "theory" of global warming is very, very shaky, at best.

At this point, man-made global warming is unproven conjecture and has not held up to rigid scrutiny. Those who embrace man-made global warming as fact are the antithesis of valid science and simply make fools of themselves by declaring this hoax to be "proven true". Obviously these proponants have never conducted an actual bench experiment, never written a paper for a peer reviewed scientific journal, have never reviewed any scientific papers as a part of the editorial process and have no knowledge of statistics.

In short, if you have no actual professional experience in conducting bench science and writing in the literature, your views are amateurish and ill conceived at best. It simply makes you look ridiculous.
