re: #127 Mark Winter

Maybe you should have a reply, too.

There are hundreds of studies prepared by climatologists dealing with the influence that CO2 has on climate. The consensus is that CO2 HAS an influence.

You quote one study of a non-climatologist which does NOT investigate CO2 at all, but stipulates that CO2 has no effect.

Get the idea?

To be fair, the film introducing this thread wasn’t made by a climatologist. Is this cause to dismiss it?

Also, there have actually been quite a number of papers published in peer- reviewed scientific journals, including climatological journals, investigating a hypothesized link between climate and cosmic rays. To date, the evidence has been inconclusive, at best, but research on the matter continues. I think the popular account linked in the original post overstates the matter significantly, but this is an active area of scientific investigation, not something hallucinated by some whacko between rants about chemtrails or something.
