you don't need knowledge to make a theory. the chances that your wrong will just increase. It was more like a random thought i told a friend than a theory

You don't need knowledge to make a hypothesis. You need knowledge to make a theory.

Only by applying vague and inaccurate definitions to the word theory. By the scientific method, a sound knowledge underpins theory.

But most of the high school morons in this forum wouldn't have learned the scientific method to any fundamental degree yet.

CO2 doesn't cause global warming at all. It's actually Global warming that causes CO2 concentration to rise in the atmosphere. If you look how the CO2 concentrations have developed against the earth temperature, you'll see that first the temperature rises and then the CO2 concentration increases. If CO2 was the cause of global warming than we would see that first CO2 concentration would rise and then the temperature. How can people not see this really amazing? blink.gif

Instead of starving ourself of energy, research is being done to send back sunrays before it reaches earth. It's actually verysuccesfull the tests that have been carried out. But more research is need to understand the impact of salty gasses on the ecosystem before it will be used on a large scale.

I don't think "global warming" is the cause of man, or any animal for that matter.
I don't remember where I read this, but I'm pretty sure water vapor counts for 70% of greenhouse gases. We obviously cannot control the amount of water vapor in the air, and that amount is always fluctuating.
Recent studies have shown that CO2 is increased by temperature, not the other way around (so millions of Americans think). As temperature rises, Carbon Dioxide levels increase.


Yes, water vapor is a very effective greenhouse gas. However, you're stupid if you think its the cause of global warming. The concentration of water vapor in the atmosphere is essentially at a steady state. No matter how much we add, it will not even make a dent (thanks to the oceans). The amount fluctuates only as a function of seasons but otherwise is not changing.

Carbon dioxide concentration does increase with temperature, but all you have to do is look at Venus to see that the opposite is also true.

i'm not sure what you wanted to achieve with this post. However i made a mistake in my statement.. can we all just turn back to the subject now?

If we assume that all what i've posted in topic was true, what do you all think we should do then ?
