One thing no one talks about is the fact that in 2020 the world drastically slashed emissions, not by choice, and it did not decrease the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere at all. But yeah, the US puts up a few solar panels and the world is totally gonna cool off!
Emission Reductions From Pandemic Had Unexpected Effects on Atmosphere
Earth’s atmosphere reacted in surprising ways to the lowering of emissions during the pandemic, showing how closely climate warming and air pollution are linked.www.jpl.nasa.gov
The most surprising result, the authors noted, is that while carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions fell by 5.4% in 2020, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere continued to grow at about the same rate as in preceding years. “During previous socioeconomic disruptions, like the 1973 oil shortage, you could immediately see a change in the growth rate of CO2,” said David Schimel, head of JPL’s carbon group and a co-author of the study. “We all expected to see it this time, too.”
Using data from NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 satellite launched in 2014 and the NASA Goddard Earth Observing System atmospheric model, the researchers identified several reasons for this result. First, while the 5.4% drop in emissions was significant, the growth in atmospheric concentrations was within the normal range of year-to-year variation caused by natural processes. Also, the ocean didn’t absorb as much CO2 from the atmosphere as it has in recent years – probably in an unexpectedly rapid response to the reduced pressure of CO2 in the air at the ocean’s surface.
They refuse to accept that the biggest issue with atmospheric temperature that is actually manmade is direct heating.. all our engines and stoves will very slightly raise the temperature of the planet, but its not exponential by any means.
The atmospheric CO2 is postulated to be 414 parts per million or .0414%. Nasa satellites using laser or thermal sensors to determine co2 is junk theoretics… those increases or decreases would be in the noise of the interferents they would have to deal with…
All of that is a better explanation why their data looks screwy than the oceans deciding not to absorb heat or co2 out of fear of coronavirus or something
Basically their data is crap and they have to reverse justify it
