Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are to blame for global warming

[longview]

Here is an interesting idea I found on a fishing site of all places.
Global warming caused by chlorofluorocarbons, not carbon dioxide, new study says
The CFC theory seems to have a closer correlation to temp. than Co2.

Of course the problem with the Professors analysis is that it doesn't fit into the Green/Activists agenda. With C02 as the villian, even exhaled breath becomes a regulated entity, requiring government intervention to control.

It won't be too much of a streach to see the government of the future deciding how much air you can exhale, and how many people in a family will be allowed to do so.

Actually the point is being missed CO2 still causes climate change just you need more of it to do so while CFCs can build up with far fewer particles, it is Grade 9 science.

Interesting. Somewhere early on in my days at DP I pondered about the connection between the hole in the ozone layer and AGW and was told I was a poo poo head. Looks like I may have at least been in the ballpark and not out there tailgating with the cool kids at their "97% of Us Agree With Ourselves" bandwagon in the parking lot.

But but but we peer review each others work at our orgies so we must be right......

Really? No wonder scientists have been spending billions of dollars to research it. Dang, you should get on twitter and let them know it's just 9th grade science.

Wait, maybe they know, and they are just chasing the dollars after all.

The problem with the 9th grade version, or even the quantum version for that matter of Co2, is that the Co2 effects are known.
Moving Co2 levels to two times the standard 280 ppm to 560 ppm would cause between 1.5 to 2 degrees C of increase.
To get to the alarm levels of 4 to 5 degrees C, some forcing needs to be included.
The forcing is a hypothesis, and the energy transfer states have not been defined.
There is also that problem, that while Co2 went up in the last 15 years, temps have been flat.
The CFC's look like a better correlation to changing temperatures,
and also something we might actually be able to do something about.
Even when we get to the point where we can control the climate, there will be ethical
question about if we should, as any selection would create winners and losers.

Funny how that green line also look like the solar cycle...

CO2 forcing that mush is a crock of BS to begin with. We could expect the 1.5 to 2 C increase per doubling if there was no H2O in the atmosphere already competing with the same spectra CO2 uses.

I agree that the 1.5 to 2 is purely theoretical, like on Mars, with no water.
This is a published paper with an alternate suspect.
The correlation appears much better than any of the Co2 matches.
I need to spend some time and look over what they are saying.
While I have a very good understanding of Co2 from lasers,
My knowledge of CFC's is limited to PTFE in it's solid form.

Well, on the positive side of their argument, CFC's will vibrate at spectra natural atmospheric molecules don't. That said, I don't think there would be enough content of these trace gasses to do anything.

Notice the oscillation of the green curve is about 11 years...

I think what they are saying, is that the CFC damage the ozone,
which then allows in more UV, which then warms the atmosphere.
The CFCs play no quantum role of their own, but chemical.

Maybe so, but then if it has to do with ozone depletion, that is a natural oscillation as well with the 11/22 year solar cycle, regardless of depleting gasses.

yes, and in the meantime nothing has been done to regulate CFCs
another binary response because certainly both cannot contribute to the global warming circumstance

Hmmm.

Well, I guess when they were banned from use throughout most of the world 20 years or so ago, it would be accurate to say CFC's aren't regulated.

Again, much better to identify exhaled breath as a global warming gas, because so many more things can be put under control...
