Challenging Greenhouse Warming Theory: A Call for Experimentation
1.
Did you know that it has never been shown
experimentally
that increasing concentrations of
greenhouse gases actually cause air to warm?
Goal
: Encourage politicians and the people
who vote for them to wonder whether
greenhouse warming
theory
is correct
This is embarrassing. What if we spend trillions of
dollars reducing greenhouse gases and have no
effect on global temperatures? Shouldn’t we do a
simple experiment first?
The only experiment documented in the scientific
literature was by physicist Knut Ångström in 1900,
and he showed the warming effect to be minimal.
Dr. Peter L. Ward is offering to pay $10,000 to the first
scientist who can show experimentally that greenhouse
gases were the primary reason for global warming
observed from 1970 to 1998.

Climate models
predict that you will get hotter
standing in moonlight rather then standing in
sunlight. Is that your experience?
3.
Climate models
assume that the thermal energy in
radiation is the same at every frequency.
But ultraviolet radiation burns your skin and fades
your lawn furniture. Infrared radiation absorbed by
greenhouse gases does not even have enough energy
to penetrate glass and it can never burn your skin.

Climate models
predict that layers of air heated by
greenhouse gases warm Earth. Layers of air are
colder than Earth. Do you get warm standing next to
a cold stove?
5.
Detailed records
of climate change in layers of ice
in Greenland show that at least 25 times in the
past 110,000 years, the world warmed suddenly
out of ice-age conditions within years and then
cooled slowly over centuries to millennia back into
ice-age conditions. How can greenhouse gases
explain these very clear observations?

We want to open minds
The tables have turned.
They are on the defensive
Do not give them an easy way to dismiss you
1.
Be courteous and appreciative of the hard work by all
2.
Always remember that they all are at least as passionate as you about
their own work
3.
Do not attribute motives to others
4.
Suggest problems with ideas but never with people
5.
Be cool, calm, and collected but display your passion to do what is
best for humankind
6.
Do not be dogmatic. Be willing to discuss. “Oh that is an interesting
idea, but ….”
7.
I blame the problems with models on Maxwell’s assumption in the
1860s that light travels as waves through air and space. He is dead
and cannot complain, but he is also widely revered by most physicists
who will defend him endlessly. That argument is then on physics, not
on a particular living person. The physics argument can be won, but
physicists will defend it with as much vigor as climate scientists will
defend CO

Be positive and upbeat.
First they ignore you,
Then they laugh at you,
Then they fight you,
Then you win.

Encouraging critical thinking towards greenhouse warming theory, this message questions the lack of experimental proof linking greenhouse gases to global warming. It highlights challenges to the current climate models and offers a reward for scientific evidence supporting the theory. Emphasizing the importance of empirical testing and open-mindedness, it aims to spark debate and reevaluation among politicians and the public on climate change beliefs.
