Alarming aspirations from latest climate report...

[Old apprentice]

Oddly, climate change has never stopped for the last 4.2 billion years, so it is unlikely that even the extinction of the human race would stop it.

Spot on.

Thats okay as I start my new job in 2024 so I’ll be doing my bit

That is frigging brilliant... or is that a CO2 rich atmosphere?? Lazy farmer or 2hr lunchbreak or 2050??

Climate science 101 with David Siegel - YouTube

Have a watch of this video. The first ten minutes explain that water vapour is responsible for 75% of the green house effect , and although CO2 and Methane are powerful greenhouse gasses, their effect dimminishes as concentrations increase , due to saturation.

The water vapour "issue" has been ditched by the great and the good because there’s no money in it, but I’m sure you knew that anyway.

The relevant bit of the video, to this thread (4.08 to 10min), is that doubling of methane , would only result in a rise of 0.012 degrees Celsius.

Doubling of methane from what source?

Doubling of methane from what source?

The video says it would take 300 years , to double , at current increments.

I don't know if the different isotopes of Carbon( C12,C13,C14 etc) cause different amounts of warming , but we all know methane from ruminants hasn't changed much over the years.

By source I meant atmospheric (ie ruminants/rice etc) rather than fossil. Fundamental difference, but hey ho.
