[geo] Youtube playlist

2014-09-28 Thread Andrew Lockley
I've updated the youtube playlist I manage.

 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF8369A27273314D8

There's now about 17hrs of content.

Please contact me if you want me to add some new videos to it, or if
you notice anything that should be removed

[geo] Re: Dr Evil

2014-09-28 Thread David Lewis
Goldblatt said in 2013:  our estimate is that it would take 30,000 ppm CO2 
in the atmosphere to make it warm enough to trigger this runaway 
greenhouse, i.e. boil the oceans away.  He said this was a finding in the 
Goldblatt et.al.  Low simulated radiation limit for runaway greenhouse 
climates http://www.nature.com/ngeo/journal/v6/n8/full/ngeo1892.html 
paper published at that time.  He was quoted 
http://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/runaway-greenhouse-easier-trigger-earth-thought-study-says-f6C10761164
 
in an NBC interview, saying this really seems quite unlikely.  

Would 30,000 ppm seem unlikely to Dr. Evil?  The man had a base on the 
Moon. Is *ISIS* just Dr. Evil diverting our attention from his 
extraterrestrial carbon import program?

But to get an equivalent amount of warming with CFCs or similar would
actually be quite practical, I think. It could potentially be weaponised
quite easily. It would probably be quite easy to conceal the necessary
volumes of SF6 or similar, eg in old salt mines.

It would even possibly be within our technology horizon to make a spaceship
that could crawl slowly to another planet and crash land that kind of
volume of chemicals into their atmosphere. Basically a crude geoengineering
version of the death star.

I've added a few chemtrails debunk videos, as lots of casual observers
get confused by the enormous volumes of utter nonsense there is on
chemtrails disguised as geoengineering.  No matter how many people
believe it, it's still wrong.

RE: [geo] Re: Dr Evil

2014-09-28 Thread Rau, Greg
OK let's assume that 30,000ppm CO2 would do it. So at 2.12 GT C per ppm CO2, 
we'd need 60,000 GT of C or 6*44/12 = 220,000 GT CO2.  Recoverable fossil fuels 
might be 5,000 GT C or 18,000 GT CO2, so that's not going to do it. On the 
other hand, the ocean contains 37,000 GT C or 136,000 GT CO2, so that would get 
you more than half way there (interesting because evaporating the ocean would 
cause half its C to degas as CO2 and half to precipitate as carbonates). Guess 
we'd have to liberate the rest from the 60MT C carbonate mineral pool. Andrew's 
idea of using non-CO2 GHGs would seem simpler (to the hypothetical Dr. Evil).
