In clash with Trump, U S report says humans cause climate change

The rapid pace of global climate change is almost certainly driven by human activity, like burning fossil fuels, according to a U.S. government report that contradicts assertions by President Donald Trump and members of his administration. Jonah Green reports.
A new government report finds that global warming is highly likely caused by human activity, specifically the emission of greenhouse gasses. And the change in global temperatures will depend heavily on how much carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.

The report out Friday is seemingly at odds with the White House’s stance on the global threat.

The report, released Friday, is required by Congress every four years and comes from a group of more than 50 U.S. government scientists.

The findings at odds with the White House, as the occupant of Oval Office has repeatedly called climate change a “hoax”

But as the report makes clear, this is no hoax.

“For the warming over the last century, there is no convincing alternative explanation supported by the extent of the observational evidence.”

The report, whose authors include scientists at agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency, also at odds with the head of the EPA, who himself has expressed skepticism at the prevailing science behind climate change.

Officials at the EPA did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The report says that average sea levels are expected to rise “at least several inches in the next 15 years” due to rising temperatures and that “a rise of as much as 8 feet by 2100 cannot be ruled out”#

  1. The opposing view on climate change is simply overlooked and doubted from the start. It is biblical. The flood caused the ice age which has been melting over the millenniums. It's really that simple but they must deny the bible is legitimate and come up with preposterous stories to make up their ever changing myths. You will be proven wrong forever until you admit the truth. Debunking these claims are simple. And the idea that all the ice caps melting will raise the water level to any significant amount is false. Put an ice cube into a full cup of water and watch the level remain the same. It's alarmist propaganda and the biggest lie being told to the world since evolution. Stop being idiots and get your facts straight. C14 dating is debunked along with all the rest of their pseudoscience. The only monkey offspring are these bible deniers.

  2. Here is MODTRAN, the official calculator for greenhouse effect:
    climatemodels.uchicago.edu/modtran/
    Try it with CO2 levels of 0ppm, 40, 270 and 400ppm.

    From this you will understand that CO2 at low levels has quite a significant effect on infrared heat retention.
    At higher levels such as in the modern era, further increases have negligible effect.
    So – Is CO2 a greenhouse gas? – Yes.
    Is it likely to cause runaway warming? – No.

  3. What if the present catastrophic state of the weather continues? where will we find our food if the crops are constantly being destroyed by it?

    Just asking, because catastrophic weather is washing away the top soils, and or, drowning crops in flood or even wind damage..

    Anyone remember the dust bowl situation? Food banks will dwindle, and watch the prices soar, and the poor starve.

  4. Dear Oman: the U.S. doesn't produce "reports." It was some leftover Obama government drone, or a collection of such brainless snowflakes.

    Bad reporting. Lame and incompetent propaganda, Oman.

  5. The u.s. reports is elementary. Quit making false news. The news of the people reports that mainstream media makes itself ridiculous. Case closed.

  6. there is no climate change on a flat planet.
    the gasses fly thru the atmosphere over the ice dams that contain the oceans and then fall over the edge.

    Don't argue on YouTube or Facebook comment section. With Russian trolls.

  11. Remember when a hurricane hit and global warming enthusiasts claimed the floods from it were caused by global warming? How the universe is getting hotter itself? How the planet goes naturally on a cycle and the cold cycle ended at the last Ice Age? And how during the Mesozoic Era there was no ice on Earth even though there were no humans? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
