Carbon Dioxide Not a Well Mixed Gas and Can’t Cause Global Warming

EXCERPT:

One of the least challenged claims of global warming science is that carbon dioxide
in the atmosphere is a “well-mixed gas.” A new scientific analysis not only debunks
this assertion but also shows that standard climatology calculations, applicable only to
temperature changes of the minor gas, carbon dioxide were fraudulently applied to the entire atmosphere to inflate alleged global temperature rises.

Whoa!

If this holds up, it is a serious claim that must be addressed by the Warmists.

Although they probably will ignore it, just as they do data and observation that doesn't fit their concept.

It is the warmists who generally claim,that it is a well mixed gas.

I've made posts on my doubts about well mixed CO2. Apart from the fact the molecule is nearly as heavy as an ozone molecule which they all agree forms a 'layer', plants, which depend on CO2, grow on low lying ground. All mountain ranges have a 'tree line'. Not much plant life above the 'tree line'. I've always believed that as plants use up the low level CO2, replacement CO2 sinks down from air above, or is blown in on the wind. Whatever. I must go read the file now and practice my cringe.

Richard111, as I'm sure your aware, CO2 dissolves very well in (colder the better) water,
so, rain washes a lot of CO2 out of, and down in the atmosphere.
Yet another "evenly distributed" fact "they" prefer not mentioned.

Excerpt from pdf,
The trick of climate doomsayers is that they draw their conclusions obtained from the Arrhenius formula for CO2 (only 0.04% of atmosphere),
then
apply that change of temperature to the WHOLE Earth;
this is bad science, or possibly fraud.

Nahle poses this question for GHE believers:
“Is the atmosphere composed only of carbon dioxide?
Why calculate the change of temperature of a mass of carbon dioxide and then after say
it is the change of temperature of this trace gas that now becomes
the temperature of the whole Earth?”

Astrophysicist and climate researcher, Joe Postma similarly comments:
“No one seems to have realized that
any purported increase in temperature of CO2 due to CO2 absorption is APPLIED TO CO2,
not the whole danged atmosphere!
Again, just a slight tweak in comprehending the reality makes
a whole paradigm of difference.”

Absolutely! "They" never seem to mention that rain is ACID because of CO2 being absorbed from the atmosphere. Just look at all the old historical buildings that are faced with nicely carved limestone. But the oceans being alkali, can NEVER become acid, they can only tend towards neutral. Yet if the world gets warmer it is a scientific fact that the oceans will absorb LESS CO2 so they CANNOT become "more acidic"! They aren't "acidic" in the first place! Warmers are dimmer than the curly light bulbs they are so fond of.

I think the whole notion of CO2 being a greenhouse gas is completely spurious.
