Strong Evidence Earth's Atmosphere Cools - not warms us



Re-examination of cold, hard data relating to the climate debate and whether earth’s atmosphere cools or warms us, is becoming an obsession among an increasing number of independent and curious applied scientists and engineers.
After 3o years of being browbeaten about man-made global warming by government ‘scientists’, skeptical specialists from applied science and engineering are exposing just how much those ‘experts’ have been lying to us.
Below, American professional engineer, Nicholas Schroeder offers reasons why global warming alarmists have gotten the science all wrong. Schroeders writes:

In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual.
  • Galileo Galilei
 The ONLY^3 reasons the radiative greenhouse gas effect (RGHE) theory even exists is to explain how the average surface (1.5 m above ground) temperature of 288 K/15 C (K-T balance 289 K/16 C) minus 255 K/-18C , the average surface (now ground) temperature w/o an atmosphere (which is just completely BOGUS!) equals 33 C warmer w/ than w/o atmosphere.
That Δ33 C notion is absolute rubbish and when it flies into the nearest dumpster it hauls RGHE “theory” in right behind it.
The sooner that is realized and accepted the sooner all of us will have to find something better to do with our time and the taxpayers’ money. Maybe that’s what keeps RGHE staggering down the road.
The genesis of RGHE theory is the incorrect notion that the atmosphere warms the surface (and that is NOT the ground). Explaining the mechanism behind this erroneous notion demands some truly contorted physics, thermodynamics and heat transfer, i.e. energy out of nowhere, cold to hot without work, equates to nonsense perpetual motion.
Is space cold or hot? There are no molecules in space so our common definitions of hot/cold/heat/energy don’t apply.
The temperatures of objects in space, e.g. the Earth, Moon, space station, Mars, Venus, etc. are determined by the radiation flowing past them. In the case of the Earth, the solar irradiance of 1,368 W/m^2 has a Stefan Boltzmann black body equilibrium temperature of 394 K, 121 C, 250 F. That’s hot. Sort of.

But an object’s albedo reflects away some of that energy and reduces that temperature.
The Earth’s albedo reflects away about 30% of the Sun’s 1,368 W/m^2 energy leaving 70% or 958 W/m^2 to “warm” the surface (1.5 m above ground) and at an S-B BB equilibrium temperature of 361 K, 33 C cooler (394-361) than the earth with no atmosphere or albedo.

The Earth’s albedo/atmosphere doesn’t keep the Earth warm, it keeps the Earth cool. Bring science, I did. (6,600 views and zero rebuttals.)

“The first design consideration for thermal control is insulation — to keep heat in for warmth and to keep it out for cooling.”
“Here on Earth, environmental heat is transferred in the air primarily by conduction (collisions between individual air molecules) and convection (the circulation or bulk motion of air).”
Oops! WHAT?! Did they forget to mention RGHE “theory?” Global warming? Climate change? Bad scientists! Oh, wait. These must be engineers who actually USE science
“This is why you can insulate your house basically using the air trapped inside your insulation,” said Andrew Hong, an engineer (SEE!!) and thermal control specialist at NASA’s Johnson Space Center. “Air is a poor conductor of heat, and the fibers of home insulation that hold the air still minimize convection.”
“”In space there is no air for conduction or convection,” he added. Space is a radiation-dominated environment. Objects heat up by absorbing sunlight and they cool off by emitting infrared energy, a form of radiation which is invisible to the human eye.”
Uhh, that’s in SPACE where radiation rules NOT on EARTH.
“Without thermal controls, the temperature of the orbiting Space Station’s Sun-facing side would soar to 250 degrees F (121 C), while thermometers on the dark side would plunge to minus 250 degrees F (-157 C). There might be a comfortable spot somewhere in the middle of the Station, but searching for it wouldn’t be much fun!”
121 C plus 273 C = 394 K Ta-dahhh!!!!!
Shiny insulation keeps the International Space Station COOL!!!! Just like the earth’s albedo/atmosphere keeps the earth COOL!!! NOT hot like RGHE’s BOGUS “Theory.”
