Many have struggled in recent days to recall a period in history when weather systems developed to Category 4 & 5 before leaving the space of the Northern Caribbean. Clearly there is enough evidence to draw a reasonable conclusion that we have entered a period in which the region will have to contend with more intense weather systems. While it seems a simple conclusion for the BU household to make others argue that it is a manufactured idea.

Dude, is that all it takes for you to consider that GW is a scam? Talking of a low bar, but that might be just your level

can you READ? NONE OF THE SCHOLARS WHO WROTE IN CAPITAL LeTTERS OR GOT SCHOLARSHIPS BASED ON HIGH SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS HAVE SAID THAT THERE IS NO GLOBAL WARMING
I expect there to be global warning as predicted in God’s Word which I believe.
The list of scholars who support global warming is long and strong and so it should be because THE BIBLE SAYS IT WOULD HAPPEN AND WHY.and when.the first thing I said was that there is global warming, I also said why I thought it was so.
the argument made by the SCHOLAR WHO WROTE IN CAPITALS EXPLAINED THE UNCHANGED SCIENCE ABOUT THE CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY OF CARBON DIOXIDE clearly
now you can reel or wheel and come again
when you have something to add of consquence about the science of the mater or something sensible to say as Vincent has you may return. -

There are two schools of thought. There is global warming and there is not.
The list of scholars who support global warming is long and strong.
It will take more than capital letters and mention of a scholarship As a result of high school examinations to persuade me there is no global warming.

THAT THERE IS GLOBAL WARMING IS AN EMPIRICAL FINDING–ONE CAN FEEL IT
THAT THERE IS CLIMATE CHANGE IS ALSO AN EMPIRICAL FINDING..CLEARLY GLOBAL WARMING WILL CAUSE SOME CLIMATE CHANGE.BUT TO SAY THAT THESE ARE CAUSED BY CARBON DIOXIDE EVINCES SCIENTIFIC ILLITERACY TO THE VRY HIGHEST LEVEL.

WHY DO YOU HATE JOHN SO
IT WAS NOT EASY TO GET A SCHOLARSHIP IN THE 70’S……..VERY FEW WERE AWARDED THEN . IN FACT NONE WERE AWARDED IN 72IS EVERYBODY WHO CHOE TO LIVE IN BARBADOS secluded on an island? wHAT DOES THE WORD SECLUDED MEAN AGAIN?
scholarships in science is not exclusive to a few..the world is filled with real scientists..

Bernard,
You are right: ignorance and lies. How many patents have Barbadians registered since 1966? Can someone please tell me about the post-graduate research in the natural sciences being done at UWI? What is the percentage of UWI undergraduates reading the natural sciences or any STEM subject? How many of our national scholars opt to study the sciences – and of those how many return to Barbados to work/carry out post-graduate studies?
Who in the blog have children who graduated in computer sciences, natural sciences and law?
Anonymity allows people to fabricate their CVs and Google and cut and paste that is why we cannot take them at their word. -

@Moneybrain The only Rights is what the Law says and these Mexicans et al are ILLEGALS.>
I made the point re the errant dismissal of the ancestral lands of those tribes. But as for your comment.
‘what the law says’. Ahhh… quite right. For now. Everything is transient. Your paragraph, taken as a whole, concedes that the law can change as to the most current events over time.
The current law is , in the long run, temporary. The status is temporary.
By your admission, possession is the law.

Bajans,
The expressed aim of the UWI I a graduate in every home. Ha, ha, ha. In the UK, Africans and Asians are over-achieving in the sciences. Caribbeans drift towards law and the social sciences and humanities. It must be a cultural thing. -

I much prefer listen to the EXPERTS on climate change and the reasons, high school science tests in the 60s and 70s is no match for expert knowledge.

Times change. Possession is the law, as you have ably demonstrated above.
Be careful what policy you hang your hat on.
Likely you are inadvertently admitting that the projections of a Spanish speaking USA has the wealthy scared and hence the answer, before they get ‘possession’…and the ‘law’.
The answer being Trump and ‘get them out’.

Theo,
Still waiting pun the UK Govt to pay me for Barbadosing my family for the Monmouth Rebellion which was totally justified! Additionally, the reparations for th family sent down in the Coal mines at the age of 8 stark born naked who died by age 25 of black lung disease. When I receive such monies I will be pleased to endorse over to U—3% anyway. -

That is why they have lost their dominant standing and are being left behind….hanging their hats on one policy fir 240 years……on miseducation from the 50s and 60s….on crap they themselves did not create….. hanging on to dead coattails for 400 years.
They are now weak and vulnerable.

You would agree that nothing occurs in a vacuum?

I also had the fortune to be taught for one year by Peppy. Brilliant he was. Though I was merely average, not of you, GP’s, caliber for sure. Then I had the misfortune to be taught by one ignoramus woman. She could not teach a boy to ride a bicycle.
Ignorant cow.

AT PRIMARY SCHOOL I LEARNED 1-2- 3, A B C and doh ray meat HC I began my journey in CHemistry
at CAVE HILL I mastered BONDING
just as 1-2- 3 is essential to eventually master mathematics
and A B C is foundational to reading and much learning not imbibed empiracally
so too BONDING HELPS YOU TO UNDERSTAND WHAT A CHEMICAL COMPOUND CAN AND WILL NOT DO
It is now fashionable on BU to criticize the Bajan high school of the 60’s but most of the US college students I teach obviously did not what what we now despise.

Crusoe my friend I agree with you that in some places there is now “no more or at the least significantly reduced greenery than existed thirty years ago.”
I suppose that you are suggesting that there is less photosynthesis in these areas. That can not be denied, This does not mean that increased carbon dioxide concentrations mean increased warmth, because carbon dioxide by itself does not emit heat.
As MB and Vincent correctly posit we need to reduce the chemical reactions that emit heat, whether or not carbon dioxide is simultaneously emitted or not.
-
the statement that ALL FLESH IS GRASS” found in Isaiah 40:6 and 1 Peter 1:24 distills what is found in all MODERN high school science books called THE FOOD CHAIN and the FOOD PYRAMID. These explain that small fish eat some kind of plant material or zooplankton, these are eaten by larger fish up the chain
This happens with small animals that eat grass that are eaten by larger animals. Everything revolves on combining carbon dioxide with water to form organic compounds at both the micro and macro levels
That the carbon dioxide that is emitted here and there is used to cause hurricanes of nuclear proportions is BULLSHIT….and an insult to educated folk engaged in continuing education in their subjects. murdah
