enginer, Modeling is extremely difficult. The phrase garbage in = garbage out. GW models have a terrible record - eg the ole Hockey Stick! The data being generated should be a good reason to question the whole fear attack. We have too many people with no knowledge of data manipulation making dumb - and dangerous - decisions. Bob

When the end justifies the means, all of the BS that doesn't make sense becomes very clear. Notice how the global warming god algore even used a CO2/temp chart that proved he was wrong yet he isn't called on it by his followers.

Good question. I've often wondered the same thing. Won't plants grow much more under a high CO2 atmospheric content? I would think so. I guess the hypothesis on desertification would theorize that temperatures would rise so high that it would suck all the moisture out of the air. But it would seem an intermediate phase would be the increase in swamp like conditions in many places with tropical humidity, then maybe in the latter stages of temperature increases, the moisture would dry up. Just a guess. One thing I'm curious about is why is it that in areas with heavy pollution like in China, we see deserts expanding? Do you have any theories on that?
