Great new presentation by Dr. Takaro, with some good questions for him to answer at the end. Dr. Takaro makes the point that we have a moral obligation to do more to stop global warming, as pointed but by the United Nations, but Canadian and foreign governments are failing.
1) By reflecting away 30% of ISR the albedo, which would not exist w/o the atmosphere, makes the earth cooler than it would be without that atmosphere like that reflective panel set on the dash. Remove the atmosphere/GHGs and the earth becomes much like the Moon or Mercury, a barren rock with a 0.1 albedo, 20% more kJ/h, hot^3 on the lit side, cold^3 on the dark. Nikolov, Kramm (U of AK) and UCLA Diviner mission all tacitly agree. 2) the GHG up/down welling, “trapping”/”back” radiating/delaying/intercepting, 100 % efficient, perpetual warming loop requires "extra" energy which according to RGHE theory comes from 3) the terrestrial surface radiating "extra" energy as an ideal black body which 4) cannot happen because of the non-radiative heat transfer processes of the contiguous atmospheric molecules and as demonstrated by experiment, the gold standard of classical science: principia-scientific.org/debunking-the-greenhouse-gas-theory-with-a-boiling-water-pot/ 1+2+3+4 = 0 Greenhouse Effect + 0 Greenhouse gas warming + 0 man caused climate change.

Here is the piece I refer to in the presentation - I will share it during the breakout group but if you have a chance to review it before, particularly the adapted public health roles framework at the end, that would be great. nccdh.ca/blog/entry/centring-equity-in-emerging-public-health-responses-to-climate-change - Thanks, Pemma
