A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation where the operator, an individual or organization, pays returns to its investors from new capital paid to the operators by new investors, rather than from profit earned by the operator.

Umm...no. I said my wife's legs were warmer than my feet.
It was humor....sticking with the OP.
What does a head covering have to do with the price of eggs in China?
obviously it is something you lack the capicity to phathom.

Ok, so you are an armchair expert who thinks the notion of climate change is nothing but a ponzi scheme? That explains a lot, you probably know more than the coach of your favorite ball team too.
There is a difference between weather and climate, since this topic is about climate yet you feel the need to rant about us not being able to stop tornadoes I feel you may need to know the difference.

Not really..
The OP is a joke, sarcasm... satire perhaps would be closer to the mark.
My reference to my cold feet, my wife's warm legs with regards to warming and cooling trends was a joke. Humor... jocularity.
you....did...not...get....it.
Which was fine, but for some reason you focused on my wife as being hot... and when I explained my humor, you still persisted. And brought in the head covering thing. I know. Something along the line of a head scarf or burka. Which had zippo to do with anything posted so far.

Any process that involves throwing money, eg. carbon taxes, at a bunch of greedy psychopaths, to fix the problem they created is simply BS. Can I remind you of the bailouts and "too big to e'ing fail?" Lot of similarities there, they create the problem and we pay for it and now the assclowns are doing it again.

Yes, you've cracked it wide open! Bailouts were built on a Lie!
Lehman Brothers is NOT dead! It's just resting. Adjusting thermometers. And pining for the glaciers.
Maybe you'd like to try responding in context? That might be a plan huh?
The bailouts were extortion based on the failings and greed of those who control the ponzi scam. Global warming, eg climate change, are just another kind of scam.
Both the bailouts and the alleged "climate change" involve all of us bailing out big corp and bankers again, and for what?

I believe I did, humorously.

What is the evidence for this global warming "scam"? The facts showing evidence of the phenomena which caused the financial bubble and crash were contemporaneously discovered and exposed immediately.
Why compare the sociology and herd behaviors of people in a financial market to phenomena governed by timeless laws of physics?
It's entirely illogical, equivalent to saying "Hey the top 40 songs are different every year so we shouldn't believe the chemists about cyanide!"
There's no relationship. The physics and study of human-induced global warming has been in play since the mid 1960's, continuously with a major scientific effort.
Both the bailouts and the alleged "climate change" involve all of us bailing out big corp and bankers again, and for what?
In what way does cilmate change "bail out big corp and bankers again"?
And "for what"? Given that mass extinction of species and civilizations is highly correlated with climate changes the "for what" is self-evident: preservation of anything like decent human civilization on the Earth.

Are you trying to tell the people of ATS that we are not responsible for the ~40% rise of CO2 we have experienced in the past half century or so?
Since you claim career experience in physics , could you perhaps show a good residence time calculation of CO2 in the atmosphere?
All carbon tax revenue is recycled through tax reductions – The government has a legal requirement to present an annual plan to the legislature demonstrating how all of the carbon tax revenue will be returned to taxpayers through tax reductions. The money will not be used to fund government programs.

You really do like to muddy the waters with silly threads like this don’t you?.
Me thinks you’re kicking up some pretty muddy water of your own there. Your narrative is indicative of the kind of skeptic mindset that way overcomplicates everything to avoid the simple facts:

0.04 percent of the total atmosphere, a precious little trace element. You want simple facts:
how about an extra 5.7 billion precious souls exhaling since 1885. That should account for your 200ppm easily with some to spare.
.....
Your narrative is indicative of the dogmatic mindset that is going to seriously mess up our planet. Why don't you stop waisting valuable time and energy on this contrived rubbish, and concentrate on the serious damage being done to the planet with Radiation, Deforestation, Herbicides, Pesticides, Sulphides, PCB's the list goes on, pumped onto the land and into the atmosphere. CO2 is the very least of our problems.
All hail CO2 you lovely life giving miracle gas.
You have been brainwashed beyond help, I hope you do realise one day because you are currently misleading a lot of people, and that is not good for the soul I'm afraid.
