Global warming is simple physics. We know we are releasing more CO2 into the sky above us. We know molecules reflect radiation. We know this radiation creates heat. We know the increased heat makes the icecaps melt. We know the icecaps reflects rays away from earth better than water, meaning even more heat is absorbed. The heating will also thaw the tundras of the world, where vast amounts of methane are stored. Methane has the same effect as CO2. Heck, water vapor is a lot more potent than CO2, meaning water vapor is even worse for the climate. And when we make everything hotter, more water will evaporate from the oceans.
There are so many interconnected ways that all lead to more and more heat. I can't see how your father can tell you anything else with a straight face. Maybe to stop you from worrying, since we probably have fucked our selves too much all ready... |
He's probably lying, or his father is actually one of those Christian (or maybe some other religion, I don't know) scientists who put their religion before their own work, cherry picking data and believing they know better than even their own peers.
