So Reductitron asked me this in the Trump thread regarding climate change:
**"we humans are not to blame in the least"
How would you design the science experiment to prove that?
It'd be quite easy actually. Consider most so called climate deniers believe it's the Sun and Volcano's not humans to blame. So we'd try to prove which gas simply blocks more heat and or light. So, we'd have two ballons, thermometers, some grow/heat lights, light sensors and one cylinder of CO2 and another of SO2 (sulfur dioxide, the same gas volcano's belch out).
First, insert light sensors and thermo's into ballon.
Second, fill one balloon with each different gas. Make sure to compesensate % in case one is denser..
Third, monitor readings of light and heat inside the ballons in different situations. Left out in the day light all day, then place inside an aquarium/hot box, leave lights over it, check readings of light and heat and compare. Maybe submerge them in sea water to check underwater differences.
If the SO2 has lower readings, then Shogun is technically right and has been right all along and ALL Y'ALL ARE A BUNCH OF FOOLS FOR FALLING FOR TRULY MAN MADE GLOBAL ARMING. Cool part about this is, any local University can perform this experiment. Probably a decent grower could too lols.
Its how it starts though and its simple and uncovoluted.
In terms of science stating an answer it starts with a question or theory that has some reasonable measure of success, or a question for which there is no known answer. The problem with your experiment is that it's not needed as science already knows the answer to your question. Where your experiment really fails though in relation to climate change is that it makes no consideration for the level of these and other gases in the atmosphere and what their sources might be. Unfortunately, for deniers who assume that solar flares and volcanic activity contribute a great enough effect to climate change as to render human causes inconsequential, they happen to be wrong on that point. It's is pretty clear by now that human activity is the most significant contributor to climate change, particularly over the past 100 years or so and many would argue even going all the way back to the Industrial Revolution.
Yes you've asked a very simple question, unfortunately it's one that happens to provide very little insight into what's driving climate change.
