According to the Earth System Research Laboratory of the
US National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, the May
monthly mean CO2 concentration measured at Mauna Loa was
389.47 ppmv. This is a new maximum for this data set,
the longest term and most frequently referenced CO2 data.


Also, according to the IPCC WG1 AR4 list of robust findings:


"Current atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and CH4,
and their associated positive radiative forcing,
far exceed those determined from ice core
measurements spanning the last 650,000 years."


•• More AGW hogwash
NOAA takes measurements on top of an active volcano

Talk about loading the dice.
Then they talk about "positive radiative forcing"
which is nothing more than a smokescreen for
junk science.

In real science the burden of proof is always on
the proposer, never on the sceptics. So far
neither IPCC nor has anyone else provide one
iota of valid data for global warming nor have
they provided data that climate change is being
effected by commerce and industry, and not by
natural phenomena.


Yes, atmosphereic CO2 is indeed monitored from the largest active
volcanoe in the world. Not what I would think to be the brightest
idea. What they say they try to do, is to make adjustments for out-
gassing of CO2 from the volcanoe. How well they are able to do that,
how they do it, and how precise their adjusments are, I'm not sure.
There should certainly be questions asked and answered.

In my opinion, there are far better places in the world to measure
atmospheric CO2 then the top of an active volcanoe which belches that
very gas from the crater and several vents and cones and the
occasional lava flow.

What bright mind came up with that location ? And who were the
bright minds that agreed to it?


Funny, the volcano doesn't show up in the data. They match everywhere
else. lol
