Sure
why doesn't the other 97% of that flux affect the climate?
You are saying humans create 3% this number is really small so how can it create an increase in co2
But I’m saying
In the bucket case
why does the natural co2 flux not have a greater effect than human produced co2?
If the system is at equilibrium and you increase the flow by just 3% water in the bucket will increase
stop with the analogies
you are bad at them
Why is it a bad analogy it shows such a small percentage of 3 can fuck over an equilibrium system. Systems in the environment remove co2 and add co2 then humans come along then add 3% more carbon dioxide. Well guess what your equilibrium system is fucked. The water is going to rise. Just like we see co2 concentrations rise in the environment
It’s actually a great analogy in my opinion
if you can't accept that a bucket filled with water is a bad analogy for the Earth's atmosphere then you are either willfully ignorant or intellectually dishonest. I have no time for either.
No
I am not saying it’s the same as the earth atmosphere I am disputing your claim that is basically humans create 3% this number is small why would it effect the system as a whole
It’s kind of a beautiful analogy
it's not my claim that human produced co2 is 3% of annual flux. it is fact.
Yes
But you are saying this number is insignificant right?
compared to the 97% of natural annual flux. yes.
how is this hard?
3% flow of water increase seems insignificant
But
No. Stop. I can't take anymore buckets
In an equilibrium system 3% increase can fuck it over
what about the 97%?
The 97% is just flows out the hole.
do you understand what "annual flux" is?
Yup
Okay
So in the bucket situation you think increasing the input flow by 3% will cause nothing to happen because it’s an insignificant number? @oojimaflip
it's not a "bucket situation"
jeez
No answer the question
Will it
Or will it not
fuck the bucket. I'm done.
don't ping me again
Dude it’s just a simple hypothetical
if you really want to avoid a catastrophe; go talk to China and India, when they agree to forego their own industrial revolution in order to lower their co2 emissions to "sustainable" rates, then we can talk about *what more the west should do.*
since you haven't adequately answered any of my questions I'm going to refuse to entertain any of your naiive hypotheticals.
