And...We're Back! The Greenhouse Effect Jan 18, 2024

Show notes

Today, we re-visit one our earliest episodes that we recorded when this whole thing began. We've decided to do a small series on Earth's climate and feel that this is the best kickoff point for that topic.
We begin by discussing the forgotten history of climate science. This is important because we have known the physics of greenhouse gases for over 200 years. This pre-dates excessive fossil fuel consumption and any thought of political ideology around climate change. We talk about following the radiation from the sun and the change that takes place when certain photons are absorbed at the Earth's surface. That change in energy is what gets absorbed by the various greenhouse gases. We round out the discussion by talking about several of the important gases and why carbon dioxide is the "big dog" in the discussion. We hope you enjoy!

Slow Carbon - The Rock Carbon Cycle Nov 16, 2023

Show notes

Today, Jesse and Chris tackle the topic of the Slow Carbon Cycle. We've been talking about this for a while now. This is a very complicate cycle that involves many variables. In this episode, we work through some scenarios such as the Himalayan uplift and plug them into the Carbon Cycle. It's a little bit of mental gymnastics. The ingredients for the Carbon Cycle to operate are freshly exposed rock, water (both in the oceans and the atmosphere), and plate tectonics. If one of these variables is taken out, the Carbon Cycle ceases.
Join us in this fun and interesting discussion.
