‘“Trenberth was talking about the ongoing problem of getting Earth’s energy budget to balance, which is not something that happens all by itself’
Vaughan. I have exciting news for you. The Earth’s energy budget does indeed balance itself. And has done so since it first came to pass as a planet 4.5 Bn ya. All the time.
It may be that all the intellectual might ( 
) of Trenberth and his gang haven’t been able to figure out how it does it yet. But that is a different argument.
As the great George Carlin so perceptively remarked
‘The planet is fine. It is the people who are f*****d’
