Bastardi asserts that the changes due to carbon dioxide are tiny compared to other factors so it cannot cause global warming.Bastardi, The Climate Chronicles, pp. 22–23 He writes "In the entire geological history of the planet, there has been no known linkage between and temperatures."Bastardi, The Climate Chronicles, p. 27 Bastardi also states that carbon dioxide cannot cause global warming because this would violate the first law of thermodynamics. He has further explained: cannot cause global warming. I'll tell you why. It doesn't mix well with the atmosphere, for one. For two, its specific gravity is 1 1/2 times that of the rest of the atmosphere. It heats and cools much quicker. Its radiative processes are much different. So it cannot -- it literally cannot cause global warming. --- Joe Bastardi, Fox Business, March 9, 2012.
