No one other than, Svante Arrhenius, in 1896. If you took chemistry in high school or university that name should ring a bell. He's the dude that introduced and defined that acids are substances that dissociate in water to form hydrogen ions (H+) and bases are substances that dissociate and ionizes in water to form hydroxide ions (OH-).


Here's the paper, http://www.rsc.org/images/Arrhenius1896_tcm18-173546.pdf, but aint nobody got time for that. Heres the important excerpt.

Arrhenius’s paper is the first to quantify the contribution of carbon dioxide to the greenhouse effect (Sections I-IV) and to speculate about whether variations in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide have contributed to long-term variations in climate (Section V). Throughout this paper, Arrhenius refers to carbon dioxide as “carbonic acid” in accordance with the convention at the time he was writing.

Contrary to some misunderstandings, Arrhenius does not explicitly suggest in this paper that the burning of fossil fuels will cause global warming, though it is clear that he is aware that fossil fuels are a potentially significant source of carbon dioxide (page 270), and he does explicitly suggest this outcome in later work.

Also from Wikipedia

Arrhenius estimated based on the CO2 levels at the time, that reducing levels by 0.62 – 0.55 would decrease temperatures by 4–5 °C (Celsius) and an increase of 2.5 to 3 times of CO2 would cause a temperature rise of 8–9 °C in the Arctic.[20][17] In his book Worlds in the Making he described the "hot-house" theory of the atmosphere.[21]

Just thought this was pretty interesting that this guy knew what was going to happen. He was highly respected in the science world, i wonder why world leaders and the industrialists at the time chose to ignore him. Walle greed and money turns men into monsters. Been thinking about climate change lately since it's so warm here. wallahi i love climate change tho haha, f*ck snow and cold ass winters

from the title i was expecting a somalisiilaanyolaugh

lol my bad. I think I've been influenced by all the click baity titles I read on my Facebook feed. Still I was surprised because politicians today try to make it seem like the idea of climate change is some recent phenomena. Never knew the idea was more than a 100 years old, that's why i shared

Noooooo I love snow.... hehe this was actually my project in college... I never realised how deep carbon science is.... This is why I love watching nature's microworlds documentary.... you learn the beauty of life... lool I get super excited and inspired *puts on her gigantic geeky glasses*

Dog eat dog world meehn... omg have you seen the way they critique each other's ideas???... How many scientist's work been dismissed only later on to have been worthy of nobel prize... such xaasid world!.... lol I learnt the wisdom behind 'envy eats hasanat like fire does wood' and 'wish for your brother what you wish for yourself'

I don't know what it is.... 2 individuals can be presenting exactly the same thing, but we can accept one person's idea without even questioning while we seek every fault we can find in the other person's idea.... ist power? charisma? the confidence they have in their idea?... Human perception is funny >,,<

lol wallahi sometimes I hate trying to read your weird writing style, its so hard to read at times >,,<

I love snow too...until it snows like 60cm and I have to wake up at 5am to shovel the drivewayy for a hour. f*ck that. It's a good workout, but I'd rather get my workout in the gym than the fucking freezing driveway at 5am in the morning

Why are you surprised how deep carbon science is? I mean carbon is the building block of life because of it's chemical and bonding properties. It's by far the most important element to living things, and with the carbon cycle allowing it to stay plentiful in nature all the time we gonna get sum deep shit

*Downloading Nature microworld cuz i liked the other BBC Earth documentaries* :axvmm9o:

LOOOOOOL you using this >,,< ** :axvmm9o:.... eeeeeeks it actually looks weird reading it.... *pours sand inside @syntax latest pair of trainers and....* nvm actually ill do the threat thing rn......

I'm gonna record short story on this to test my so called cartoonish voice.... I think I have accepted it *wipes tears*
