      @@MichelvanBiezen In another video, you said that carbon dioxide molecule are not a dipole moment and therefor will have less interactions or degrees of vibrations. In addition, that water vapour in the atmosphere is better at absorbing energy than carbon dioxide water vapour is responsible for about 90 percent of what we call greenhouse effect in the atmosphere and carbon dioxide about 10 percent. Also the two overlap, surely this rules out manmade greenhouse effect?

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It doesn't rule it out completely, but the greenhouse effect of CO2 is far less than is being advertised. And the fact that CO2 already absorbs all of the radiation it can absorb (in the frequency ranges that it can absorb), increase CO2 will have a limited effect.

    Thank you again, Dr. van Biezen, for a not only a science lesson, but a history lesson! You used the term "adventurous" to describe those scuba divers that entered and followed the cave all the way back - that is definitely an understatement in my estimation! I'm not claustrophobic but I know I would not have the nerves to go that far back into an unknown passage even if it wasn't underwater.

    So it was during the end of the ice age before the glaciers started to melt that access was open?
    Looks like several of the paintings have been scratched off.

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes the painting were dated to be about 18,000 to 25,000 years old. The oceans began to rise around 18,000 years ago and the entrance to the cave must have dissapeared under the water about 13,000 to 14,000 years ago.

    How did they see in there? If with fire, how did they breathe in there?

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Back when the oceans were much lower, they could just walk into the cave. Since all caves have air in them, there is no problems with breathing in a cave. Yes, the only method for light back then was torches for light. They learned how they could keep a fire going on a stick to provide light.

      @@MichelvanBiezen The angle of the entrance means all the gases from the fire would go up and get trapped and fill the cave with dangerous gases though.

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Gases tend to mix evenly and will therefore not collect in a single region. But there is no doubt that the air would not be healthy to breath, just like standing around a campfire subject you to breathing smoke filled air.

    Are all of the visible drawings today near the little island i the middle of the cave? If not, the drawings would have been meters above the ground back then.

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Neanderthals are believed to have become extinct about 40,000 years ago, which would put them at pre cave drawing times of those caves discovered in Southern France which were dated to 20,000 to 25,000 years.
