(Know a difference between an aperture and an aperture ratio?; photos taken by EEE Reporter.)SECTION I: CO2, Water, Sun Rays, etc. Differentiated and Feed-Backed
Any incident "f" which changes along with time "t" can be expressed around a certain time point "a" as follows:
f(t) = f(a) + [Changing Portion around the time "a"]
This is called the Taylor expansion, mathematically.
More specifically,
f(t) = f(a) +
f'(a)(t-a) +
(1/2!)f''(a)(t-a)**2 +
(1/3!)f'''(a)(t-a)**3 + ...
Or, f(t) = [Fixed Portion at Time "a"] + [Changing Portion around Time "a"]
This can be regarded as a kind of feedback system, though "t" may increase or decrease continuously.
The change in the temperature "T" on the earth must be caused by CO2 (a change in the amount of carbon dioxide) and other factors.
T(t) = CO2(t) + g(t) + h(t) + ...
Yet, as g(b) + h(b) + ... can be zero being offset, we may mostly see CO2 on observation at any time point of "b," namely T(b) = CO2(b).
But, still the changing portions of g(t) and h(t) might have some significance especially when applying a feedback theory in a digital manner.
T(b+1) = CO2(b) + [Changing and Feed-Backed Portion of g(b), h(b),...]
+ CO2(b-1) + [Changing and Feed-Backed Portion of g(b-1), h(b-1),...] + ...
The change in temperature might consist of the change in CO2 and secondary or more subtle changes in other hidden factors being feed-backed altogether without being offset. It is so, since some large coefficients might apply to those hidden factors unlike the Taylor expression.
Additionally, an ever-fixed amount of energy on the earth can change temperature if its entropy changes.
Civilization inevitably increases entropy along with time as it consumes energy and materials while consumption is a process of increasing entropy.
And, applying a feedback system to entropy might be a little difficult for the U.N.
SECTION II: Werner Sombart (1863-1941)
A notable 19th-century French scholar found to his surprise that American Christianity was so different from that practiced in France and Europe.
20th-century German scholar Werner Sombart found to his surprise that American Christianity was so close to Judaism.
He wrote that most of what they called Americanism was nothing but Judaistic spirit that had flowed in America.

---------------
German socialism is accompanied by the Volksgeist (national spirit) which is not racial in the biological sense but metaphysical: "the German spirit in a Negro is quite as much within the realm of possibility as the Negro spirit in a German".[5] The antithesis of the German spirit is the Jewish spirit, which is not a matter of being born Jewish or believing in Judaism but is a capitalistic spirit.[6] The English people possess the Jewish spirit and the "chief task" of the German people and National Socialism is to destroy the Jewish spirit.[6]
....
In Sociology, mainstream proponents still regard Sombart as a 'minor figure' and his sociological theory an oddity; today it is more philosophical sociologists and culturologists who, together with heterodox economists, use his work. Sombart has always been very popular in Japan. One of the reasons of a lack of reception in the United States is that most of his works were for a long time not translated into English - in spite of, and excluding as far as the reception is concerned, the classic study on Why there is no Socialism in America.

However, I think that only a few people, less than a million, among the well educated Japanese might know Werner Sombart.
(By English Search, 88,100 hits were returned, while by Japanese Search, 14,900 hits were returned, for "Werner Sombart." For a key word "Max Weber," 1,730,000 and 155,000, respectively. Japan is not anti-Judaistic.)
The economic globalization neglects difference in religion in the global economies and markets.
It looks like a policy or an idea naturally devised in New York where American Christianity and American Judaism have been merging together...

Mar 10:20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.
Mar 10:21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
Mar 10:22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
