LOL.......are you still to ignorant to admit global warming is for real.......Damn, the bush administration has even accpted that it is real...........

Take a look at the science............

Yeah, let's take a look:

All four agencies that track Earth's temperature (the Hadley Climate Research Unit in Britain, the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York, the Christy group at the University of Alabama, and Remote Sensing Systems Inc in California) report that it cooled by about 0.7C in 2007. This is the fastest temperature change in the instrumental record and it puts us back where we were in 1930. If the temperature does not soon recover, we will have to conclude that global warming is over.

There is also plenty of anecdotal evidence that 2007 was exceptionally cold. It snowed in Baghdad for the first time in centuries, the winter in China was simply terrible and the extent of Antarctic sea ice in the austral winter was the greatest on record since James Cook discovered the place in 1770.

But keep on swallowing the gospel according to Al Gore.

Are you aware that the earth has cooled by .7 degrees centigrade in the last year? That has reversed in 1 year all of the suppposed efffects of global warming over the last century. The variations of the sun and eccentricities of the earth's rotations have far more to do with temperature variations imo. Also, 95% of greenhouse gases are caused by water, not human activity. There is also more greenhouse gas created by the swamps in the world than human activity. Feel free to call me ignorant if you like. It doesn't change the facts.

And thats the promblem.............Global warming doesnt mean that the world is "GETTING WARMER", it is a global climate change...........

Be humble and watch inconvienent truth.........(maybe you have?)

My favorite example (Plolar Bears are being put on the endangered species list.
Why you ask.............(Because they are losing the land that they live one)..


Oh.......and its not Gore preaching this..........He is not a scientist.......Hes just intelligent enough and open minded enough to listen

So "warming" doesn't really mean "warming?" Sounds like he hung around Clinton too long. You're being sold a bill of goods by a fairly large group of environmentalists and scientists pushing an agenda. They don't know any more about what the climate of this planet is going to be like in 50-100 years than you or I do. That's a fact.

Once again... the parallels are uncanny.

If anyone is too blind to see these parallels, then I am scared to see what this country will look like in 30 years...

I think the scientis have a pretty good idea of what is happening........And yes, global warming does not only mean warming.........Sorry.....but true story....One of the proponents of global warming has argued that it should be called "global climate change" (or something like that). because people will only go by the name instead of reading and researching the topic..............Obviously, you have not researched the topic all that much or you would have known this.

Yes, I have researched the topic plenty. Guess what? I found that the climate is in a contant state of flux - always has been, always will be. What's more, these climate models are unable to reverse predict climate patterns that have ALREADY HAPPENED, but I'm supposed to accept their predictions for the future? Sorry, not happening. But you keep the faith that these scientists know exactly what they're talking about. It's that kind of thinking that is why it was accepted as fact that the Earth was flat and the center of the universe for centuries.

Yes........also that Capernicus did not really see moons around Jupiter so the cathloic chruch sentenced him to house arrest because it wasnt in the bible..
i believe that in 1982 the cathloic church finally accepted that he was right.

Question: How old do you believe the earth is?

I believe the Earth to be several billion years old, personally. Which is what makes predicting future climate patterns (which contain HUNDREDS of MILLIONS of variables) all the more trickier - these models typically only use statistical samples of weather patterns over the last several hundred years at the MOST - not a large enough sample to make an accurate prediction for a planet that is several billion years old, sorry. And considering the hundreds of millions of variables involved in the Earth's climate, it's extremely difficult (if not impossible, even with the supercomputers currently available) to make accurate predictions based on the changing of one or even several variables (greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, in this case). There's still a bit too much Kentucky windage and guesswork involved in the prediction of future climate patterns for me to take them at face value without questioning them.
