So let me get this straight about global warming...?

Deb: Keep drinking their kool aid. No, they aren't any more than they ever have been.

Update:

When it's hot, people blame global warming. When it's cold people blame global warming. So pretty much no matter what weather we experience, it is attributed to global warming? Does anyone else sense the insanity in this?

Update 2:

r1b1c: How convenient of you. Why not just change the name to Climate hoax which would be far more appropiate.

Update 3:

Psyphigrad: If a science education is helping those con artists who fabricated studies and emails to push their agendas, no thanks.

Update 4:

lovelyday: or I need to have enough common sense to know how insane it is.

Update 5:

Pocket P: loved your diatribe, now try peddling that garbage to someone who doesn't have any common sense, I'm sure you can find some.

Update 6:

Scout: That's the problem when a society doesn't question things, they get easily fooled. I am nobody's fool.

Update 7:

railroad dave: how gullable are you? I have no "vested interest" in oil companies, I do have a vested interest in not paying through the teeth for something that is a fallacy. Grow up junior.

    MGW is a HOAX! It is not about Global Warming, it is about CONTROL and WEALTH REDISTRIBUTION... Cultural Marxism run amok.

    The alarmists' arguments are based on CORRELATIONS.. CORRELATIONS are NOT proof.

    The 21 IPCC computer models disagree by a factor of 10 (that's 1000%!)

    New PEER REVIEWED data from recently launched satellites show that the IPCC models are WRONG on their prediction of the CO2/Temperature correlation AND its effect on the atmosphere...

    GAME OVER

    Scott?!?

    Here's the simple and short of it for you so you'll understand...

    We humans on the surface of this planet number in the billions, and our pollution and waste output is monumentally and stupendously huge, and it is slowly poisoning the planet at the very same time that we are warring and competing for the last vestiges of resources available to us as the population reaches unsustainably-high numbers, and the north ice melts stranding lonely polar bears on sinking chunks of permafronst, dogs and cats sleeping together, teenage girls going ape-sheet over hairless vampire boyz wearing emo hoods...

    ...do I need to go on?

    Dumping huge amounts of atmospheric gas and smoke and whatever into our environment is "not" going to be good for us (or any other lifeform except bacteria and rats, but that's a whole other answer to a whole other question) and your grandkids are going to look back and down at you and ask with a righteous and indignant accusatory voice of shame...

    "Why, Grandpa? Why did you dump so much green-house gases into the atmosphere even though you knew it would poison us and cause global strife and ruin the future of all mankind? Why, Grandpa, Why?"

    (Kind of like that old commercial where the Native American guy sheds a tear when he sees litter on the highways...)

    well... at the cost of sounding corny, let me say this- you can take a horse to the stream but you cant make it drink.

    we are digging up stuff from the earth, we are not giving anything back, we are releasing poison into the air, water and earth. what we are doing is not right. as simple as that. the temperature is the least of our concerns. if it were just a matter of controlling the temperature, we would just have made more air conditioners.

    does this sound insane to you? maybe it does, we see things from a totally different perspective. when a chap tells me that the earth is round and gives me a reasonable explanation, i accept it. i dont question his guts or sanity.

    you are being told something, to accept it or not is left to you.

    Yes, we are darned if we do, and darned if we don't, it never was about future damage to the earth, it is about control and elaborate schemes to raise a fortune out of people's basic fears, A long time ago, con men went door to door selling lightning rods that would save your barn from burning down in a thunder storm, they told horror stories about fires from lightning bolts, People were and still are frightened by lightning, some run and jump under their beds with the house pets

    reading is fun damental . if you look close , the nay sayers all have some sort of vested interest in the coal or oil industries . for every extra dollar in profit they make by not installing pollution controls , it cost the public 2 dollars extra in health cost for all those extra cases of asthma , cancers , birth defects , etc

    That's why we changed the name to "Climate change", the old name "global warming" was because although some parts of the world will get colder, some warmer, some wetter, some dryer, the mean temperature of the world will go up although not all parts of the world will be warmer. Now, the old name included the word "warming" and uninformed people would make wrong assumptions like you just did.

    It's not insanity. It was prophesied by Al Gore. "Ye shall know the Warming by the temperatures getting hotter. Ye shall know the Warming by the temperatures getting colder. The Warming comes for those who do not sacrifice their SUVs."

    The problem is not the weather, it's what people do to their own environment. People cause pollution. Chemtrails are a result of what people have done.

    There's a huge difference between climate and the weather on any give day in any given location. I hope you get a real scientific education some time in your future.

    Yes and it is dumb . Now they are blaming it for tidal waves and earthquakes.

    Pretty soon they will blame flat tires and low grades on their kids report cards.

    Global warming = take money from America and give it to other countries

    The temperature has nothing to do with it.
