Do you think the 1,000 record low-temps set this week are the product of global warming?

Update:

Yeah, I was there when they changed the name, because they saw the writing on the wall.

    Not just this week. Notice they quit showing the "warming charts" since about 2000.

    The phrase "...the hottest years occurred during the last 10 years..." but no one (in media) asks "was each year hotter than the previous?" That would be a bit embarrassing.

    Also phasing in "Climate Change" to replace "GW".

    *** See idiots throw about the "....99% of scientists...." krapque but no one EVER documents them.

    Thousands of REAL scientists meet annually at "Global Warming Denier" conventions.

    But You'll never hear about it on TV.

    The problem is you don't understand what global warming is. Ignorant people like yourself and those in the right wing media have stirred up so much confusion and denial that scientist were forced to change the name of what they're talking to "Climate Change" rather than "Global Warming". It is still getting warmer. Your confusion comes from the fact that you do not understand the concept of averages. I would suggest you look it up in terms of math and science and you might gain a little insight into just how the Earth's temperature is rising and rising more rapidly than ever before.

    maybe you need to read up on weather vs climate and the effect of the polar jet stream changed due to warming arctic. What part of 'global' did you miss?

  • 8 years ago

    Yes, it very well could be. When abnormally cool temperatures are in the South that means abnormally warm temperatures at the North Pole. That is caused by heat creating above normal turbulence in the atmosphere. Ok people that are still reading I know you are liberal because Conservatives do not want to know the truth.

    It's called climate change, not global warming. Also, 97% of climatologists agree that climate change is caused by humans. Third, learn the difference between climate and weather, climate is long term, weather is short term.

    Seriously, say this with me:

    Weather is not climate

    The average global temperature is still on the rise, as it has been since the industrial revolution.

    Yep, or it could be a cold front. Climatic change is just a theory just like gravity.

    Well, then, if there were 1000 record low-temps., that kind of proves the theory that the climate may be changing.

  • 8 years ago

    Possibly.

    And speaking slowly:

    Global. warming. causes. climate. change.

    Climate. is. not. weather.

    That Damn Mother Nature...screwing up the message.

    But you have to remember, that even "cooling" now is a sign of "climate change"

    And you see, as in the first poster, that after 5 Billion years of changing...... it's no longer supposed to. And liberals know what the appropriate temperature of planet earth should be.

    Those Neanderthals and their coal plants and their SUV's . damn them
