I cant help but laugh. and I'm the brainwashed one? I'm the one who should watch more european news? they got you good dude. just admit you dont know whats going on. and neither do I. but I wont sit back and suck in all teh bullshit you see on tv.
In their report the pentagon notes that there is a historical tendancy for particular regions to experience periods of abrupt cooling within periods of general warming; see page 6 of the pentagon report below. Regardless you should know that any one season is of little relevance and contributes little to understanding the overall trends.
Wait, so are you saying that global warming theory can be used for political ends? Like, foreign politicians use it to harm the interests of more powerful countries? My ears deceive me - I can't believe they would do such a thing!
And I thought global warming was about pure science. I suppose I was just being naive. or maybe sarcastic.
Here is a pentagon report assessing the national security implications:
I'm wondering what people feel is mankinds contribution to climate change. Do you feel we're responsible for 10% of the change? 50% of the change?
To me this is the most unreported and unresearched aspect of climate change. As it's this number that dictates where dollars should be spent.
Edit: The other important question is, Do you think that the effects of climate change are reversable? If so, what is the reversal time frame?
Again this is an important question with regards to where and how money should be spent.
If you think climate change is primarily manmade and reversable over a short period of time putting money into preventing climate change is the smart thing.
If you think climate change is primarily manmade but not reversable over a short period of time putting money into both preventing climate change and adapting to climate change is the smart thing.
If you think climate change is primarily natural and hance not reversable putting money into adapting to climate change is the smart thing.
According to the IPCC:
"There is at least a 90 percent chance that human activities have caused the planet to warm up...The latest science assessment from this group finds that the planet is very likely to keep on warming rapidly as the result of human activities."

Please note, no where does it say that there is at least a 90% chance human activity is the sole cause leading the planet to warm up.

That was a very interesting article. This is the kind of needle in a haystack material that keeps me coming back here. Most (I dunno 90%) of our sea floor is undiscovered, so what this guy is saying makes a lot of sense. We as humans can only account for what we are aware of.
Certainly we know enough already to understand that it all goes back and forth in cycles.
My only beef is that the dinosaur extinction could have been caused by a huge impact which would have torn a pretty large (miles wide?) hole in the crust would have released all kinds of gasses etc...
That and the 20 years to doomsday...and the god references.
Aside from that, he poses a very convincing argument.
Interesting read.
LOL.

How many time do i have to tell you i don't watch the news i don't even own a zombie box. So that kind of makes it a little hard.
No i don't know everything on the subject i don't pretend to, but i do know that all the scientists that dismiss it are payed by the big corps. Now i wonder what the agenda is there.
Tell me what is the agenda of the scientist who's studying purely for the sake of it?
Keep on rockin in the free world!!!!
The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.
I don't think there's much doubt that the planet is experiencing climatic changes .
What percentage of this is caused by man , and how much is down to mother nature is debateable .
