Proof that global warming is REAL...

[kronus]

Stephen, is that... Farbin in your avatar?

[Danny]

yes

[Stephen]

i feel the dynamic between farbin's gaze into the horizon creates an interesting dialougue with the e30 in the greenery present in my signature

Last Sunday! I'm in New Jersey now, though.

Congratulations, IIRC you were living in the southland no? If so welcome to northern California.

Stephen and Kronus: Your sigs are eerily similar. Its that post thing on the left that gets me

[Cyrano]

more like global cooling brother... Its actually caused by the natural cycles of the sun that cause this change in the weather. And its actually not so bad down here in socal. Its almost June and today was the first hot day that we go, around 93

I was in the outskirts of LA. From my limited time in the Bay, it was pretty awesome.

You need to wake up and look around, there is way more SCIENCE coming out against the GW in general and really against the human caused shit. Its also starting to come out that all the structure and BIG proponents of it pushing it as nothing more than a system to redistribute wealth. That and use your common sense and deductive reasoning about all those that tell us the sky is falling and Ocean is going to rise a bizillion feet, but are buying beach front property in CA and FL, thats not a good move unless you know its not gonna happen.

You know that volcano in iceland, yeah that thing is emitting more co2 than all of humanity, so to stop the earth for getting hot, should we stop all energy production and use to off set for that???

you know that CO2 is like .03% of the atmosphere and make up less than 2% of all green house gasses, the most prevalent is water vapor. its 98% of all the green house gasses in the atmosphere, and something 4 times more efficient than co2 at trapping heat. Last time I checked plants need the co2 survive an make O2 for us to survive. Use some critical thinking please.


Kronus man, GW is a more politcal than anything this is why I will not discuss it here. You know this already though.

This is intriguing, please tell me more.

global warming should not be called global warming. it should be called global climate change.

global warming should not be called global warming. it should be called global climate change.

Exactly. And I do believe that global climate change is occuring - in fact, its been happening for a long long time (way before we became industrialized). This planet has heated and cooled many times over without the influence of us and our technological advancements in the last couple of centuries. Whether our activities is impacting the change in climate is debatable.....but to say it is the only reason is being short sighted at best. There is still a lot of unknown discoveries re: our planet, and yet some folks seem to claim they know everything and have all the answers.

The whole argument is bullshit. Of course the climate is changing,,,, change is constant. However man is not causing it. It is a natural occurance, it will always and has always happened. The excuse that man is causing it is nothing more than a ploy by politicians, and so called scientists, who live off of the funding to prove it! Not much money or jobs in proving otherwise. You cant lobby for a CO2 tax if you dont first fabricate a reason for it..... Also, like I have said before plants become more effiecent at higher CO2 concentrations. Esp C4 plants ie... corn. Wouldnt that be terrible if we were able to produce more food. We better stop this before it gets out of hand.

all i know is that the cali weather is getting really weird ( still love it) but it could go from 98 degrees one day, to raining the next, cold and windy 3 days after and back to either hot or raining.

what do you want to know????

Global warming is a hoax that has been hyped up by the media. Its a natural change in the weather patterns. A warming period has occurred many times throughout history.

What he said. I did my senior project on it and our emissions are 1/10000th of the total atmosphere
