How can there be Global Warming when it's 55f here today? To all of you who believe there is global warming, I ask you.. how much colder is it "supposed" to be? LOL

Having a heat wave I see.

We here are feeling a tad cool too. About 1/2 what it should be normally on the C* scale.

This morning we are a balmy 9*C/48*F. Oh yeah... This shiit has been going on for freakin' weeks. We are normally 18*C/63*F on a day like this in summer in northern BC.

Makes me want to go out and make some greenhouse gases to get things warmer...

Did you hear about the report questioning the validity of the science behind Global Warming that was quashed by the EPA?

It was 93 here three days ago, these sort of anectdotal arguments mean nothing. Become a scientist and study it yourself instead of being an armchair scietific analyst.


myLot reputation of 47/100. sndcain36 (2638)   ranked 601 out of 6,296 in politics  5 months ago

Oh, you mean like the scientists in this article?

http://www.tulsabeacon.com/?p=462 Thousands of scientists sign petition against global warming

Or, maybe you could read the report questioning the validity of the science behind Global Warming. Or, you could if it hadn't been quashed by the EPA.

Yup, I guess that is why Obama buried a report against global climate change.

Sorry, but science if far from being of one mind on this issue.


myLot reputation of 47/100. N4life (349)   ranked 448 out of 6,296 in politics  5 months ago

You are right, "science" is not of "one mind" on this issue. You would be hard pressed to find any issue science is of one mind on. However there is a large majority of qualified scientists who believe it likely man is altering climate throught carbon dioxide. Of course there are many other ways humas are destroying their environmnt. I talk to a couple of scientists regularly who are not convinced man is the primary driving force of climate change. Even they prescribe to the precautionary principle. In other words, why alter the chemistry of our atmosphere and just hope it will not harm us. We have tried that time and time again and it has come back to haunt us both environmentally and financially. We chase our tails with technologies to clean up after our messes that should not have been made in the first place. The longer we let it go, the more it takes a toll on our planet and our wallets.


myLot reputation of 60/100. ParaTed2k (4569)   ranked 394 out of 6,296 in politics  5 months ago

So let's identify the real problems and work out solutions instead of continuing to make policies based on politics or hairbrained crap. There are many solutions but we'll never know any of them because we're too busy listening to total fools like Gore and Kyoto propaganda.

There are scientists on both sides of this debate. I recently read an article that theorized that we were already in the middle of a warming trend caused by the sun, the tilt of the earth, etc., and that human activity was just a drop in the bucket. I don't believe that any changes caused by global warming, whatever the cause, are going to be anywhere near as drastic as the fear mongers are trying to make us believe.

As explained by a local meteorologist in my area it's known as "global dimming" which is connected to "global warming". I did a search and found tons of articles but I'm admittedly not a scientist by any stretch of the imagination so much of it was confusing to me. Here's one article that might help:

That's the problem isn't it. There are all sorts of articles and people of science willing to spew their opinions, but very little actual information to go on.

We are going through a cycle. Right now it is becoming cooler. The Global Warmist want to blame man for everything and will not be happy until all the dogs and cats kept as pets are loose in the street, hunting us as prey, plus those monkeys, lions, and tigers are released from the zoos and roam through the countryside, eating whomever they desire. Or if the people in Northern part of United States and the Prairies in Canada are engulfed in a deep freeze that they will instantly turn to ice when they go out the door.
The reason for this is they forget that man was made in the image of God and God is far from them so they have to blame man.

Glad I don't own a public pool LOL!! I remember growing up we were at the pool from memorial day to early September, now I swear the last couple years its been too cold to swim till July. Global warming is nothing more then a bogus economic shift to those invested in wind farms and alternative energy. DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW!!

Very clever, Ted:

Global warming is a myth.
The ice caps aren't melting.
The oceans aren't rising.
The rain forests aren't diminishing.
The average temperature of the ocean isn't rising.
Blue crabs are still plentiful in the East, and salmon is still running at top speed in the West.
Giant coral beds aren't dying.
The ozone layer is fine.

Oh yes, it's very clear. We aren't destroying our global habitat. And if we are, our kids will be fine. They'll figure out something to fix the problem--if it's a problem.

So we'll just keep on doing bidnez as usual. The kids can have what's left. It's their problem anyway. We'll have ours--our SUVs, cheap oil and cheaper coal, and all the food we can waste. That's clearly what's important.

We owe the future NOTHING.

LET THEM EAT CAKE!

Antarctica is getting colder, not warmer.

Human's are responsible for a mere 3% of greenhouse gasses. Volcanoes are responsible for the rest.

NASA confirmed recently that the sun, not people, is responsible for planet warming.

So, you figure out a way to explain why the south pole is getting colder, impact the carbon footprint of the world's volcanoes and make the sun less hot and you'll save us all.


myLot reputation of 60/100. ParaTed2k (4569)   ranked 394 out of 6,296 in politics  5 months ago

So how cold is it supposed to be right now?

You're not missing much right now...rain...rain and more rain. I hope these weather patterns aren't a sign of things to come for the summer. Then again, with the recent jump in the cost of smokes all this rain might be good for the tobacco crop I'm thinking about putting in my front yard. thumbup
