  1. It won’t!
    Global Warming is not due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This in fact is the greatest deception in the history of science. We are wasting time, energy and trillions of dollars while creating unnecessary fear and consternation over an issue with no scientific justification.
    Why is it that when scientists who have studied the Global Warming phenomenon for years say that humans are not the cause nobody listens? Why does no one acknowledge that the Emperor has no clothes on?

    You can’t find a real scientist anywhere in the world who can look you in the eye and, without hesitation, without clarification, without saying, kinda, mighta, sorta, if, and or but…say “yes, global warming is with us.”

    There is no evidence whatsoever to support such claims. Anyone who tells you that scientific research shows warming trends – be they teachers, news casters, Congressmen, Senators, Vice Presidents or Presidents – is wrong. There is no global warming.

    “There has been no significant global warming since 1995, no warming since 1998, and global cooling for the past few years,” former U.S. Senate Environment Committee spokesman Marc Morano writes at ClimateDepot.com. Citing metrics gathered by University of Alabama, Huntsville’s Dr. Roy Spencer, Morano adds: “The latest global averaged satellite temperature data for June 2009 reveal yet another drop in Earth’s temperature … Despite his dire warnings, the Earth has cooled 0.74 degrees F since former Vice President Al Gore released ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ in 2006.”
    Suddenly affecting lemming-like qualities and following Ozone Al’s teachings like a bunch of blind Patagonian Sheep would qualify as something really stupid.
    You’re not likely to do that, are you?

    “Watch out, Al Gore. The glaciers will get you!”

  2. As you probably already know, the Earth has undergone periodic warming and cooling many, many times over its 4.5 billion year history. None, incidentally, were caused by human beings. The most recent warming period is responsible, as an example, for the 1 1/2 mile thick continental ice sheet that sat atop much of North America to slowly melt away. However, at the present time we are experiencing a cooling trend, the result of an unusually quiescent Sun.

  3. Looking back at the warmer times in history such as the medieval warming period, England was growing grapes in Northern England. They were not under water, and given that it is too cold to grow grapes in northern England now, clearly it was warmer then. So I don’t think you have to worry about flooding but you can look forward to drinking more wine if any more global warming takes place.

    Wow some one does not know their Scientific facts. CO2 and other greenhouse gasses have nothing to do with the ozone layer. That was supposedly caused by CFCs (not a greenhouse gas). Funny thing is that when we found this hole in the ozone layer, it was not because we had been studying the ozone layer for centuries and found that the hole was growing, it was by accident. It could have always been there, we don’t know. We do know the CFCs tend to break down O3. These fluorocarbons though are heavy molecules, What seems doubtful is that the CFCs could go high enough in the atmosphere to hit the ozone layer.

    Global warming is more about demonizing CO2. This evil gas that allows plants to live is going to destroy us all. Oh nooo. A warm environment like what was seen in the medieval warm period didn’t cause floods then, but will killl us all now. Forgive me for not accepting appocolyptic advice from Al Gore. Maybe I should be more like him and fly all over the world in my private jet, chastissing others for using fossil fuels. Maybe I should also wear leather shoes and tell people it is wrong to eat meat.

    Your biggest problem, however, is that you have so little evidence of global warming, that you now say climate change (possibly because the earth has been cooling lately). THE CLIMATE ALWAYS CHANGES. It always has, it always will. This is no better than astrological logical prediction that you will meet somebody. You do not base science off of a general statement, like we are going to see changes, thus man caused them. The climate changed when man wasn’t around and it will change long after we have gone extinct.

    If you don’t believe, then let me tell you that I am psychic. I can predict the future. Let me prove it to you. Something that you do today will be different that what you did yesterday. If I end up being right, I would ask you to believe in my psychic powers and give your money to me, not the greeners.

  4. I hope you do believe that global warming is happening and is not a made-up story or whatever else people may call it, because it’s pretty scary.

    Right now, the North and South pole are melting away[yes even at this moment!] because of the hole in the Ozone Layer [which is because of pollution!] . The melted ice will flow into the major oceans like the Pacific and Atlantic. For that, the sea levels will rise by aLOT, causing low lands like netherland to sink. Also, pollution from product waste and garbage causes a hole in the Ozone layer, which is a very dangerous thing… because the ozone protects earth from the very strong UV rays, but if there is a hole the UV rays will directly enter the atmosphere. When that happens, it causes much harm to animals and human, like blinding the sheeps in Argentina. It also causes human skin cancer… Another big problem here is that the bees are disappearing. Without them, there is no way to produce food! And of course, without food, it’s absolute panic…. Why is that that the bees help farming? It’s kinda a long story, so please look at this for more info about that… http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/02/070223-bees.html

    Uhm another thing:
    If you say global warming, you can also say climate change. And it’s not a very easy change. Unexpected hurricanes, occuring in the most uncommon places… Raising temperatures, increasing degrees by the year… And droughts. You’ll get alot of those… not to forget shortage of water. Which leads to WAR for WATER.

    it’s really sad that there are still many people who think global warming’s not true and is nothing at all. Maybe they would like to be “better safe than sorry”? We don’t have any proof that global warming is actually happening that would convince 100% OF THE WORLD, but we have lots of proof to convince many. And yes, there are scientists that can look you in the eye and say YES Global warming is happening *cough cough* Because, as much as people think that there aren’t actual proof to prove global warming, there aren’t any proof that global warming DOESN’T exist. And because there is still a whole bunch of people who don’t believe in global warming, it would turn out a panic when global warming finally crashes all down on us. Just like the movie “The 11th Hour”… I hope this really answered your question! I might have gotten off-topic some parts but i tried my best to explain so. =)
