Bush has called for greater reliance on technology to combat global warming. Although early in his first term, he had insisted that the science of what causes global warming was not yet settled, more recently he has been less questioning of a link between human activity and higher global temperatures, and supportive of programs to tackle the problem.

Refer to the graph plotting the CO2 levels in the Vostok Ice Cores - http://www.mongabay.com/images/external/2005/co2_var2.jpg

It is clear that there is less CO2 today than during the peak CO2 readings at anytime in the past, long before the industrial era.

The spike shown in the picture occurs in the future and is only a guess.

A close up of the chart shows that CO2 at present is declining.

Even the worse case in this graph has co2 levels rising 100ppm or just 0.01%

An increase of 100ppm means 999,900ppm remains unchanged.

Put that in perspective. On a 100 yard football field, 100ppm of the length of that field is a whooping thickness of a shoestring.

And for this people are running around in a panic? Please, tell me this just isn't just mass hysteria!

Not a media article, we know silly things are said there. Not someone's blog. Not a paper that says the Sun is more important than the IPCC says. Not a paper that you interpret as saying it's the Sun.

There have been plenty saying unequivocally it's not (mostly) the Sun. For example:

Recent oppositely directed trends in solar
climate forcings and the global mean surface
air temperature, Lockwood, Frohlich (2007), Proc. R. Soc. A, doi:10.1098/rspa.2007.1880

"Our results show that the observed rapid rise in
global mean temperatures seen after 1985 cannot be ascribed to solar variability, whichever of the mechanisms is invoked and no matter how much the solar variation is amplified."

So I'm looking for a paper that says unequivocally 51% or more of the warming in the last 20 years or so is due to the Sun. There have been a few, but they've all been conclusively refuted.

People keep saying "It's the Sun" with no proof. Show me some unequivocal proof.

I've been reading websites about global warming (fun...), which all talk either in terms of parts per million (ppm, currently approximately 380 ppm globally) or emissions in metric tons.

What I don't understand is, how many metric tons of carbon dioxide equal one of those ppm floating around in the atmosphere? As a bonus question, how much emissions in metric tons do people say is sustainable at X number of ppm in the atmosphere? I've read that in the past (prior to the industrial revolution) it was about 300 ppm...

Hopefully that makes sense.

Has anyone quantified the amount of Nitrous Oxide emission by using fertilizers like urea and if so in which location and on what crop has this research been carried out?

someone could create a filter for the exhaust ? Maybe something to convert the co2 and other harmful things to the ozone .....?

Does anyone know websites of people who argue that global climate change is not occuring? I was looking for some and have only been able to find one website. Any help would be greatly apprectiated.

Thanks in advance.

I went by a high school this morning and the parking lot was packed! These people get FREE, almost door to door bus service. I wish I could get a bus to work like that. It would be great. It's a shame.

While some activists have been loudly saying that the meat farming industry is one of the major causes for accelerated global warming, the actual policy makers have been encouraging the production of synthetic fuel produced from beef tallow, pork lard, and chicken fat.

There is a big push to make this the new international replacement to fossil fuels by global warming lobbyists:

Reported at http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6981476.stm is one of the real fears of climate change consequences. Climate conditions change just a little for new diseases to begin to invade new areas. "A debilitating tropical virus carried by mosquitoes has become established in Europe for the first time." This is a clear enough statement. This is not a cyclical effect but a sign of the times. Even more worrying is the statement "... the Italian outbreak was a world first outside the tropics. " and the punch line "There is no vaccine against chikungunya. "

Are the evil oil companies in cahoots with the aliens to cause global warming in the solar system?

Or maybe it has to do with high activity of fussion reaction we call The Sun? HMM

The average temperature on earth is rising, the coral in the oceans is getting bleached, more and more species are on the brink of extinction due to human expansion and advancement. Yet we still burn carbon based fuels that release CO2 which has been out of circulation in our atmosphere for many 100's of millions of years and think that nothing will change....

How does Galileo's position that the Earth is not the center of the universe parallel the doubters' and scientists' position on global warming?
