Global Warming

I don't know too much about the topic except for what I've hear from TV and celebrity's. I'm not really that invested as probably should be. But is it a lost cause? Can we REALLY change over DECADES! of planet corruptions within the next few years?

Just goes to show you, huh? Whether it be by the hand of GOD or by MOTHER NATURES pay back. . . humanity won't always be here forever.

THOUGHTS?

When I think of the world ending. Like global warming? It just doesn't seem fair that people of my/our generation will have to suffer from other's mistakes. I am so confused. :( I don't want to be scared but I am.

The next 100 years melting ice could sink cities from the United States to Bangladesh according to the head of the climate science program at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York and a professor at Columbia University

by just telling us what the climate is going to be like in 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years from now? And telling us how they came to their conclusions so we could check their math?

If they were able to do that, what basis would anyone have to deny their findings?

I think that would just shut up all the deniers, wouldn't it?

Think about it. I live in the country and being a male, it is just as convenient to take a whizz outside than inside. Therefore, no electricity is used to pump water from my well to refill the toilet, which means I use no electricity peeing, which means no coal is burned to generate the electricity. If I pee outside my whole life, will it offset enough carbon for even one of Al Gore's jet trips? If all the males peed outside, think of all that carbon not placed in the air, and you get the lawn watered to boot.

The California legislature has been wrestling with signing a budget for months now. They had to either cut must needed programs or raise taxes. Since the price of gas is draining the pocketbooks of many Californians it was decided that those least affected by a gas tax hike would be hybrid car owners. So effective January 1, 2008 all owners of hybrids will be taxed an additional quarter a gallon. Actually the way it will work is that when you buy gas at the pump the quarter per gallon will be included in the price. When you file your state income tax for 2008 in 2009 you will be given a credit for all the extra gas tax you paid in 2008 (with proper documentation) except for those who have a hybrid registered in their name.
I would like your opinion on this bill SB98556.

It spewed more toxic chemicals in the air than all of man made pollution since the beginning of the industrial age? It actually lowered the entire earth's temp by 1.2 degrees.
Think you are contributing to global warming? The earth doesnt even know we are here.

Simply put- if you melt the polar ice caps, ocean levels rise, more water surface to evaporate, more moisture in the atmosphere - more rain,, well you get the idea.

But is there enough water to fill in most valleys, and rivers causing an "island" type landscape rather than the large land masses we see today?

How can anyone say that in a hundred years the climate will change to this extent or to that extent? Global warming advocates are most guilty of this but recently so is the global cooling side. This is arrogant beyond belief. Everyone who has ever watched the news knows that weather cannot be predicted accuratly into the next 12 hours, so why do these people think they can tell us how the weather will be in the year 2107? This questions is not pro or anti global warming, it is just a heads up to people not to believe what you hear from the media or certain enviromental groups about the future of Earth's climate.

They tend to think creationism is correct, many go for the 5,000 year old earth idea. Adding this all together they heap derision on science but then take up the arguement in a very strenuous fashion that global climate change is completely natural. How would they know? They werent there when it happened (one of the great genius arguements that creationists use), there are no books from that time?

now this is simply a hypothetical question: please don't give answers like "it's not possible".

anyways, the question is: if during the next twenty years our climate undergoes global cooling (not necessarily back to the norm -- but down to +.2 or something) how do you think this would effect the scientific community? currently, the vast majority of scientists believe it's real, and this is a community that bases their reasoning on facts and all sorts of fancy technology. if they were wrong, would this damage their credibility/reputation? how? would people be more skeptical of the next enormous scientific theory put forth?

If all the global warming kooks are right, that means well all be dead in a few hundred years and the earth will be rid of us for good. Kinda like a flea bath for a dog. Either way, in a million years humans will probobly be gone and the earth will keep on turning.

Even after claiming to have ended denier funding, it appears exxon is still doing it:

Why is the strategy of exxon so much different from all the other oil companies who do not (or no longer) fund this movement?
