had we put the man hours into reducing worlwide pollution we would not have wasted (polluted ) airwaves and minds of many who fell for all 3 falsehoods.

yes youre in denial, i did say we would have cleaned up the world pollution but you didn thear that bc you have your gray matter stuck up al gores global butt warming. sars was to have killed half the world by now, Y2K was to have crippled it and toppled our goverment and the socio economics of the planet and we were all to be frozen to death bc of gloabl warming effects from the 1980s creating an ice age by 2000. believe the lies, the studies clearly show global warming isnt real. but it sure is fun to brag youre making a world of difference isnt it?

the polar caps have thawed and reformed atleast 3x so far, it didnt ever end the world

2006-07-09 01:08:56 · update #2

co2 has been shown to be beneficial FACT no amounts of co2 in the poorest of countries without restrictions have no globla wamring greenhouse effects and do have a beneficial effect on their surrounding woodlands. know the facts not gores *** pimples. read the actual reports then decide not listen to anyones lies. and why is it nearly 20,000 have proved the reports of less than 200 sci guys have deliberately falsified reports on global greenhouse effects especially co2?

Here is something to think about don't believe me check this stuff out...

1.Water(H2O) is the only element known to man to expand when it freezes every other element contracts when it freezes so that is the first fact. For example fill a milk jugg with water, now stick it in the freezer... come back later and it will have exploded from preassure of freezing water.

2.Icebergs are massive chunks of ice, only a few percent of the ice is above water, which means the rest of the ice is underwater.

3.The ice underwater because water expands when it freezes is displacing the liquid water. So when that iceberg melts all the ice under the water will contract and fill a smaller space, so the level of the water will be less now because the ice which was displacing the liquid water is unfrozen and now occupies a less amount of space.

4.Scientific models show that if all the ice on this planet melted we would see a 3" DROP in ocean levels NOT a rise but a DROP.

Now isn't that interesting.

Now for the greenhouse gasses.

1.Plants LOVE a carbon dioxide rich air supply.

2.The more carbon dioxide their is the faster they grow.

3.Plants use photosynthesis to get their food so they can grow.

4.When the plants sense a higher level of carbon dioxide they will make up for it by sucking up more and more and one of the products of photosynthesis is OXYGEN!!

5.So no matter how much CARBON DIOXIDE there is the plants will COMPENSATE and suck up more and grow faster and bigger. and the bigger the plant is the more OXYGEN it produces through photosynthesis

Actually Global Warming is Very real. What you have to understand it that the difference between a stable frozen water and melting water is only one degree. The hotter it gets the faster ice melts. There may have only been an average increase of 5 degrees in 50 years, but that would have caused polar ice melting to accelerate none the less.

I doubt it's really anything that we will have to worry about in our lifespan but in a couple of generations it could lead to some serious problems. This is why the world has tried to become more economical conscious. The changes we are making are not for us, but for our grandchildren.

GLOBAL WARMING/THE ENVIRONMENT IN GENERAL

Any and I mean any environmental cause or approach must be grassroots in nature. Having PhD's talk about global warming and having those representing industry interests debunk these present theories is a high level and almost an entirely futile effort. Don't get me wrong, it is great that someone with Al Gore's connections and exposure is getting the word out. However, people are people they want to see results.

Yes, the expression is now trite but still true, "Thing Globally, Act Locally". Watching the sky over a city, town or even a more rural area become darkened by smog has local impact, people take note and actually see A PROBLEM. A problem that can measured in terms of air quality or perhaps an AIR QUALITY HEALTH INDEX like the one that the provincial government in Ontario, Canada is in the process of implementing. You can measure results (however small) in terms of air quality and the affect it has on the health care system (those with breathing problems, doctor's visits, etc). It certainly speaks to the advantage of a UNIVERSAL health care system (however, actually implemented) as it actually makes sense to improve the environment as it keeps people healthy (a humanitarian cause) and when health care it publicly funded it affects the public coffers when people become ill therefore it even makes better financial sense to keep the environment a top priority.

Plus any approach must be entire with a complete overall plan (the big picture). Including recycling initiatives, energy solutions (alternatives/renewables can now present a real potential financial threat to the big oil companies and even power companies...), government involvement at all levels, public transit, greener vehicles in general (Hybrid, Hydrogen, Conventional electric, bio-diesel, ethanol), conservation in all energy arenas, ETC!

Economic viability is the real sell as many of these solutions are just that economically sensible (ensuring we look at the entire picture). Yes as more people use solar, wind and other renewable energy sources the cheaper the technology will get. Two of the newest billionaires have earned a large portion through renewables Solar (India I believe) and Wind (China I believe). Yes in many ways developing nations and economies will be the first and early adopters of such renewable tech as they are just building much of their infrastructure.

So what do we all need to do? GET INVOLVED ! Contact your local government about improving your recycling program, contact provincial/state/federal government about the adopting of these new technologies (renewables such as solar/wind), buy gas with ethanol in it and demand it, use and demand bio diesel, buy products with less packaging and demand manufacturers to reduce packaging and to offer a price break as a result. More ECONOMIC VIABILITY! After all energy diversity just like economic diversity is the safest and best bet for good long term results and return on investment.

Yup. And smoking won't kill you. Certain gases (CO2, Methane) trap heat. Fact. Increasing those gases will increase global heat, trapping more sunlight. Fact. The Earth's atmospheric CO2 is the highest in thousands of years, measured by antarctic ice cores. Fact. Ultimately, the Earth would turn into Venus at the end of this road. But I think the planet can throw off global warming by cleansing itself. Of course, it might throw off humans in the process, or at least throw us off the throne. Supposition, but one we need to act on. I don't own a car but I'm burning carbon right now, using electricity. My town just went through a devestating historic flood. We never had so much rain before! Something should be done by those who can do it before civilization gets a nasty kick in the ***.

Never, because it isn't junk science. Hopefully people will realize that there is something wrong and start putting the planet and the species above their own wellbeing before something catastrophic happens.

Y2k didn't happen because money and effort was put into fixing the problem before it became a problem.

It sounds like you may be the one in denial about the dangers of global warming.

I think just like SARS and the Y2K bug, we are going to have to have the benefit of experience to determine its validity.
I do believe we need to take care of the enviroment, but I wonder if the results will be as bad as Al Gore (creator of the internet, and global warming expert) has led us to believe.

Taking the easy way out(denial) is just another cop out.

If you spent the same time thinking of ways to change your lifestyle that is harming the Earth, instead of trying to convince intelligent, concerned people that the problem doesn't exist, you would amount to something in your life.
