Now that winter is here, will liberals start complaining about global cooling and a new ice age?

Answer 1

um no its still hot in florida :p

Answer 2

The rise in temperature is a few degrees so this will not get rid of winter but it will change weather patterns and cause a rise in sea levels. In the US the majority of the population lives on the coast and a slight rise in water levels would be detrimental to the economy and the population that are located on the coast. The Department of Defense released a study that claimed global warming is the biggest threat the US faces in terms of both economic harm and the loss of land. This was released when the DOD was under the control of Rumsfeld about 8 months ago. Winter does not prove global warming is a farce.

Answer 3

No, only right wingers complain because they are poor losers. If you really WANT to be informed, (which I doubt), read the msnbc article about arctic clouds. It's quite unbiased. I shan't ramble as some people are wont to do, but: "The majority of the world's population hasn't really felt the global warming..right now in the arctic & in Nunavut, we're really worried because its already affecting us." Plus: "The cycle is the same today, only you're taking something that took 100,000 years & doing it in one hundred years..there's a point where animals can't change fast enough, so they'll either compete it out or go extinct." Much more, of course. But I wouldn't want you to get cross-eyed scrolling as I so often do with diatribes. Hey. I don't care if you don't care. You just needed a "fix" on bashing liberals, right?

Edit: PERFECT! Just as predicted. A thumbs down from a cry baby "right winger." Look at the latest on Rumsfeld, (example); seems there's more than meets the eye about his "departure."

Answer 4

WOW!!! I am just completely amazed by your and most of the other answerers' complete and total ignorance. Global warming has nothing to do with snow or winter. Except for the fact that once the polar ice caps have melted the Earth will go into another ice age. I hope you have a parka in 50 years! If that!

Answer 5

Global warming is real,the only people that claim it's not are payed by the oil companies.

KOFI ANNAN (U.N. secretary general): The question is not whether climate change is happening or not, but whether, in the face of this emergency, we ourselves can change fast enough. Instead of being economically defensive, let us start being more politically courageous"
U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan's exhortation is the latest argument over global warming. In referring to a frightening lack of leadership, clearly Annan was faulting chiefly the U.S. for rejecting the Kyoto protocol to reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the next five years by 5 percent below 1990 levels.

The president of Kenya made the same point in language that was less diplomatic. "Tackling climate change is not a matter of choice. It is an imperative that must be addressed if we are to assure the continued survival of our planet."

Dr. James Hansen, chief of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, says failure to halt the further depletion of the ozone layer will put New York City and Washington, D.C. under water. "I think we have less than a decade to avoid passing what I call point of no return."

Skeptics of global warming say that Hansen's data is far from solid. Republican Senator James Inhofe, outgoing chair of the Senate Environment Committee, takes this view. "The Arctic was actually warmer in the 1930s than it is today. The big question here is, is it man-made gases that have anything to do with global warming or with the climate change? And I say that it's not, and that's the big issue there."

Skeptics further argue global warming is cyclical, occurring at regular intervals naturally. But global warmist Al Gore says, "The debate's over. The people who dispute the international consensus on global warming are in the same category with people who think the moon landing was staged in a movie lot in Arizona."

Answer 6

When everyone was complaining about a global ice age coming soon, I argued that the natural state of the Earth is a very warm and moist environment which is what occurred for millions and millions of years (in other words, the majority of the Earth's lifespan). Back then, nobody believed me.

Now that everyone is complaining about a global warming, I argued the same argument, and still nobody believes me. I suppose that nobody has ever read a natural history book.

Answer 7

A) Winter isn't here yet, only December.

B) We were complaining about globabl warming laste winter, and the winter before that, there are effects of globabl warming proved in the winter. The only reason you think that global warming is only a summer 2006 thing is that's when the movie "An Inconvinient Truth" came out and you are too ignorant to have heard about it before it became a movie.

Answer 8

YEP, They sure will, because I heard one complaining
that global warming is cooling the planet and we'll have a new ice age.

Answer 9

You obviously have no knowledge of global warming. Liberals have nothing to do with it. Most scientists agree that it is real, and they are both liberal and conservatives and everything in between. Do some research. Start here:

Answer 10

Probably. You have to understand that Liberals get most of their funding for their studies from the Government. If no one believes them, they can't get funded. So, one of the studies is about Global Warming.

I don't doubt that we are going through more cyclical changes. After all, there was just snow in Florida. California seems to be getting colder while the Northeast is getting warmer. However, that has happened before. We've always had El Ninos and El Ninas, we just didn't have a name for them. We just called it a heat wave or a cold snap.

Answer 11

Yes just like in the early 70's when the scientist claimed that an ice age was upon us!!!!
