Is Global Warming Real?

Question

Genesis chapter 9 talks of God's promises that, he will never destroy the world with flood again. does that mean there will no flood as Al Gore or scientific evidences in that case, predicted?

Answer 1

Yes, I would like to share with you our Future Scientists Clubs experience in Global Warming Student Speakout project. Google partnered with Global SchoolNet to invite teachers and students to use Google Docs & Spreadsheets collaborative software in a project to brainstorm strategies for combating global warming. Children of all ages from more than 80 schools around the world participated, and on November 27th we took out a full-page ad in USA Today to put their ideas in the spotlight. Without further ado, here are their top 50 ideas:

1.Include global warming/climate change in school curricula (as part of National Science Standards), so when the students are in charge they can make educated decisions.
2.Increase availability of low-interest Energy Efficient Mortgages to support homeowners who increase the energy efficiency of their homes.
3.Put light sensors in all office and school buildings so all lights go off when the rooms are empty.
4.Require that all products contributing to global warming be marked with a specific color (e.g., chemical pesticides could be marked with a red sticker for being extremely dangerous to the environment).
5.Use less paper; use the back of the paper to print on or write on; use recyled paper.
6.Plant more trees to reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
7.Teach recycling techniques in classes and school-wide programs.
8.Make recycling mandatory in all public facilities, such as schools, parks and beaches.
9.Do public service announcements on TV featuring celebrities promoting carpooling, walking, riding bikes, using public transportation, conserving electricity and recycling.
10.Give grants and tax credits to companies that invest in alternative, sustainable, emission-free fuel technologies while ending such subsidies for fosssil fuel production.
11.The media should conduct interviews of legislators to help the public become aware of their ability and willingness to help solve the problem.
12.Replace incandescence light bulbs with fluorescence light bulbs.
13.Restrict the use of chemical fertilizer in agriculture.
14.Provide incentives and policies to encourage car makers to make more fuel efficient cars.
15.Protect wetlands and preserve more open space.
16.Provide tax incentives for regular recyclers and car poolers.
17.Use solar panels in the construction of new homes and office buildings.
18.Substitute local community transportation fleets with hybrid vehicles.
19.Require that car dealers hand out fact sheets that inform car buyers about the pollution levels of different cars.
20.Send scientists to talk about global warming in schools. They can bring hands-on activities so students feel more involved.
21.Unplug all electronics from the wall when they're not in use.
22.Have another Global Warming Student Speakout in one year - to see if any of these ideas have been implemented.
23.Raise mandatory emissions standards for cars and other vehicles sold in the US.
24.Use solar power in the day and use electricity at night when needed.
25.Give tax rebates for using solar power.
26.Congress should ratify the Kyoto Agreement.
27.Establish off-shore wind farms - saves land space and produces reliable power.
28.Levy higher taxes on companies that pollute the air.
29.Wait until you have a lot of clothes to wash before using the washing machine.
30.Provide tax incentives for companies that create Hybrid cars. That will reduce the need for oil.
31.Schools and businesses should be fined for not having recycling bins available to the people on their premises.
32.The media should tell us about what is really going on with global warming. We don't think that we have all the information we need.
33.At the end of the weather forecast, report “CO2 emissions levels today…” or comparative average temperatures (i.e., this year's temperature as it compares to the past several years).
34.Lead by example and convert 50% of government vehicles to environmentally friendly cars by the year 2020.
35.Place recycling bins throughout the city wherever there is a trash can.
36.Require companies to limit the amount of packaging an item can have and it must be recyclable.
37.Block bills that cause more damage to the environment.
38.Media could reduce advertising costs for alternative energy products to inform and increase sales in these areas.
39.Keep your tires fully inflated to improve gas mileage.
40.Replace old appliances with Energy Star appliances.
41.Promote awareness of local recycling centers.
42.Require college and high school students to take a global warming class.
43.Give tax reductions to public transportation users.
44.Protect our oceans - prevent plankton in the ocean from dying.
45.People running for elections should use email, radio and other media to campaign and stop using so many paper signs and flyers that use up our natural resources and then get left out and become pollution.
46.Reuse newspapers as wrapping paper for gifts.
47.Enforce laws about littering.
48.Use less electricity, turn off the TV, read books, walk, run, bike, surf, play tennis.
49.Business should require employees to telecommute several days a week.
50.Provide scientists appropriate resources to help them research the future of energy and the freedom to explore innovative ideas.

Answer 2

Yes, global warming is very real. The proof is everywhere. Just because there is a major flood in the world doesn't mean the world is going to be destroyed. There will be a lot of havoc and chaos, but life will go on until God decides to end it. Did you watch Al Gore's documentary? I did, and I found it very enlightening about the little things that we as average citizens can do. I think that this was a great question.

Answer 3

Don't believe anything you read and only 1/2 of what you see. Of course, Global warming is real. The last Ice age has gone away, has it not? So, we must have global warming. Do people contribute to global warming? Probably some small amount, after all we ARE Warm and we breath in oxygen and breath out CO2, we must be part of the problem. What is Al Gore going to do about it? Kill a whole lot of people? Invariably that is what Socialists do when they take control of a country. Is that better than destroying their economy and causing millions to starve to death?

Answer 4

Yes, Global warming is occuring again. For hundreds of years the Earth goes through times when we have mild winters and the ice caps have melted more in some years then others. If the Global warming continues and it can not pull itself out of this mode, then the Earth will warm up profoundly causing all moisturre to evaporate. Then when this happens the inner core of the Earth that consist of hot molten lava, melted rock will increase. Causing great heat on the earth surface. The contiinual heat from the sun and the inner core will become so hot, that eventually it will cause a major explosion, sending the Earth into a burning mass and spinning either twords the hot sun or into outer blackness. This is what will happen .

Answer 5

Global Warming is more propaganda. Twenty years ago the same people were telling us that we were going into another Ice Age. Check it out for yourself. Look at some magazines from 20 years ago.

What ever happened to Y2K? That was supposed to be the end of the world. When AIDS started, the "experts" were telling us that we would all have AIDS by the year 2000.

Every once in while, they tell us that there is a comet heading towards earth. When are people going to learn? Why does anyone take these people seriously?

Answer 6

My name is Rafael Lomena. I write from Alicante (Spain). I am independent investigator on the Accelerated Global Heating and want to share with all something that can turn out from interest to fight this phenomenon.
I believe that the main cause of the Accelerated Global Heating is in the great and increasing forest fires that are whipping to the planet in the last years.
My complete report is in: http://inicia.es/de/rlv/clim.htm...
If they do not understand the Spanish they can use the automatic translator that will find in the main page of site:

Answer 7

Al Gore is just faking global warming to sell books.

Do you REALLY need the bible to accept facts that are right in front of your eyes before you'll believe it???

Answer 8

Global warming. It has nothing to do with god, but I think the belief in god helps people avoid the subject. As an Oklahoma senator said, we don't have to worry about global warming because "God's still up there".

Answer 9

Al gores predictions are irrelevant.

Apocalypse is derived from the Greek word apokalypsis. Although it's often used to describe a great devastation or cataclysm, the literal meaning of apocalypse is actually an unveiling, or revealing.

"And I will grant My two witnesses power to prophesy for one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands which stand before The Lord of the earth. And if any one would harm them, fire pours out from their mouth and consumes their foes; if any one would harm them, thus he is doomed to be killed. They have power to shut the sky, that no rain may fall during the days of their prophesying, and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as often as they desire."
"And when they have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends from the bottomless pit will make war upon them and conquer them and kill them, and their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which is allegorically called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was crucified. For three days and a half men from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations gaze at their dead bodies and refuse to let them be placed in a tomb, and those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and make merry and exchange presents, because these two prophets had been a torment to those who dwell on the earth."

"But after the three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up hither!" And in the sight of their foes they went up to heaven in a cloud."

"And at that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven."

"The second woe has passed; behold, the third woe is soon to come."

"Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and He shall reign for ever and ever." And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying, "We give thanks to thee, Lord God Almighty, Who art and who wast, that Thou hast taken Thy great power and begun to reign." (Revelation 11:3-17 RSV)

Peace :)
