Skin cancer ?!
Each day, the "global warming" Henny-Penny's find bewildering new "evidence" to show the king.
Like the business that polar bears are an "endangered species." Everyone agrees that polar bears are cute and cuddly, right? So, putting them on the the endangered species list really gets people's attention.
The only problem is, they're not at all endangered. Real scientists demonstrated compellingly that the polar bear population has actually jumped fivefold in 20 years, and would have increased even more except for human hunting. If so-called "global warming" were indeed true, it must be a good thing for the polar bear.
Of course, the real lesson in this polar bear story is that there is more of gravy than of grave in the "grave" global-warming situation. It has spun into a "crisis" because of public hysteria, fueled by a rare spring-like January day here in New York. Once the public attention-span moves on to something else, it will collapse as quickly as the similar "global cooling" boomlet of the seventies and eighties.

For those of you whom forget history. Global warming is a continue affect. If you were able to see the dinosaur period you would know that eventually the Earth will change. It is nature. Why do you think the Earth had those separations of land mass. It is only now that we as people are smart enough to predict and foresee the Global activities. Keep in mine that the warming is not only cause by humans.

I think it all ready is. Dont you think that the summers are hotter? I do. Seems like every year we are having more droughts out west, and if I am right there are a lot more cases of skin cancer and just any kind of cancer. I think that it is affecting us now. The winters are crazy where I live we very seldom have snow anymore we just have rain.

It already has started, the price increases on produce and commodities, skin cancers are increasing, water shortages etc.
