I thought global warming was just a conspiracy set out by the left wing? I mean, 65 degrees in New York in January is normal, right?

Capnemo is an idiot, in every sense of the word.

First, his reference to NASA's picture is proof of global warming (notice the 200-year trend upwards?). The fact is, a single degree change in the average earth temperature is the difference between the ice age and now.

Second, his reference to a "secular scientific article that shows the earth was actually warmer" is not only irrelevant, but he obviously didn't read the article. The article was written in 1999, whereas the past 6 years have been the warmest on record. Further, the article states:
"Human-induced global warming is the raising of surface temperatures due to increased atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and other greenhouse gases."
and
"It is reasonable to conclude that global warming is a real threat,..."

??? How does this article go against global warming?

Third, his reference to the Harvard study is completely ignorant of the followup. 5 editors resigned in protest from the journal it was published in, including the managing editor. Harvard professors disagree with the findings, and the author of the study, Willie Soon, is a paid consultant for the George C. Marshall Institute, a Washington non-profit organization that opposes limits on carbon dioxide emissions.

Stop spreading lies, capnemo. The Earth is warming, mankind is responsible, and we need to do something about it.

So Al Gore should have been president just because of global warming? He has no clue on Economics, foreign policy, domestic programs. So electing someone because they talk about global warming is pretty naive.

When Al Gore goes around the country he talks about how we should lower jet fuel and car emissions because they contribute to the problem. Ask him how he gets from one state to another? Don't think he's driving an electric car. He's using jet fuel and more than likely big SUVs to get from place to place. Something tells me he doesn't have solar panels for his main source of electricity either at his home. He pretty much a hypocrite and just wants to make money on his "movie" and public speaking.

First you need to know for sure tha Global Warming is real. Below is a link taking you to a NASA chart showing the temperature change from 1880 to 2005. Since 1880 the earth's temperature has risen less than 7/10 of 1 degree C. See for yourself here: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2005/2005cal_fig1.gif

There are numerous charts all over the internet showing the same. The fact that people choose to ignore the facts of these charts shows that they have an agenda to convince the masses of something that really is not happening.

In fact here's a link to a secular scientific article that shows the earth was actually warmer in the past than it is today.
http://www.msu.edu/course/isp/203/raeburn_old/fulltext/class9.pdf

And here's an article from a Harvard University study that says: "Such claims have now been sharply contradicted by the most comprehensive study yet of global temperature over the past 1,000 years. A review of more than 240 scientific studies has shown that today's temperatures are neither the warmest over the past millennium, nor are they producing the most extreme weather - in stark contrast to the claims of the environmentalists.
The review, carried out by a team from Harvard University, examined the findings of studies of so-called "temperature proxies" such as tree rings, ice cores and historical accounts which allow scientists to estimate temperatures prevailing at sites around the world.

The findings prove that the world experienced a Medieval Warm Period between the ninth and 14th centuries with global temperatures significantly higher even than today."

I hope that helps...

some scientists believe that it has happened before and that the earth is getting warmer it is just a small step to another ice age and even if all the ice on earth does melt the world will not be coverd in water just more than what is right now i think i heard about a mile or so higher which if you think about it isnt that much so global warming may be only a small problem to a bigger one, i dont like al gore's info.

I think every new house that is built, should come fitted with solar panels that provide electricity for the house, at least in part, saving electricity bills and the environment.

As for Al Gore, although the environment is a very important issue, there is more to a presidency then this single issue.

these are the best two steps you can take, simple aren't they, good luck

p.s. please show these two sites to anyone concerned with global warming, spread the word.
