Are climatic prolems out of control? Read on... Actually the temperature of the earth has increased less than 7/10 of 1 degree (C) from 1880 to 2005. That is an increase of about 1 degree (F) in 125 years. You may choose to believe that is global warming or you may not. Source: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2005/2005cal_fig1.gif There are numerous charts all over the internet showing the same. Some say that 1 degree is enough to impact the global climate, others say it's not. Most proponents of global warming think the earth's temperature has risen much more than that and don't even know that it has only risen by 1 degree. But the charts do not lie as do the proponents on both sides of this issue. The average temperature in the Antarctica is 109 degrees below zero. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antarctica#Climate It seems to me 108 below (one degree warmer) is still pretty cold and not enough to melt anything. But there are those that say it will.
Back in the '70s all the hype was about global COOLING and another ice age was coming. I remember that they blamed pollution for that too. They said that all the pollution was darkening the skies and not as much sun was coming through so the earth was cooling off. It took many years to discover that they were mistaken and it was all just hype. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_cooling So when someone says, "the sky is falling" don't believe everything you hear on either side of the issue. There are Spin Doctors galore out there.
Most of the time people will form an opinion and not really be informed about the subject with which they become so opinionated about. So it's best that you not form your opinions from other's opinions, (as in this forum) but on the facts presented. (Many do not provide any proof or links to prove their point, just their opinion.) With that said we do have a responsibility to do our part by doing whatever is within your power to keep our planet alive and well.
I hope that helps...

Carbon emissions is not the problem ,Mother nature resolved that problem a few million years ago when she introduced plants. Plants through a process of photosynthesis removes the CO2 from the air and the plant holds on to the C and gives us back the O2. What is more simple than that,and that is the reason that the CO2 levels are not what u want them to be. That is why I am sure that there is no global warming,and in a few days u will know how cold it can get.

Die (now) - although this leads to the immediate impact of a decomposing body, it eliminates all the emissions your would have contributed during your life.
1) The Earth goes through warming/colling cycles - this is entirely natural and has more to do with intercontinental drift & Sun activity than anything else. Currently we are in an interglacial warm period, heading towards the next ICE AGE.
2) You had better hope that the theories of 'Global Warming' are correct because otherwise we might end up under 100 meters of ICE.

Carbon emissions are not the cause of so-called Global Warming, but if we want to clean up the air we breathe then we should go nuclear for all of our energy needs. If we used part of the output from each nuclear power station to produce cheap Hydrogen then the only pollution would be water vapour from Hydrogen burning engines, or electrically powered cars.

do no longer purchase the bilge-water being spewed by potential of environmentalists approximately international warming. For starters, they are in a position to't even tutor that international warming is relatively taking place (the examine that their opinion is in keeping with is in reality incorrect, and there's a huge physique of examined scientific information accessible that disproves international warming), they do no longer likely understand what's happening with the receding poles or what's inflicting it, and that they have easily no way of telling regardless of if ANY environmental situation potential international disaster or no longer. there's a clean commercial interior the U.S. that shows a guy status on the railroad tracks, and additionally you pay attention the narrative "they are asserting international warming will reason irreparable injury to our environment in thirty years, yet that isn't take place in my lifetime, so why could desire to I care?" Then he steps off the tracks and additionally you notice somewhat female status at the back of him with the prepare bearing down on her. That has have been given to be the main criminally fraudulent promoting ordinary to guy -- how the hell do they understand that it will take place interior of 30 years, IF EVER? they shop speaking in regards to the damages executed by potential of greenhouse gases and neglect that 2 activities in my lifetime that had no longer something to do with commercial or vehicle emissions led to extra injury to the ozone layer and placed extra elemental carbon interior the water and environment than each and every of the toxins led to as a results of fact the start of the commercial revolution (in case you're questioning, those 2 activities have been the eruption of Mount St. Helens and the eruption of Mount Pinatubo). Our environment is lots tougher than human beings think of -- heck, it has persevered longer than any man or woman and it will proceed to realize this barring a nuclear holocaust (or perhaps then we are able to possibly nonetheless have life in the international -- it will purely be a lengthy time in the previous it resembles something like we now have). So take an internet site from Douglas Adams and don't PANIC!!!
