If scientists say global warming is a theory,,, why do liberal politicians say it is a fact?

Question

greenhouse gas caused global warming is just conjecture, an equal amount of scientists believe that it is caused by a changing sun,,,actually more believe in this theory, in 100 years temperature has only risen a little over a half of a degree,,,so what are we talking about here

gravity is a law of physics,,,you stupid liberal

Answer 1

Everybody talks about the weather but...let's see who profits!
“Another Ice Age?”

"As they review the bizarre and unpredictable weather pattern of the past several years, a growing number of scientists are beginning to suspect that many seemingly contradictory meteorological fluctuations are actually part of a global climatic upheaval. However widely the weather varies from place to place and time to time, when meteorologists take an average of temperatures around the globe they find that the atmosphere has been growing gradually cooler for the past three decades. The trend shows no indication of reversing. Climatological Cassandras are becoming increasingly apprehensive, for the weather aberrations they are studying may be the harbinger of another ice age."
Time Magazine, July 24, 1974.
One basis for those 1974 findings…It was warmer in the 1930s across the globe than in the mid ‘70’s…Honorable mention, it was warmer globally then, than even now!

In 1996 the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued a chart showing climatic change over a period of 1000 years. This graph showed a Medieval warming period in which global temperatures were higher than they are today. In 2001 the IPCC issued another 1000 year graph in which the Medieval warming period was missing. So was the spike of the 1930’s!
There are so many more points that will either not be presented, by intentional omission,
so as to sustain the foregone conclusions of Grant driven scientists with Socialist agendas.
Remember the line in the original Ghostbusters movie…I need this college grant job; the private sector expects legitimate results!

Answer 2

Global warming is not a theory. It's a fact -- the earth is warmer than it was 100 years ago. What is not known is the cause. There is a scientific consensus that proposes the idea that it caused by man. Basically this means that a bunch of scientists got together and said, "We think global warming is caused by pollution." They can't prove any of it or provided workable theories to back it up, which means there is no science involved -- just the opinions of scientists. That may convince some of you, but let us not forget that the *scientific consensis* in 1492 was that the earth was flat.

Answer 3

We are talking about those that are un educated and un informed. Like FOX news, Bush and Rush who have been telling Americans just what you said for years. Temps. in the Arctic have risen 4 to 7 degrees in the last 50 years. The sea level under the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco has risen 7 inches in the last century. In Sydney Australia the temps. will rise 9 degrees in the next 65 years and cause 1300 people to die there. Florida and the Gulf coast will see 13 foot rise in the sea level if just half the Greenland Ice shelf melts. In education you will find truth. Now tell me would you like to buy some land on the Gulf coast from me, cheap. Just follow Rush's advice.

Answer 4

scientists have a standard for what they do or do not consider a theory. A widely-accepted theory is peer-reviewed, which means that ANY scientist who could disprove it will destroy the theory. Theory, for the layman, is as good as fact. Gravity is a theory. Every mechanical concept which builds our society, runs our cars, etc., is based on what scientists call theory and we the laymen call fact. The questioning of the term "theory" was invented by people who simply call their "intelligent design" concept a "theory", despite a total lack of objective peer-review, and who say evolution might not exist because it is merely a "theory".



stupid conservative, the theory of gravity is one of the laws within the theory of physics... by "law" they mean "convention" upon which other theories are based, therefore if gravity was disproven, any theory derived from it would have to be reconsidered.

Answer 5

Funny how some people dismiss any scientist that doesnt agree with the pet hypothesis of global warming as being paid for by oil companies, but no one challenges the Followers and their grant money and government appointed jobs. It has always been a tactic of those who cannot substantiate their claims to use ad hominem attacks when they cannot produce a valid counter argument.

Answer 6

actually, that stupid liberal is right, all laws of physics are just theories, however, that is because it is the only possible explanation, and it passes scientific experiments, something global warming lacks

Answer 7

I'm glad to see someone else that is not blindly following the whole global warming scare.
The liberals use this as a tactic to get the emotions up in a bunch. Then, their "followers" make emotional votes instead of intelligent, thought out votes.

Answer 8

lets put it this way. its all facts. whats gonna happen is theory. the water levels are slowly rising. some say seaside cities might be some what submerged by 2050. dont worry as long as long as we don't destroy the ozone layer completely we should be O.K. research is undergoing.

Answer 9

The speed of the rise in temperature, compared to other climatological cycles in earth's history, would suggest a new element. The most reasonable "additional element" is humanity's burning of fossil fuels.

Answer 10

do you think it is better to just ignore the theory because Oh My God! Exxon might have to pay a few more bucks and cut into its biggest profits in 2006 for a company EVER. so you think the short term expense is not worth taking a chance that the theory might be correct. your toasty great-grandchildren might ask that question later. duh!
