Equally credentialed people around the world have stated pro and con arguments re global warming theory. The planet,earth, is thousands,millions, or billions of years in asge, dependent upon which theory you believe. There have always been periods of warming and cooling!

Its definitely has hoax appearances.....

Before you go to the bank with this whole man made Global warming know that the jury is still out about climate change and man's role if there is one, but one thing we do know for certain is that there are political agendas to promote socialistic politics. Even if man was partially responsible, if humans changed entirely, there would only be a slight difference of a degree or two in temperature change. I think we should get off fossil fuels because it makes us dependent upon unstable nations for our energy supply, not because of global warming.

Top scientists have refuted man's affect on the climate such as Astrophysicist Nir Shariv who stated, "Solar activity can explain a large part of the 20th-century global warming. Particularly because of the evidence that has been accumulating over the past decade of the strong relationship that cosmic-rays have on our atmosphere."

"The sun's strong role indicates that greenhouse gases can't have much of an influence on the climate."

Even doubling the amount of CO2 by 2100, for example, "will not dramatically increase the global temperature."

Oregon state climatologist, George Taylor said that "the global warming seen in the past century is caused largely by natural events, including cyclical climate patterns and solar fluctuations linked with cosmic rays and changes in cloud cover." Mr Taylor was recently fired by the Oregon governor for his "scientific" views.

I don't think there is a debate about whether global warming is occurring, but the idea that it is man made is a myth. Remember, the UN that came out with a recent report about climate change is a political entity that has done many things to prove it is not a credible, un-biased source. A recent example is the oil for food scandal that diverted millions of dollars to UN members and others. Also, even if there was man made climate change, China (the world's second-largest greenhouse gas emitter) and India are not going to embrace fossil fuel consumption.

Additionally, many scientists disagree about climate change and 17,000 signed a petition against the Kyoto treaty. Unfortunately, the sales focussed media who know little about this, spin it to suit their own opinions. So, its highly debatable whether humans are influencing global warming. Another thing to consider is that every 11,500 years, the earth goes through a major extinction with a global warming and cooling phase (ice age.) Paleontologists are able to track this through soil samples. We may actually be headed into an ice age because we are coming to the tail end of the current cycle. The problem is that the media and politicians get focussed on a piece of the puzzle and try to simplify this issue. Don't be fooled. There is probably nothing humans can do. Even if we could, there is no way you can control China who is becoming a major world polluter. Humans will need to adapt to climate change. Where I live there are small changes in our weather pattern, but nothing major. A lot of the media is hype to sell newspapers. The only caution is that some past climate changes have been more radical, swinging wildly from hot to cold. Others have brought on instant and severe cold conditions. I know the area that I live used to be buried in hundreds on feet of ice, but temperatures are mild today... Humans will just need to wait and see what mother nature brings and adapt as necessary.

Al Gore, of course, is the inventor of the internet & man made global warming? The hypocrite spends $1,200 per month on his 10,000 square foot home. The average household in America consumes 10,656 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, according to the Department of Energy. In 2006, Gore devoured nearly 221,000 kWh—more than 20 times the national average.

While many are asked to live "green" lifestyles, he goes through hundreds of gallons of fossil fuels with cars, toys, houses, planes, you name it. He doesn't even try to cut down even a little bit........ What a hypocrite!

Ask Al why the ice on Mars is also melting...... Could it be increased solar activity Al? Or are there Martians producing green house emissions on Mars? (see link below)
And as for Al, I think his mouth and utility bills are a main cause of green house emissions....

I think there should be more debate on it. The voice of the people rejecting global warming is not heard much. And when it is heard is cast in a conservative viewpoint instead of a scientific one. Which I think leads people to misunderstand it because of political biases. I think there is tons of evidence saying that there have been climate changes in the past. But global warming accepts that and usually states that it is possibly being sped up by emissions. But I'm skeptical of global warming also it's so confusing to an uneducated person. I have not completed my education so I have a limited understanding of it all until I do. Hopefully discussions will continue to be made and the problem can hopefully be dealt with.

Its mainly based on orbital elements and not so much on humans, if at all. Global Warming is a cycle, the earth frequently will go through stages of cooling and heating. If you recall, "global cooling was a big concern 30 years ago and now its global warming. All those who get freaked out by global warming need to be educated on the matter before coming to any rash decisions.

Before you completely make your mind up on this issue, will you please read "Trust us We're Experts" and especially the chapter entitled, "Global Warming is Good for You."

Yes, at this time I believe in anthropogenic global warming.

Consider it this way. It is a scientifically PROVEN fact that without carbon dioxide (naturally occuring) our planet would be too cold for much life to survive.

Thus we know for a fact that CO2 holds heat in our atmosphere.

Because we know this, and we know that mankind puts out millions of tons of C02 into the environent EVERY year, how could we NOT be causing global warming?

I don't know if it's real or not, but does it matter? From what I heard, most people think global warming has resulted from using fossil fuels. I think that using less fossil fuels is a good thing, global warming or not. They say to walk to places, or take public transportation to save the environment. Well, if there is no global warming, you are still doing your part to prevent it from happening in the future.

Absolutely! I know it is. There is no "global warming" as today's loons claim there is. The earth has been doing it for millions+ years and will continue no matter how many sufferers of the Chicken Little Syndrome worry and fret about it. That bunch of insufferable boobs are wasting billions of our tax money on idiotic farcical schemes and useless 'research' trying to justify their need for a little false security. They should be given massive doses of Valium to calm them. Or lobotomies and forced sterility.

I really don't think global warming itself is a hoax but all the hype about it & what's causing it is just so much baloney. It is a natural phase. I don't think it'll last that many yrs., then it will gradually get colder, leading into another ice-age eventually. That is my belief anyway. I also believe that we should still recycle & clean up as much manmade pollution as possible. We need to take care of our world so it can take care of us.

Personally, my opinion is NO. But even if it were a hoax, we still have to stop these pollutions that we're creating. For Heaven's sakes, it's destroying the earth!!!
