do you belive in global warming??

Question

I dont belive in global warming, I mean, most scientists dont belive in god, he only knows the truth, there has already been a hole in the place for a long time, uumm what else, what if our timing is wrong??? and in New Jersey it got the coldest its ever been this year, I thought it was suppose to get hotter!!!

Answer 1

No, I dont. I believe that the climate is constantly changing and there's not one damn thing we can do about it.

Answer 2

Ho hum. You aren't asking a question, just revealing your own opinion. Global warming has been discussed numerous times on here.

You are not very well informed (your erroneous statement that scientists don't believe in God shows that.) Climate change has gone on throughout the billions of years of Earth's history and it is still going on today. The geological record proves this. Whether or not humans have affected the cycle will always be open to discussion but the overwhelming majority of scientific studies shows that it is a reality that the planet is warming up more quickly than at any time since people have been keeping records.

You should not let your religion nor your lack of information (I'm too polite to call you ignorant) blind you to the truth.

Answer 3

Reading the popular media can lead a person to conclude that "global warming" is:
o- either a hoax to promote business opportunities, politicians agenda and scientists grant money.....
OR
o- a problem related to overpopulation, industrialization and fossil fuels whose solution options lie in solar power, wind power, geothermal power and nuclear fusion....

However, the correct answer may be altogether different:

NASA has released never-before-seen images that show the sun's magnetic field is much more turbulent and dynamic than previously known. The international spacecraft Hinode, formerly known as Solar B, took the images. Hinode was launched Sept. 23 to study the sun's magnetic field and its explosive energy. National Aeronautics and Space Administration scientists said the spacecraft's uninterrupted high-resolution observations of the sun are expected to have an impact on solar physics comparable to the Hubble Space Telescope's impact on astronomy. "For the first time, we are now able to make out tiny granules of hot gas that rise and fall in the sun's magnetized atmosphere," said Dick Fisher, director of NASA's Heliophyics Division. "These images will open a new era of study on some of the sun's processes that effect Earth, astronauts, orbiting satellites and the solar system." Hinode is a collaborative mission led by
the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and includes the European Space Agency and Britain's Particle Physics Astronomy Research
Council. NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., managed the development of the Hinode's scientific instrumentation provided by industry and federal agencies.

>>> as regards alternative energy methods, I favor development of the technology for nuclear fusion using lunar Helium 3

Answer 4

Well dear it's not about believing anything. It's about experimenting, evaluating, and finding the facts about what's happening today. It's more than just a hole in the ozone layer. If the ocean temperatures rise 1 or 2 degrees, that effects weather patterns. Storms will be stronger, including those winter storms that make it seem colder. They will just dump 100 inches of snow whereas in the years before they would have only dumped maybe half. Go watch An Inconvenient Truth, you'll see that there is science and factual data actually used. You are uneducated about the subject completely. Things in life are more complicated than you think.

Answer 5

In the first place "global warming" is not what most climatologists are expecting; climate change is. We may have triggered another ice age, or drastic warming, or only immensely powerful storms or temperature swings. In the second place, most of the scientists I know believe in some kind of God. And in the third place, the appropriate response to uncertainty is to do the research to arrive at some kind of justifiable conclusion.

Answer 6

Many scientists DO believe in god. You can't be a REAL scientist and not have some faith. Local weather is not a measurement of whether global warming is occurring or not. Global warming IS occurring. There is NO controversy over the issue. The question really is if humans are ACCELERATING the rate of global warming. Which they are.

Answer 7

Yes, the earth goes through warming and cooling periods. It's true. I wouldn't be able to look at beautiful Puget Sound every day if it weren't for them darn glaciers.

However, we are accelerating it. It's plain to see if you look at the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere since the industrial revolution and look at the temperature change over the same time frame. There's nothing to argue over.

BUT, if your argument is that as humans we cannot control such things, remember that you were given this land and you are a steward of it. It wasn't given to you to trash. Where has manifest destiny gotten us in the past? genocide? hmm yeah, learned that wasn't so cool (most of us at least). Let's hope we don't get cocky again and this time mess up the earth for our children.

It's not about Al Gore. He just brought into our daily conversations. Good on him!

Answer 8

Global warming is not a matter of opinion--or faith. (BTW--most scientists, including myself, do believe in God--the idea that they don't is a myth) Global warming is an empirical fact, established by measurement and observation. And--meaning no offense--you only look ignorant and foolish by making such statements--its the equivalent of saying you don't "believe" in electricity or that the Earth is round.

Answer 9

The ozone layer is high enough that nothing affects it. God was ahead of us and put plants on this earth several million years ago. The plants take in the CO2 and holds on to the C and gives us back the O2 . I think that what God designed to work is doing fine . Granted we do burn a lot of fossil fuels but the plants love it as the C is what they make their food out of.

Answer 10

global warming is possible i do belive it could happen and i think god is trying to get the scientist to tell us somethin that we need to know only god knows whats going to happen next and the scientist are trying to stop us from getting us farther into global warming

Answer 11

I am going to give you a star just because of your name!
I love manatees! Save them indeed!

Yes, I believe in it....before this became (to my mind) a political issue, I have been reading by completely objective folk (science mags and docs of the past) about the statistics.

I think the people who don't believe in it are being political.

Sometimes things happen, even if we wish they weren't true.

So much points to it as well as other types of environmental damage....
