Is global warming real? Poll?

Question

This is just a poll. Dont try to convince me of anything I already have a opinion. Just say yes or no.

P.S. I think it's a buncha bs

Answer 1

yes, very real

Answer 2

Sorry for dancing around an answer, but I don't believe it's global warming, I think the world is deteriorating. It seems like there's a natural disaster every week. Although tornadoes and hurricanes are caused by temperature change (not climate change because the southeast states have always had tornadoes and hurricanes) Also, we've only been on this continent for 300-400 years and have only recorded storms and temperatures in the last 100or so years. We don't know how many things like that happened before.
Most importantly EARTHQUAKES ARE NOT PART OF GLOBAL WARMING, BUT ARE THE CAUSE OF TSUNAMIS.
The only reason I try to conserve energy is so I don't have to pay a high electricity bill. Also, maybe the sun is just getting hotter, anyone think of that? Also, the highest temp recorded was in 1880! People are freaking out because an average raise in temperature was 1/2 degree hotter.
No wonder so many people have anxiety and depression, every day there's some new disease to worry about, and the sky is falling and blah, blah, blah. We should build up and be more prepared for natural disasters, but we can not control the weather.

Answer 3

Sorry for not sticking with a YES/NO answer Bud.. My bad. I detest the fact sheep are buying this crap hook line and sinker, and they are indoctrinating our kids beginning in pre-school with garbage JUNK SCIENCE..


Man made? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!.

Cyclical Solar activity? yes.

Normal ??? Absolutely..

Current hype is nothing more then marxist takeover of the environmental movement pure and simple. (from a former co-founder of Greenpeace.)

Mind you I am a environmentalist, I believe common sense resource use is important. I don't believe panic should be the modus operandi As our former Veep with schizophrenic tendencies.

The oceans produce through normal processes 1000 times the CO2 output of all human activity.
Is global warming "caused" by humans? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Watch the video. One of th IPCC scientist tells you in the video the political hacks are disregarding the science they requested because it does fit the AGENDA!!

Media Shows Irrational Hysteria on Global Warming

"The Public Has Been Vastly Misinformed," NCPA's Deming Tells Senate Committee

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 /U.S. Newswire/ -- David Deming, an associate professor at the University of Oklahoma and an adjunct scholar with the National Center for Policy Analysis (NCPA), testified this morning at a special hearing of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. The hearing examined climate change and the media. Bellow are excerpts from his prepared remarks.

"In 1995, I published a short paper in the academic journal Science. In that study, I reviewed how borehole temperature data recorded a warming of about one degree Celsius in North America over the last 100 to 150 years. The week the article appeared, I was contacted by a reporter for National Public Radio. He offered to interview me, but only if I would state that the warming was due to human activity. When I refused to do so, he hung up on me.

"I had another interesting experience around the time my paper in Science was published. I received an astonishing email from a major researcher in the area of climate change. He said, "We have to get rid of the Medieval Warm Period." "The Medieval Warm Period (MWP) was a time of unusually warm weather that began around 1000 AD and persisted until a cold period known as the "Little Ice Age" took hold in the 14th century. ... The existence of the MWP had been recognized in the scientific literature for decades. But now it was a major embarrassment to those maintaining that the 20th century warming was truly anomalous. It had to be "gotten rid of."

"In 1999, Michael Mann and his colleagues published a reconstruction of past temperature in which the MWP simply vanished. This unique estimate became known as the "hockey stick," because of the shape of the temperature graph. "Normally in science, when you have a novel result that appears to overturn previous work, you have to demonstrate why the earlier work was wrong. But the work of Mann and his colleagues was initially accepted uncritically, even though it contradicted the results of more than 100 previous studies. Other researchers have since reaffirmed that the Medieval Warm Period was both warm and global in its extent.

"There is an overwhelming bias today in the media regarding the issue of global warming. In the past two years, this bias has bloomed into an irrational hysteria. Every natural disaster that occurs is now linked with global warming, no matter how tenuous or impossible the connection. As a result, the public has become vastly misinformed."

Answer 4

Can't tell. The global warming supporters are funding research to support their position, and the industrialites are funding research to support their position. It's impossible to get an unbiased opinion on the issue.

Answer 5

Poll are useles, unless they ask the right question.
Asking a simple yes or no, for or against.... distorts what people think

Answer 6

Yes, which other planet have you been on? - I heard about this in elementary school, a good almost 20 yrs ago!

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

Basically the hoax hype is a major 'NO" .
