To people having an alternative explanation of global warming
Can you at least have the decency to make your explanations match each other? or at least your own from one post to the next ?

- It´s all due to the Sun
- It´s all due to the volcanoes
- It´s all due to us breathing
- It´s all due to the CO2 released from oceans
- It´s all errors of measurements
- It´s all due to the CO2 contained in soda drinks

Please send me further youtube links ! I would like so much to know everything about the topic within 5mn...

Some others...

It was invented by Al Gore
It's a government conspiracy to subjugate people
It's a myth used as an excuse to raise taxes
It happens every X number of years
Earth is coming out of an ice age
It's an excuse by scientists to get funding
The world is cooling
It can't be proven therefore it doesn't exist
The Earth is moving closer to the sun
It's because the ozone layer is shrinking

And perhaps the most popular one - I don't want to believe it therefore it's not happening.

Man-made global warming/climate change is proven fact. There is no "alternative explanation." The delusions of some crackpots and/or propaganda from oil companies do not constitute an "alternative" to the facts.

There are more scientists who agree that the earth, which is constantly evolving, is subject to weather trends, with or without human influence. The "Global Warming" crowd has taken select data from melting glaciers to further their agenda, yet they neglect to report on other areas that are freezing over. To flatly conclude that man's burning of fossil fuels has induced too much CO2 into the air is beyond ridiculous. Their theories might have some merit if the wind never blew or it never rained. In short, they are attempting to turn a natural occurrence into a frenzy to further an agenda. The particulars of this agenda include mining the money you have in your pocket.

Global warming is real, and there are ways to fight it. I urge every consumer to offset their CO2, atleast the Co2 that you can't reduce on your own. legitimate non-profit companies like CO2Debt.com exist. Watch out for those pesky for profit companies trying to make a buck off the earth.

(sorry Nickel johann you probably had this before ,but its for the sake of the public ,not for you,I´ve read where you stand .)

What about the effects of agressive irresponsable farming ,and deforestation for a variety of reasons including War ,resulting in desertification,
this was not on the list and this definately has effected many climates

Go to the jungles of Oaxaca,the ex forrests of Africa ,see the desertification in Mexico,the dust storms in northern China .

compare todays situation with what the place used to look like .
And understand how People have totaly changed their Environment and subsequently their climate.
Add all of this together,from all over the globe, and calculate the results .

MAN MADE CLIMATIC CHANGES

We cannot save the world from global warming ,but we still need our Environment to survive whilst we are still here .

Everybody is so desperate to absolve humanity from blame ,and this is not possible

Global warming is one thing ,and for many people it seems to be the knight on a white horse that says
dont worry it is not your fault you can do nothing about it ,
keep on trucking ,poluting, deforesting, desertifying,keep killing the animals ,keep burning the woods

Man is responsible for much climate change it cannot be whitewashed by Global warming

If Global warming also want to change the climate it has to stand in line
because it is not the only one

ONCE UPON A TIME
I went to the jungles of Oaxaca and discussed with the Natives the mountain before us ,Mostly deforrested ,scarred by landslides and dotted with madly steep corn patches (which only produced for 3 years ),and devoid of clouds.

They all agreed that the days were hotter ,there was less rain ,And the river was dry part of the year.

When they were boys ,the river was bigger and ran all year around,the mountain was always covered in clouds with daily rains .And the days were more bearable .

Their actions in the desperate plight to feed their enormous families of avarage 12 kids per family ,often much more ,had destroyed their home ground with indisputable climate changes.
They had changed their climate.This happens all over Mexico

In Africa I have seen lush wooded lands change into dessert within a few years by large invading comunities ,who devoured the trees for building and firewood ending up in a dessert with out water
and with a hot sun under which no new plantation was possible.The people had changed their climate,this happens all over Africa.

In Northern china two mayor dessert are merging and 900 vilages are buried under the dust ,thousands of refugee farmers who had changed their climate ,by intensive agressive agriculture are fleeing for their lives,

This happens all over the world .it happened in the 20ties in the USA has everybody forgotton that ,was this not a climate change ?

Granted the climatic changes are local ,but effects neighboring areas ,there is less rainfall, rivers dry up ,

Collectively because there is so much of it all over the world ,the global precipitation is affected and so is the climate .

And who did it ???

the people are changing the climate

Like Ghengas Kahn changed the climate when he burned all the forests and filled the wells with sand ,Like the Phoenicians changed the climate of lebanon to build the trading fleet .Like the Spanish climate was changed by using their forest to build the Armada ,

So are we today changing the climate by massive deforestation,agressive corporate farming (using chemicals),overgrazing ,overpumping deep subteranean waters ,ignorence and impartiality

Global warming.carbon emisions ,polution ,sunspots ,solar flares,hairsprays , Al Gore, and skeptics are the rasberries on top

and read up what America is planning with the insane master plan for Ethanol production

Seems as if America is trying to compete with Global warming

I wonder who will win.?
but who ever it is ,
the rest of the world looses.

we are in trouble,and if we can do something that will make it less ,we should try to do it .

And there are many things that we can improve on
so that ,we can at least last as long as posible .

Don't forget cow farts and water vapor. I'm sure they'll have a new explanation tomorrow, and it will take all of 5 minutes to disprove it.

Since all these "alternatives" are fantasies, not science, they don't require internal consistancy.
