Wondering about global warming, 07-07-07, and psychics?

Question

Global warming:
Why do you believe in it?
over the last 100 years, it has warmed up an average of 0.6*C, far less than daily, even hourly changes.
I won't go into detail, but I'd like to know.
Air pollution I understand, but why is it being forgotten for global warming?

07-07-07
Isn't this day a man made day?
We made dates.
Therefore, how is 07-07-07 a lucky day?
the two sevens made by two people hugging or whatever... those are purely imagination, by definition. The more we have it, the more easily we will see an object forming in a vague shape (and the more vague it can be).
Those are not perfect sevens.
Seven is also a man-made number.
The reason why there were so many marriages was because humans made it happen that way.
What's with this superstition?

One last thing
Psychics.
They start by telling you something very vague and wide, so that their chances are high of being right.
You then get what they told you, so you are happy... but what didn't happen?
A lot!

Answer 1

Woo Hoo!
Man! You are all over the place...
Gloabal warming? could be some truth in it.
7-07-07? Just another date.
Psychics? Yep, they relate to the subject in ambiguity for the simple reason that all humans have pretty common experiences.

Answer 2

Global Warming:

There has been a significant change in temperature in the past few years. GW is something that we need to take much more precaution to because if we do not then there will be notihing we can do about it. The Hollywood rendition of GW portrayed by Denis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhall in "The Day After Tomorrow," shows us a much more dramatized version of what would happen. If you have seen Al Gores', "An Inconvient Truth," as I have you will be easily able to say that you have an idea as to what is going to happen. You say that its "far less than daily, even hourly changes..." yes it is but thats the whole point, not one person is realizing that and thats why nothing is being done about Global Warming in the first place, which goes on to answer your next question. I suggest you look at Al Gores' "An Inconvenient Truth."


07-07-07
What are you talking about when you are saying "man made day?" This day is a lucky day because three sevens in a row are lucky. This may be a poor juxtaposition however, in a casion "777" is lucky isnt it? What does the thing with two people hugging have to do with anything? I dont understand about how that makes this number lucky, i dont think it has anything to do with it. There were so many marraiges because it is indeed a lucky day with the triple sevens.

Psychics
Psychichs are a much different thing than we think they are. I dont know how they do what they do, but it seems that they have some way of fooling you of answeing a question with exactly that .. the right answer all the time. Its strange to see that product when you go to a psychic. I have been to one before in my life and she was with tarot cards. She was saying things such as there is someone in your life that you are beginning to like. I replyed with a yes and then she said, are you getting close to someone in your workplace. The person i was getting close with had just left my workplace. That seemed to be real to me but i dont understand how they do the other things that they do :)


Hope I helped you :), have a nice day.

Answer 3

Global Warming, the weathers gone nuts and you still question it? Honey, I grew up with snow drifts that reached the top of my house. In the last 10 years, we've had four brown winters and the ones that weren't didn't see more than two feet of snow on the ground at the worst of times. Last week, we had a record high of 43 degrees celcius which has never been seen in the history of Canada. And I'm only 31. You may not believe it, but you can watch the weather in action. Something is happening, so if it isn't global warming then what is it? A rise in temperature of .6 is STILL a rise in temperature.

070707 is just a day and human beings are nuts.

Psychics, you don't have to believe and I'm not asking you too. The problem is that people want a psychic to be right every time they're asked and it doesn't work that way. Its not like flipping on a lightswitch and it happens when it happens, not when the psychic wants it to.

Answer 4

Global warming. Believe in it? That's a bit like asking me if I believe in fairies.
Well, yes, there's definitely evidence that weather patterns are changing, and that to some degree global warming (because I can't think of a better hysterical catch cry to attach to the event) is occurring. But I wouldn't worry about it. In the 1970s, the "scientists" (the kind of people who give real scientists a bad name) were more worried about global cooling, and the ice age that was about to hit us.
As for fairies? Well, okay. I'd never given it much thought, actually.
07-07-07. Sounds like the beginning of a mobile phone number.
Like you say, it's numbers, it's man made.
I'll put it up there with the fairies. Never gave it much thought.
I'm sure some people get great comfort from numerology, far be it from me to heap criticisms on their beliefs, but I will, in saying that I think it's a load of old phooey.
Psychics. Well, I figure they're either slightly misguided and well meaning people, trying to help, or they're ruthless sharks, out for the money that can be made.
I'll classify them in the same batch as Answers, R&S. Light entertainment, not to be taken seriously.
Good question. By no means too much. But then, I'm not of the 'fast food generation' who have the attention span of a gnat.

Answer 5

trying to conserve your points and daily allotment of answers by combining 3 questions into 1?

anyway I agree with you on all the issues you listed but 7-7-07 is in the past, so why bring it up anymore, I think a lot of people weren't so worked up over the idea that it might be lucky as they were just excited because its kinda cool when the numbers in the date have some sort of pattern.

Answer 6

Global warming has been demonstrated to be true, even the scientists agree it is happening, I have seen scientific proof that global warming exists...just the cause is in dispute...

7/7/7-a man made superstition, nothing to it really...

Psychics are real and can help people. They will not give little details about your life because that is up to you. They just tell you where you are right now and what might happen in the near future to help you make plans.

Answer 7

I think there is something to global warming. But we shouldn't rush into it. It may be a natural part of the cycle. As far as the date, it just happened, as does Friday the 13. And I don't have anything to do with psychics.

Answer 8

global warming is happening, meaning by temperature is rising globally. but we don't have a long enough time period to tell whether we, humans, caused this. acturate weather records only go back about 200 years or so. however, other records could be trased backed to roman times. but that's only a few thousand years. earth itself does go through periods of warming and cooling stages on its own. there has been many occations of small and large ice ages in the past million years. there has also been global temperature rise in the past million years as well. no doubt, us humans have emitted large amount of pollution in the environment, but is that enough to cause such a dramatic change in climate in such a short period of time? (short period compare to millions and millions of years) maybe it's too early to decide, but maybe when we are at the right time to decide, we will be too late to do anything about it

Answer 9

There is a lot of science behind global warming. One of my specialties is paleoclimatology, and by studying ancient trends in global warming and cooling, we find that the largest variance is due to changes in atmospheric gasses.

You are correct though in your skepticism of 7-7-7 and psychics.

Answer 10

too many information and topics in one question! next time better ask in diffenent questions!!!
I agree on 07-07-07!!! I have almost the same opinion with you on this.
All the best
