What do you think about global warming? Why do some scientists think that it's not true? What should be done?

Answer 1

I believe you would be hard pressed to find a scientist who says it is "not true." The debate regarding the existence of global warming is over. However, some pseudo scientists who have been hired by oil companies claim that humans are not the cause of it. Fact is, sure, there is a natural cycle of global warming and cooling, but the accelerated pace of current warming is unheard of and is caused by man.

What should be done? Massive research into alternative/natural/clean sources of energy like solar, wind, geothermal, and hydro.

Answer 2

No one has shown that our temperatures are increasing above the normal fluctuation. As far as the math is concerned the global warming people haven't got a clue as to the actual facts. They are predicting a drastic rise in the oceans. Short of California falling into the ocean there is no way they can attain the projected rise in ocean levels. Shorelines do go up and down and this may cause some local tidal flooding but their projections for it coming from ice melt have no basis in fact.
The greatest greenhouse gas is water vapor, not carbon dioxide.
Man has far less effect than they give him credit for.
and many many respected scientists do not beleive in global warming and many more do not think it is man made.

Answer 3

Most in the climate science community acknowledge global warming. The debate is whether it's done by our output of carbon. Many scientists agree that the normal earth climate is warmer than what it is now. Normally, it's much more tropical, as is evident in the fossil record. An example is the ferns and palm tree fossils found in the land mass at the south pole. And our coal and oil reserves are the result of millions and millions of years of world wide tropical life. Many glaciers are indeed melting, but this actually was first noticed as far back as the 1860s when many glaciers were mapped along the Atlantic Canadian coast line north of Washington. When observed again 12 years later, the maps were obsolete because the glaciers had receded so much.

Answer 4

998 out of 1000 scientists believe in global warming, the other 2 work for oil companies.
Drive a biodiesel car, cut the power line and get a solar power system, buy local products when ever you can, grow your own food, and buy green when possible.

Answer 5

Well those scientists are retards! Global Warming does exist, the climate has warmed 0.8 degrees Celsius (1.4 F) what do you expect? Air pollution is doing it all. I think more people should pitch in to help solve it. Get a Hybrid Car or a Diesel. (Idiot Bush swiped out Electric Cars.) There are a lot of things that could be done.

Answer 6

global warming does not exisist, it is not true.

the global warming and envirnmentalist wackos, have a hidden ajenda. They hate america, they are socialists who want america to be turned over to the control of the united nations, and surrender our sovernity as a country.
They are out to intentionally cause problems. Was it global warming that caused the fires in california, or was it in fact the envirnmentialist wackos. It was the wackos. They refuse to let the dead wood be taken out of the forest, so it just sits there drying out, and when a spark flies, it hits the dead wood that wasn't cleared out, and you have the worst fires in history.

The global warming croud and the envirnmentalists wont let us drill for oil, why?? Is it the cariboo that they wanna protect, or do they want america to not be able to provide for it's oil needs. they want us to depend on forign sources of oil, which hurts the american economy, and forces us to be dependant on terrorist organizations for our oil.

Everything the envirnmentalists do is calculated to hurt america. Hurt our economy, hurt our ability to defend ourselves, and to have the usa surrender it's sovernity to the un. All of those things are not good, if your a freedom loving american.
These people are guilty of treason. And someday when their movement gains strength, will have to be dealt with as the treasonous traiters that they are.

Answer 7

Here is what we know: Blacktop (roads and parking lots) and buildings heat cities; Air pollution causes lung (And other) diseases, deforestation (causing more destruction -duststorms, hurricanes/cyclones all increasing deforestation) and destroys the ozone layer while heating earth surface; fires cause mud slides, deforestation and pollution-more heating surface temperatures; CFC's destroy the ozone layer raising skin cancer rates and killing off endanger species and increased surface temperatures; lighting produces ozone near the surface and raises air pollution levels-more heating, the suns increased magnetic field are causing increases in earthquakes (more destruction), volcanoes (wow), sun spots and more heating. Cars, airplanes, ships and most electricity production causes pollution, warmer temperatures and destruction...But most of this is in our control outside of the sun (Volcanoes and earthquakes are part of the sun magnetic strength): We need to fix it!

Answer 8

This stuff is news-media influenced. Al Gore should be President (I think he got some award for saving the world), heck, not only has he influenced people what it is, his family does what it cause!
Solar Flares.
Stars dieing.
Another Ice Age.
Orbit of Earth around the sun.
The list goes on.
Nothing really to be done, it life. Most people have "Theories"!!!!
But, it a slow process and we all going to die in 2029 when the Asteroid hit on Friday the 13th, Whoooo!

They just say it miss, no need to cause panic until "D" day.

Answer 9

We should be openminded and consider horrible possibilities.Some scientists know how horrible the future might be so they act dumb so as not to scare everyone.Some people are too afraid to look at reality so they hide away and only think about themselves and their family.

Answer 10

Every scientist in the world believes in global warming. But many conservative "think tanks" have their own home-grown "experts" who they call scientists and who deny the scientific facts for political reasons.
