Scientists agree that one volcanic eruption emitts as much greenhouse gas as the entire industrial age. Ice core samples have shown that there have been many periods like what were experiencing now, throughout history. Do you really think that we humans are capable of inflicting the type of damage to the planet that the liberals claim? Personally, I think its a ploy by the american communist party to convince people to follow them.

➔ Global Warming
Lets just say that man is responsible for global warming. Wouldnt the countries with the most dense populations and lack of respect for the eco system be most at fault, like india, china, all third world countries? Then why is the U.S. beat over the head concerning global warming? I agree that global warming exists, i just dont believe we caused it.

heres another little fact that the tree huggers dont like to here. its estimated that there are more tree in N. America now that when the mayflower landed. For every tree weyerhauser timber company cuts down, two are planted in its place. Yes, these trees are eventually cut down, but they mature in 15 to 20 years and clear cutting is staggered (spread out) to maintain log supply. were not hurting for tree folks.

Your facts are correct, and you are absolutely right about the liberal left communist party trying to control everything Americans do. Its not our fault.
Global warming is a 100% political issue.
The problem with the LEFT in this country, especially enviornmentalists, is that they equate equallity of the people with uniformity of the people.
In a political context, to get the uniformity of the people, you need conformity of the people. There is your communism.
To the "man is the cause of global warming" believers, we all must stop using oil, plastic, paper, etc. and immediately do as they say because we are the sinners and they are our saviors.
What happens when you dont conform to their ideas? You'll get taxed, fined, thrown in jail, the government could take everything from you, based on some unproven political theory of global warming.
Liberalism/ enviormantalism is at war with human nature. Liberalism is about getting people to do what they would otherwise never do. They will continue to tax more of our earnings, you cant smoke, you cant drive a car, you cant eat what you want to eat, water bans. It all comes down to this global warming arguement, to get YOU under control.
The enviornmentalists will take a little control here and a little control there, by the end of the day, we are all under their thumb.

the internet is an astounding concept, there is basically an excellent quantity of suggestions obtainable and you may get your palms on it on the press of a button. learn something and get answer's. the priority arises whilst human beings already 'be responsive to the respond' and use the internet to cajole themselves of an untruth, to dispute, as an occasion, evolution or the holocaust....or perhaps international warming... And basically clarify the bit approximately controlling the loads, I fail to work out how taking a greater being concerned attitude to the ecosystem is going besides to regulate the loads. Isnt it actually any incorrect way around and the certainty that the loads have been controlled that has led to this difficulty interior the 1st place???

Earth goes through cycles, we are nearing the end of an ice age now. So, of course the climate changes. However, by emitting as many greenhouse gases as we are, humans are accelerating the process dangerously.
Are humans capable of inflicting this much damage? Look at deforestation, water pollution, air pollution... all a direct result of human activity. As forests are the lungs of the earth, taking in the CO2, and we're clearing them at this rate, where does all the excess CO2 go? Factories emitting tonnes of chemical gases into the atmosphere, causing acid rain among other things... do you honestly think humans aren't capable of such damage?
Why must it be a ploy by the American communist party when the whole world is involved?

All evidence point to the current trend of global warming being caused/accelerated by human action. the volcano thing is a smoke screen. Because an eruption is a 1 time event it would cause a rapid spike in temperature, not the continued rise that we see.
If you look at all the facts, humans are doing harm to the planet. We need to change the way we do things.
and what do communist have to do with this?

Ah , who really knows anyway ... Seems to me the gov. just wants people to vote in some new useless tax to " fix " it . Even if " we " are the cause of it what's gov gonna do about it ? Even if America shut down everything would it not only be about 20 % of the global problem ? Screw it , Global warming is a myth .... If it got colder would the crazy people start saying ... Ohhh Nooo it's a manmade ice age

People are arrogant. To think that humans can "damage" the earth is just stupid. The earth's mass is 5,972,000,000,000,000,000,000 tons, and humans are very insignificant in comparison. People need to quit thinking they have such enormous influence. The earth has been around long before we were here, and will continue long after we're gone. Spend more time worrying about how you treat those who are close to you - Your family, freinds, etc. - instead of pretending you have some influence on the entire planet.

The devil is in the details, isn't it, Jon?
I've noticed a discrepancy on this site in the use of terminoloogy, resulting in a sloppy discourse on the topic. The last of the links I offer below has a glossary of terms, but I'll throw in the key terms being used in the field of play:
Global Warming is defined as an increase in the earth's atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution.
·
The Greenhouse Effect is the trapping and build-up of heat in the atmosphere (troposphere) near the Earth’s surface. Some of the heat flowing back toward space from the Earth's surface is absorbed by water vapor, carbon dioxide, ozone, and several other gases in the atmosphere and then reradiated back toward the Earth’s surface. If the atmospheric concentrations of these greenhouse gases rise, the average temperature of the lower atmosphere will gradually increase.
Climate Change is defined as a study dealing with variations in climate on many different time scales from decades to millions of years, and the possible causes of such variations. Human-induced climate change has the potential to alter the prevalence and severity of extremes such as heat waves, cold waves, storms, floods and droughts.
Based on the above, I'd have to say that global warming is well documented and accepted, has been for years. Most of the current debate is being waged over human-related climate change.
I hadn't seen the American Communist Party blamed for this yet. Good one, but no. It's a post-Industrial age phenomenon that merits our full attention and respect, and solutions are being identified as we speak, implementation and funding is just around the corner.

I believe that although there are natural cycles of global warming and global cooling in our climate, that humans are knocking the scale off balance. There's so many sources of carbon dioxide not being produced by the animal kingdom that the only people who can truly believe that humans have nothing to do with global warming are those who are trying to twist science to suit political purposes.
Animals aren't operating motor vehicles. Animals aren't operating coal fired power plants and factories. Animals aren't using coal and petroleum based heating in their homes.
What I'd really like to see is for the global warming issue to become a scientific topic and not a political one.

Global warming is a bunch of hooey. Looking at only the last 150 or so years and freaking out about the planet getting warmer is goofy. There is no way you can look at something as huge and ancient as the planet and tell me that you know what's going to happen next. So no, I don't think it's our fault. It's just another politically-charged, trendy bandwagon on which they expect us to hop.

If your theory is valid, how would you explain then the rise of world/global temperature? Volcanic eruptions are basically sulfur gases, which somehow have higher heat capacity but the net heat capacity of industrial gases such as Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, Nitrogen oxides, methane and other gases have compelex reactions in the atmosphere like thinning of the ozone layer aside from the heat capacity that it can retain in our atmosphere.
