Isn't this a preposterous claim? Most things are harmful to human health at different levels. Even oxygen can kill people at high levels, as oxygen is very corrosive. This is why deep divers use exotic blends of air.

Isn't the claim that if you don't believe in global warming like they do, then you're for polluting the planet, putting arsenic in drinking water, killing children, burning down forests, chopping down the rain forest, melting ice caps, killing polar bears and penguins, ect.....?

Isn't this just a desperate move from someone who can't win a scientific debate with facts?

Just tell us if it will be warmer or colder next month and how you came to that conclusion to show us how wrong us skeptics are instead of arguing by intimidation.

At first glance, it seems like a preposterous claim, but, upon careful consideration, its logic becomes clear. When global warming alarmists are gulping down the IPCC's Kool-Aid and they don't see global warming skeptics doing the same, they start to wonder what the global warming skeptics are drinking. Through the same sort of convoluted thought processes that herald Al Gore as the world's greatest pacifist, they conclude that global warming skeptics are drinking water with precisely 387 ppm of arsenic.

There isn't a municipal water supply anywhere that DOES NOT have arsenic at the tap.Water suppliers are required to publicly disclose,on a yearly basis, the levels of ALL contaminants.
The enviro-wackos would have you believe that the water from your tap is beyond safe levels but if you go to the outfit that supplies your water they will hand you a certified analysis of your town's water.This is required by law also.
The 'arguments' that enviros use are specious at best..patently false for the most.
The enviros would have you believe that disaster looms over your head...and yet they do not insist that other nations follow US standards(which far and above are better than any other nations) EXAMPLE...El Paso Texas is required by law to meet EPA standards of Air Quality.Across the river in Juarez Mexico there are no such regulations whatsoever.They pollute both sky and the river with impunity BUT it is El Paso that gets fines for air quality...water quality..the crap blows and flows over with the wind and Americans are fined.What are the enviros doing about that? Mexico signed that Kyoto boondoggle and they ignore it at all turns.
We didn't 'sign' it because it was patently unfair to expect that we would be treated fairly,and its provisions would allow FOREIGN oversight and authority over US laws.

Global warming = elevated temperature

Go to http://www.thermoguy.com/globalwarming-heatgain.html and see the source of heat. The earth's surface isn't absorbing the sun's rays, UV is generating extreme heat atmospherically. The heat changes air pressure which in turn interacts with high pressure areas causing weather changes.

It will be colder next month, it is December and I live in the north.

Of course I accept 21st century man must indeed responsible for the global warming because the BBC said so and according to the unbiased BBC "there are no scientists in the world who do not believe man is responsible for the global warming now happening on this Planet". The BBC would not tell lies would they, particularly as Tony Blair said that too and we know he never told lies about anything?

I wonder though are all those scientists, metereorology experts and other academics from all over the world who made the Channel Four documentary earlier this year "The Great Global Warming swindle" really non existent?

And when BBC News 24 gave a news item a few weeks ago saying it had now been proved beyond all doubt that world temperatures were increasing at an unprecedented rate since the millenium and "the sun had been proved as not being responsible for global warming", that person who the BBC News 24 let into their studio to try to humiliate over his belief that the sun was responsible, who actually who made that BBC lady interviewer look like an idiot by producing official World Meteorological charts showing that world temperatures had in fact not increased at all since 1998 and even despite China having put into operation two newly built fossil fuelled power stations per week, before the BBC cut him off - was he a fantasy too?

Just one thing puzzles me a little. If indeed men like me are to blame for this terrible global warming, (like tonight I irresponsibly filled my kettle to the top to brew myself a cup of tea so must have increased the CO2 phenominally by such irresponsible behaviour), how is it that according to the
scientific data and historical facts revealed on the referred to Channel Four documentary earlier this year, global warning was so much greater in certain warming cycles for millions and millions of years before man ever existed on this planet?

And if indeed this terrible destruction of Planet Earth is primarily due to the generation of electricity by fossil fuels
and due to selfish arsenic drinkers like you and me, how comes it that before the invention of electricity when other men lived on this planet, temperatures went considerably higher than today in many warming cycles and the polar ice caps melted a lot more intensely than they are today?

Please explain Dr Jello because as well as being an arsenic drinker, planet polluter, forest burner and all that I am too thick to understand these things?

it is just a way to control people and usher in socialism

in the 40's it was global warming, in the 70-80's it was global cooling

people tend to have short memories and are easily manipulated because they don't take the time to do a little research as the cave man suggests

The point is that some things have very large effects in very small amounts. And that those effects can shift from positive to negative as the amount increases, even though it is still seemingly very small.

Arsenic at tiny levels, can be good for some living things. At slightly higher levels it can be toxic to others.

Bottom line: Just because CO2 levels seem to be small doesn't mean it can't have large effects. And just because it's essential at low levels, doesn't mean it can't be a "pollutant" at higher levels.

Al Gore won't be happy until you surrender your freedoms and your income to the Democrat politicians. Don't we all want to make Al Gore, the inventor of the Internet, happy?
