Btw: i think that what is happening up in antartica is just nature. eventually the ice caps have to melt. Right?

Its pretty bad people have to "believe" in global warming like the tooth fairy or something. Global warming is NOT caused by humans. People complain about the CO2 now, well there are volcanoes today that spew out vast amounts of CO2 more right now than man EVER has. I think people used to be all worked up over global cooling too..........
Its a natural chain of events, nature changes everything will be fine. If no one believed it, then it wouldn't be America. Someone has to believe the "sky is falling" and "conspiracy theories"

I'm not here to prove or disprove global warming. I just wanted to point out that your reasoning for not believing in global warming is specious. If you don't know what that means think of the example in the Simpson's: the rock keeps away tigers because there are no tigers around. You are implying that because there have been 3 snowstorms that global warming does not exist when in fact the reason for the snowstorms is the La Nina weather system that is/will be hitting out country this winter. A La Nina weather system is a naturally occurring system that happens on occasion. Does that La Nina have anything to do with global warming? Perhaps, but I think we have more to worry about in life than that.

If someone showed you a piece of candy, and took it away, would you then believe it didn't exist. I am not saying you believe this, but your reasoning is that because you can not see it, it does not exist.
I thought humans beyond the age of 3 possessed logic and reasoning superior to an infant; apparently not.
And in regard to this:
"Let me say it again I DONT BELEVE IN GLOBAL WARMING im just asking."
The only reason I can see for this reiteration from you is that you are trying to reaffirm to us that you will not change your opinion on global warming even though you are asking for facts. Facts are only valuable if you form logical opinions from them, why ask if you are not open to anything besides your terrible opinion.
And no, I do not have to respect your opinion. I respect your right to have one, but that doesn't mean your opinion is worth anything.

of course you should believe in global warming.yes it is true that the Earth does a natural warming every thousand or so years, but it has sky rocketed more than normal in the past hundred or so years. Of course we'll still have snow storms because its not happening super super fast. We may still have snow but we have less than we've ever had before. It is constantly getting warmer on our planet. Its people like you that are causing the world to become like it is.

I am skeptical that humans have caused any dangerous warming. I am also skeptical that anything could be done about it. In addition, greenhouse gases have a moderating effect on temperature. For example when it is cloudy at night, the night time temperatures are generally warmer. GHGs will tend to moderate the temperature by warming the coldest winter days and night time temperatures far more than the hot days. The alarmists never seem to mention this because it doesn't fit their agenda of alarmism.

the snow storms have nothing to do with it. because it its global "warming" people assume that the earth is just going to get hot and we are all going to burn to death. it should be called climate change.
it IS however melting the ice caps at a rapid speed, and if the ice caps melt, they cool the gulf stream up towards where it turns around, and if there are no ice caps to cool the water, which makes the water fall down and continue the current, then the flow will stop and england and europe will be in for a big treat of cold weather. its happened once before called the little ice age.
also, where i live the transition periods like fall and spring are extremely short.
finally they just took a collective temperature of the earth and it DID increase. dont call it global warming. its climate change and it is happening.

i do
if it doesnt happen in Vancouver, there would not be a flood because ice burfgs from the arctic dont melt. In 2010, the vancouver international airport will be sank

It's not like global warming changes makes a climate like Maine into a climate like Florida overnight. It's a warming trend that is gradual. Of course you're still getting snowstorms. And of course our earth is really getting warmer.

i do, and just because you have three snowstorms doesn't mean it isnt real. The fact is winter is getting shorter, and it is constantly getting hotter.

Science isn't something that one has to believe in. It should just be.
No one has to believe 2+2=4. It is and can be proved to be correct.
Science that has to be believed is just faith, something better left to the mystics than to science. To call global warming a science is just as insulting as calling palm reading a science.
