@superOOman We know the causes of the ice ages. Thing dont "just happen" without causes. Its not Al Gores graph. That was from scientific research and real data.
@superOOman Im just saying, my friend in my english class told me all about the global warming concepts, then I learned there was another side to the story. I just wanna share the different possibilities. IDK what I actually believe, but either side is plausible. That video will show that that IS Al Gores graph, and it will also show IPCC'S graph. So there ya go.
@superOOman I find it very hard to believe that you attend English class.
Why do you listen to your friend? Is s/he a peer reviewed climate scientist? Or another one of these geologists, chemists, dentists and tobacco salesmen?
I have a very qualified auto mechanic, but I don't go to see him when I am affected by a chronic medical condition.
Don't even watch this video. Just read the uploader's description. It is flawlessly documented. watch?v=l3vIWD4tAHc
@kubush Have they? How? Wouldn't that also make sense? I mean, the flares are way bigger than earth. What about, its just what is happening? Like the ice age, and the little ice age. Levels of temp and carbon dioxide have always gone up and down, but according to Al Gores graph, it is said that it looked like a hockey stick, ruling out any possibilities for other explanations, especially by saying "The debate is over." The debate is not over, you can't just say, 'its over, im right.'
@superOOman Changing solar activity has gone through roughly 11 year cycles for the past 4.5 billion years. Your including irrelevant and tangential facts to the table (Solar flares are larger than the Earth) makes you feel important, does it?
The Sun is 93 million miles from us. Energy is dispersed in every direction. The intensity of energy weakens by the square root of the distance. Either a flare or a CME (not the same), even if pointed directly at us has very little effect.
@superOOman I don't know why you didn't understand the first time. obviously human industry wasn't around during previous increases in temp but that doesnt mean that co2 isnt the cause of the current warming.
@kubush But it also doesn't mean that the suns extra violent nature respectively is not the cause of the warming. I have a thing with questioning authority, especially when they can publicize whatever they want and abuse their power for personal gain. And Al Gore is no scientist, he is a politician with political views and political interests and hella money to pay people off. Bill Maher attacked the opposing view in a fallacious manner and didnt support his side with any evidence.
@kubush Actually, I thought that the other explanation was that the sun being more active with its flares and such are what is causing the temperature increase. And like I said already, carbon dioxide levels rise after the temp. So if THIS is real, then for Al Gore to claim it is OUR faults would be FEAR MONGERING.... Buy a Prius? lol, naaahhh...
Basically, history records show that when temperature increased, the carbon dioxide levels would increase AFTER, not before. Plus, BILL MAHER? I have seen him dog the shit out of RON PAUL, then actually invite him onto his show and he talked SOOOO highly of him and was SOOO nice to RON PAUL. Bill seems to be two faced and full of fallacies.
Dude, they are NOT saying that global warming is not real. They ARE saying that man creating global warming is not TRUE. The theory of global warming lies on the conception that our burning so much fossil fuel is creating higher CARBON DIOXIDE levels bringing HIGHER TEMPERATURES. The argument AGAINST this says that according to all of history, carbon dioxide levels are INFLUENCED BY the temperature, NOT the temperature being INFLUENCED BY carbon dioxide levels. Its not us,its probably the sun
I have to tell you, I live on the Pacific coast and there has been no visible rise in the ocean tides. So if the poles are melting, where has all the water gone?
@brucegraham36 Hah! "I haven't seen the tides rise" is the equal of sticking your head in the sand by telling everyone "There is a foot of snow outside, global warming is a myth."
Have you measured the sea levels? If not you, please cite your source.
BTW, that snow represents precipitation, not temperature. Climatologists predicted additional precipitation as a result of changing weather patterns.
@spamvigilante Really? You'd think after 40 years in the same house on the beach there'd be some sign of the tide levels increasing due to the melting ice caps. Oh sorry; Mr. Mahar says there's more flooding and hurricanes and less water now because the ice caps are melting. I wonder where all that water went.
@spamvigilante GOP?? Sorry I'm nonpartisan. Did I measure? Hmmm....well my house hasn't washed away in the supposed rising sea yet, and it's only 10 feet from the breakers. Should I be wading out a half mile with a yard stick?
@brucegraham36 Forty years living only ten feet from the choppy waves of the Pacific? And your house was never affected?
You are stunningly full of shit. It's amazingly easy to root out troll fools like you on the web. You are always rich, handsome, powerful and everybody loves you. So long as you hide behind your keyboard.
But you're a special one. You have a house with a magic bubble around it.
@spamvigilante Well I grew up in my parent's house and when they passed I got it. Sorry the breakwater kept the storms from hammering the building. Never was rich, or beautiful, and certianly have lots of people who wish I'd just shoot them. So, you make your assertions based on imaginary assumptions. I can only guess you don't pay any carbon taxes yet.
@spamvigilante Whatever you say, you sponge. How very sad.
Carbon tax? Do you mean cap and trade? The consumer will only pay more for energy if s/he buys from a polluter. This is simple stuff. It should be right up your alley.
@matt3966 It just goes to show that this petition doesnt have much credibility because they dont screen the people. But thats just the start of the problems with this petition.
@kubush But the same thing has happened with the IPCC. And thats just the start of the problems with their approach on the "scary humans being the end of civilization in the next few years because of carbon dioxide releases" thing. Sorry man, I'm not here to piss you off or disagree, I just want to talk about it. There has to be more to this than they share.
@butler365 Science is subject to peer review. It must be reproducible and challengeable.
Galileo Galilei used experiments that proved the theories of Nicolaus Copernicus.
Charles Darwin has not been disproven. Unless you include people who think the Earth is only 6000 years old and was created by an invisible man in the sky shouting "abracadabra". And that is not science. It is belief. It cannot be reproducible or challengeable. .
I am quite aware of the process of peer review. What I keep hearing from AGW supporters such as Maher; is “the science is settled,’ or the “debate is over”. Him claiming that every scientist in the world supports AGW or that its not a theory but as much of a fact as 1+1 = 2, is clearly ridiculous. Just because there is a consensus of people in the media to support AGW, far from makes in an absolute fact. If that were the case, why not believe in eugenics or the global cooling scare of the 70s?
"every scientist in the world".................. so what about the the oregon petition that was signed by 31,000 scientist who argue against global warming.
To say that we shouldn't teach kids about global warming because they will find it scary is ridiculous! I remember being scared when I learned about earthquakes in elementary school. I thought the world was going to swallow me whole. Kids have big imaginations. Another child might be afraid when they learned about slavery or World War 2. But we have to teach children about the realities. They will have to face them sooner or later.
@JonLeGanj Why anyone still thinks global climate change is a debate puzzles me. The properties of CO2 as a greenhouse gas that traps the heat of the sun was proved ages ago. It exists in the atmosphere to naturally warm the planet. Except we're now producing it in huge quantities because we are taking it out of the ground where it was trapped as oil and releasing it by burning oil. It's not rocket science.
@AveysGottaTalk well CO2 is a fairly heavy gas meaning it stays closer to the Earth making it not the most effective greenhouse gas, water vapor however accounts for the highest percentage of the greenhouse effect. Global warming isnt man made, just wait 10-15 years and youll be hearing about "Global Cooling" just like 20 years ago, why because the Earth is constantly changing and theres nothing we can do about it and the media loves making money from things like this.
@JonLeGanj Water vapor is also a byproduct of burning fossil fuels. Combining a hydrocarbon with oxygen results in carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and water.
There goes your stupidity as a valid argument.
But your foolishness in your comment that CO2 is heavy so it's all at the surface is absurd. O2 is heavier than N2 but over 80% of what we breathe is nitrogen. How did it get down here? The same way that CO2 makes its way into the stratosphere.
@spamvigilante ok sir keep believing in all the propaganda and bullshit coming from the media, all i have to say is wait 15 years and people will be telling you were gonna have an ice age, and you will believe them. CO2 isnt deadly, ESPECIALLY at the level it is right now. and one other thing, its been proven that co2 doesnt drive temperature, its temperature that drives co2 levels, so how can co2 change the temperature of the Earth? it cant, suck it bitch.
@JonLeGanj No you fool. Pay attention. I am listening to those QUALIFIED CLIMATOLOGISTS with PEER REVIEWED PAPERS. Not the media. Who are you listening to? Please cite your sources of idiocy.
CO2 isn't deadly? How did Dr. Kevorkian perform his assisted suicides? Oh right, leaving the car running in the garage. What's the largest percentage of emissions coming from that tailpipe in the closed garage?
Why are you unable to pay attention to fact and reality?
@spamvigilante LMFAO you just proved that your retarded, people die in the garage from leaving the car on because of the carbon MONoxide not carbon dioxide, your a fucking moron lmfao.
@JonLePEWj Wrong, you stupid Red State hick. Obviously, your reading comprehension skills from being home schooled in a trailer at the end of the gravel road has failed you.
Did you see where I asked about the primary emissions were CO2?
Did I use words that were too big you to mouth out?
Do you remember Apollo 13 and how the three astronauts were subject to mortal threat of CO2 poisoning? No CO on either the Command Module or LEM.
@spamvigilante dude i feel like im arguing with a mentally handicapped child, i dont give a fuck if CO2 is the primary emission from a car, it still isnt what kills a person. And no fucking shit if your stuck in a fucking small ass place your clearly going to run out of oxygen and die you dumbfuck, it doesnt matter what gas your breathing in, if you use up the oxygen, you will die. your rebuttals are retarded lmfao
@JonLeGanj No, you fool. On the crippled Apollo 13 flight, the chemical scrubbers on the LEM were insufficient to remove CO2 from the CM cabin. There was plenty of oxygen. Three astronauts were at mortal risk.
CO2 is a poisonous gas, regardless of how much oxygen exists in the atmosphere.
I'm sorry that you are unable to comprehend simple English and simple concepts. And I am very happy to prove you wrong beyond the shadow of a doubt.
@spamvigilante "Mechanical shock forced the oxygen valves closed on the number 1 and number 3 fuel cells, which left them operating for only about three minutes on the oxygen in the feed lines." Once again i proved you wrong, but im sure your gonna come up with some crazy absurd rebuttal that makes no sense because your ignorant ass cant deal with the fact that you are wrong.
@spamvigilante "With warning lights blinking on, One Oxygen tank appeared to be completely empty, and there were indications that the oxygen in the second tank was rapidly being depleted." "It was oxygen gas escaping at a high rate from the second, and last, oxygen tank." this came from science.ksc.nasa.gov/history/apollo/apollo-13/apollo-13.htmlwebsite, their tanks were LOSING oxygen you fucking retard, "there was plenty of oxygen" your full of shit buddy, thanks for the laugh
@LePew There was plenty of O2 in the LEM, which they used as a rescue vehicle for the trip back. The CO2 scrubbers were only designed for a one day excursion and the inoperable cartridges in the CM were sufficient but the CM had no power. The LEM had power and O2.
Did you go to the NASA URL that I provided?
Everything you cited relates to the disabled CM. The LEM had functioning scrubbers until day 2. Without O2 anywhere, who lives?
Why is disproving you so easy? You go on tangents.
@spamvigilante just get over it CO2 wont be harming anyone, and people arent changing the earth's climate, now go back to your crazy liberal lala land and take it up the ass. And i love how you assume im from a "red state" and im a "hick" both of those allegations being quite far from the truth. cant wait to debunk your next fallacious statement.
@JonLePUKE You cretin, I have totally DESTROYED your faulty assertion that it's not poison. 78% of what comes out of a car's tailpipe is nitrogen. An inert gas; it just passes through the engine. After the catalytic converter, the remainder is carbon dioxide and water.
Are you suggesting that Jack Kevorkian killed people in their closed garages with water vapor? Inert nitrogen?
But you maintain it's carbon monoxide. Fools like you are so easy to beat. I just post a couple of facts.
@spamvigilante heres a fun fact "The Earth's Atmosphere is currently about 338 parts per million of CO2 and in Navy submarines, it isn't until 8,000 parts per million that it becomes dangerous."
@JonLeGanj lol, whats funny is, i haven't smelt any carbon dioxide outside, like, ever. Not unless a big ass truck stops in front of me. But carbon dioxide is part of our atmosphere! Ya know?
@spamvigilante mmm, im sorry, but I dont understand what you are saying. I gather that carbon dioxide has no smell, from what you said. So I retract that comment. As far as illiterate red states and Roger Ailes, I dont know about them.
@superOOman Dummy, you had meant "smelled". To smelt is to obtain metal from ore by melting the ore.
It's fun to watch you uneducated fools post stupididy in forums and then try to double down.
Do you know the difference between SMELLED and SMELT? Perhaps you do now, though I wouldn't count on it.
And please tell us about context. What would have been the right context? Your stupidity is amazing. You heard someone use that verbiage and it sounded important, right?
@spamvigilante You are such self righteous dick. If you cant catch what someone is trying to say, then you are just asking for an argument. Stay on topic. Ridiculing me like that was pointless. I am here to educate myself on both sides, not just one side. Don't assume I have a strong one sided opinion. Pointing out so-called uneducated fools for little mistakes off of the topic when one is here to educate them selves on the topic is ignorant. You aren't helping anyone.
@spamvigilante If you have so much knowledge, then get off of your high horse and share. There is no reasoning behind your attitude toward me. I wasn't being disrespectful to you.
@JonLeGanj Hey fuckhead, here's a fun fact for dipshits like you that think automobile emissions are mostly carbon monoxide. Every car sold in the US since the late 70's came equipped with a catalytic converter. This device not only reduces CO to negligible amounts but oxides of nitrogen as well. The result? Almost purely water vapor and carbon dioxide, the latter I have already proven to you to be poisonous.
But you know what? H2O and CO2 are greenhouse gasses.
@spamvigilante Why are you so aggressive toward everybody? Sounds like you need to wake up from being so rude. You shouldn't talk to people like that.
@JonLeGanj this is awesome. now you admit that carbon dioxide is poisonous. you said it was harmless. why are you changing your position and making such an ass of yourself?
@yourealiti Let me add that this petition was said to have changed the wording of the petition after the fact, that many of the names aren't even verifiable, and that it even had names such as Elvis, Mickey Mouse, and Donald Duck in it. And this is your evidence? Gtfo.
@yourealiti Only 9000 or so of those listed have phds, and nearly none of them are even in the field of climate science. This petition project has been debunked a long time ago. There was a real survey done for active climate scientists, and 97% said AGW was real. So other than a debunked list, whats your evidence?
You still have no evidence you retard human being! Just you own opinion! I have evidence nigger what else do you want? are you a fucking woman? Because you must be the stupidest cunt I have ever seen... THESE ARE REAL SCIENTISTS petitionproject(DOT)org. If you reply to me one more time without good evidence I win and and Im done with this conversation.
@yourealiti@yourealiti What does the swine flu have to do with global warming? The fact that you think Gore is working with a company that doesn't exist anymore, destroys your credibility.
@yourealiti Another moron citing the list full of non scientists, oh and lets not forget Elvis. lol. Mr. Fidel? I think you have me confused with someone else. Oh, and its you're a dumb mofo, not "your". Idiot.
Al Gore is just a sales man! CO2 is not a pollutant!!!!! What happened to de-forestation? All the garbage we are producing? oil spills? This is just propaganda Enron is working with Gore to pass a bill to tax CO2 THE SAME COMPANY that bankrupt the U.S! So all of you who support Gore go fucking kill yourself because your exhaling to much dangerous CO2.
@yourealiti The science of climate change exists with or without Al Gore. What about garbage, oil spills and deforestation? Those are problems too, and...? Enron? Enron doesn't exist anymore. And it was hardly the reason for our economic problems. Please get your facts straight before you come back and regurgitate more of your bullshit here.
Your a dumb mother fucker. here is your list bitch petitionproject(DOT)org 33,000 scientists!! You Believe everything the government is telling you or the mainstream media?! And you believe in the swine flue!? /watch?v=4jQAtxOl6F4. Have you tried thinking lately? or is your socialist mind not used to that? Mr Fidel where are you now? you wanna make $40/month? If you need any other facts let me know because I am correct and will support my opinion. You are wrong +no evidence
Why does Bill Maher believe the vast majority of scientists when it comes to evolution, and global warming, but he refuses to believe the vast majority of scientists when it comes to vaccinations? I don't get it.
@jmg94j He is not against vaccinations. He's against vaccinations being used for EVERYTHING, when for the most part all you need to do is exercise regularly and eat healthy.
I have an open mind about climate change, and I have seen and read evidence from both sides. My opinion is that we have only began to scratch the surface on this issue. Scientists have been wrong on basically everything when they first discover something and develope a hypothesis. When you have over 30,000 scientists telling you that al gore is full of shit, I think you should at least look at the evidence and not just assume that all people against global warming are dults.
@Gtjg88 Al Gore is a great presenter, though certainly not a scientist. Be aware of what exactly these "scientists" are being asked in surveys. Also look at the reputation of the publication, and the qualifications and volunteered disclosures of those involved. I would think that such a shocking figure of "scientists" were primed in the survey or were critcising certain simplifications in his film. This is a natural and unfortunate part of time-restricted presentations.
It's incredibly asinine to think that just because something hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. And shouldn't Americans back this thing like crazy, it's easily the most paranoid place on earth.
I love how the common rabble think that some how hundreds of scientists (some of the smartest people in the world, smarter than you or I that's for damn sure) who lives has been dedicated to this discipline are doing it just for attention. just because scientist speculate (something they do on a regular basis) these doomsday scenario doesn't mean it going to happen tomorrow! And that's the point, we have time now to curb our habits, why not use it? Some guesses for the sea level to start rising
lol global warming is funny, because if you believe in global warming, then you have to be a doomday dude. pathetic, (if you can't see the connection or link between, global warming and doomsday) then your not worth my time you stupid morons believing in such nonsense.
Most of the time Bill is on the money, but after watching this, he is either on the 'Climate Change' gravy train like Al Gore and thousands of scientists or he is dumber than he comes across.
@KRW1612 Youre either influenced by science or conservative talk radio shows, if you choose to buy into the Phil Valentine ( HS Graduate) school of stupid thats your problem.
@MelkorHimself This is true. H2O has the habit of precipitating out of the atmosphere and returning to liquid phase. CO2 is important to ensure proper trophospheric temperatures to set up H2O vapour due to evaporation. The question is not about natural cycles being bad, but about humans upsetting the balance of trace gases like CO2 N2O and CH4 to push global temperatures (on average) higher. This is all about the interconnectedness of natural cycles, and how we are upsetting them.
This is the most simple way to put it that I can personally think of. If you don't believe there is evidence to support GCC, you also must not believe that there is evidence that blankets keep you more warm. It's the same principal, weight = heat, even on an atomic level.
Of course it's overwhelmingly evident that the global temperature is rising. The real issue is that most people believe it is 100% our fault which couldn't be further from the truth. Yea, the Earth is getting hotter, but it is the result of temperature cycles on a massively huge scale, and other non human contributed factors like those of plate tectonics and the sun. Yes, we have made a dent in the ozone during our short existence, but that has nothing to do with planetary temperature cycles.
@jeremymfontaine Since you seem to know what you are talking about...How long is the planetary temperature cycle of the earth? And how much does the avarage global temperature differ within one cycle? I just want to compare that with the recent temperature change that we humans are guilty of.
@kubush They have considered those things - and a degree of the data collected has still suggested that it may very well be those things. Now, I don't want to come across sounding like the stupid redneck hicks who say this sort of thing, but, it's just way too soon to be picking absolutes or ruling out either side of the debate just yet.
"Yes, we have made a dent in the ozone during our short existence, but that has nothing to do with planetary temperature cycles."
You seem very sure of this, based on what? Don't you think it prudent to take precautions against what could be a global catastrophe, in case you are wrong, and the overwhelming majority of people who study this for a living right?
Global warming has never been attributed 100% humankind's fault, at least not by anyone with actual knowledge about it. But that shouldn't mean humankind is faultless in the equation.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
"all the scientists on one side"
LOL, only in USA over 30.000 scientists have signed petition *against* AGW alarmism. That means scientists, not so-called scientists studying social pseudo-sciences. Almost 10000 of those who have signed the petition are PhDs.
@JaroslavOfTheWorld Yeah, that list of "scientists" has already been long debunked. Most are not scientists, and nearly none are active climate scientists. 97% of active climate scientists say AGW is real. Now that is a scientific consensus.
@kubush "Scientist" is a rather finicky term, actually. To who "is" and "isn't" a scientist is something most people can't agree upon - and those studies you've read? Most of them are very selective with the "scientists" they choose to survey, often excluding large branches of the scientific community who would disagree. In fact, a number of the people surveyed were just anthropologists or political scientists with no authority whatsoever on the subject.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@kubush Who cares? Science is not based on consensus. It's based on provable facts and the AGW crowd does NOT have the facts on their side. People in droves are jumping off the bandwagon. The scientist, Fritz Vahrenholt is just the latest. He's not a climate scientist but neither are most of the contributors to the IPCC reports.
@Siedlerdeo How about you read a FUCKING SCIENTIFIC PAPER on the subject? The "resulting ice age" that geologists talk about is tens of thousands of years away but the current trend is WARMING! Douche
"Current trend is WARMING" Wow that sounds like something pulled out of your ass.
Not something coming from a formal study...
Fact of the matter is that nothing is certain, the next Ice age doesn't have a timer, and if you actually read a study you would know that all scientists say that it can happen at any time, no one has a fucking clue......
While I'm not a huge Bill Maher fan simply because his mouth runneth over...I can honestly agree with him on this one issue and glad he's smart to agree with the Global warming stance. Kubush, exactly right! And if anyone has ever heard of Chemtrails...they'll know what you mean as well...if not...look it up...Geoengineers are in the process of seeding cloud to help with Global Warming...although I believe there are other issues in the skies above as well...to which I will not comment about here
@luismanuel1978 Why? What is your basis for such an accusation? Don't call people names without giving us some proof of your position. Your ignorance is showing.
"Human Activity... is the dominant cause of these changes in atmospheric composition. Human activity is the undeniable source of atmospheric halo-carbons because the vast majority of these gases do not occur naturally."
"...CO2 concentration has risen from about 280 ppm to around 370ppm today, CH$ has risen from about 700 ppb to1700 ppb and N2O has increased from about 270 ppb to over 310 ppb. Halo-carbons, largely nonexistent prior to the 1950's now present in amounts that have noticeable greenhouse effect."
".... ice cores show that the concentration of these gases are much higher than pre-industrial times and far exceed levels of the preceding 10,000 years."
From global geological evidence we can plainly see that PETM (Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum) was caused by highly elevated CO2 levels and the effects it had on life on earth including extinction of over 1/3 of species. Effectively humans are creating the same environment in a much shorter time frame.
@bigbadwolfy1977 There IS proof that global warming exists. Just open your damn eyes, seriously. No serious climate scientist denies that Global Warming is occurring. Why? Because ALL the data shows that it is warming! Denying the FACTS makes you like a religious person.
@cookie4joe the dire predictions behind global warming has caused a lot of people to cling to the issue and be very contentious toward anyone who disagrees ..VERY SIMILAR TO A RELIGION.
@TheSmittel Wrong. Denialism is similar to a RELIGION. Deny the FACT that the Earth is warming with all the data and evidence in front of your face, is just like a religion.
@murdock283 Your logic is faulty. Just because something hasn't happened in the past doesn't mean it isn't happening now. Humans weren't here since the beginning of Earth, nor has our industrialization.
@kubush And how do you explain a period of warming back during the Mesozoic age? There weren't any humans alive during the time. Did the dinosaurs spin donuts in their Hummers all day to cause it?
@kubush He doesn't believe what you're saying. What he believes is that the earth has ALWAYS been heating and cooling from the varied effects of the SUN and MAN has only been around for a FRACTION of the time, then it is logical to conclude that man has nothing to do with global warming. (Which will be called Global Cooling when the poles re align again). I lost a lot of respect for Bill Maher after seeing this. Nice to know he can be paid off just like anyone else.
@omnimous69, just to make sure I'm hearing your point correctly. Your arguing that the majority of heating/cooling of the planet in the past was due to the sun and other environmental factors, that there is no way that Humans can have an impact on Global warming?
You go a step further to say that Bill Maher must have been paid off to say what he said, because you can't believe that he believes it? And yet he in line with the vast majority of scientists. your argument = fail.
@omnimous69 How exactly is that logical? Just because heating wasn't caused by humans in the past doesn't mean that the heating we are observing today isn't being caused by humans.
@kubush Yeah like the record cold temps were experiencing now yeah snow am really scared i may boil to death due to the intense heat outside you retard
@MultiShampain Record cold temperatures in a local area doesn't saying anything about the state of global climate. Please learn the difference between global climate and local weather, retard.
Yes, it has always been happening, but not by this speed! That's the whole thing. Climate change is happening way too fast for it to be natural! Very simple to understand. Not deniable. Not believing in global warming is like believing in God. You do it for the comfort, and that's stupid!
@Anto0044 At what speed? During last decade it hasn't got any warmer at all. Quite the opposite, USA itself got actually COOLER ffs. Stop repeating this AGW b/s.
"U.S. Cooling, Not Warming, Over Past Decade, Govt. Data Shows"
@JaroslavOfTheWorld You know, when you measure a change in something, like avarage temperature, the longer time you take in count, the more accurate result you get. The study you are referring too showed indeed some cooling in the USA over the last ten years, but that doesn't say anything, since the very same study shows that the worldwide avarage temperature have increased over the last 100 years.
@Anto0044 You believe in global warming for comfort so you can throw you chemically contaminated trash into a dumpster, so you can pee perscription drugs into the toilet that isn't being filtered, so you won't feel like a conspiracy theorist, so you won't look like you don't care about something the media says is important.
@MadeByEduNotLaziness Why so ignorant and judging? You think I throw my chemically contaminated trash into a dumpster? No, I separately collect my garbage, paper in one bag, plastic in another, and hazardous waste in the bin that sais hazardous waste. My toilet is of course filtered. Why would I let my pee go direclty into a lake? That sounds very irresponsible and dumb. The way you judge me make you look like a dumb angry conspiracy theorist.. oh, wich you are... I forgot.
@Anto0044 Are you really that dumb? Recycling causes a lot pollution. Hazardous waste goes somewhere you know. Your toilet isn't filtered the way you think it is. If you take any prescription drug and use a toilet it contaminates the water even if pretreated. You have no control where your pee goes after it's flushed. Study up on it, oh wait you just listen to all the words your liberal heros say as your Bible gospel and don't have time to verify it. Excuse me for reading up.
@superOOman There is nothing that came out of the ipcc that isnt true or within very real possibility (when it comes to predictions).

Levels of temp and carbon dioxide have always gone up and down, but according to Al Gores graph, it is said that it looked like a hockey stick, ruling out any possibilities for other explanations, especially by saying "The debate is over." The debate is not over, you can't just say, 'its over, im right.'

@superOOman Changing solar activity has gone through roughly 11 year cycles for the past 4.5 billion years. Your including irrelevant and tangential facts to the table (Solar flares are larger than the Earth) makes you feel important, does it?
The Sun is 93 million miles from us. Energy is dispersed in every direction. The intensity of energy weakens by the square root of the distance. Either a flare or a CME (not the same), even if pointed directly at us has very little effect.

I have a thing with questioning authority, especially when they can publicize whatever they want and abuse their power for personal gain.

@kubush Actually, I thought that the other explanation was that the sun being more active with its flares and such are what is causing the temperature increase. And like I said already, carbon dioxide levels rise after the temp. So if THIS is real, then for Al Gore to claim it is OUR faults would be FEAR MONGERING.... Buy a Prius? lol, naaahhh...

Dude, they are NOT saying that global warming is not real. They ARE saying that man creating global warming is not TRUE. The theory of global warming lies on the conception that our burning so much fossil fuel is creating higher CARBON DIOXIDE levels bringing HIGHER TEMPERATURES. The argument AGAINST this says that according to all of history, carbon dioxide levels are INFLUENCED BY the temperature, NOT the temperature being INFLUENCED BY carbon dioxide levels. Its not us,its probably the sun

@AveysGottaTalk well CO2 is a fairly heavy gas meaning it stays closer to the Earth making it not the most effective greenhouse gas, water vapor however accounts for the highest percentage of the greenhouse effect.

Of course it's overwhelmingly evident that the global temperature is rising. The real issue is that most people believe it is 100% our fault which couldn't be further from the truth. Yea, the Earth is getting hotter, but it is the result of temperature cycles on a massively huge scale, and other non human contributed factors like those of plate tectonics and the sun.

@JaroslavOfTheWorld Yeah, that list of "scientists" has already been long debunked. Most are not scientists, and nearly none are active climate scientists. 97% of active climate scientists say AGW is real. Now that is a scientific consensus.

@kubush "Scientist" is a rather finicky term, actually. To who "is" and "isn't" a scientist is something most people can't agree upon - and those studies you've read? Most of them are very selective with the "scientists" they choose to survey, often excluding large branches of the scientific community who would disagree. In fact, a number of the people surveyed were just anthropologists or political scientists with no authority whatsoever on the subject.

@kubush Who cares? Science is not based on consensus. It's based on provable facts and the AGW crowd does NOT have the facts on their side. People in droves are jumping off the bandwagon. The scientist, Fritz Vahrenholt is just the latest. He's not a climate scientist but neither are most of the contributors to the IPCC reports.

@kubush AL GORE DESCRIBES IT IN HIS FUCKING MOVIE! WATCH IT!
Heat builds up, and the result is an Ice age. This is the normal rotation of the earth enviroment.
We have speeded the process, but it's going to happen anyway.
The only thing we can do, is to prepare our cities, and people for living in -40 to -80 celcius every single day....
WATCH THE FUCKING MOVIE!

@Siedlerdeo How about you read a FUCKING SCIENTIFIC PAPER on the subject? The "resulting ice age" that geologists talk about is tens of thousands of years away but the current trend is WARMING! Douche

@kubush Only duche here is you, fucking retard.
"Current trend is WARMING" Wow that sounds like something pulled out of your ass.
Not something coming from a formal study...
Fact of the matter is that nothing is certain, the next Ice age doesn't have a timer, and if you actually read a study you would know that all scientists say that it can happen at any time, no one has a fucking clue......
How the fuck could they? and again, fucking duche

While I'm not a huge Bill Maher fan simply because his mouth runneth over...I can honestly agree with him on this one issue and glad he's smart to agree with the Global warming stance. Kubush, exactly right! And if anyone has ever heard of Chemtrails...they'll know what you mean as well...if not...look it up...Geoengineers are in the process of seeding cloud to help with Global Warming...although I believe there are other issues in the skies above as well...to which I will not comment about here

Climate change
the science to climate change:
"...CO2 concentration has risen from about 280 ppm to around 370ppm today, CH$ has risen from about 700 ppb to1700 ppb and N2O has increased from about 270 ppb to over 310 ppb. Halo-carbons, largely nonexistent prior to the 1950's now present in amounts that have noticeable greenhouse effect."
".... ice cores show that the concentration of these gases are much higher than pre-industrial times and far exceed levels of the preceding 10,000 years."

From global geological evidence we can plainly see that PETM (Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum) was caused by highly elevated CO2 levels and the effects it had on life on earth including extinction of over 1/3 of species. Effectively humans are creating the same environment in a much shorter time frame.

@bigbadwolfy1977 There IS proof that global warming exists. Just open your damn eyes, seriously. No serious climate scientist denies that Global Warming is occurring. Why? Because ALL the data shows that it is warming! Denying the FACTS makes you like a religious person.

@TheSmittel Wrong. Denialism is similar to a RELIGION. Deny the FACT that the Earth is warming with all the data and evidence in front of your face, is just like a religion.

Sorry, but climate change has ALWAYS been happening since the earth was created, regardless of human effect. It is NOT man-made.

@murdock283 Your logic is faulty. Just because something hasn't happened in the past doesn't mean it isn't happening now. Humans weren't here since the beginning of Earth, nor has our industrialization.

@kubush And how do you explain a period of warming back during the Mesozoic age? There weren't any humans alive during the time. Did the dinosaurs spin donuts in their Hummers all day to cause it?

@murdock283 What makes you believe that ALL warming in the Earth's past would have to be due to humans, just because the current warming is?
kubush 1 month ago
@kubush He doesn't believe what you're saying. What he believes is that the earth has ALWAYS been heating and cooling from the varied effects of the SUN and MAN has only been around for a FRACTION of the time, then it is logical to conclude that man has nothing to do with global warming. (Which will be called Global Cooling when the poles re align again). I lost a lot of respect for Bill Maher after seeing this. Nice to know he can be paid off just like anyone else.
omnimous69 1 month ago
@omnimous69, just to make sure I'm hearing your point correctly. Your arguing that the majority of heating/cooling of the planet in the past was due to the sun and other environmental factors, that there is no way that Humans can have an impact on Global warming?
You go a step further to say that Bill Maher must have been paid off to say what he said, because you can't believe that he believes it? And yet he in line with the vast majority of scientists. your argument = fail.

@omnimous69 How exactly is that logical? Just because heating wasn't caused by humans in the past doesn't mean that the heating we are observing today isn't being caused by humans.

Yes, it has always been happening, but not by this speed! That's the whole thing. Climate change is happening way too fast for it to be natural! Very simple to understand. Not deniable. Not believing in global warming is like believing in God. You do it for the comfort, and that's stupid!

@JaroslavOfTheWorld You know, when you measure a change in something, like avarage temperature, the longer time you take in count, the more accurate result you get. The study you are referring too showed indeed some cooling in the USA over the last ten years, but that doesn't say anything, since the very same study shows that the worldwide avarage temperature have increased over the last 100 years.

@Anto0044 You believe in global warming for comfort so you can throw you chemically contaminated trash into a dumpster, so you can pee perscription drugs into the toilet that isn't being filtered, so you won't feel like a conspiracy theorist, so you won't look like you don't care about something the media says is important.

@MadeByEduNotLaziness Why so ignorant and judging? You think I throw my chemically contaminated trash into a dumpster? No, I separately collect my garbage, paper in one bag, plastic in another, and hazardous waste in the bin that sais hazardous waste. My toilet is of course filtered. Why would I let my pee go direclty into a lake? That sounds very irresponsible and dumb. The way you judge me make you look like a dumb angry conspiracy theorist.. oh, wich you are... I forgot.
Anto0044 2 weeks ago
@Anto0044 Are you really that dumb? Recycling causes a lot pollution. Hazardous waste goes somewhere you know. Your toilet isn't filtered the way you think it is. If you take any prescription drug and use a toilet it contaminates the water even if pretreated. You have no control where your pee goes after it's flushed. Study up on it, oh wait you just listen to all the words your liberal heros say as your Bible gospel and don't have time to verify it. Excuse me for reading up.
