@23peacefrog So all that happened 60-80+ years ago, how was it not human caused global warming back then, but it is now. Seems to me, that all of your dates just prove it happens all the time. I bet that weather back then was the worst in 60 years too. The earth obviously changes temp all the time, and to think that humans could kill the 4.5 billion year old earth in less than 200 years is just funny. The earth was a ball of ice at one time...Things change here.
@23peacefrog It doesn't matter to the deniers how many billion dollar disasters happen in a short period of time in line with climate predictions, the scientists and all the people experiencing disasters right now are all part of the conspiracy

Flooding is biggest climate risk to UK, report says

Flooding will be Britain's biggest climate risk this century, with damage set to cost as much as 12 billion pounds a year by the 2080s if nothing is done to adapt to extreme weather, a report said on Thursday.
CO2 one of the building blocks of a productive ecology.

@rugbyguy59 talk about getting old. i have asked you a million times for proof that human co2 is causing anything bad to happen....and u continue to fail, you haven't proved a thing you just keep saying co2 causes warming (of the climate), which is totally unproven & repeating it over & over doesn't make it so.
why was a submarine able to surface at the north pole, in open water, in the 1950s & now the north pole is all ice? why did they farm in greenland 100s of years ago but not now?
@BDBK666
I hear what you are saying about "going on all the time" and it is a good point as far as it goes
But this is ONE indicator of warming
Actually not many people are saying these events are THE proof of global warming
If these events are happening cos of GW then potentially we have much worse in store
We will not kill the earth(yeah, i know!)but it may become at lot harder to live here(sounds ok if you say it quick)

...Pakistan floods 2010(worst in 80 years)
US Tornado season 2011(deadliest since 1936)
Drought in Horn of Africa 2011(worst in 60 years)
Southern US/Mexico drought 2011(?worst on record)
Hurricane season of 2005(worst recorded)
If you want DIRECT linkage between these and human emitted co2 I don't believe that is even possible!!

"extreme weather"
What I said is that a warmer earth will
experience more extreme weather
There will always be extreme weather but the issue is how much
I can list some extreme weather events if you really want

@badvagirl
It was a simple enough question
How much more co2 does there have to be in the atmosphere b4 an increase in temp will be observed
You seem to be asserting that co2 does not have an effect on temp
Which is simply wrong
