Seal the Deal - Six powerful voices

Let's make 2009 the year the world finds an answer to climate change.
The numbers dont sound big, but their effects could be cataclysmic. A 2C rise above pre-industrial levels would see 20-40% of the Amazon die off within 100 years. A 3C rise would see 75% of the forest destroyed by drought over the following century, while a 4C rise would kill 85%. (Nature Geoscience).

However there is good news. The worst of global warming can still be avoided if Greenhouse gases levels are cut substantially.
Look at the inspiring figures here who have joined the Seal the Deal! campaign and given us their time, talent and energy to help make the world a better place.
We look forward to seeing your name here too.
The Seal the Deal campaign team!

Thanks for the tip!

You would think that after all the billions spent on seeking a definitive relationship between man - generated carbon and temperature change that one the study would be complete by now. Instead we get money spent on showing people expressing concerns that have no basis in scientific evidence. I ask the scientific community to publish evidence of the relationship, rather than bogus hockey sticks that are looking increasingly fraudulent by the day.

Watch: The manmade global warming hoax

The suns cycle heats and cools the earth. Hotter weather means more Co2 from plants and the sea. Co2 does NOT drive temperature. It's the other way around. The IPCC has been slated in hundreds of articles. 33,000 climatologists and scientists petition against manmade climate change is ignored by the controlled main stream media.

It's a scam to tax us to death.

It's not a hoax, polar bears are getting skinnier and can't always find food, there aere a lot of floods, tsunamis and earthquakes everywhere, and instead of being cold in the fall or winter some days are has hot as summer or spring, the lack of food, famine, drought, erosions. It's all chaos. Global warming and climate change are real, so is pollution, you cannot deny it. The air is not clean, not everyone has clean water. We need to reverse

[raunosavik]

ouu cmon, they just remind us that we all live together at this planet, dont be naive, we should all give our effort to less pollut earth.

[IClassStriker]

WTF?? How would the water levels go down???

[no1froggy]

if bullshit was steam then we could run all the power stations from the garbage coming out of the global warmists, the AGW arguement has got more holes in it than swiss cheese, but stinks a darn site worse.

Obviously, basic science tells us that melting sea ice will not change the levels of water -- however, melting ice caps and other large amounts of ice on land will melt with increasing temperatures, and that water will flow into the sea. Hence, a rising sea level.

What are your sources for this information? If both of those statements were taken from the same source, I would suggest looking elsewhere for something a little more credible.

[ChangeStPete]

Man made global warming is a HOAX, why don't you propagandist tell the people the truth that Ice displaces more area than water, and that if the ice caps would melt the sea levels would go DOWN not up. Climate Change is a natural process of the earth and is not an anabnormal thing, we are at the peak of the medieval warming cycle and about to head into global cooling not warming.

co2 feeds the plant life on earth( grade 6 science), so i would suggest planting more trees, quit cutting down our rainforests and do something about H2S and water pollution. Mt. St. Helens erupted in the 80's sending up more co2 than we could in a hundred years, God made this planet to handle such gases. So don't listen to these liberals whose only interest is getting rich

[stopglobalwarming08]

the video "Climate Denial Crock of the Week - The Great Petition Fraud" will put that joke "33,000 scientist petition" to shame

dont be fooled by the Right-Wing/Big Oil disinformation campaign

believe the UN, and the scientists

we must act now

[stuntcat666]

new energy could also save the world's economy.

any argument about why climate change would be a lie is totally lame now, sorry Earth-haters.

but you can still wave your man-flag for your species starting a mass-extinction, killing huge parts of the ocean, leveling ancient forests, blowing off old mountaintops for a few days of energy.. yeah, feel the pride.
