Living with climate change

Global warming is happening. Temperatures have already risen by 0.76 degrees since the industrial revolution and are projected to rise further by 1.8 - 4 degrees by the end of the century. The last time climate change happened at this pace was 125,000 years ago and led to a 4-6 metre sea level rise.

Global warming at the upper end of the scale predicted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change would have catastrophic consequences for Europe. Up to 30% of plant, animal and bird species would be wiped out and the threat of natural disasters such as landslides, floods and mudslides would increase significantly.

perfecktblue, you're a sick and confused denialist.

Lets boycott Exxonmobil for all these hoaxes and lies.

@nlpjohn While the Medieval Warm Period saw unusually warm temperatures in some regions, globally the planet was cooler than current conditions. This has been confirmed by the National Academy of Sciences Report on Climate Reconstructions.

Do you mean the climategate scientist who were cleared of any wrongdoing by 5 independent reviews an investigations- i'm guessing you weren't up to date.

Climate reacts to whatever forces it to change at the time; humans are now the dominant forcing.

Yes, global warming is happening. Afterall we just left the "little Ice Age" around 1800. So of course the world is warming. But the problem for alarmists is there was the Medieval Warming Period (MWP) where temps were HIGHER than today while having lower CO2 levels. Modern warming is well within natural variations and no one else has been able to disprove this. My favorite line in the climategate emails was the line that they had to get rid of the MWP. :)

The whole man made climate change theory is designed to appeal to fear not nessessarily logic or insight. Ask yourself, is it possible that the tv maybe just maybe might be lying to me?

That's ironic because people fly there to see snow, but by flying, their carbon footprint SOARS and produces a lot of carbon dioxide, causing warming and melting snow.

I don't doubt an ice age occurs every few million years but I remember Al Gore saying with global warming the oceans will rise. If this is true then why has he bought a house with ocean fron property??

And you have to keep posting this bullshit over and over again to get paid.

we have to offer up scary scenarios,

make simplified, dramatic statements

and make little mention of any doubts...

Each of us has to decide what the right balance

is between being effective and being honest."

@madvigadam Rare places.... like east Antarctica, 3/4 of the entire continent you mean.
