The earth will react by species dying, waters raising, temperatures increase, crops and plants withering, and in the end people dying. So why are you saying this is an alright event that happens?

[wizardoflawz]

sticking your head "in the sand" was a much too positive assessment. Up your ass is the proper diagnosis. Congratulations for helping to utterly destroy the planet. i hope the few pennies you get for posting disinformation are worth it to you.

Bill Nye is a giant sellout, like most scientists.  It's all about who is paying the bills.

This has already happened, several times over...

Ok. I know what we must do, I declare a war on ice.

Harping about consensus is not helping you since a consensus has no part in science, so yes I will keep dismissing your pointless point. I don't see how not bowing down to consensus makes me a creationist? You obviously have faulty logic. What will it take for you to be convinced that CAGW has been exagerated?

[Brian Wright]

I said nothing factual? How about all those numbers I threw at you saying there is a consensus that you keep ignoring and dismissing? And that's only one survey, there's plenty of others confirming the scientific consensus. And AGW has not been proven wrong, if anything its confirmed time after time (see the BEST project by skeptic Richard Muller, if you want evidence from one of your own). And there is a good reason I associate you with creationists: you deny scientific consensus and evidence.

Think about it as the earth being a living organism, our pollution and lack of responsible resource use has driven the earth to treat us as if we were a cancer. Just like our immune system, the earth is fighting off "infection" in a sense. Lets start making a change people!

[MrCoffeeFiend]

You have said nothing factual and now you have moved to the next level of activist attack propaganda which is to start associating me with creationists for no reason. You then follow this by claiming I am a liar and then try to bring more wieght to your side by upping the number to thousands. A theory only needs to be proven wrong once to be wrong.

[Brian Wright]

So I've proven your point in full because I said "you're sticking your head in the sand"? Because of language I used, not anything factual I said? That is beyond pathetic. There is a consensus, and you are in denial about it. I've already shown you why. And no, there are not hundreds of peer reviewed articles that dispute Global Warming. In any case, there are well over TEN thousand PR articles acknowledging AGW. Also you never answered my question, do you deny Evolution too?

[MrCoffeeFiend]

You have just proven my point in full. there is not a consensus, that is an activist statment. Sticking head in sand is a common activist statement. There are literally hundreds of peer reviewed scientific papers that do not support the CAGW claims. I fully understand what positive feedback is. Alarmists such as yourself don't understand that the positive feedbacks are programed into the climate models & have been shown to be in error on many different feedbacks. Real world data trumps computers
