Fox was pretty quite on global warming this year....considering we haven't got a freakin inch of snow!!

[jokerdork]

Climate change is real, Global Warming is what is being debated. WE HAVE NO SPECIFIC EVIDENCE THAT THE HUMANS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY MADE AN IMPACT ON CLIMATE CHANGE. This is ridiculous, but at the same time... ya, Fox News is cray-cray. Notice how they say that Global Warming is Individually Reviewed? Only Peer-Reviewed articles are legitimate in ANY Scientific Theory. Don't believe these chumps.

@jokerdork finally the troposphere is expanding because of the added gas. this is significant because it proves that the warmth comes from the added greenhouse gasses and not the sun. further proof that it is not the sun is the solar irradiance chart which has actually dropped in activity since I think the 80's. in short we know its us but the opposition like the koch brothers have really good publicity.

@jokerdork also climate predictions in computer models dont work without human co2

[twizelby]

@jokerdork A carbon molecule that comes from fossil fuels and deforestation is “lighter” than the combined signal of those from other sources. As scientists measure the “weight” of carbon in the atmosphere over time they see a clear increase in the lighter molecules from fossil fuel and deforestation sources that correspond closely to the known trend in emissions.

I think Global Warming is caused by the amount of toxic exhaust coming from the people on Fox News.

[LastBref]

There are plenty of peer-reviewed articles by the most respected climatologists in the world which conclude that humans are contributing to global warming. Please research a topic before commenting on it.

@jokerdork And this coming from a LEFT-WING perspective. I don't watch Fox, it's a piece of shit lol. But don't believe everything u hear!

[ShadeIsaac]

You can't say that there will be an ice age or that it's freezing. Look at the f*cking ice masses in Greenland, in Arctis and every major glacier.

And here in Europe, we will get it colder! Because of the golfstream we have a mild climate. But with globalwarming, that stream can disappear and, then it's hello freezing!

ARE THEY seriously that retarded... Or just blind with the cash they are being paid. We exhale C02 lolol its not harmless lololollll. Yeah well those trees that are getting cut down a football field/second, are suppose to turn that C02 into oxygen... I hate fox news, I would love for everyone to get some common sense and watch something a little less ridiculous. Hilarious how they're not talking so tough now, when I only for 3 inches of snow instead of 3 feet this year...and -3 instead of -33.

@bmwz3m1 is that sarcasm...?
