The global warming, how and why it began?

Global warming - republicans?

  • Is it just a coincidence that the earth began to signifigantly warm just as the industrial revolution began? Even Bush put the polar bear on the endangered species list due to the melting ice. The earth is in temperature cycles that last thousands of years. We are nowhere near the end of our current climate stage, yet republicans claim that this is natural. This is the first time in history that the temperature cycle has changed. It should be a few thosand more years until the earth starts warming. Global warming is not natural! open your eyes, this warming trend is unlike any other. 90% of glaciers are shrinking. Fun Fact - Number of wildlife preserves clinton opened - 203 Number of wildlife preserves bush opened - 2 Is a ford expedition really neccesary republicans? I sure see alot of you driving them. For those who ask - I rarely drive - I take the train and ride my bike. My house is 100% powered by wind. I know how to conserve unlike many republicans

  • Answer:

    I see this one brings out all the rabid anti-environmental knee jerks. I am really sick of all the half baked arm chair experts that show up on these internet sites who claim to know what they are talking about yet all they do is pick someone elses views and argue for them dogmaticly. Have any of you ever done any real research, as in in a lab, with real equipment, with real money riding on it and on doing the tests correctly and objectively so as not to ruin your credibility in your field? Here's something for all of you. Making this a political or partisan issue makes me want to smack the lot of you upside your head. It obviously wouldn't hurt anything. This is an issue that has to stand on it's own merits scientifically and politics should be kept out of it because whether it is right or wrong affects us all. Environmental issues and the potential damage involved is the single biggest threat to the stability of nations and thus the dubious world peace as well as the basic strategic and economic stability of all nations of the world and thus the jobs, living conditions and well being of every single human being. I am tired of the distortions on both sides of the fence. Oh, and for the record I too am ex military and I am for environmental caution, unlike so many who seem to be dead head lifers who cannot think past what is in it for them. I think their lifer juice (coffee) caused colon cancer has rotted their brains. I am also a republican but I am a moderate to liberal republican who believes in common sense and reality rather than the foolishness of people who are stupid enough to listen that fat mouth organ Rush Limpdick. Volcanoes, the sun, tilt of the axis, climate cycles, claims of lack of long term records, etc., etc. Wonk Wonk Wonk. Guess what kids, these things are all already accounted for in the real research if any of you idiots had enough education and intelligence to be able to read them. I realize we cannot all have access to crays and large scale climate models but at least take the time to research what you are saying before you open your beer swilling mouth and prove what an idiot you are. What is a provable reality today is exactly what my research in the lab predicted 20 years ago and was presented to several conferences and agencies and the same talking head spin doctoring morons brushed it aside then as they are trying to do now. Here is a nice easy one for you. Check out the book "the little ice age" from the library. There is a very simple chart that shows side by side curves for the use of coal since the middle ages and the rise of CO2. They are almost identical. Here is another one for you. According to the American Petroleum Institute, 1/3 of the current price of fuel in America is purely caused by the extra demand cause by people who *needlessly* drive large vehicles. Mindless consumerism and laziness is the biggest problem in American and it is directly behind most of our environmental as well as economic woes. By the way, that large piece of trash that you drive that cost more than some houses? It's actually less safe than a normal car so don't spout the BS that you need it as a family vehicle. That is why they have vans and wagons. Check national crash statistics, even those adjusted by miles driven and vehicle size. It's a coffin on wheels that drives up gas prices and is a pain in the neck for everyone else on the road. It wouldn't even exist if it were not for special loopholes in the safety and other specifications that other vehicles have to adhere to. It is nothing more than a huge scam to appeal to you shallow vanity and delusional perception of your importance in the world. SUV is actually a marketing term that means Stupid, Useless, Victim as in Victim of Media hype and brainwashing. Also known as more money than common sense. As a so called patriot, how is it that you can justify wasting fuel and being a direct part of a system which endangers so many american lives and undercuts our economy just to serve the special interests of big oil companies? Ever hear of the balance of trade? Well you and people very much like you are the biggest cause for the imbalance. Even GW has stated that dependence on foreign oil is one of the biggest threats to our national security and economy. You probably buy stuff made over seas as well, helping put more americans out of work while sending your money and their jobs to foreign lands with lower standards for how things are made and how they treat the people that work for them. Mindless pawns of consumer culture slaving away to make more profit for your big money masters. All you do is serve the elite top money people who profit no matter what country a job or factory is in or what political party you think you are serving. You mindlessly go along as long as the price is cheap and you can continue your wasteful and shallow lifestyle and keep chasing the lie called the American Dream. Funny how so many of you have the nerve to call yourself Christians as well.

the earth is warming, but come up with fact that it is the human races fault, give me so stats please too show this, because it might just be natural, and wow imagine that the world is always changing

how come you don't mention the two things that have happened in the past 27 years that most likely affected the weather patterns and maybe even the magnetic field of the planet which could possibly be causing a lot of what's going on now--mt. saint helens, when it erupted it blew out against the earth's rotation and caused a 1 degree wobble in our planet. the 9.2-9.4 quake that caused the indonesian tsunami also caused a 1 degree wobble and altered the weather patterns worldwide. in regard to the comment about wildlife preserves--clinton did most of that for political paybacks as some are so small they make no difference, or they were used to protect his rich backers property values. and for your last statement- good for you, but apparently you do not live in a city.

No. Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XttV2C6B8pU Better quality of the same video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6Wr1hcIp2U Global warming is a joke. All of the planets have global warming right now. Most global warming theorists have never heard of the term "solar variability". Solar variability caused the earth to leave the ice age in less than 20 years, and it caused the earth to have a little ice age several hundred years ago. NASA: "Rapid changes between ice ages and warm periods (called interglacials) are recorded in the Greenland ice sheet. Occurring over ONE OR TWO DECADES, the warming of the Earth at the end of the last ice age happened much faster than the rate of change of the Earth’s orbit." NASA link: http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Study/Paleoclimatology_Evidence/Images/gisp2_temperature.gif NASA data has proved that the "Little Ice Age" was caused by less light reaching the earth ("solar variability", which means changes in the sun). NASA's data about the little ice age. http://tinyurl.com/227h3p or (This data can be copied and pasted it into Excel to chart it.) Other facts: 1) 6,000 years ago, the earth was hotter than it is today. 6,000 years is less than a second when compared with the age of the earth. 2) Temperatures dropped in the 1950's and 1990's when CO2 levels were increasing. 3) 140,000 years ago the earth had record CO2 levels and there were no gasoline powered cars. 4) 20,000 years ago, Canada was one big ice cube and half of the U.S. was covered with Ice. The grand canyon was formed by melting ice ages over 20 million years. 5) The temperature of the Earth has only increased by 0.65 of a degree in the last 110 years. There were faster increases in temperatures around 10,000 years ago and there were no gasoline powered cars during that time 6) NASA scientific data has shown most of the changes of temperature are due to changes in the Sun. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto all have global warming right now 7) Also, strong hurricanes are normal. Hundreds of years ago, they used to sink ships off of the coast of Florida. 8) THIS GLACIER DIDN'T EXIST 7,000 YEARS ago. And that was after the Ice Age.

It would be if it were TRUE. Most of the warming in th last 100 years happened BEFORE the industrial revolution. The earth was actually COOLING for most of the last half of the 20th century. The link below is a 75 min BBC documentary by scientists that claim 'man-made' global worming is a LIE. One of them threatened to SUE the IPCC for listing him as a contributor to their recent 'report'.

Republicans must place protection of environment as a priority program in their platform for the benefit of mankind particularly in the future.

FRAGINAL, JTM

You should trust your government to make rational decisions like Global Warming, because Americans are too stupid to solve these problems themselves. How dare you support a free market that gives you alternative sources for transportation, energy, and many other things that make your life easier. You should go to your government and give them all your money and force anyone that believes in such trash like gasoline, suvs, and big houses. Now open your wallet and give me your money because without me you will DIE from global warming.

Republicans are profiteers, pirates, greedy SOB's. You'll notice that there never wrong and they always try to lie out of every crevice that their rat selves fall into. When was the last time you heard anything truthful from a republican? They think they are all mighty powerful and Godlike creatures, of course you and I know that it's only their vaneness and ego that hold them together. Take their toys away (Fords, etc.) and they wouldn't know where to turn..

Hmm...your arrogance is unimpressive. Yes, the Ford Expedition is really necessary. And Democrats sometimes drive them too. If one has a large family, it is necessary to have a large vehicle. And most people can't afford to buy windmills. If you want to buy me some, I'd be thrilled. By the way, I walk to work, and take public transportation when possible. Typically, I drive once a week, to buy things that I can't get locally. However, I'm also not so arrogant to believe that everyone can live the same life I do. I've lived in places where the distances are in the hundreds of miles from the nearest jobs, and where one has to drive kids to school 40 miles away. So, take your self-indulgent garbage and stick it in your hat. You have no moral authority over the world. By the way, if your goal is to undo the industrial revolution, you ought to go live without all the benefits it brings. Yes, there are some negatives, but people aren't starving in the streets and dying of pestilence on a daily basis in industrialized countries. You don't think that's a fair trade? Go ask people anywhere that still deal with starvation and disease, and see if they'd rather live in the "polluted" industrialized world or in the natural, unindustrialized world. I've lived in both, and believe me, it's nice to have medical care and food and the things that come with industrialization. Clearly, you can't see beyond your romanticization of idyllic society. Life was difficult before industrialization. A level of difficult that you clearly cannot understand. You need some perspective.

Where to begin... Scientists don't know for sure if global warming is being caused by industry. How do you know for sure that we are a few thousand years off on our "temperature cycle"? How do you know that every person who drives a Ford Expedition is a republican? And also, not everyone lives in an environment where they can power their house entirely by wind.
