What say you?

I personally contribute tons of methane to the atmosphere annually.

The Americorps are watching..it's Climate Change!

Man-made global warming is a hoax. How and why do I say that? "Official government measurements show that the world’s temperature has cooled since reaching a peak in 1998." The rest of the article, dated this Saturday, that contains that statement is located here:

We can hardly predict the weather more than about 10 days out, and these people tell us they know the world will be warmer a few decades from now? Please.

The perplexing thing for the clear thinkers among is why do liberals, and that's the only people we're talking about here, have it as their sacred mission in life to alter the way we use energy? Roller-skate size cars, taxes on carbon, no nuclear power, etc., etc. But, that's who those people are and all I can say is they have to be defeated.

The science of climate change is not like predicting weather 10 days out.

It is an emerging religion.

kennedy's Tumor caused ALL Climate Change..

"The science of climate change is not like predicting weather 10 days out."

Oh, it's EASIER I guess to predict global temperatures 30 years from now than to predict a local temp. 10 days from now, eh? Please.

I never said long-term forecasts were calculated by the same models that we use for near-term weather forecasts. But, we are able to verify the accuracy of short-term models and thus have been able to fine tune them to the point that we can trust their accuracy. The problem with ANY long-term model is that you have to wait decades to see how well it works. What we DO know is that temperatures are BELOW 1998 levels. Why, then, should alter our way of life based on totally unproven "climate change" religion?

Way to completely miss the point.

"Hur hur da earth is getting colder, how can climate change be happening?"

Ugh.

Big surprise the US's science and math education ranks behind such luminous countries as the freakin' Czech Republic.

Global Warming made Al Gore or Algore whichever you prefer millions and gave the pompus ass something to work for.............the new term is Climate Change I believe and more acceptable to the left and the Michael MOOres of the world.

at least the Polar bears are doing well and I am happy for that.

GREAT scientifically based and powerful reply haon! Guess that proves global warming.

And by the way, no one is saying the climate isn't changing. It ALWAYS is, and the sun is the main factor in that, not the exhaust coming out of my car.

Al Gore hates you for that statement.............

"global warming"/"climate change"/"think green" is a tremendous money making engine worldwide right now. Regardless of whether you believe man has caused it or it even exists, embrace the gravytrain.

The first way you know that a person has no idea what they are talking about with respect to greenhouse gas emission is when they refer to "Global Warming".

I have no desire to educate someone who won't listen to empirical evidence because of political persuasion.

Which is why you get made fun of instead of getting an actual response.

But hanon your responses are truly priceless, George Goebel could not do better......maybe Paul Lynde might, but you are the master of word twisting.

It is happeneing, but am not sold it's done by humans.

Well aren't you just the resident scientific genius here! Go ahead and tell us your credentials then.

Yes, EVERYONE who has ever used the term "Global Warming" has no idea what they are talking about...very astute catch on your part.

Empirical evidence is ALL I'm interested in when it comes to this topic, so fire away.

Wow, you really made fun of me...I'm still reeling from that last one.

Without Ted's head blowing carbon dioxide into the ozone we'll prolly be able to reverse the effects next week!

13: Not even in the ballpark of those who make money off of not having to control their pollution.

You're a riot Robert.

Oh, wait, and later in the article that YOU linked:

"A decade of level or slightly lower temperatures is only a temporary dip to be expected as a result of natural, short-term variations in the enormously complex climate system.

"The preponderance of evidence is that global warming will resume," Nicholas Bond, a meteorologist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory in Seattle, said in an e-mail."

Sound to me like you are really interested in the empirical facts to me. And on the scale of trustworthiness about the issue, the NOAA scientist is about a 7. You are about a -1.

"We can hardly predict the weather more than about 10 days out, and these people tell us they know the world will be warmer a few decades from now? Please. "

Then you proceed to attempt to conflate weather with climate.
