Are you fed up with having this climate change propoganda rammed down your throat?
So Antarctica's melting. Big deal. It does in summer.
Answer:
Yes I am fed up with this rubbish about global warming. The Earth is approximately 4 billion years old. To based the climatic changes based on the last 250 years as a paradigm for the last 4 billion is sheer idiocy.
The major aspect that the tree highers use to substantiate global warming is the melting of the polar ice caps. The world has experience three episodes of polar glaciation. - only three. The last one which took place during the Pleistocene Epoch had Continental ice sheets that covered all of Canada and extended southward to Indiana, Illinois Iowa and other states in the Midwest. It is not there anymore. Hence it retreated (melted) back to what is now called the polar regions. Yes, the ice caps are melting, So what? They have been doing it for thousands of years, long before man ever walked the Eartth.
Al Gore has excited millions of un-knowing hysteriacs and in doing so has become the very successful Elmer Gantry of his age.
your a moron
spot on mate
lovin the long summers and the heatwaves
forget 30 turn to 60
yes they are trying to start the brainwashing process now. by the time our grandchildren are grown ups they won't know the truth anymore.
yes I am especially when their biggest spokesman is flying around on private jets and crap.
I agree with you. Some( most) people will believe anything.
Yes!
I don't know. On July 4th it snowed in here Boston and last 'winter' I got sunburned.
Variations in earth's temperature are real. The idea that we caused it and can do something about it is not fact. The media makes big money by promoting our fearfulness. A consensus of scientists believe that this matter is man made—science is not determined by consensus nor by computer models..
Blue H that would be "you're (or you are) a moron"..
No I am not fed. It's important. You are one of those awful selfish people that think why should I make a effort I'll just let everyone else sort it out.
You are ignorant.
It is however crazy that the likes of Madonna who drive cars with massive engines should be pointing out to us that we need to make changes.
No. I think climate change is real and very scary indeed. It´s obvious that burning fossil fuels will release carbon dioxide and further more the consequences are already becoming apparent - flooding and temperature records continually being broken.
In deed i am. Far too much propoganda and scare mongering going on about everything: Obesity, colesterol, size zero, now its eggs, we'r only allowed 2 per week, how bizarre!!
I don't know where you live but Antarctica is melting. It means over night the conveyor is coming to a grind and will switch. Inthe North Atlantic no one knows when but it's going to happen. Not stupid media stuff. Scientific. It is going to switches and we have the weather of Canada in the UK. Already people in the far east don't get their rice crops. In the North of England we had tropical style rain-for a short while, but strange.
The coverage on TV is crap. I guess, because I don't actually own a TV.
They tell you do this and that when the clock has been ticking for a while and it's not what you and me should do or how much more tax they can extract from us. They should think of what solutions and actions we can take, but instead they tell us what to do when it's to late already. Move to a place that is becoming better, that's my advice :-) Things are getting hotter and then we'll have the glaciation.
The climeate has been changing since the beginning of time,
so what?
No I'm not fed up of hearing about climate change. It is something of vital importance that we cannot afford to be wrong on.
i'm sick of it too. that and the spokes people for climate change aren't doing anything in their personal lives to stop it. they burn tons od electricity, they have non-fuel efficiant cars, they are damaging our climate too, worse than the average joe and THEY'RE trying to tell US we need to change? HA! my father has a friend who studies the ozone and says that it's acutall been GROWING since 2002! i'm sick of all the stars saying this stuff. they need to do they're jobs and leave the rest of us alone!
You know, they report everything as fact, not just this climate control thing. I remember growing up and going to school and learning about science. They preached EVERYTHING as fact. It was only later, when I was no longer under these liberal teachers influence, that I found out how they really know nothing! Not much, anyway. Our Earth is so resilient, we really have no idea. We do need to change our ways and live a much more natural life, I believe. Just ignore all this hype. It all has to do with politics and the upcoming elections. Do your part and know what's right for you and your surroundings. I'm sure you do a much better job than any one of those idiots up in Capitol Hill.
Just ignore it. ~
if it is global warming why do the yanks keep sending the space shuttle up and politicians keep flying all over the world surely they can communicate by e mail and why do they have gas guzzling cars that we pay for
It is'nt propaganda, it's fact, and as usual, we are realising way too late, and still doing too little to slow it down, the American government are doing very little, and china are doing nothing!
I don't mind too much, as I do believe that global warming is a major problem, and we can all do our bit to help.
What does bother me though is the fact that while I get told to change my behaviour to have less of an impact on the environment, and I make a real effort to do so, governments and big business (the ones who can make the biggest difference) don't seem to want to bother, unless it's in their interests to do so (ie it wins votes or is profitable). This strikes me as a tad hypocritical on their part, like they're passing the buck.
climate change is a natural Phenomona, We are still coming out of the ice age, and I don't believe that gas guzzlers had anything to do with that! The biggest threat to the planet is over population, science has interfered with natural selection, the survival of the fittest, unpalatable but true!
no antarctica does not exactly feel the effects of summer as greatly as we do
its at the southern most part of the earth
duh
and no it is NOT propaganda
yeah
everybody says that something must change but nobody does something about it so that's why it still theories because there are a lot plans
Why should people listen to you when there are literally hundreds of world class scientists who have shown that the Earth is warming, and that humans do have a role. If you have some solid evidence to refute their claims I'm sure they would like to hear from you.
And worse yet, they probably won't call back the next day...
I'm fed up of it all too.. I think the best solution is for us all to turn the TV off, saving power, reducing emissions and maybe getting back to family and conversation at a base level where we all understand one another again.
I think it's the greatest hoax of the year, excuse me I have to go outside and make my cows fart.
I think Simon La Bon's hair styling products in the early 80's did more harm to the planet then me burning tyre warehouses any day!
The link below takes you to a graph of ice core data collected in Antarctica. Three things are plainly clear.
1. There is a very defined cycle of temperature changes occurring about every 100k years or so. We are currently at or near the peak of one of these regular cycles, which incidentally, does not seem to be as warm as in past cycles.
2. The CO2 levels seem to have followed right along with the temperatures and at two points in history have been higher than they are now.
3. The current CO2 levels are indeed higher than all but two other points in history, however the temperature seems to be in a downward trend over the last 25k years.
