In the same lines, why are you so eager to deny the (maybe partial) human involvement?

to bankrupt those whose psuedo-science depends on funding. This would be geared mostly towards political activists behind the man-made global warming idea that are trying to slow the 'machinery of evil enterprise'. And to tell newbie socialists (and the old communist guard) that historical climate revisionism is wrong.

Acid rain-- we did that
Ozone layer hole-- we did that.

Obviously mankind's activity has an impact on the atmosphere. Why is it so hard to accept that distrupting the balance of greenhouse gases with massive amounts of hydrocarbons will also have a negative effect?

Re: "An Inconvenient Truth" banned in schools

Why are so many people so eager to acknowledge that the earth is warmer, but they'll deny that the sun is and has been hotter than usual for the past 15 years or so? Why no acknowledgement of the increase sun activity? Because to admit that would be to admit that this may be the reason for what we call global warming.

Do you mean something like this:

The truth about global warming - it's the Sun that's to blame
By Michael Leidig and Roya Nikkhah

Global warming has finally been explained: the Earth is getting hotter because the Sun is burning more brightly than at any time during the past 1,000 years, according to new research.
A study by Swiss and German scientists suggests that increasing radiation from the sun is responsible for recent global climate changes.

Dr Sami Solanki, the director of the renowned Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Gottingen, Germany, who led the research, said: "The Sun has been at its strongest over the past 60 years and may now be affecting global temperatures.

"The Sun is in a changed state. It is brighter than it was a few hundred years ago and this brightening started relatively recently - in the last 100 to 150 years."

Dr Solanki said that the brighter Sun and higher levels of "greenhouse gases", such as carbon dioxide, both contributed to the change in the Earth's temperature but it was impossible to say which had the greater impact.

So even your own sources for this sun theory agree greenhouse gases are playing a role. Now I'm not a scientist, but it seems to me that if we agree higher temps/rising sea levels is a bad thing, shouldn't we focus on the part of the cause that we have some control over? I don't know of a way to control the temp of the sun, but I'm pretty sure we do have the means to limit how much poison we dump into the sky.

still in denial
tell me one thing
who wins if people reduces oil consumption ?
who wins if we save electricity?

i mean... see any political or economical goal on this?

Re: "An Inconvenient Truth" banned in schools

No one wins.

In 1857 the world thought whale blubber was gonna run out and people wouldn't have oil to light lanterns.

People wanted light. So they figured out a way to generate it without whale blubber. Now you might say it was luck we found oil in the ground. Maybe. But I say people will find ways to get the things they want and need. So if, oil is running out or us burning it is causing harm to the environment, when people figure this out for themselves and see the need to move on they will.

Re: "An Inconvenient Truth" banned in schools

we got oil for decades and decades. that is stupid gullible issue as well. last year at some time there was a release that we have truly not even tapped into the oil fields. and actually a lot more out there. Once again a scare tactic. Believe what you will, but I ain't no sucker. Sure cars are bad, they stink, they break down, etc. If you also look at the car industry, cars are more environmentally safe. They have emissions they need to follow, DEQ to pass. etc. so pick your battle. You will not win this one. It is a loosing battle.

Does anyone remember Earth day? That started a couple decades ago. It was actually a pretty large event. I remember in school that is all that was taught and educated.

This global warming BS is no different in sayting that power is bad. Great. Happy to hear that. As of right now we have no options. People need power, our world needs power. People will use power. Get my drift? It is a lost battle. You can freak out all you want, this and that, over here over there. Have fun. I am going to go burn tires in my backyard.

DOM.

you are out of your mind. sorry.

dude, two weeks ago, here in NY, is was 62 degrees in JANUARY. it isnt hard to see, the impact of glabal warming is right in front of us. glaciers are shrinking faster than ever. the polar ice caps are losing acres a day. temps are 3-5 degrees above normal. wildlife in the furthest points north and south is dying.

glabal warming is indeed real, and while killing each other doesnt harm the planet, a lot of the stuff we do is. i still cannot fathom how people so handidly disregard scientific evidence that we are not only harming the earth, but doing it at an exponentially faster rate over the last half decade.

this shouldnt even bring politics or economics into play. frankly, the responsibility to maintain a healhty atmosphere and ecolological life should be above all.

and you damn well know im not a tree hugging liberal whino cunt. but comon.
