The global warming crowd does nothing but spread BUL###IT. The earth has experienced several changes on temperatures and sea levels over the last billion years. Check your history on this. This is a natural occurrence that can't be changed by man. Let's keep the air and water as clean as possible but we shouldn't allow the idiots to ruin our country 9n a farce.
Well, that's what they have been saying, that CO2 levels cause temperatures to rise, but when it didn't happen, they adjusted the temperature data to match their theory. They had to get the hockey stick graph somehow.It seems the deniers are equally responsible when it comes to ruining the country. When it comes to climate (as with most things), the truth lies somewhere between the stories spread by extremists on either side of the discussion. While man cannot prevent natural climate cycles, the data shows that carbon dioxide levels do correlate to temperature, and that they have risen sharply since the beginning of the industrial revolution.

A retired electrician?n the end, the data presented by thousands of climatologists who are convinced of these changes is more convincing than the misinterpretation of one retired electrician who maintains that all others are involved in massive conspiracy.
A retired electrician?
Yes, it is somewhat misleading, although he points out that life thrived when C02 was 10 times as high as it is now. C02 is nothing to fear is his point. I know a marijuana grower who pumps CO2 into his greenhouse for a higher yield. And fossil fuels have saved untold numbers of lives. Cold used to kill more people than heat. Turn the heater on or the air conditioner and save lives, but don't fear CO2.The Real Climate Science link provided is managed by Tony Heller--an ex-Electrical Engineer, if I remember correctly.
Out of curiosity, what do you make of his charts? It seems that life expectancy and death by natural disaster have both decreased as CO2 level have risen over the past century, while crop production has improved. He appears to be making the case that we are safer today now that CO2 levels are higher, and ignores the positive impacts of medicine, food supply, agriculture technology, etc. Do you believe this is misleading? Shall we assume that continued CO2 increases will improve rather than diminish our capacity to produce food, manage disease, etc simply because that has been the pattern for the past century during which so many other changes also account for improvement in that regard? He is certainly an outlier in the scientific community in making such claims, and what worries me most is that he is convinced that all others are engaged in some wild conspiracy, although he offers no reason to explain why they would do so.

Was it acid rain?Had a guy bring up climate change this weekend at an open house. We had a random rain a few days prior and he blamed in on climate change. Weirdo!
Did you know that going from 320ppm (parts per million) of CO2 which it was in 1900, to 420ppm is equivalent to adding two more people to Madison Square Garden. It hardly seems deadly to me.
Useful idiots all appear to be somewhat intelligent....and believe what they are told to believe......until they prove they are notI do not understand the Madison Square Garden analogy. The increase from 290 ppm in 1900 to 415 ppm today, percentage-wise, is over 40%. Imagine how we would feel if 40% more people applied for the next years tags. That is a significant increase, isn't it?
We're in a CO2 famine. 2:30 video
Same as if we actually landed on the moon....never know for sure, DC.Was it acid rain?
Don't try arguing with the left eel......they are too smart
I hear we might be headed back Wiz…….. wonder if Old Glory is still gonna be there, to welcome us back? I watched Neil Armstrong plant it, somewhere, on Black and White TV, back in 1969.Same as if we actually landed on the moon....never know for sure, DC.
Have you ever asked a geologist or meteorologist, that was hell bent, that we would run out of fossil fuels and the glaciers in Glacier Park would all be gone, by the year 2,000, “what happened”?
They have no shame, they have no explanation, no remorse, there is no embarrassment.
They simply have contempt that you asked.
You couldn’t change their mind if you had the truth carved in tablets of stone. You can only mitigate around them and keep moving forward, like we did with the geologists and meteorologists from the 1970’s. Imagine where the world would be if we had allowed those so called scientists to rule the day in 1975.
Of course 75% of the conservatives believe that the climate changes. I’m shocked that 99% of them don’t. But 75% conservatives believe humans contribute climate change…….. ?Science is neither left, nor right. And neither do liberals hold a monopoly on intelligence--despite the anti-intellectual position assumed by some on the right who do not speak for all of us. Many conservatives (3/4 of Americans) agree with the growing consensus that climate change is real; that humans contribute to climate change, and that climate change will harm future generations. That alone doesn't make them right, but neither does it make them liberal; nor should you feel defensive or run to your safe place when confronted with their ideas.
The corollary to this point is that not every conservative will agree with you on every issue--and in this environment, the wise cultivate political allies rather than seek to divide themselves. One way to do that is to avoid feeling butt-hurt over every disagreement one has with others.
When an imperfect vision starts to undermine and otherwise destroyer a civilization that I live and believe in, I’ll take the side against the heartfelt prediction…… every single time.For every overstated climate projection there is another that proved too low. In what aspect of our lives do we ever expect perfect vision? Which is worse, failing to predict the date that the ice melts or fuel runs out, or failing to predict these events entirely?
Of course 75% of the conservatives believe that the climate changes. I’m shocked that 99% of them don’t. But 75% conservatives believe humans contribute climate change…….. ?
I’d like to know where that data set comes from.
Humans affect local environments, air, water, soil, temperature. Global climate…….. BS, total BS.
Refusing to act because you are uncertain about the date that the fuel runs out does not mean that it won't still run out. Your civilization will change whether or not you agree.When an imperfect vision starts to undermine and otherwise destroyer a civilization that I live and believe in, I’ll take the side against the heartfelt prediction…… every single time.
Have you ever noticed how, “facts” almost always change.Refusing to act because you are uncertain about the date that the fuel runs out does not mean that it won't still run out. Your civilization will change with or without your interest.
In any event, I am not here to advocate for action of any sort-that is a political decision that you will make for yourself. I am simply here to clarify the science where the facts may be misconstrued.

Hell, bullskin, there could come a time when we’ll learn we’ve been wrong about gravity, for the last 300 some years.
Also, you were speaking of conservatives, then added 75% Americans in parentheses. My mistake, I assumed you meant American conservatives, so you slipped that one by me, but you should know I’m dyslexic….. so that will happen on a regular bases. It’s usually a mortal sin to combine conservatives with the morally superior liberals, so it threw me off.
My own fault cuz I started with the philosophical words but I don’t have time to chase your or my own tail around a morality tree endlessly.Although the facts themselves do not change, our interpretations certainly do as we accumulate more and better information. If not Einstein, then who would have predicted gravitational waves? And we still don't understand the expansion of the universe, so you are undoubtedly correct about that.
Nevertheless, we all make hundreds of decisions every day based on imperfect information. All the more reason to recognize and eliminate inaccurate or misleading information where it persists.
I consider myself conservative, but (as a side-note) you got my attention with your comment regarding the moral superiority of liberals v. conservatives. If you had asked me, I would have said that conservatives identify as morally superior more so than liberals. Do you disagree? Or do they simply disagree over which behaviors are "moral"?

On June 30, 1989, the Associated Press squeezed decimation into a tight, 11-year window, with an ominous article, “Rising Seas Could Obliterate Nations,” containing a jaw-dropping opener: “A senior UN environmental official (Noel Brown) says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000.”

PGE sent an email out yesterday saying today was energy saving day or some sh!t like that. I have everything turned on hoping the grid fails.It got up to 78 here today. The hottest day of the year. Makes me wish I had bought an electric car.

For example if the Knicks sold out a game with the Celtics and carbon was to represent Celtics fans there would be a grand total of six Celtic fans at the game in 1900 and now there would be 8 Celtic fans at the game.I do not understand the Madison Square Garden analogy.
I was up hunting in northeastern California the past couple of days and it was 11 degrees in camp yesterday morning.
Neighbor's wife home alone??14 at my neighbors house.
Not any more...Neighbor's wife home alone??
-1 Monday and Tuesday morning. It has warmed up a bit.
It must be global warming Bess. I haven’t even been able to go ice fishing yet.What?
Up To +1?
How cold does it have to get to before your water freezes down there?52 here now.....brrrrrr
uh....we have exposed pipes in the attic.....How cold does it have to get to before your water freezes down there?
Lucky!uh....we have exposed pipes in the attic.....
If you have exposed pipes, it’s always good to have them handy like that…….so far......lol
Yes, and it’s way easier to find the leak when the sheetrock gets soaked and the ceiling crashes in. Saves ALOT of $$$ on them high-dollar plumbers when they don’t have to do the demo.If you have exposed pipes, it’s always good to have them handy like that…….
