As I've said many times before.  THERE IS NO GLOBAL WARMING AT ALL.  man made or not.  1998 was the warmest year lately and it wasn't as warm as the 30's.  


www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/11/25/nbook125.xml


On the one hand we have the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change coming up with yet another of its notoriously politicised reports, hyping up the scare by claiming that world surface temperatures have been higher in 11 of the past 12 years (1995-2006) than ever previously recorded.

This carefully ignores the latest US satellite figures showing temperatures having fallen since 1998, declining in 2007 to a 1983 level - not to mention the newly revised figures for US surface temperatures showing that the 1930s had four of the 10 warmest years of the past century, with the hottest year of all being not 1998, as was previously claimed, but 1934.

"Global warming," as I suspect you know, is shorthand for "the purported anthropogenic global warning underlying the left's current campaign against the American way of life."

Unless those evil Clovis bastards had really tall smokestacks.  

I have a fluted Clovis point, BTW.  I have been told it's fairly valuable for a piece of rock.

Why did the ice age end?  What was the mechanism?  Why did it start to begin with and the mechanism for that?  Is the pattern still continuing?  How warm will it get between glacial extremes?

These are the real questions that must be answered FIRST before we can say what man has caused much less what we can change to do about it.

I don't even know how to respond to this thread.

It kind of reminds me of an article I read in the times a few years back when the Chechen's were raging war with the Russians. A Chechen woman's apt. building got slammed by a 105mm howitzer round. She was still living there after half the complex was gone, leaving a giant hole in her living room. She said to the reporter..what hole?

another example. there was a board recently of 200 scientists discussing global warming and the drastic climate change. 198 out of 200 scientists agreed global warming is indeed real and will cause catastrophic unforeseen consequences in the near future. Two of the scientists said theres no such thing as global warming. So that MUST mean theres no global warming.

More and more information ( such as the fact that the Antarctic ice sheet is at record levels) indicates that global warming as put forth by the likes of ALGORE using corrupt data ( like the incorrect yearly temp data mentioned earlier) is not just false, but likely just a politicized movement to attack the US. It is part of the leftist mantra that "most" scientists support the global warming bs when many do not.

Is global warming real?  
The best evidence we have says yes.  We are coming out of an ice age, possibly due to the fact the sun's out put has increased.  This causing warming on not just our planet but Mars as well.

Is man causing it?
No.  There is next to no evidence that mans activities have anything to do with warming.  The planet's system for removing CO2 seems to be working just fine.  Natural releases of green house gases dwarf human emissions.


Is climate change happening?
Yes. The earth has been in a constant state of climate change since the beginning.  Normal for the earth is change.  It is not normal for it to have a steady unchanging climate.  Should we be aware of this? Yes.  Should we make attempts to be prepared in advance for said change? Yes.  Should we try to predict what the change will be? Yes. Should we run around like chickens with our heads cut off trying to prevent it and laying blame for who's causing it? NO.

Better put quotation marks when calling those 98 in agreement "scientists".  Why?  Every "scientist" I have spoken to about this topic could not identify a little quirk in out atmosphere called the lapse rate.  Nor could they explain how the lapse rate could exist in their sacred "models".

Now can you?  If not, your science is more of a belief system than a good idea.

Is ice melting everywhere?  Last I checked it is also getting thicker in places.  Excess weight from ice is forcing glaciers to travel faster and break off into the ocean more.  Sure it may be receding in some places, but it is growing in other areas.

1998 was the most recent "hot" year, and it wasn't a record breaker.  That was almost 10 years ago.
