lol al gore lost the election so he made up global warming, something he cant be wrong about.

mr. elite, Way to go you avoid responses and reply with unrelated posts!

And you think dumping that 0.01% (which is billions) of CO2 in the air makes things better?

I won't get into the debate too much but I think some people should watch this:

I wonder how much 99.99% percent is...

I think that's extra crispy on God's oven

I'm still not seeing any evidence that it's not man-made.

Why is it that the only people who say it's fake are individual scientists but every group of scientists in the world say it's man-made and dangerous?

Why believe a handful of individual scientists over the scientific community as a whole, who are subject to peer review? Do you think that 99% of the scientists are "in on it" or something, and there are just a handful of scientists who actually care about the scientific method and the truth and all that crap?

If you want to know how scientists actually feel about this, here's a list of a few dozen reports, all saying the same thing:

On any issue, you can find a couple individual scientists who are full of shit and you can pay them to say whatever you want. That's why they have peer review and we can see what the entire scientific community says as a whole, and weed the nutjobs out.




And why's everybody ganging up on my previous post? The temperatures are rising. That's a fact. If they keep rising, the icecaps will melt completely and drown all the coasts in the world, which is where a majority of all cities are located. That's a fact. If you want to argue either of those facts, cite some sources.

Whether it's caused by humans or not, when faced with those 2 facts, wouldn't you want to try to stop it? Or is your argument seriously going to be "oh it's just natural for us all to get wiped out by global warming, so fuck it let's all die it's nature lulz." ?

why was this locked??? lol

i have no idea why, but these threads almost allways end with long arguments

Why'd this thread die??? lol

I blame global warming.

EDIT: which is a direct cause of too many people playing Wii Fit.

EDIT2: I'm going to slap someone if fkusumot doesn't do a "I blame Wii Fit" about global warming.

Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0DJEKyRGA0&feature=related

I think it's weird for people to assume that humans can dump billions of tons of CO2 into the air and then not believe that's the cause of the weather getting worse. It seems like the most logical conclusion.

It's like throwing a rock into a pond and claiming the splash was due to an invisible fish rather than the rock.

I edited the following post in case the "not like religious doctrine" part was what caused this thread to be locked:

"Actually, to rephrase: science is not like religious doctrine. It is possible for an old hypothesis to be proven incorrect without us throwing all climate science out the window because some people in the 60's talked about climate cooling.

EDIT: By "science is not like religious doctrine" , I mean that it is not set in stone in that the term "science" in this context is generally understood as being "scientific consensus." Scientific consensus can evolve and change over time even to the point of completely disproving former scientific consensus.

One cannot use a mistake in the past (the global cooling hypothesis) to disprove today's hypothesis of global climate change. For one, we have come a long way from a technological perspective. More importantly though, "the global cooling hypothesis" was NOT a scientific consensus. The Global climate change hypothesis IS a scientific consensus.
