Rubang, you gave an argument based on the 2004 movie "Day After Tomorrow." EPIC FAIL

 

I've been silently reading all of the responses to this thread and as of yet no one has provided a sound, supporting argument for global warming being man-made. In fact, I have never heard a single good supporting argument, and I strongly suspect that's because there aren't any.

To whoever said global warming is a scare tactic used so scientists can continue to have jobs, you are correct. mr.elite

To whoever said human CO2 output completely dwarfs the output by industries, thank you for using common sense. mr.elite

Not to mention that we would be so lucky to have average temperatures rise.

One of the most important things I've learned is that the media is very, very powerful... Yes Read Below

 

Yes. Please read my link. It will turn your heads.

BTW: The cold kills twice as many people as the heat does.

Since the 1920's deaths per year caused by extreme weather are down 95%.

"It is the greatest scam in history. I m amazed appauled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; it is a scam"

    ---John Coleman Founder of the Weather Channel speaking out on Global Warming

You do realize that you're linking to an advertisement for a book, right?

Yeah it's a book about scientists who oppose global warming, and I read the whole article (summary) and it didn't convince me of anything.  It just said it's hard for them to get attention in the media.  They wanted me to then assume it was because it's hip to believe in global warming and faulty science but the truth can't get out, that these mere 500 scientists have discovered.  I don't know, maybe it's just a crappy book.  Either way, that link was a horrible example.

I'm not gonna click every link in your earlier gigantic post.  But if you want to give me one or 2 good links, I'll be happy to read them and discuss them.

"The cold kills twice as many people as the heat does."  Okay.  Irrelevant to global warming.

"Since the 1920's deaths per year caused by extreme weather are down 95%."  Okay.  Irrelevant to global warming.

And what's with your constant quoting of John Coleman as if he's credible?  Yeah he founded the Weather Channel, so what?  He aws the president and CEO when he founded it in 1982, and they kicked him out in only one year.  Now he's just a weatherman, like he's been for 26 years.  And there's a big difference between wanting to sue somebody and being able to sue somebody at all.  He's just a wackjob these days.  Not a credible source.

In fact, if you go to the Weather Channel's web site right now, www.weather.com, there's a link to a Climate & Green section on the front page, and I just took a poll there.  It asked "Taking the amount of solar power hitting Earth in 1 hour, how long could you power the world?"  5 minutes, 2 days, or 1 year?  I picked one year, and it said "You are correct!  That's one whole year!  And if you installed 1 kilowatt solar system in your home, each month you'd prevent 300 lbs. of CO2 pollution." and gave me a link to find out more.  Looks like the Weather Channel thinks minimizing CO2 pollution is a good idea, and it's only their ex-CEO who's raising a stink.
