I think global warming is such a hoax and a political tool of the radical left!?

Hoax.

Look, CO2 represents a whopping 0.033% of the earth’s total atmosphere. That percentage is represented as 2.7 trillion metric tons annually. Of the total CO2 in the air, man-made emissions contributes roughly 24 billion metric tons of the annual percentage. Therefore, man-made CO2 emissions represents 0.89 or just under 1% of the total CO2 in the atmosphere. We’re talking about a micro-fraction of a fraction of the atmosphere.

We can remove all man-made emissions . . . heck remove all of mankind for that matter and CO2 will still represent a tiny fraction of the atmosphere. Not to mention that our absence from the planet would be even less noticed.

Is it political – you bet……

I was here when scientist stated the world would not be able to produce enough food to feed the population into the 21st century. Now we are feeding cars corn (in the form of alcohol).

I was here when scientist predicted the world would run out of oil by the mid 1990’s causing a global economic melt down. Now new global economies are growing in China, India, and South America.

I was here when scientist predicted the earth was going to freeze over causing another Ice age, and now they predict the earth is burning up.

Now some scientist predictions are 90% certain regarding global warming within the next century, but only 30% certain that it will snow tomorrow.

There has been evidence of crockodiles existing once upon a time in Alaska! Hippos in the Thames river – yet never during the recorded histroty of man have they existed there…..it is theorized by scientists that warming drove them away from these areas – how did this warming happen if man was not yet here?

Global warming is too political. If politicians cannot maintain the infrastructure of cities and countries, health care, retirement, or our taxes; how can anyone trust them to fix the world for the next 1 years?

It’s hard to imagine that the members from over 1 countries who reviewed over 50k scientific studies to put together the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports all have the same political agenda.

Given that there are members from Cuba and China to Thailand and Slovenia, it’s patently ridiculous to think that they all think like the U.S. “radical left.” It’s time to look beyond our borders and realize that global warming is not an issue invented by any American politician or political party.

Wake up. Scientific evidence isn’t political. The few scientists who say this warming trend is purely another manifestation of a cyclical event are in the minority. There may never be unanimity of belief, but look at what the majority of reputable scientists are saying and you’ll realize this isn’t a political invention.

And let’s just look at the bottom line — if you act like global warming is real and take steps to mitigate it, what happens if we’re wrong? We get cleaner air, renewable enery, and less pollution. Not such a bad deal. But if we all act like global warming is false and we’re wrong… then we’re in real trouble.

It is a hoax. A shakedown on the general public. Those who promote it want to control, those who believe it want to be controlled. Ironically a lot of the people who believe in global warming are the same ones that call Americans “sheeple”

I missed the results of some previous global scares.

Anyone know the results of that “ice age” we were supposed to have back in the 70’s?

How about back in the mid 80’s when soil erosion was the big problem? American farms producing less now?

Yup,

since the collapse of the Soviet union global marxists found a ripe cause to adopt. They found it in the environmental movement.. Who would say, “I want to rape the world, destroy it remove all it’s resources and on and on.” They found the audience will to adopt an issue that feels good but has no basis in fact.

I was in environmental studies in college back in the 70s, it was not much of a “envogue” field of study back then. As the marxist’s took over the movement when they began acting like the peace at any crowd lot, I dropped my Sierra Club membership.. I believe DU,Pheasants Forever, and Safari Club does more in one year to promote conservation and habitat then the Sierra Club ever done. Now the money that SC and other have taken from members is being used for political purpose. That purpose is to destroy economic development in the US and around the globe.

It’s not just a hoax. It is propaganda that makes Pravda look like a middle school newspaper. These guys have found a willing herd of sheep. A few of my friends that were in the same organizations and have geological, and economic education know that common sense is void in the debate.

To address the idiotic “statement” about “being in bed” with Big Oil, those who say that crap want to scapegoat development as the problem.

There is no problem. The earth has a cyclical climate. PERIOD. Sure the earth has warmed 7/10s of one percent over the last 1 years. Well Duh! we’ve only been recording temp for 1 years.

That is the end of their factual evidence.

There is no evidence it is human caused.

Can these DOLTS say Medieval Warming Period????!

The eco-marxist religion is clearly agenda driven. It lacks scientific validity. It is a “belief” not fact.

Here are two websites that contain a large compendium of valid scientific climate information.

Any time the word “BELIEF or BELIEVE” enters the conversation think “RELIGION”. It is cult of epic proportion. The only way to deprogram yourself or others is with facts and understanding.

I am a lifelong student. when I first heard of “Global Warming” I recall in my environmental studies in college the “prevailing” wind was around a new Ice Age.

With certainty climate changes, and has been doing so for 4.6 billion years. Sometimes quickly sometime slowly.

Man is inherently narcissistic and our cultural shapers have found ways to manipulate this for the purpose of gaining power.

The validity of IPCC report fails based on inadequate peer review, Most of the supposed 25 scientists involved are saying the content of the report is NOT what they recommended of even wrote.

What we can do about it? nothing. Don’t believe it. Use your common sense. If there is money involved, someone’s pocket will be lined.

Al Gore’s is definitely one of the primary pocket liners of the ecomarxist religion.

There is absolutely ZERO evidence that anyone has ever attempted to get any scientist to distort his results to favor the theory that human activities are contributing to global warming. On the other hand there is a LOT of evidence that scientists have been pressured in the other direction by government and by industry. Jim Hansen of NASA is probably the most prominent example.

So why do people keep saying that global warming is some kind of hoax or conspiracy?

Star for ya – I totally agree!

Global Warming is a myth and I’m sick of all the legislation that is coming out – it is a total waste of time and money!!! It is politically correct to decrease your carbon footprint. Besides the biggest supporter of this idiotic theory is a fat hypocrite that is a washed up politician!

Humans do not have that much control over the environment. Even if the US cut out everything, what about China and many other countries. They aren’t going to do anything. All or our grans efforts will be wasted.

In the early 1970s the scientists were certain that we were about to have an ice age due to global cooling. They were wrong then. These things a cyclical.

Some of these “brilliant” scientists took prior date and tried to predict what the weather was suppose to be. When they compared it to the actual weather, they were wrong EVERY TIME!

These same “brain-iacs” said that CA was going to have a warm wet winter – we are so dry and we froze our butts off this winter!

First of all, those of you claiming that the only proof is what the government lets us see, you are wrong. The theory of global warming has been around long before the government ever brought it up. Whether you beleive this theory or not does not make it go away. Seriously, if you can’t prove that it doesn’t exist then that means there is a chance that it does and I for one would rather do something about it now while we have the chance to fix it rather than argue about it until its to late to do something about.

Being a good steward of our planet has little to do with politics. In fact, it’s not really a matter of political beliefs at all, it’s about doing the morally right thing.

Do you like breathing fresh air? What about drinking clean water? Do you like the idea of having trees around for future generations? What about just going outside? Do you like all of these things? Well, if we continue to consume and pollute at current levels (and by we I am referring to the whole of humanity) then none of these things will be possible.

It doesn’t take a self-righteous left-winger or a room full of scientists to figure this one out; if you live off the fruit from an apple tree you certainly don’t want to consume all of the apples and then chop down the tree – would you?

Well based on your question NO! Global warming isn’t a hoax. The hoax is the radical left (AL GORE), who claim we are responsible for something that is natural. We do not cause global warming, it is a natural phenomenon. Did man cause global cooling, i.e. the Ice Age? NO.

TEMPERATURE INCREASES CAUSE INCREASES IN CO2 LEVELS.

CO2 doesn’t cause increases in temperature like they want you to believe. This is a scientific fact. They are trying to twist that FACT!

My first factor could be ‘which conspiracy’ there are actually maximum of and deniers seem to characteristic new ones fairly much on a weekly foundation. the region of technological information is ‘via and massive’ to ignore proper to the rants of the denier flow, over the years they are going to implode below the load of their very very own conflicting nonsense. “And with maximum of thousands and thousands of folk in on the act, how come none of them have broken ranks and long previous public?” that is style of like asking the place are even 10% of the 30,0 scientists from the OISM petition, who’re all strongly against AGW yet have not shown up at any scientific assembly in the final quite a few years. the place are even a million% which would be 3 hundred scientists, a protest on the annual AGU of three or 4 hundred scientists could make people think of, make the media take observe. Deniers have tried to describe this via announcing “oh they don’t desire their careers ruined” via the nasty AGW’s who get people fired” yet hang on, those people ‘supposedly’ have already placed their names on a petition. 30,0 scientists protesting at an AGU assembly could instruct previous doubt the petition isn’t pretend, yet this has not handed off (and could under no circumstances happen) because of the fact the petition is pretend and that i think of even many deniers are commencing as much as comprehend it extremely is. whether i did not artwork in a scientific group and had no wisdom of technological information i could nonetheless locate it annoying to have self assurance the communities you call who’s targets are frequently for the sturdy people all (NASA, NOAA, EPA) and fairly (Oxfam, pink pass and WHO) are area of one in all those stupid pointless conspiracy, fairly given the source of the theories, coming from political time table web sites like Heartland or Cato or any of the others who’s purely roll seems advertising front men for marketplace and appropriate wing politics.
