"There is no scientific proof that human emissions of carbon dioxide are the dominant cause of the minor warming of the Earth's atmosphere over the past 100 years"

He quit in 1986 because it had become too political and strayed away from the science he believed was its institutional strength.

Yea OK one scientist VS a vast amount of evidence of fact. People just need to look around to see there is global climate change. You don't even have to be a scientist to figure this out. I really wished they did not call it global warming but climate change.
January in the northern part of Alaska this looks pretty normal for January in the northern tear of Alaska.

pictures like this are going on everywhere, now. however, this is not, in itself, proof that man is the cause. here is what i know though:

constantly pumping gasses into the atmosphere is going to change SOMETHING. expecting it not to, would be like pissing into your pool for weeks and expecting the water chemistry not to change.

is there money that may want to influence the scientific research on this issue? sure. but if such a thing is even possible, a LOT of it would be coming from both sides.

simply because liberal politicians attempt to take advantage of things like this, does not necessarily mean that they created it.

investing in renewable energy is a great idea, even if global warming is total BS.

also....everyone who gets fired from a job like this claims bias or persecution. "creation scientists" will always claim persecution, for example, when scientific journals wont publish their "research." their claims are not true simply because they say that they are. maybe theyre just the oddball nuts, with garbage research, that everyone else claims.

People who deny climate change need to spend more time outdoors, and even better by the ocean.

Alaska has been 15-30 degrees above normal in spots this winter. The jet stream is so screwed up, thats its jetting way into N AK(as opposed to between CA to BC where it most commonly is) and then jetting from the arctic, and slamming the East coast and south.

I work in the fishing industry in AK. Every year it keeps getting warmer and warmer, and water conditions are changing. We have tropical blue water, drift up into AK waters now. You go out 20 miles and people are catching Tuna, and Blue Sharks, and seeing Sun Fish and Sea turtles, on their Alaskan Salmon trips.

90% + of scientists seems to agree.

Weather isn't climate remember?

Of course the alarmists only use that excuse when the weather doesn't match their argument. When it does, or whenever a hurricane hits, they're more than happy to play the global warming card.

Thanks for confirming what I already knew about alarmists and how hypocritical they are.

Yep. The guy who, after he got kicked out of Greenpeace, made his bed with and invested in the exact people who he opposed during his time as an environmentalist is now a spokesperson for those companies he's invested in!?!?

Read between the lines.

People in the US especially in the mid-west believe that climate change is bull because in their area it has been colder. People look in their little world and make a their mind up for the whole world.

I'm from Iowa and yeah, it's been colder and last year it snowed in May. When I was a kid (I'm 32 right now) it was common to go trick or treating in the snow. Now we don't get snow until late November or even December. I've noticed a gradual change in when our weather is because of it. However, that's the climate change here. It almost seems as if we are getting the old Wisconsin winters and KC is getting our old winters. Just like in the summer between late April and early July is when we use to have all the tornadoes. Yet, in the past 5 years we've had an astonishing # of tornadoes (not just here but everywhere in the U.S.) in March and early April. My apt. was wiped out about 3 years ago March 6th. I've seen snow one week tornadoes the next and snow the week after that. It's not normal! It's just weird. I can't explain it but somebody can. Lots of theories and lots of facts to support a bunch of them.

Global warming/climate change seems to be the "evolution" like theory with weather. No matter how many facts support it you still have those people who refuse to accept it because of some belief or some "missing link". lol

 

[saikyom]

I agree about the name "climate change"
In Morocco we used to have,all four seasons,but recently we have a colder weather,summer starts in May and lasts until November,then the rest of the year is just insanely cold,degrees unseen in this region's history....

 

[glennrod]

A convenient point of view for selfish people who arrogantly believe that we are doing nothing to the environment despite filling the atmosphere with garbage. how stupid can you be, seriously?. I have seen the weather change in my young lifetime. record breaking floods, record breaking droughts, well actually, the records keep on getting smashed almost every year. this kind of arrogance will cost a heavy price for the future. what are you gonna say when its too late?

[glennrod]

evolution and climate change are different. I see no reason for those two different issues to be lumped together. much like marijuana is often lumped in with gay marriage.

Yep this guy is in the pockets of many big corporations and advocated cutting down the rain forests to grow GM foods. He is probably the last person anyone should listen to on environmental issues.

While I agree that evolution denial and climate change denial are two different issues that needs to be addressed separately (but that both NEEDS to be addressed), the vid I posted was about similarities in strategy and tactics used by the proponents of the two "denialisms" and how both uses well funded PR, misdirection and scams in place of evidence.

 

[sangreporsangre]

Well that's the end of that controversy then.

I'm still waiting on global cooling.

who's denying climate change??? are there people denying that there has been warm periods and ice ages?

people find this new cry about man made climate change to be bull because these same people, just 10 years ago, told us New York would be under water by now and Senators would be taking a gondola to the capital....

it's pretty arrogant to be believe the climate never changed before you got here

They get lumped together because they are two examples of people refusing to believe what science tells them.

But yeah, I have no idea why gay marriage and marijuana get lumped together.
