Global Warming?

Rose Krouse: No such thing. Also, there is no way to stop the sun from blowing up, no way to stop the galaxy from being sucked up by a black hole, and no way to stop a huge meteor from hitting the Earth. Don't worry about stuff that is out of your control. Do you think the dinosaurs worried about global warming? It is part of the evolution of the earth to flux up and down. We are just a small blip in the universe. No biggie....Show more

Blair Abdi: I am not a big believer in global warming being caused by humans, therefor I do not think that we can stop it. I think that it is a natural cycle. But I do think that it is really dumb to fill our air with carcinogens that we must breath in. And I do find it very dumb to depend on one source of energy.

Mitchell Pickens: No, because it is one of the most effective scams created by the government to brainwash societies.My 2 cents.

Carter Dewater: It's not new but it sure sounds scary.

Phillip Modafferi: We! have found plenty of ways to stop global warming. Stop cutting down trees and plant new ones, recycle, use natural renewable energy sources that don't pollute our atmosphere, these are all ways to combat global warming; it just needs to be done on a global scale. Too many people say I'll do it tomorrow or I don't have the money right now. If we keep going at this rate there isn't going to be a tomorrow.

Ardelia Liptow: yes i think we well stop global warming we are inventing cars that help stop global warming but i had in mind a car that takes in gas like car gas in the air and then turn it into good air so we can stop global warming and the the polar bears wont die so other kids in different times can see want they were and also pingeins also we need to start to recycle more so we can stop global warming and we need to tell china to stop pulluting in the air so much and we need to start planting more trees and we need to save the animals too we dont want then to die! well i hope we do stop global warming...Show more

Joaqu! in Dronko: Wow. You came to the right place, as there seems to be a bit of denial going on.Have you asked your best friend about it? It's possible that is just how she is, but she should know that it makes you a little uncomfortable that she's touchy/feely with him. If she's really your best friend, she should at least understand how you could feel that way about it.As for your boyfriend, your 14 and I assume he's close to your age. You're both very young and you really shouldn't stress a lot over your first relationship. You should be much more worried about your relationship with your best friend as they are much harder to find than boyfriends.Maybe she doesn't see a problem with her touchy-ness. Maybe he's stressed about them liking each other and doesn't know what to do because he's with you. Maybe they don't know what to do because they both care about you. Maybe he's just a typical guy and has run out of interesting things to say, so you need to pry words out ! of him.I know this is going to sound weird, but I think that since both of your parents have met him and possibly her, they may have some really good advice to give you. Trust me, they will really appreciate it if you ask them their opinions.My advice would be to sit down with them both (your boyfriend and your best friend) and talk to them and tell them that you want the truth about what is going on, if it doesn't turn out that it's just nothing and your boyfriend is being a guy and doesn't have much to say...._...Show more

Carter Edstrom: About what it is now. You need to read about the Sun and how it heats and cools the earth in cycles.

Mahalia Brindle: Hello Raine.An Arctic Vortex is not a new phenomenon, it’s just that the current one is more pronounced than most and is making it’s presence known.There are polar vortices associated with both the Arctic and Antarctic, they are basically rotating masses of cold air that exist in the atmosphere at altitude. They are formed because of the difference in temperature between the cold Polar air and the warmer air coming from the Tropics, the greater the temperature difference the stronger the vortex.These two air masses meet and because of the spinning effect of the Earth, known as the Coriolis Effect, they start rotating â€" counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern.Normally a high altitude of fast flowing air that circumnavigates the planet in the mid to high northerly latitudes, the Polar Jet Stream, keeps Arctic vortices in check by stopping them from moving sout! hward out of the Arctic.Recently the jet stream has been disrupted and at present it has a large meander in it and is flowing much further south than normal, this is allowing cold air to move down from the Arctic and across parts of North America....Show more

Serita Hefferon: Earth's temperature would be relatively the same. We haven't caused a very significant effect on the earth with the burning of fossil fuels.

Randal Deyarmond: Andy got it right. It would be within a degree or two. Those who gave him down arrows are ignorant. Even if it were the same, it would be within a degree or two. I can't help but wonder who these people are that think it has warmed so much. They are apparently the product of brain washing by junk science.

Serena Doak: Absolutely! It is neither new or different. As I remember it, in the winter of 89-90 we had -19 below zero in Kentucky and in Alaska they were having balmy weather. Vortex is a stimulating word. It sounds powe! rful, yet creepy and something to be afraid of. Perfect for a PR stunt.! O-o-o-o-w-o-o! Dat big bad ole vortex gonna getcha! And a bunch of Obama voters will get scared. Works like magic, but in fact, it is a tried and true formula.Joseph Goebbels,“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”...Show more

Marion Wieboldt: Is that good or bad?

Renato Abatiell: it would be the same as it is now. If there have been dinosaurs on the north and south pole before we were here what makes you think burning them up would have raised the Temperature? now theres Ice on the caps. I want to say something to you to see if it makes you think. I! n the Philippine Islands there are 7700 islands at low tide and at high tide there is 7100 islands yet they have been people there that built Church's and roads by the sea in the 1500's and they still live by the sea to this day so if global warming is true why haven't the oceans raised up enough to wash away the roads and Church's ? there have been typhoons since man has been on those islands and still they build their house just 50 meters away from high tide. Think about that for a while, and think that just because some egg heads say it's true don't make it so, critical thinking is just that critical thing try using it and try to not be brain washed by other people who have agenda's in mind. Not trying to ridicule you just trying to help you understand the world better. And just because science says it's so does not mean it's true it just means they agree so they can keep their jobs. Scientists are to think on there own and not come to the same conclusions together they! need to think for themselves and derive their answers at their own th! en debate it. As much as we know today we still don't no much....Show more

Maria Bengston: As you can see here, it would be a little less 1 degree Celsius lower:http://globalwarmingart.com/wiki/Image:Holocene_Te...The temperature itself isn't the problem. The problem is how fast the temperature is changing. Look at how little it changed over the past 8,000 years compared to how high it spiked recently (see where it says '2004'). When the climate changes rapidly, it may change faster than species can adapt to. That's the problem....Show more

Jinny Dronen: About the same as it is now as our current atmospheric co2 is only about 1/3rd what it has been in previous warm periods like the medieval one.

Geraldo Mccalla: Yeah. a cooling cycle and it will happen

Bethany Blocker: Liberals in the government get kickbacks from this, so they'll keep pushing for it. Global Warming is just an excuse to empty the wallets of the American taxpayers.

Giovanna Sherlin: ! hopefully, but i doubt it.

Keven Woodington: If global warming wa! s real maybe, but did you know that the Earth has been cooling for the past 10 years. This winter 27 United States cities reported the coldest winter in over a decade. The Summer is lasting for a shorter period of time. Our Sun hasn't had so much as a solar flare in the past three years. Global warming? Are you serious? Look around you! 31,000 Scientists say global warming is complete BS! Only 4,000 say that it is a real threat because Al Gore told them to. People need to educate themselves more. Did you know that they found one million square miles more ice in Antarctica than ever recorded before. It is getting colder. This stuff happens in cycles man and now it is time for us to get ready for some really cold weather coming! This planet has always been filled with CO2. CO2 has nothing to do with it!...Show more

Shamika Schools: "Professor Lindzen comments that this failure of observation to match prediction cannot be so easily explained, since the transient response! would be likely to exceed the equilibrium response. He concludes that no more than about a third of the observed trend at the surface is likely to be due to greenhouse warming, and adds: “This is about as close as one ever gets to proof in climate physics.”On this analysis, “global warming” is unlikely to be dangerous and extremely unlikely to be catastrophic."http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/monckton/greenho...Professor Lindzen was talking about the computer models not matching the real world in that there was no increased mid tropospheric warming relative to the surface. By that logic, since there was an increase of 0.6 degrees last century, you can attribute no more than about 1/5th of a degree to human caused CO2. That is of course using the flawed argument of alarmists that all the warming was caused by humans in an otherwise stable climate. The climate fluctuates so nobody can say with certainty what it would have been without the extra CO2 but it probabl! y would have been a very minor difference....Show more
