Dear Global Warming Deniers

[i3igpete]

Can't wait 'til this interglacial period ends! Just wait 50,000 years and you will all be BEGGING for global warming.

Honestly it has not been any hotter here this year then the last few years,

I can live with the heat... sure the 10-15 days of 100-114* temps during the day was a little rough, but i can live with it. As soon as the sun went down it was perfect out.

I remember HOTTER days when i lived in Wisconsin when i was a child.

Definitely cooler here than it was 15 years ago.

LOTS cooler...

Alex, an engineer such as yourself ought to have the wherewithall to respect the fact that one occurrence of a particular phenomenon is not evidence of causality. By your logic, if we hit record lows this winter, we could just as easily say that global warming doesn't exist.

I don't think anyone disagrees that the Earth has been in a warming trend for the past 100 years (read: 100 of the Earth's 4.54 billion years of existence). The debate is whether that warming trend is anthropogenic. Have you sat in lectures on the subject from either side? One of my engineering professors gave a brief lecture discussing the discrepancy between anthropogenic global warming theory and physics and his argument was quite compelling. The media (and the far left in general) would have you believe that there is an overwhelming consensus within the academic world on anthropogenic global warming, but I'm here to tell you that based on my experiences that is simply not the case.

Is it possible that carbon emissions has an effect on climate? Absolutely. But let's not jump to conclusions on a science that is still in its relative infancy. There is still a fairly significant disconnect between the theory and the empirical data, and with the scandal that brought about doubts of measurement bias in said empirical data, its pretty understandable that many in the general public and the academic world are skeptical of the theory. There are a slew of factors that determine the climate on this Earth, so you can imagine how difficult it would be to have enough evidence to narrow down the cause of climate trends down to one specific variable. I only wish climatologists would take the kind of care the CERN scientists have in their studies as the science of both subjects is incredibly uncertain.

The earth has been warming since the ice age. Dont fear that the climate is warming, fear what caused the last ice age and what could cause the next.

Hoax, maybe. Certainly makes you question what the US government's real plans are...

In the previous thread I was laughed off like a heretic for stating that weather is not climate, meaning that individual days, weeks, or months of weather is not indicative of climate. However, the sum total average of several years' weather is climate.

My argument in the past was that one cold week in winter is not indicative of a reversal of global warning, just as one warm week in summer is not proof positive of climate change.

My argument now is that following the logic of all the naysayers from before, those same people should now be posting about a single hot week's weather pattern being proof positive of global warming.

Thread Titled: "Global Warming My Ass"

After another cold, 15 degree below zero weekend, my wife and I had a
discussion about the weather and all this global warming crap.

25 years ago, when we first moved up here, we almost always had green
Christmas's and then heavy snowfall in January and February and it was
common to have that 60 degree day or two in late January and then back to
normal temps. About 15 years ago, it began to slowly change. The
temperatures seemed to get colder earlier. 5 years ago we set all time cold
records and 2 years ago we set the 2nd coldest records. This season we had
a few 10 degree below zero temperatures in October and, as with the past 5+
years, the cold temperatures stayed much earlier than normal.

A friend of mine called a few weeks ago talking about racing on the
Bonneville Salt Flats. I decided to check out the "facts" about it. The
Bonneville Salt Flats cover a 159 square mile in northwestern Utah and were
formed through the evaporation of the Pleistocene-era Lake Bonneville.
15,000 years ago, Lake Bonneville was the size of Lake Michigan covering
one-third of present day Utah and parts of neighboring states.

It made me think, can you imagine if this natural occurrence happened today?
My God, the Global Warming doom and gloomers would be filling us with
propaganda about the world coming to an end.

About 3-4 weeks ago, my aunt called from Tampa and said she had to scrap the ice off her windshield. My mother said they had one night in the upper 40's a few weeks ago (she lives in the FL Keys).

Just curious, how has it been for others this winter?

Here is a picture my wife took over the weekend which I thought you'd enjoy.



And a great article by John Coleman, the founded of The Weather Channel.

My weekend:

March 1, 2009 / Snow

Great pictures here.

EDIT: first snow in Auburn this much since about a decade.

we pave the earth... and these guys still deny we have any affect on it... give it up man...

these guys will go to their graves denying global warming was a myth. Just like the guys who went to their graves thinking the earth was flat...
