I thought that site ^ ^ ^ had been thoroughly discredited...

[j2k4]

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...

Mike-

Once and for all:

NO ONE IS DENYING GLOBAL WARMING.

You aren't being half as crafty with your words as you think - the issue is whether or not human activity is the reason it is happening, so stick to that, huh?

Good, then we both agree. But let's not be misleading by saying that my referenced post in that thread is somehow proof of me engaging in the same thought. If you review my other posts in that thread, you'll see that I fully acknowledged a trend in increasing temperatures and followed with my understanding of the research in question, dissenting from the very logic that originated in the thread.

Then we are in agreement

Here's an article posted today that's pertinent to the discussion. Hey look, it's from Auburn!

Answer to speedy tree growth lies in air pollution, Auburn University study shows | Fox News

AUBURN, AL – As the scientific community worries about greenhouse gas emissions contributing to global warming, a new Auburn University study suggests the Southeastern U.S. absorbs more carbon than it produces. And, at least in the short term, air pollution may actually be helping to speed the growth of young, carbon-absorbing forests in the region.

“Our study actually showed that Southeast carbon uptake is much faster than other regions,” said Hanqin Tian, a professor at Auburn’s School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences, and lead author of the study published in the journal Ecosystems. “This area has trees that are very young and the growth is very fast. So, they uptake more carbon from the atmosphere.”

While earlier studies have examined the effect of individual factors on carbon storage and climate change, Tian developed a computer model that takes into account multiple natural and manmade variables – such as land use, climate and pollution – over the past century.

The model suggests that moderate amounts of air pollution, in the form of carbon and nitrogen, had a fertilization effect on young forests. Many of these new trees appeared on abandoned agricultural land during the mid-20th century.

“In the short term, it could increase the carbon uptake,” Tian said. “But that’s not guaranteed for long.”

The Auburn study suggests the Southeast is approaching a “tipping point.” The region’s urban areas are growing. And, despite the temporary fertilization effects of atmospheric carbon and nitrogen, Tian said increasing levels of other pollutants, such as ground level ozone, threaten to do more harm than good to the environment in the long-term.

“The take-home message is we really need to do urban/land use planning and also air pollution control to help the Southern U.S. forests to become maybe a sustainable carbon sink,” Tian said.

Now that's what I call good science.

Continental U.S. breaks heat record in first half of 2012 - Chicago Tribune

"The last 12 months also have been the warmest since modern record-keeping began in 1895, narrowly beating the previous 12-month period that ended in May 2012."

This is conclusive evidence of man's culpability for global-warming?

Who said that?
What makes you say that?


Don't be a jackass.

So does this represent evidence at all? Aren't their models that predict global warming/climate change will lead to significant cooling in Europe? Am I way off base? ha.. Does it jive with the models for the Continental US to heat up?

I'm not sure, but that sounds interesting.

I'll do a bit of research.
