rsx and 5dime you two are one of the most ignorant people i've ever communicated with on a forum. i use the word ignorant because you two choose to ignore the facts that i've provided.
rsx, you proclaim victory on this little debate because i chose not to reply to 'checks and balances'. i got something to say regarding that, what checks and balances were there 500million years ago when there were no factories, deforestation, or vehicles? why do we find a choking amount of co2 hundreds of thousands of years ago in our glaciers?
you guys can keep thinking the way you want, i just hope you remember this thread 30 years later and feel stupid when you realize i was right

we dont know for sure, but logic would dictate that destroy the things (trees) that give you what you need to live (oxygen), is a bad thing. no? and if its the general consensus that its a bad thing, shouldn't we try to mitigate said destruction?

If you're a sinner (bible states we're all born sinners), you're going to be killed by God. Mars: there's no evidence of life on mars. It doesn't even have an atmosphere, anything on its surface during daytime gets soaked with the suns deadly radiation. Anything on its surface during night undergoes temperatures of -60degrees. There may have been life on mars eons ago but definitely not now. You don't need to be a scientist to figure this one out. Global Warming
TOTAL SEA ICE:
1980 Southern Hemisphere = 4.7 million sq km
1980 Northern Hemisphere = 15.0 million sq km
Total = 19.7 million sq km
2009 Southern Hemisphere = 5.8 million sq km
2009 Northern Hemisphere = 14.1 million sq km
Total = 19.9 million sq km

Total sea ice is variable, some years in the past happen to have more ice than the present, however, it consistently remains nearly identical on average.
"You think SUVs are the cause of glaciers shrinking? … Don't believe what you hear out of Hollywood and Washington, D.C. … [C]limate history proves that Gore has the relationship between carbon dioxide concentration and global warming backward. A higher concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere does not cause the Earth to be warmer. Instead, a warmer Earth causes the higher carbon dioxide levels." Dr. Howard Hayden of the University of Connecticut
They made a book for people who think it's real:
"The global warming industry’s tactics already range from comical to reprehensible. As a result of a cooling atmosphere -- which thanks to the “global cooling” panic we began measuring in 1979 -- you are distracted with irrelevant surface temperatures. This is possibly because more than 90% of our surface thermometer network is in violation of rules for locating the instruments. For example, why are so many now on asphalt parking lots, black tar roofs, airport tarmacs, and even hanging directly above barbeque grills?" http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/reali...lcontinue.html

No way am I going to let you get away with this fucking shit.
All you've done was tell me that the Bible predicts the end. Big fucking whoop. Everyone knows that.
No where in the Bible does it say that we will end in the year 2000.
Since you're too stupid to remember what you wrote I suggest you re-read what you said.
Again, the bible does not say shit about the year 2000. If anything you owned your self with your own bullshit.
Furthermore, we cannot claim to know that life on mars never existed.
Since your imagination is very limited I am obliged to tell you that life can exist in many forms. Bacterial and/ or otherwise. Life is life.
Does it exist now? I doubt it. Did it exist there before? Maybe.
As for Global Warming.. If you can really ignore the signs then I say to you Ignorance really is bliss. Regardless of what fucked up bullshit you may believe the proof contradicting you is out there increasing our sea levels and melting our frost novas, nigguh.
Here, allow me to educate you for a change.
MYTH: Recent cold winters and cool summers don’t feel like global warming to me.
FACT: While different pockets of the country have experienced some cold winters here and there, the overall trend is warmer winters around the globe.
Measurements show that over the last century the Earth’s climate has warmed overall, in all seasons, and in most regions. Climate skeptics mislead the public when they claim that the winter of 2003–2004 was the coldest ever in the northeastern United States. That winter was only the 33rd coldest in the region since records began in 1896. Furthermore, a single year of cold weather in one region of the globe is not an indication of a trend in the global climate, which refers to a long-term average over the entire planet.

I do wholeheartedly agree with that. what i'm trying to say in my past few posts, and i'm probably not communicating well enough, is that the scale at which this harms the environment is much smaller than what was predicted. the amount of influence human life has on our planet is such an insignificant figure that one could say it's the cost of living with our current technology.
obviously try not to do bad things to the planet. logic also dictates that co2 were at extreme levels in the past. why don't you care to elaborate on this, rather than make like the other 2 users and go off on your own facts? i addressed yours, now address mine.

What you're saying is that (quote above) is that during ~500m years ago there were high levels of Co2 gases, without vehicles and man-made pollution, correct? I agree with you! It's clearly evident in trapped sample glacier cores. What I'm not buying is the fact that you equate Temperature and gas levels from 500 million years ago to Today's temperature and gas levels.
The only point I'm trying to get across is: Increasing human population+encroachment+habitat destruction+deforestation+industrialization+(to some extent cars)+extinction will have an effect on the environment.
PS. It's unfortunate, you got all spazzy and decide to mouth off and because of that I'm going to stop responding.

It is also a fact that human power alone cannot change the earth's environment fluctuations noticeably within a few hundred years.
Like I mentioned in a previous post, during the Last Glacial Maximum, the world was basically covered in all glaciers. But BEFORE that, the world was a barren, dry land. With that said, there's was and has been HUGE change in temperature before "humans began terrorizing our environment." | Whoops, missed this one.
Global warming is a long-term problem that should not be left to future generations. The onus is on us. And I think we can and have been changing the environment (animal extinctions, deforestation, encroachment, etc). I'm not one to fear monger that impending doom is just around the bend, but if we can leave a more positive influence, why don't we? Shouldn't we strive to be better and not settle for mediocrity?

Climate change has always happened, will always happen. It has naturally been warmer and colder than current trends. In my opinion human impact is negligible in this aspect.
Obviously we should strive for efficiency and to use renewable resources, and not even for environmental reasons alone. But the global warming propaganda madness is pretty bullshit.

i love discussions like this
for the record, it is still called "the theory of global warming" for a reason, its a theory and nothing has been proven to complete satisfaction of the scientific community, it would do everyone well to remember that
it would also do well to remember that the recorded change in temperature over the last century is a C-hair over 1 degree Farenheit
lets toss this out there for for fun, where is temperature recorded around the world? weather stations, is it fair to assume that temperature measuring equipment wasnt as sophisticated in 1902 as it is in 2009?
is it also fair to assume that maybe the records from 1902 arent as complete from around the entire globe as they would be today?
lets say we werent getting temperature information reliably from around the equator in 1902 simply due to the primitive nature of settlements around the equator? but we are receiving more information today as you can now use satelites to gather temperature data where it isnt practical to have a station?
maybe our entire 1 degree rise in temperature is based off better science and a more widespread sample?
maybe its not
fact of the matter is, there is NO way to know for sure
and any scientist that claims to know for certain is more interested in where their next paycheque is comming from than the actual science
and to stay OT Obama is about as much of a waste of flesh as carl Marx, and for all the same reasons

Do we need to chart this out for you? | The real question is how much of an impact does it have? Climate change results from variations in five different factors: the sun's output of radiant heat, the Earth's orbit, the composition of the atmosphere, the amount of dust produced by volcanoes, and levels of land and oceans resulting from movement of the Earth's crust. There are three variations of the Earth's cycles: interglacial, mild glacial and glacial. Each one is dependent on the amount of heat the Earth receives from the sun, and when it reaches a critical threshold, each caused by the variations in the factors I mentioned, it dips into the next cycle. It's possible that previous "climate changes" have been affected solely by overpopulation of cows, buffalo and elephants, all of which emit high levels of methane. Other changes could have been induced by large volcanic eruptions along the Pacific Rim (or any other fault line), whose dust and clouds managed to effectively hide the sun for an extended amount of time. There have been instances of giant forest fires, large enough to cover entire provinces and states. Who's to say that the amount of razing we've done over the past century hasn't surpassed natural forest fires over the course of time? Who's to say that the emissions caused by our cars and factories are still naught in comparison to methane level from animals? Who's to say that the change in our weather is the effect of ourselves when, if you look into recorded weather history, it's on par with many days in decades long past?

Um.. I'm going to have to agree that climate change has always been happening.. I'm not gonna say that we humans don't have an effect on the planet.. because that would just be plain ignorant..BUT what is true is the planet HAS been changing.. I mean.. what?.. we humans have only been around for 2.2 million years or so? It was about 6 million years ago since our ancestors were just starting to walk up right? Well lets put 6 million years into perspective.. that's about a mere.. 60 ice ages or so? Correct me if I'm wrong on any of this.. This is just acquired knowledge.. I'm sure none of you are geophysicists or environmental geologists.. and most of your information has probably been acquired through browsing wikipedia, or typing in "climate change" into google.. It's really quite hard to say exactly where I stand on this whole climate issue.. because I only know from what i read.. Plus the fact that there is so much propaganda in the media.. It's hard to sit down and decipher fact.. I'm sure most of you can say the same..
.. and another thing.. When you decide to debate about science and fact, or use logical reasoning to interpret physical data... please don't try to quote excerpts from the bible.. It has little to no academic merit, and has a track record of bronze age superstitious none sense.. It has no place in the academic arena.. and it makes you look pretty dumb..
