Gobal warming is a lie. And I should stop spreding lies. Obama, now in office for 11 weeks, has idiot researchers. Very persuasive.

gobal warming is a lie, as of today it cannot even be called global warming the idiot obama researchers have to call it climate change because in the last ten years the earth has cooled down by 7%. the information you have is based on junk from the 70′s and if you want an accurate depiction of what is happening now look at unbiased thoughts of today’s climateologists that have done recent work on this subject. the earth will continue to cool down and heat up until the next ice age, all caused by the sun. humans cannot effect the enviornment as much as the sun does, so stop spreding lies and bundle up.

Hi, Asher,

I have always been concerned about environmental issues: pollution, deforestation, species loss, overpopulation (which is the root cause of them all). I see these effects everywhere I go. Climate change didn’t become important to me until it’s effects became manifest in the 90s. Before then, the science was unclear in my opinion, and now the evidence of human influence is overwhelming. Weighting that influence is difficult, though.

Quote:
“corn ethanol. Not only does corn ethanol drive up the price of food, its a net user of fossil fuels. Thats right guy it uses more fossil fuel BTU’s to produce a gallon of corn ethanol than the BTU’s in the ethanol. But the real clincher is the additional fertilizer (produced with fossil fuel) adds to the already grossly polluted ground water and run off to the Missisippie River which has a 200 mile dead zone at its mouth were nothing grows.” Unquote.

The part about ethanol seems totaly true.
Saw a show on 20/20 or maybe it was 60 mins,one of the two, about how ethanol is a big problem.
Little less anger from James would be nice.What it looks like is, yes we are unclean to the earth,but also nature dose things to pollute the planet as well,like vulcanos.We as People can slow down, and act more clean to the Earth and Animals.The earth goes though changes and there is true and false about the warming.I don’t have the answers,but I do know we are getting cooler here in the west.3 degrees cooler.Thats a big change.The other question is what about the places on the planet that are warming?
I would like to have a green car what ever the answer is.
Looks to me like James got upset because he heard something he knows a little about,but not one of us knows it all.At the end of the day,let’s all forgive and forget.
Question to Art please.
Arthor have you always cared about all this warming,or is it good for bizz?
Thank you, I mean that question in a polite way.
Have a nice day.

I’m not really surprised that there are people who deny that our actions/decisions can cause (or have caused) changes in the earth or its atmosphere. I see it every day, and hear it from many.

I know people who adamantly defend their way of life and say that what we do on a daily basis holds no bearing. Some of those same people have come to realize that our choices do affect the planet. How can they not?

Though I believe there are regular climatic changes that occur, I also believe that human beings have caused changes to the planet.

Both sides use whatever data available to make their point, and a lot of people believe that’s all it is, a tug-of-war between two opinions with no real concrete proof from either.

And there are those who will probably never change their minds. They believe what they believe and that’s it. Thankfully enough people realize that our actions/decisions DO have consequences.

We’ll never give up the advantages to our way of life, but there can be more balance. Can’t there?

Thanks for two sides of a heated debate.

It was a joke, a riff on the false choices we are often faced with. Thanks for the note.

I was surprised by the title of your post, Art. It seems unbalanced, against the position you defend. I guess you meant to say, “Global warming: fact or fable”. Right?

Big up from the Netherlands.

James Martin’s rebuttal was well said — up until the last sentence, that is. Name calling has no place in the discussion and is only likely to harden positions taken.

According to a report on BBC news about the Global Climate Conference in Copenhagen, scientists said, that the worst-case scenarios on climate change envisaged by the UN two years ago are already being realised. More reports can be found on the BBC World News website.

To Dave and everyone who commented on Jim’s post, thank you all. I am heartened that so many people see the issue as we do.
