Climate change

Quote by Too Hot
I am told that there were quite a few people living in what is now the English Channel a few thousand years ago. All their bloody camp fires caused so much global Warming their land is now 80 feet under water.
Then again, maybe it is just that the planet does change and todays subterranean reef is tomorrows holiday destination and todays holiday destination elsewhere on the planet is tomorrows subteranean coral reef. Is it possible that the world does change - quite naturally? And has done for millions of years before and will continue to do so for millions of years more?.... Dunno, just a thought.

I will be long dead when a real expert comes along with REAL proof, that actually ya know climate change was a load of old cobblers.

Accurate satellite, balloon and mountain top observations made over the last three decades have not shown any significant change in the long term rate of increase in global temperatures. Average ground station readings do show a mild warming of 0.6 to the last 100 years, which is well within the natural variations recorded in the last millennium. The ground station network suffers from an uneven distribution across the globe; the stations are preferentially located in growing urban and industrial areas ("heat islands"), which show substantially higher readings than adjacent rural areas ("land use effects").
There has been no catastrophic warming recorded.

Good job we agree on some thing

Over 30,000 scientists signed a petition urging the United States to reject the Kyoto agreement, stating:
There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing, or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.
Additional petitions, such as the Manhattan Declaration on Climate Change included scientists and researchers in climate and related fields, economists, policymakers, and business leaders who had reviewed the evidence and affirmed that climate change is natural and normal and that carbon dioxide is not a “pollutant,” among other things.
Various surveys were conducted among scientists and practitioners in earth and atmospheric sciences showing much weaker support than warming propagandists had claimed. And then came Climategate, exposing the fraudulent science that had some scientists and so many non-scientists believing that something more had been going on than actually was. Belief in catastrophic man-made global warming dropped like a rock in all quarters.

I am one who does not believe in climate change and believe, as paranoid as it may sound, I believe it is being promoted as a way for taxation. Granted nobody wants a polluting industry by them, suffer ill-health from pollution, or die early because of pollution. For me I can remember the news media talking about us entering 10,000 year ice age in the early 70s, then during the late 70s - 80s it was acid rain along with CFC damaging the ozone, O3. Now the tide has reversed and it is climate change which a bit more obscure. What amazes me in almost no discussion about climate change does anyone talk about the influence of the aging sun along with other cosmic events our climate. It seems to me as though scientists who discuss this thinks we live in a vacuum free of any influence from the universe around us. My feeling is if climate changing is happening, it is tied to the effects of the sun which means cows, CO2, and other man-made products have no effect on it. It is time to leave the cows alone and begin focusing on issues that really matters like the economy, not climate change.
