freakofnature, if you go to the pdf, there is a link to: www.scienceandpolicy.org So then, by this, there were no errors in the IPCC report? Still doesn't wash with me. And it is "big" to bacco, not "Big" oil? What's the connection??? It's a project for the Frontiers of Freedom - again, founded in 1996 by ex-Republican Senator Malcolm Wallop of Wyoming and which receives big bucks from big tobacoo. It's a conservative right-wing think tank. Again, why do you post from obviously biased sources? It would be like if I were to post from moveon.org or commondreams. Understand? I very well could post from moveon.org, commondreams, but I know they are biased, just like Frontiers of Freedom. Peace and God bless,

Pushing the button is another example of the kind of major impact that mankind can have over the planet. Or do you still deny that we have impact on the planet? Well, at least if we nuke half the population, now, it should eventually even itself out!!! Wouldn't you rather we eliminate half the population quickly? AND! I have never said we don't have an impact, I am confronting the doomsday theorist that say we are all gonna die if we don't conform to the church of global warming. Of course we have an impact, but the resources have to be used to maintain an earth population of more than a trillion people. The GW church members act as if humans are like a virus on a host body. God has set it up and gave us domain over all the earth. Otherwise the only way to confront this "issue" is we kill half the population and the living must live in the forest, in caves and in tents.??? But even if they do, the remaining living will have to... understand this will have to use the existing resources provided to live, still having an impact. Humans will continue to reproduce... and before long, we will be right back to where we are now. So to be honest, we just need to wipe out the human population all together. If, btw, global warming is as bad as it is and compares to the warming of the earth in the medieval times, why were there NO major impacts on human population at that time? No major ice melts covering over vast amount of land? And, if the earth had a major Ice Age, then, all of that ice melted, how come the earth isn't completely covered in water? Would you not agree that there were much larger areas of ice during the ice age? What happened to all of that melted ice? Where did it go? If then the ice caps melt, which I seriously doubt they will completely disappear, so even if half of the ice caps "melt" is that not less ice than appeared during the ice age? I think all the ice age left us was the "great lakes" between America and Canada and some nice smaller lakes and mountain ranges. So going back to living in tents. I know here in the area I live, the police department considers that "homelessness" they recommend, strongly urging those staying in tents, to find a homeless shelter BTW. We have ways of harnessing the powers of the earth, building dams, moving earth, extracting oil. But we don't have the ability to recreate uncertain weather patterns well enough to legitimately study the effects of co2 in the atmosphere. Therefore there is no real ability to know what the effects are going to be long term. Well, once again, this topic has gotten well beyond what I cared to discuss. I apologize for entering back into the conversation when I said I wouldn't. And, please, if I have offended or upset anyone, please forgive me. It is not my intent to be offensive, but only to discuss the realities of the effects of the so called global warming. I happen to disagree with: a) it is a man-made issue, b) that even natural warming of the earth is as drastic as those preachning say it is.

Not me, thanx! In a tongue-in-cheek way, I'm just giving the GW crowd some great ideas for when they come into power and take over the world. They're already making inroads: We are constantly bombarded with "big oil" is evil, "big tobacco" is evil, Wal-Mart is evil, etc. Every few years the CAFE standards get tightened. Building new power plants and refineries is at a standstill. Some group (I can't remember which one), recently declare horse racing cruel to animals, following the death of the horse in the Kentucky Derby. The IRS and state governments take more and more of our money each year. Groups are working to consolidate policies and activities of the US, Canada, and Mexico. The European Union. Global warming has evolved into a political issue, driven (I believe) by a Marxist agenda. I want no part of it! -Dave quote:

Well...I hope everyone is happy here who is in support of less drilling, less driving, less quality of life and less money in peoples pockets b/c you are getting for sure! It is crazy to believe for a second that some magical new technology will come around in a year or so that will be affordable, easy to make and readily available that will simultaneously be magically 'safe' for the earth. It seems our elected officials in congress right now care more about this false new religious/scientific way of thinking, known as "earth worship" rather than how everyday Americans in middle America are going to get by. Sure we COULD get our own oil from right under our nose, but unfortunately, you environmentalists have seen fit to deprive us of that and squeeze us to death b/c of this so-called 'global warming theory'.

Of course we have an impact, but the resources have to be used to maintain an earth population of more than a trillion people. Where did you get "more than a trillion?" There are 6.7+ billion people in the world today. At the rate we keep multiplying, I suppose that we could reach a trillion some day, but that day is still a long way off. quote:
The GW church members act as if humans are like a virus on a host body. There is no such a thing as "The GW Church." quote:
God has set it up and gave us domain over all the earth. And this is the fundamentalist justification for plundering the only inhabitable planet we have. quote:
Otherwise the only way to confront this "issue" is we kill half the population and the living must live in the forest, in caves and in tents.??? Who says? Seriously, where did you get this? quote:
If, btw, global warming is as bad as it is and compares to the warming of the earth in the medieval times, why were there NO major impacts on human population at that time? Because their warming period did not compare with ours today. Btw, global warming is measured by geologic and meteoroligic impact, not self-inflicted human inconvenience or hardship. quote:
No major ice melts covering over vast amount of land? Melting glaciers, melting of snows in areas-- such as the Alps-- where year-round snowpack used to be the norm, but is no longer, expansion of deserts, and volatile weather patterns all indicate the inevitible. quote:
Would you not agree that there were much larger areas of ice during the ice age? What happened to all of that melted ice? Where did it go? . . . To the oceans. Btw, the rushing waters caused a great deal of calamity at the time. quote:
If then the ice caps melt, which I seriously doubt they will completely disappear, so even if half of the ice caps "melt" is that not less ice than appeared during the ice age? What does it matter. This isn't about ice, rather it is about worldwide alterations in weather patterns and natural biomes. quote:
I think all the ice age left us was the "great lakes" between America and Canada and some nice smaller lakes and mountain ranges. So? We are not debating the last ice age. quote:
So going back to living in tents. Go "back" to living in tents? When did we ever live in tents? quote:
But we don't have the ability to recreate uncertain weather patterns well enough to legitimately study the effects of co2 in the atmosphere. Wrong. You are very, very mistaken here. quote:
Therefore there is no real ability to know what the effects are going to be long term. But we can see what is happening right here and now, if we don't stop up our ears and cover our eyes while bellaring "Don't Worry, Be Happy" to the tops of our lungs. quote:
It is not my intent to be offensive, but only to discuss the realities of the effects of the so called global warming. You use nothing but inflammatory hyperbole to make useless points, and now you are apologizing by saying that you are just having a discussion? Apology not accepted.

I am not Al Gore. I do not speak for him, and he does not speak for me. Therefore, if someone disagrees with Al Gore, they are disagreeing with him, not me.

But what you implied was that just because they disagree with him, they are not dealing with the scientific issues. quote:
It's called hypocrisy. If I criticize you for being the same way that I am, then I am actually criticizing myself, am I not? It's merely stating the facts. There is also nothing wrong with Al Gore's supporters pointing out what Al Gore critics don't have credentials. This is something that the public should know and stating such facts is not unethical from either side of the debate. quote:
So, I can be fair about this topic because I have been on both sides of the fence. Implying that just because someone disagrees with you they are not dealing with the issue is not fair. quote:
quote:
No, that's not what I said. I said it's unfair for you to suggest that just because someone disagrees with you, they are not dealing with the scientific merits of the subject. But I have not done this, so you can let it go now. You said, " Conservative websites disagree with Al Gore; therefore, they need not deal with the scientific merits of global warming. Instead they seek only to discredit Al Gore." You also said, " . . . On conservative sites whose agenda was not to examine the evidence fairly, but to dogmatically counter global warming with, "See? There is no such thing."" It is what you did. Your quotes suggest that just because they disagree with you, they are not dealing with the issues scientifically. You also said, "No, I'm sorry but a conservative agenda wants people to accept only one side: the conservative meme." In other words, you are saying that conservatives aren't interested in the scientific issues, but they are only interested in getting people to accept, "the conservative meme." Once again, you are being unfair to the conservative side.

I do not see how someone disagreeing with the notion that man made global warming is a reality means they are reluctant to recycle and reduce pollutants. I am not saying global warming is real or not (I do not know), I just don't think that simply disagreeing with global warming means they are reluctant to take care of the environment.

So, their opinion means very little if they are not experts in the fields of geology and climatology: "When questioned in 1998, OISM's Arthur Robinson admitted that only 2,100 signers of the Oregon Petition had identified themselves as physicists, geophysicists, climatologists, or meteorologists, 'and of those the greatest number are physicists.' This grouping of fields concealed the fact that only a few dozen, at most, of the signatories were drawn from the core disciplines of climate science - such as meteorology, oceanography, and glaciology - and almost none were climate specialists." source Dr. Arthur Robinson has himself proved to be of questionable credibility on the subject. Btw, the OISM is chiefly dedicated to this: "Research in the Institute's laboratories includes work in protein biochemistry, diagnostic medicine, nutrition, preventive medicine, and aging." How does this qualify them as credible experts on global warming, and whatever became of their ten year old "petition?"

Study says global warming not worsening hurricanes By SETH BORENSTEIN, AP Science Writer 1 hour, 39 minutes ago WASHINGTON - Global warming isn't to blame for the recent jump in hurricanes in the Atlantic, concludes a study by a prominent federal scientist whose position has shifted on the subject. Not only that, warmer temperatures will actually reduce the number of hurricanes in the Atlantic and those making landfall, research meteorologist Tom Knutson reported in a study released Sunday.

I'm not star-struck by a bunch of Hollywood celebrities and Al Gore with a bunch of scientists that don't know how to put forth scientific data in a web-site.
