[quote] the problem. We have already seen one revision of the temperature that declared the "warmest" years on record (revised to 1934). And that is just in the last 100 years. Again, we look at your chart and while of course the swings look dramatic, it is only dramatic when you ignore the scale. Then they are insignificant. And the final truth is the chart is just a guess for temperatures before 1900 because man had no accurate way (and definitely no way to measure fractions of degrees) pr

[quote]Wow, you really are a stupid shit aren't you? You're trying to compare the laws and theories of physics with this bullshit idea of man-made global warming? Your arguments get dumber and dumber all the time.You can try to toss out as many stupid insults and bullshit comparisons as you like but the idea, not even a legitimate theory just an idea, of man-made global warming doesn't even qualify as a scientific theory.If you truly understood the concepts of physics you'd understand just how s

[quote]I never said that we have to live in darkness and reject lights of technology we made.And again, can you please at least try to pretend to read the article first I mentioned?No, what you're seeing is the eyeroll of someone who's tired of the "never quite good enough" attitude of the "greener than thou" club. And my response was a logical extension of the premise. Incandescents = bad, CFL's = bad, fire = VERY BAD, you're not leaving us with a lot of options to satisfy your "green" requirem

[quote]Wow, you provide a link to a chart that you don't even seem to be able to read. That chart clearly shows a 1,000 year history of temps going up and down, just like they are supposed to do. Yes, it does show an slight increase in the 20th century over some previous peaks, but it's hardly significant when compared to even older temperature periods where the planet was much, much warmer than it is now. Oh, and there were no cars or factories during those times. [/quote] You misread

[quote] Wrong. The average global temperature is not constantly doing anything and certainly not constantly rising. Some years it's a tad higher, some years a tad lower. Over a 100 year period (which in global terms is a very, very small data set) the overall average global temperature appears to have risen about one degree.Remember, it's one degree over 100 years. That's not any sort of constant rise in anything, it's a mathematical average over a relatively short period of time. hardly the end

Ah, are we looking at same graph? http://www.pmodwrc.ch/tsi/composite/pics/org_comp2_d41_61_0804.png I just cannot find this table showing that solar irradiance increasing since 1978. Only thing I see is that this changes year and year, while the temperature is constantly only increasing, not following the graph above. Granted. But if so, there are tons of people with B.S degree which dwarf the number of people ever signed on this petition. I seriously do not

@ Dr Guy : Yes, I always reminds myself "Wikipedia is a opinion, not a fact." But this is not a case and you can find the actual trustable source of those pictures. @ MasonM : After wrote that post, I actually searched more. And there are what I found: 1) The temperature of mars has been increased according to the data you mentioned. 2) But our sun has not changed since 1978, no change of any really.

Wooo, OK. Since I am not really interested in Politics.... Sorry for my ignorance, but why he is Republican In Name Only? Well, was he elected by all of those election things going on since last year? You know, he is 'elected' by Republicans according to my knowledge. What's the problem with him?

Well then, where is the actual data that most of our planets' temperatures has been increased since 20th century? I'd like to see it. What I found was the table of data that solar energy has been increased, but not actual temperatures of other planets. And before that, you should not say they are 'directly related' Because it is not true in some cases. For example, in Jupiter, Temperature changes are due to innate characteristics such as radioactivity. Plus : And here is anothe

[quote]For those who buy in to the man-made global warming idea, how do you explain the corresponding temperature changes on other planets in our solar system? Do we have people there driving around in SUVs of which I am not aware?Geologic and fossil evidence indicates clearly that the planet has gone through periods of warming and cooling in the past and is likely to do so in the future.

[quote] How do you know? At best, you are looking at a few years out of 100 years. OUt of the billions the earth has been around? Simply put, you dont know, and making a statement of fact like that is clearly closeminded. The temperature has not risen in the last 10 years, and actually declined last year. Are we to extrapolate from that one year that we are headed for an ice age? Apparently from the "scientific" method in use by the global warming crowd we must. Yet that is akin to taking

*Brinks on some of comments. Calm down guys. I am not going to say that all people who drive SUVs should be burned in hell. I just want to point out that the temperature record clearly shows that the current rise of the temperature is not a normal at all. We just put polar bears as threatened species because the ice on the north is melting. Do you really need more evidence for rising temperature? On top of that, IPCC already declared that the cause of the

Well, I am not going to provide/aruge each specific scientific evidence, but it is already recognized by major international organizations such as U.N if you ask me. We are already suffering from global warming (New Orleans, for instance.) and all three major candidates in this election made global warming as one of major issues here. One thing I dislike is that if we really work on something about global warming, ALL of nations need to do same thing. It is not fair to U.S to p
