a. There is more CO2 in the atmosphere than at any time in the past 650,000 years. Damn, I wonder who put it there.

b. It has been known for decades that excess CO2 in the atmosphere will raise the earth's temperature.

c. Pictures of the snow cap in upper Canada and Greenland show black pollution deposits on the snow. Since black attracts the suns ray it accelerates the melting of the snow.

d. 2014, 2015, 2016 were the warmest years on earth since records were kept.

e. The oceans are becoming more acidic with the resulting coral bleaching. Global warming is happening so fast that marine life will not have the time to adapt to the new normal.;

f. The oceans are rising measurably imperilling many of our largest population centers which are also our main economic hubs. This puts hundreds of millions at risk.

Note: Please have your 10 year old explain this to you.

It may turn out to be that way, and if science were an election it would already be.

But, just a century ago, most genetics experts in Russia concurred with Lysenko, and they were all wrong.

Why did Copernicus publish on his deathbed? Because he was right and the majority of scientists thought they knew what was true but they didn't.

So who took the CO2 measurements 650,000 years ago? Were their instruments appropriately calibrated? I don't recall reading any scientific articles from that time period on that topic. Please share a link, thanks in advance, I'm intrigued.

For years, scientists have been taking core samples of the Antarctic ice and analysing the air trapped in the ice. This gives an accurate picture of what happened to the climate in the past.

Actually over the last million years ice has melted, shifted and even moved thousands of miles tumbling as it moved, any attempt to try and capture 650,000 year old air in that ice is just a wild ass guess of what period it's from. Plus does CO2 really have a 600,000 year shelf life? Plus there has been so much manipulation of data it's really hard to know what to believe. Hopefully our President will take agenda, media, greed and politics out of scientific research and we get some factual data supported by real science.

Don't worry....like it had done countless times since the beginning...
the planet will extinguiah all life.... and save itself...
then new life...and the bullshit starts all over again.... :lol:

Yep, there will a new human race 600,000 years from now and some will figure out a sure way to rake in the money is claim the planet is warming and unless everyone gives into their demands the planet will die along with everyone on it within years. Air taken from ice ( :lol: ) will show CO2 levels have never been that high in testing going back 600,000 years, Dig deep into your pockets NOWWWWW or you will die.

According to Justme all of the data has been falsified...

All of those satelite images

Thermometer readings

CO2 readings

So much so that Trump will be shutting down his government website!!!

Elk, so what's wrong with taking agenda, media, greed and politics out of scientific research and getting factual data supported by "real" science? What does the left have against vetting information that they "want" to believe?

WOW....It doesn't take a fucking rocket scientist to read the temperature on a thermometer? I think even you can do it, Justme!!!

If Al Gore will send me 100 million USD, I am prepared to join his side of the argument.

Until then, Gore will remain the "C" student in media studies who cashed in on a trend.

Remember when Gore was raving about his ozone hole a few years ago? He even located it, right above Kennebunkport, Maine. We were all going to die from terminal sunburn as a result of using aerosol spray deodorant.
Seems the chlorine gas in the freon is to blame. Then someone pointed out that one volcanic eruption spews many, many millions of tons of chlorine gas into the upper atmosphere, much more than man has ever created. And volcanos have been erupting since the planet was created.

OOPSIES!

A further effect of this hysteria was banning R12 freon. Which meant refrigeration equipment in third world countries was useless as soon as it needed maintenance. This goes along with the millions that have died in these countries of yellow fever and other mosquito borne diseases as a result of banning DDT.

Lord, spare me from the tender mercies of a liberal with good intentions.

And where the hell is the ice age that was supposed to have killed us all by now?

Never happened, you lying scumbag.
OOPSIES! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You can't just make up stupid shit and pretend it's real. There's this thing called "the internet" that has records of all the stuff that people say, and Gore never said any such thing.
And neither did any other environmentalists either.

Furthermore, Loser Boy Insipid shows us his general ignorance of yet another physical environmental phenomenon by not understanding that the Ozone hole is cyclical and develops from August through November or December each year because of the tilt of the Earth and increased sunlight in the southern hemisphere.
Regardless, the thickness of the Ozone layer is still at decades lows, even during the portion of the year when there is no hole, but dimwitted lying douchebags like Insipid don't understand the importance of that fact.

"And where the hell is the ice age that was supposed to have killed us all by now?"-LoserBoytInsipid

It's in your head, dummy, like the rest of your partisan ignorance. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


Now dance for us some more with more ranting and drooling of faulty partisan talking points and lies, Loser Boy.
Make an even bigger liar of yourself. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

In an odd twist of fate, Clowntoker's own rowboat -- the one with the faded, cracked, peeling paint -- happens to be named "Partisan Ignorance."

You can read Clown's entire post above.....but this part struck me quite funny....

"... There's this thing called "the internet" that has records of all the stuff that people say, and Gore never said any such thing.

Goes to show Clown is so easy to fuck with... :lol: :lol: :o :lol:

That "Internet" thing sounds interesting.

I met this gal today who resembles Barbara Britton in the 1940s, but she had never heard of her, so she could probably watch those vintage flicks on this "Internet" thingie.

I think we can all agree greed and politics needs to be taken out of scientific reports. I'm sure there are scientists that read reports prepared by their handlers and say "That's not my findings at all"

What Pope mean was a little knowledge could be dangerous, but he goes on to stay drink deep.

Al Gore isn't a scientist, nor were the Obamas or Clintons.

They had no more idea that all of us here what the scientific "truth" was, or is, about man-caused global warming.

It is dangerous when one political party, whatever it is, takes ownership of some scientific theory, and that has happened now with the Left and anthropogenic global warming.
