TheCorinthian Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/02/03/worsening-winters-come-global-warming/ If the planet is warming, why is a third of America locked in a deep freeze, with record-low temperatures as far south as the Mexican border, where the thermometer in Ciudad Juarez plummeted Wednesday night to a bone-chilling 9-below zero? Self-proclaimed planetary climate czar Al Gore thinks he has answer. That this idiot does not stay under his rock is hilarious. Hahahahahahaha!!!

Hugh_Hoy Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Maybe we should replace Ground Hog Day with Al Gore Day. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have seen, you are looking at the world from a narrow viewpoint. When you look at it from a larger viewpoint the evidence indicates the earth is slowly warming.

Flashermac Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Snow is simply frozen warmth. Just heat to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coss Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Nice idea, but actually, the lack of heat indicates a lack of entropy. More entropy = heat. Thereto, less heat = less entropy = cold. Upon which ice ages are built. Coss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Scrutinizer Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Losing the ice sheets, as we are now, very quickly, less sunlight gets reflected, heats the earth more, melts the ice quicker, vicious cycle. Warmer earth. But whether this is a man-made problem or just another natural cycle who knows. I suspect we are have a natural cycle that is having an exasperated effect from man made pollutants. Which is quickening/hastening the normal natural cycle. All this is effecting the weather patterns and creating dangerously unpredictable larger weather anomalies. Again, maybe it's mostly natural causes and cycles, but it is hard to believe that with all the shit we produce and dump into the air, seas, rivers, lakes, and ground that it is having no effect at all. Only a fool would think that we are having no effect on the environment over the past few hundred years. I'm talking not just pollutants, but cutting huge swathes of trees around the planet, and changing the face of nature itself which has protected us for so many generations.

Coss Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 "man-made problem or just another natural cycle " that's sort of the key even if it is warming is it natural ? or my fault ? I think we've got f*ck all to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 A while back, I saw a table of alleged global temperatures and CO2 levels, going WAY back into the prehistoric data. Being one of *THOSE* guys, I wrote a few lines of code for a scatter plot. The result looked pretty random to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 And if there is a correlation between global temperatures and CO2 levels, which causes which? If you raise the temperature of all the leaf litter in the world, will you get more CO2? Quite possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
