Google Earth shows just how bad it is

Frank -

You asked this question on another thread, and received an excellent reply - which you then ignored.

I say again - please show a little respect to those posters who come here to actually discuss the topic, and don't just swamp threads with off-topic bullshit. We both know your only purpose here is shut down the discussion.

Actually that's a lib trick.

He can always be ignored if all else fails.

Why do we use Argon gas as an insulator in windows, why not use CO2 and it's phenomenal heat trapping properties?

Because windows primarily lose heat by conduction, not by radiation, and argon has a low thermal conductivity compared to other gases.

Do try learning the basics. You're ignorant of the science and completely lack common sense, traits that most denialists share.

Clueless Frank -

It's been ongoing for the past 14,000 years

Um...not it hasn't. During much of the 19th century, glaciers were growing. They were growing as recently as the 1970s, bauble.

Even your own graph disproves your statement. Look at the trend from 1850 to 1900. That's not growing.

Also, how accurate were measurements of total glacial volume in 1850?

Was that supposed to scare me?

Yes. And obviously, world socialism is the only thing that can save us.

The Disturbing Truth That Can Only Be Seen Using Google Earth

Okay deniers, shove your heads even deeper in the sand.

I call bullshit. The first image, the deforestation, has nothing to do with climate change, obviously.

The other two images -- what proof is there that each frame was captured at the same time of year?

Hint: None. What they're showing may be only seasonal variations. And judging from the snow cover and color of the surrounding vegetation, may be only that.

But, hey -- don't let that stop you from immediately and unquestioningly believing it.

I went to a seminar on astrophysics at the University of Hawaii, and after listening to this PHD talk for an hour or so on the subject, he took questions and some of the students started making smart-Alec remarks about his findings.

Does being educated make one feel you have the right to be jack-asses on all occasions?

Frank -

No, I'm not surprised - melting glaciers are inevitable in a warming climate.

We know why glaciers melted in the past; we know why glaciers are melting now. Not difficult stuff, this.

And what's the solution being endorsed to stop glaciers melting?

World socialism.

yes, and if they are liberal they think it is their right and duty to be jerkoffs

No, it makes one feel he has the right to immediate and unquestioning acceptance and endorsement of everything he says.

No, but being _correct_ gives me the right to mock a bunch of crybaby political cultists.

Yes, I understand that the special little snowflakes of the right here think that all opinions are equally valid and thus all opinions deserve equal respect. Sadly for them, I don't hold to such PC garbage. You spout idiot propaganda, you're going to get mocked for it. Given how often it happens, you'd think you'd have learned to deal with it without the whining.

It's too dangerous to walk up to people and just demand money but if you said "Give us all your money, it's to save the earth" most people will comply willingly.

Global Warming is a brilliant scam.

World socialism.

And there you see it - the reason to deny climate change is not scientific -it's based on politics.

If only some of our other extremist posters could be as honest.

btw. Dave, last time I checked,the private companies who invent and sell tidal energy turbines are not socialist. They are more often conservatives like you - only smart.

I'm not denying the climate is changing, genius.

I'm denying man has as much impact as the faked AGW science claims.

And yes, AGW is based on politics. There's absolutely no question.

If only some of our other extremist posters could be as honest.

Extremist? Is that supposed to shame me into silence?

btw. Dave, last time I checked,the private companies who invent and sell tidal energy turbines are not socialist. They are more often conservatives like you - only smart.

Oh, yes, they're smart. They invent and sell technologies that are only economically viable with vast infusions of taxpayer money, taking advantage of dolts like you.

If there is no question that it is political, why is virtually every conservative government, every oil company, automotive company and every university in every conservative country backing it?

"Virtually".

Come back when you have hard numbers. Your wet dreams are less than compelling.

Don't worry smudley, the regional nuclear war we'll soon have will drop global temps by -2C so your polar bears will be OK.

Daveman -

If you can't answer the question - and we know that you cannot - then your fantasy story is just that.

I challenge you to answer it with something that you find credible.

You're really not very good at this, are you?

You claimed: "...virtually every conservative government, every oil company, automotive company and every university in every conservative country [is] backing it."

Prove it.

Go slowly, for my sake.

It sounds like Argon traps heat better than CO2, is that accurate?
