Yeah none of that warming was caused by man either, crazy! But Global Warming Alarmists will have some sort of excuse to support their claims because they think it matters one way or the other.
You must then believe whatever CrusaderFrank says. But in THIS instance, he has not told you what to believe. He asked a question. Since YOU are obviously of no help, let me take a crack at this one. Let's see. Long before any industrial revolution or "man made greenhouse gas house production," massive naturally occurring Ice Sheets came down all the way into the Northern portions of what is now the lower 48 States. And they receded. (GLOBAL WARMING!!!!!), before humans produced any appreciable alleged "greenhouse gasses." And then the Ice sheets RETURNED. But then (again WELL beore human kind industrialization) they receded again (GLOBAL WARMING!!!!) This suggests that JUST MAYBE, human kind doesn't cause Ice Sheets to spread southward NOR does human kind cause the Ice Sheets to recede (GLOBAL WARMING!!!) MAYBE we should be considering causes for this NATURALLY OCCURRING PROCESS OTHER THAN "human industrial greenhouse gas production."
My point is valid and more useful than yours, you think you change the mind of a moron? You think your post is going to educate and change someones mind. Do you actually believe your responding to a serious post. People need to realize some people will never understand and are easily manipulated by newspaper headlines. They are morons.
All this really shows is Man is not the Sole cause. It does not rule out that our contributions speed up the process.
Yes, folks we all know that there are natural changes in the earth's temperature over time - usually in periods ranging from between one thousand to ten thousand years. Giving time for primitives to migrate. One probable cause for the 10 thousand year cycles in the natural undulation of earth's orbit. We also know that a moderate amount of global warming is more likely to have a positive effect on the environment - more arable land. Furthermore, we know that even small global cooling has caused extreme negative effects on civilizations - see the history channel documentary on 'The little Ice Age'. However, 'Global Warming' caused by carbon emmissions is a very different thing: First - It is measurable, predictable and if it weren't for the idiots that deny it, it would be controllable. Second - As it is measureable and predictable, it is known that it will avalanche into a very rapid and beyond critical environmental disaster - meaning that millions of people are likely to die and that civilzation will not be able to respond fast enough. Look, global warming does not just mean a rise in the sea levels. As the atmosphere warms it's capacity to hold water will increase. That means more frequent and more intense violent storms - we'll see catagory 6,7 and 8 hurricanes. They'll be hellatious in-land flooding. Lush tropical and sub-tropical lands will turn to deserts. Of course there is a bright side - the Canadians and Russians are already talking about the new economic trade zone that will open up where the Arctic ice once was. But, come on, tell me the truth - this is all a vast right wing conspiracy to accelerate global warming while ya all buy up Arctic front land up in Canada, right?
