How is it that every day, we humans burn hundreds of millions of pounds of carbon, in the form of oil and coal, and put that into the atmosphere.
How could all that carbon not have an effect?
Evidentally sciencetists can figure out the percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmospheres of thousands of years ago by using ice core samples. The percentage of carbon has varied over the course of time. At present, the carbon is at a level not seen since the dinasours. When we had all those active volcanos. And we were not burning all that gas and coal.
Wonder what that means.
look it works like this, lets put it into simple terms since none of is a science goo roo. ok. if you feel something is wrong and you go to 100 doctors, 99 of them tell you here is whats wrong and here is how you cure it, then the 1 doctor says something different, are you going to go with the 99 or 1. cause that is the the divide in the scientific community, and not just the US but the world. its not even something they debate anymore. also, and I know this gives to the point that it MIGHT be happening, which is wrong, it is BUT.......
option 1. we spend all this money and nothing is wrong and nothing happens. outcome, we waisted money
option 2. something IS wrong and we do nothing, civilization as we know it ends. outcome we didnt do anything and shit hits the fan
Now I see all the cons on this tread say about the sandy post, Why trust the government to save you, you should have prepaired for sandy, battires/sandwitches what have you. well when stuff keeps getting wrose ALL anound the world. why should we not prepair?
Go find me the 99 out of 100 Scientists that say civilization will end if we don't do anything.
Cite actual research.

The extinction of the dinosaurs was 65 million years ago. CO2 concentrations were at current levels 15 million years ago.
Last time carbon dioxide levels were this high: 15 million years ago, scientists report / UCLA Newsroom
Also, temperatures were higher than today and sea levels where higher than today. So why is that if increased CO2 causes increased temperature which causes increased sea levels?
Also how is the current increase in CO2 man made but previous increases weren't?

Maybe Al Gore was right.

I was thinking about this today as the Lib media and Chris Mathews in particular
was bringing this up.
Haven't we improved on car emissions and oil plant and coal plants.
Haven't we added nuclear power plants over the last 50 years.
Now we are getting big storms...What we never had big storms before?..
So we have improved what we dump in the air and now we get big storms...
And it's all our fault.
Only Obama can save us from ourselves...
Improving emissions standards isn't nearly enough to stop what's been started.
Maybe Al Gore was right.

The combination of willful ignorance, ignorance in general and denial are hallmarks of the conservative sheep. The argument that human activity can impact the environment and climate is clear, only those who have been feed the kool-aid by Big Coal and Big Oil believe otherwise.
Even if only 1% of the changes in sea ice and ocean temperatures are man caused, the need to repair, build and protect our coastal areas is obvious to anyone listening and not mentally impaired.

china is the ultimate in left-wing extremism.
100% trust in government. 100% government control. 100% government power over the individual. 100% regulation of 100% of commerce.
Zero freedom.
Maybe Al Gore was right.
Why Because of Hurricane sandy?
I suggest you do some Research on the Weather Patterns and specifically how many, and where Hurricanes hit in the Late 1950's
But our own hurricane history is more tumultuous than many New Yorkers might think. In 1821, when a major hurricane made a direct hit on Manhattan, stunned residents recorded sea levels rising as fast as thirteen feet in a single hour down where theres now Battery Park City. Everything was flooded south of Canal Street. The storm struck at low tide, though, and, according to Queens College professor Nicholas Coch, a coastal geologist who calls himself a forensic hurricanologist, thats the only thing that saved the city.
Then theres Hog Island. The pig-shaped mile-long barrier island was off the southern coast of the Rockaways. After the Civil War, developers built saloons and bathhouses on it, and Hog Island became a Gilded Age version of the Hamptons. The citys political bosses and business elite used the place as a kind of beachy annex of Tammany Hall. That all ended on the night of August 23, 1893, when a terrifying Category 2 hurricane made landfall on the swamp that is now JFK airport.
Read James Hansen's book, "Storms of my Grandchildren."
Why? He's no prophet.
I beg to differ. He was one of the earliest persons to warn about climate change. In the late 70's, he was involved in research on the climate on Venus as well as being involved in the Pioneer Venus project which was launched in 1978. In the late 70's, before climate change/global warming was even on the map of popular consciousness, Hansen changed his focus to Earth's climate. He was WAY ahead of the curve. That's pretty damn close to being a modern day prophet.
