Perry says he doesn't believe in global warming

But somehow he believes that praying to the big man in the sky..it's gonna rain.

:lol:

It's funny that after that day it started to rain in parts of Texas.

This is the drought monitor from two days ago:

Perry's rain gods have a lot of work to do.

Were roasting over here.

Actually it's not. Since scientists opinions are based on actual research. His is based on ignorance.

Pointing to places where its warm for a day and going, "See that?! Do you see that?!! ManMade Global Warming!!" is neither research nor science

Yeah.

Like Tropical New York City.

It's like Rio De Janerio. Week long spells of 100 degree weather are normal here.

:lol:

In 1926 the record high in New York was 108.
 
There is not enough scientific evidence to call global warming a "theory".

It is just an "opinion" of some scientists.

Rick Perry is just giving his personal opinion.

His opinion is just as valid as their opinion.

Just a valid? Hardly. He's coming at the problem from a totally political perspective. This is a scientific question. All he's doing is giving China and India permission to keep thumbing their noses at doing their part.
 
GOP presidential candidate Rick Perry told New Hampshire voters Wednesday that he does not believe in manmade global warming, calling it a scientific theory that has not been proven.

But Perry's opinion runs counter to the view held by an overwhelming majority of scientists that pollution released from the burning of fossil fuels is heating up the planet.

Perry's home state of Texas releases more heat-trapping pollution carbon dioxide — the chief greenhouse gas — than any other state in the country, according to government data.

This has nothing to do with the economy or jobs.

Unless you are talking about dumping more money into the green money pit, this is an utterly useless subject for the upcoming elections.

I doubt that China or India give a rats behind as to what we think.

Nor do they seek America's permission to do anything they want in their country.

It has everything to do with the economy and jobs.


The Chinese government spent $34.6 billion last year to propel its low-carbon economy, more than any other nation and almost double what the U.S. invested. The country is now headquarters for six of the biggest renewable energy employers—up from three in 2008—according to Clean Tech Job Trends 2009.
China winning race for green jobs

Donald Gilligan, president of the National Association of Energy Service Companies (NAESCO), cited estimates that improvements in energy efficiency alone have met over 50 percent of the increase in U.S. energy demand since 1980. Much of this improvement has resulted from mandates and guidance provided by Congress and by state and federal agencies, including funding for technological innovation programs and the adoption of new rules promoting performance-based energy service contracting, appliance and equipment standards, and revised building codes.

These government directives, together with direct investments by private-sector energy providers, have supported the growth in both energy-efficiency resources and green jobs in the United States. In a recent survey, the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory estimated that energy service companies provide about $4 billion in annual energy-efficiency investment nationwide, 25 to 30 percent of which is spent on labor to design, install, operate, and maintain comprehensive energy-efficiency projects in a wide range of building sectors.

That's the problem, though. We have people like you, Perry and a lot of others climbing into bed with them by denying that humans can effect the climate, especially if current emission rates continue.
 
I farted and the market crashed. :redface:

What are you ten?

Just trying to use logic you're likely to understand. It makes as much sense as, "It's funny that after that day it started to rain in parts of Texas".

You wouldn't know logic it if it slapped you in your pudgy face.

Fact is it rained in Texas after the call for prayer, the wildfires were able to be controlled and ultimately extinguished. Now you can say one had nothing to do with the other, but the fact remains.

If that were the case then every scientist would agree there is man made global warming. BUt they dont.

So if something isn't agreed upon by 100% of the population then it must not be true? Is that what you're going with?

China?

so should we respond like china?

If so, the only way to do that is to become a form of centralised tryanny where we lose most of our rights.

Smart man.
 

Good for Perry. I like him more and more.
"The overwhelming majority of scientists" is not how science is established. Science is established by irrefutable proof consisting of testable theories.
So far no one has shown that:
-Global warming is occurring.
-That is't a bad thing if is it
-That it is man made
-That instituting the kinds of controls proposed will actually change it.

So why should we be called on to spend hundreds of billions of dollars essentially for nothing?

Perry's a flake. Get over it.

Global warming scientists and gore are flakes, get over it. Perry is correct.

Doesn't mean prayer caused it anymore tham my fart caused the market to crash. Just using the analogy to bring into full focus the fact that your logic isn't logical as you think it is. Sure it was a sophomoric, but it caught your attention, didn't it? :cool:

Yes children behaving rudely usually catches my attention.
