  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Beware Global Warming!

Beware global warming!


3:45-3:51 is especially creepy! :eek:
What your experiencing is indeed predicted in the model of climate change. Some areas will experience, and continue to experience year on year, record high temperatures - and record low temperatures. Both are true and both are happening. You've just shown the evidence of it.

In addition, just as the modelling predicts, observe the shrinking polar caps, the glacial reductions in areas of Nepal, New Zealand Sth America, and the record levels of climatic violence - these are all predicted and have been published for a decade or more.

I think you're saying in your post that because its a record low in your country its disproving the climate change theory - the contrary is actually true. And Im sorry AVet if Im misinterpreting what youre saying in your post. If you would like I am happy to post to your inbox a researched based synopsis how CO2 relates to these weather events and the predictive modelling.

This is our hottest January. Although we live closer to the equator, our January is normaly around 60's.

Now, we have over 90 F. Hot like summer. This very rarely happens and honestly, couldn't remember any instance the whole 36 years of my life.

Weather man says due to different air current patterns and cold air from the north isn't reaching us. Definitely climate change.

I'm aware other parts of the world is in blizzard so it's strange. We could use a little of that cold... All days we had the last several months until today was unbearably hot.

Learn the science (reality) so you stop making embarrasing posts like this one.
What science specifically?

Chemistry? nuclear physics? climatology? meteorology? all the above?

Do I need to set up an appointment with a finance officer at our local college?

Do I need to buy three or four three-or-four hundred dollar college books?

Just so I won't be embarrassed?

And by the time I finish the course, will scientists have discovered all these earthquakes are because we're drilling for oil, and now it's back to school?

And what happens if I flunk out of chemistry, nuclear physics, climatology, meteorology, and all the above?

Can I continue making embarrassing threads without feeling guilty?

In any event, your remark is too vague.

What science specifically do you want me to learn?

Or do you even know?

This is our hottest January.
Well SOME January has to have that distinction.

Earth has had just a little over 6000 January's.

One of them is the coldest, and one of them is the hottest.

And before I cater to science's scareware, I'll give it a few years.

If the LORD doesn't come first.

Ingorance is not a bliss.

I dont care what you learn or not learn but I will call you on your ignorant posts.

Suit yourself.

Anyone can criticize.

Make a recommendation -- and be specific.

Like I told our resident professor of literature:

Quit cursing the dark and light a candle.

Meanwhile in Sydney ,Australia, on Sunday, the temperature reached a record of 47.3 degrees Celsius (around 117 degrees Fahrenheit). This is the highest temp ever recorded in Sydney.

On the day, Sydney was the hottest recorded place in the world.

I live a few hours north, i.e. closer to the equator.

Summer should be interesting.:cool:

As I said, so shall I repeat:

We've had just over 6000 January's.

One of them has to carry the distinction of being the hottest; and one of them has to carry the distinction of being the coldest.

Funny how the hottest records keep being broken more and more often.

Well maybe if we take the labels off of plastic jugs, take the caps off them, and put out three different trash bags (labels, caps, jugs), instead of just one trash bag, the polar caps will start growing again, eh?

Or at least fewer wild animals would die.

Maybe. But then you'd have to know where plastics come from and how polymer science works. I'm guessing that is a mystery of the cosmos to you.

SUCH DEPTH! It is like gazing into a fractal and seeing levels upon levels upon levels of...well...something.
