Global warming is not a myth. People that deny global warming are no better than holocaust deniers. IT's obvious, Bruce Springsteen's book, "Tens of Billions of Lies," should be required READING!!!!
I earnestly trust that you are being facetious.
WHAT ABOUT THE KYOTO TREATY!!!!!!!? WHAT ABOUT EQUALITY AND HUMANITIES GRANTS FOR THE 27,056 LATINO VEGANS WHO ARE DEFORESTED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE EVERY SINGLE DAY BY OUR EMPEROR AND HIS PLATOON OF ANTIABORTION STOOGES!!!
NEEDLESS TO SAY, KARL ROVE IS A TOOL OF THE YACHT INDUSTRY!!

At this point safely facetious.
Unlike you and Laura Bush I am not in love with Imperialism. We need to stop eating meat to save the planet! It's a proven scientific fact that cows cause global warming and we must Act Now! to stop it!
Heed Al Gore's advice! Watch his movie! Repent our sins or the end is near!
For crying out loud it's open season on rainforests.
If I'm not mistaken, the only rainforest in the United States is a pretty small chunk of land on the Olympic Peninsula (near Seattle). It's within a national park and is protected from commercial uses.
How many of the members of the IPCC are climatologists vs. some other specialty?
No, I asked one. That is the reason for the little (?) thing at the end.
No, it was the inability to produce the quantity and quality of grapes necessary to produce wines that would not make you gag.
When the Romans finally left, winemaking stayed. The Venerable Bede mentioned vineyards in his Ecclesiastical History of the English Nation, written in 731
.Many wineries during the middle ages were located in monasteries. This may have been because wine was an integral part of Catholic ceremony. However, wine wasn't just a religious drink. In the medieval era, it was a common social drink for all classes, particularly in the South of England, and it was common for the wealthy to have their own vineyards
By 1491, there were about 139 large vineyards in England. Many of these were owned by the church, but a significant number were owned by the crown and various noble families. It's clear that by this time wine was firmly established in England.
I think the web site went over this ground very well. The signers of the petition are in scientific or engineering fields and are well versed in the scientific method.
There are climate scientist who do not subscribe to the man made global warming hoax. And it is a hoax. I base my knowledge in the life time of reading everything I can. I have found some of the most useful knowledge comes from completely unrelated sources. Like the Nenana ice classic. Like the story I read years ago about how Greenland got it's name.
Are you not some sort of geologist or am I confusing you with some-one else on this board. I would be willing to bet you could build a plane because I am sure you can read and do some math. I am sure any-one who can read can come to a conclusion on MMGW.
Sadly, too many people are believing in the MMGW hoax.
Global warming is not man made. It is part of a cycle. The planet gets warmer. It gets cooler. This ball of mud and water has been much much warmer and much much cooler in times past. In the short geological history that modern man has been on this planet, we've had what? An ice age, a mini ice age and during the Renaissance the temperature was an average of 5 degrees warmer than it is now. In fact the Renaissance is when human populations exploded on this planet. If I had a choice between global warming and global cooling, I'd pick global warming.
Ok, so I've heard we've experienced a 10th of a degree change in temperature, 3/10ths of a degree change in temperature and 7/10ths of a degree change in temperature. As far as what I know, I'd go with the 3/10ths of a degree change. Let's just assume for the sake of argument, that global warming is man made. (Now in no way is this an admission that global warming is man made. I said we are assuming. And don't give me any of that garbage of, "You know what you do when you assume.") So what do we do to drop the average temperature by 3/10ths of a degree? How many trillions of dollars do we spend dropping the temperature that 3/10ths of a degree? How far back into the dark ages are you willing to go? More importantly, how much power are you willing to give to government over your life for 3/10ths of a degree change? And a change in average temperature that's really not an average temperature at all. It's an average temperature since records have been kept. But for how many millinia were the temperatures on the Earth virtually unknown?
