It's not that simple to point out a trend in weather for a year or so. In the 70s, they thought the ice age was coming...today, global warming.
Gore plugged this and made a shit ton of cash. It's just another way for the government to pass more laws to increase taxing. The environmental war cry is by far the most ridiculous out there. Humans thinking their the center of the universe...once again. :D

I think the actual figure is something like +1 degree give or take in over a hundred years for the global average.
If you ask me, that's pretty friggin stable.

Who cares we will all be dead. No one else is going to do anything about it so why bother. Nothing any of us can do will change the inevitable. Caring about global warming is kind of like a left-wing version of pascal's wager.

Oh my God, it snowed in California? Global Warming is a hoax after all. Fucking retards.

Well since they don't explore space pretty much at all, they have to study something.
And if they said Climate Change was a hoax, what would we need to fund NASA for?
So it just might be job security to study Climate Change rather than debunk it.
-
To those that believed in first, "Global Warming" and now in "Climate Change", I would say as I do to any others with a faith in something.
Live it.
Give up your modern conveniences and live off the land. No electricity. No HVAC. No vehicles save those powered by your sweat and made by your own hand out of naturally occurring materials.
And as so often is the case with others of faith, I would ask that you not dare share your "faith" with me (or anyone else for that matter) in any way. Just live it completely and quietly.
Kinda like the Amish, only even more primitive. I wont tell you how to live your life and you can go about your business and not force your faith upon me and mine. Or anyone else for that matter.
Like that's gonna happen.
People only demand equality with those they envy. The reality of it is this. They just want to drag everyone down to their level of misery and then climb over them.
In this case, it's to turn on the AC they've earned with their carbon credits. What a bunch of 'tards. Dangerous 'tards.

I'm religious, believe in global warming, am currently hiding a tooth under my pillow, and stocking up on cookies for Santa. It will be a good year.

Most people have concern for the welfare of their children, grandchildren etc.
Is that so pointless?
-

Of course I do but I can't predict what is going to happen a year from now let alone 600 years. What I can do is secure wealth and other resources for myself and my children. Who knows what will happen to my family line when I'm gone but statistically the least of their concerns is global warming. It's also pointless because nothing we do in the United States will offset the activities of China and the developing world.
-

Yes. That is pointless.
Humans will do themselves in far before the planet will ever have a chance to rid this waste.
We will exterminate ourselves within 500 years. The US will probably be at the forefront claiming we're in danger of some made up threat, then other countries will join in. We'll probably blame a bearded guy in a cave again.
-

Couldn't disagree more.
Technology can solve this issue. We need changes in energy storage and utilization, some quantum leaps. There is no need to be raping the earth as we are, we can solve this issue, it has to come top down however.

You must be right up on climate science, 500 years we will be starving and dying in a drought filled, empty ocean world.
The funny thing is humans do think they are the center of the universe, ie I will do what I can for mine etc.. fuck the planet we live on.

I'm not saying we shouldn't work toward better sources of energy or that be should we as environmentally irresponsible as possible . What I'm saying is that China and the developing world aren't going to change their behavior regardless of how we behave. Whatever new technology that is developed will only come to fruition when the market demands it. The developing world won't adopt that technology for a long time because fossil fuels and older methods of production will always be cheaper.

Obama has secured climate concessions from China and India as part of those UN talks. A similar deal with Canada could help offset the anticipated environmental damage from the TransCanada Corp. pipeline, responding to project opponents.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-25/u-s-said-to-tell-canada-its-climate-goal-may-play-keystone-role
What do you think about this?
First off, Obama did not secure any concessions from China. China said they would cut emissions starting in 2030 but that there is really nothing keeping them from holding that promise fifteen years from now particularly when they have to answer to their own internal interests.
Even if the central government had an all-consuming drive to achieve this, economists say it must provide the proper economic incentives to local bureaucrats who are pivotal to executing policies on the ground.
“The feasibility of doing [this] depends on the local bureaucrats, so if the local bureaucrats resist then nothing can be done,” Xu Chenggang, professor who is a specialist in China’s economic development at the University of Hong Kong, tells TIME. “[It doesn’t] matter how strong the leader is, to get things done really depends on incentives.”
Xu explains that China’s three decades of robust economic expansion were only possible because local officials were able to profit from the country’s rapid transformation into an industrial powerhouse. However, questions remain over whether there will be as much money to go around during a transition to a greener economy.
“In turns out it’s very, very difficult to find a scheme which is going to give local bureaucrats sufficient incentives to take care of their environment,” says Xu.
And even then, activists say the world’s two largest emitters of CO2 have yet to commit to the types of policies needed to reverse the effects of climate change.

I should have said the Chinese aren't necessarily cutting their emissions but keeping them at the same level as 2005 after 2030. China is allowed to increase emissions significantly until 2030 and then hopefully they will bring the levels down to 2005 levels. It's a shit deal that will benefit the Chinese.

The government loves to create a problem, then offer the solution.

In principle and in fact the US can dictate emissions policy (and pretty much anything else) if it wants to.
Far from a pointless scenario!

Your comfort with predicting the future aligns with your ideological baggage.

Your comfort with being wrong aligns with your ideological bias. China is allowed to greatly increase their emissions for the next fifteen. After that fifteen years is up, China may bring their emissions down to the already high 2005 levels.
-
I hope it's real. It better be worth it.
Don't matter if it's real or not, you gonna pay for it either way. A blanket of taxes and more control. To make everything more expensive and lower your living standards.
Might as well be real.

right the passive market concept.
China is a centralized economy so they don't have to make up these types of fairytales. They will mobilize their economy (If it hasn't already been put in motion) and own the technical solutions.
I guess the part where the market sorts it out is when they sell them to us later?

China has no incentive to change it's policy or to pursue technological changes when what they are doing right now is cheap and effective. There is zero incentive for China to pursue new technologies because they simply don't have to in order to be successful.

This is the key assumption that is false. It's no secret that the status quo over there cannot be maintained. In fact something pretty major needs to happen to simply maintain the economic trajectory. If it reduces the likelihood of human extinction even better.
-

The status quo can be maintained as long as it's profitable and it will remain profitable for decades. As the United States manufacturing slows to a halt China has even less competition to be concerned about. China has its fingers all over the globe and shows no signs of stopping and they will fuel that machine with fossil fuels. We haven't talk about India.

That's a reasonable argument. Decades is not that long and it's possible the world may not be destroyed in just a few decades. If you assume it's worth thinking that far ahead it's only natural to concern yourself with solutions.

I'm not going to worry about something that is beyond my control. Economic and governmental interests hold all the cards. I'm also not going to pin my hopes on future technologies there is no guarantee will come to fruition. Obama's deal with China was meaningless. It's not even binding. It makes great press but does not and makes no guarantees of future action.
-
I would also argue that if Africa ever begins to develop in any appreciable way the international community will not attempt to encourage restrictions on their energy consumption and carbon emissions. The reason will be humanitarian. It will be considered unfair. I doubt African's will on it's own but China has a strong presence in Africa.

You don't have to feel any particular way about it. At this point, it's the dishonesty that is the problem. Not everyone is concerned about this but it's very strange position. I saw somewhere that there exists an inverse relationship with economic status and level of concern for the environment. You must be doing pretty well!

It would be irrational to worry about something that is very low on my list of concerns. I choose to prioritize my concerns by order of importance and by my ability to effect it's outcome.
Dishonesty? How so? By the way, your response really has nothing to do with any of my points.

None of us have the power to "sort it out" You and I don't and the waning United States doesnt either. Implementation is far more important than feelings of responsibility. I can feel responsible all I want but that means nothing in terms of a viable solution. China, India and the rest of the developing world will decide whether its in their interest to do anything about the problem.

Looking around at the blank, listless, sheer stupidity of what passes for people these days I highly doubt it. So called adults allow their children to dress and speak like filth. If they cared then they wouldn't do the same, much less foster this behavior in their offspring.
Society's zeitgeist is to embrace ghetto filth, white trash and anything and everything associated with being worthless. So no, I would hazard that the majority of people have little if any concern for the welfare of their children, grand children, etc.
Except for their welfare checks, of course.

Yes, it is widespread across the spectrum of (again) what passes for humanity these days. I very much doubt we're destroying the planet.
But civilization? Damn right. And its not "we" that's destroying it. It's them. The worthless dregs of society. The human waste. Pond scum. The lazy. The politically correct.
I fail to see the difference in being told to save the planet and the chicken little reaction of the leftist libtards and how these same moral limbo arteests react to someone wanting to save their "soul". They want Christ out of their life (and that is just fine with me) but to Hades with anyone that refuses to kowtow to their filthy libtard ways and does not tow the line when it comes to the façade that is climate change, transgender BS and other tripe they want to foist on us.

How silly, you "doubt" we are destroying the planet? I can sleep soundly at night knowing you doubt a fact. We are destroying the planet, it couldn't be anymore obvious. The only place where this retarded denial exists is the states, due to propaganda and oil company rhetoric.
Your logic is very sound in the face of decades of data and meticulous study. Human is small, earth is big, how human hurt earth?

Most of the Mississippi River delta plain is losing ground, but new land is forming in Atchafalaya Bay at the mouths of the Wax Lake Outlet and the Atchafalaya River. Wax Lake Outlet is an artificial channel built to reduce the severity of floods in Morgan City, Louisiana. The Atchafalaya is a distributary of the Mississippi River. Combined, their deltas grow an estimated 2.8 square kilometers (1.1 square mile) per year. Floods transport large amounts of sediment to Atchafalaya Bay, while hurricanes redistribute sediment within the bay and destroy coastal vegetation that would otherwise protect land from erosion.

Of course global warming isn't happening.
It's not even in the Bible.

- Oil and coal contain hydrocarbons that when burned release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
- Incredible amounts of hydrocarbons that took hundreds of millions of years to deposit have been consumed in the 150 years since the beginning of the industrial revolution.
- We have dramatically increased the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere
- The only question is how much of an effect does all that extra CO2 have on climate. The answer from the experts is a lot.

How silly, you "doubt" we are destroying the planet? I can sleep soundly at night knowing you doubt a fact. We are destroying the planet, it couldn't be anymore obvious. The only place where this retarded denial exists is the states, due to propaganda and oil company rhetoric.
Your logic is very sound in the face of decades of data and meticulous study. Human is small, earth is big, how human hurt earth?
Get rid of your computer and any and all electrical conveniences now. No more vehicles powered by anything other than you. And you have to make them yourself from scratch.
Your fears, you suffer for them. You. Not me. You. Your family. For that matter you shouldn't have a family. Poisoning Gaia with more inhumane humans?! How dastardly of you.
Silly libtards. Live your BS or hush like the child you are.

Among American Conservatives, but not Liberals, trust in science has been declining since the 1970's. Climate science has become particularly polarized, with Conservatives being more likely than Liberals to reject the notion that greenhouse gas emissions are warming the globe. Conversely, opposition to genetically-modified (GM) foods and vaccinations is often ascribed to the political Left although reliable data are lacking. There are also growing indications that rejection of science is suffused by conspiracist ideation, that is the general tendency to endorse conspiracy theories including the specific beliefs that inconvenient scientific findings constitute a “hoax.”

we are a product of nature, of life. We re indeed destroying the planet. Conclusion, life evolves then destroys itself.

yes coming through our evolution/transformation.
"Man is a transitional being; he is not final. As it did not begin with him, neither does it end with him. He is not its evident crown, not its highest issue, not the last clear sum of Nature. Nature has not brought out in man her highest possibilities; she has not reached in him the supreme heights of consciousness and being; as there was before him the infrahuman, the insect and animal, so there shall be after him the superhuman, the superman.
Man may himself become the superman, he may become all that he is not now; but for that he must exceed himself. It is not by clinging to his present imperfect consciousness that he can take the next step in the evolution. He must discover and release the spiritual godhead within him, realise his divine possibilities, be himself the giant potential something, the divine someone who has been struggling into emergence out of the original plasm that imprisoned it since began the mystery of terrestrial Nature." - Sri Aurobindo

have you seen any hints of this supernatural stuff
I more open minded about this than I used to be

Quick post to show i am not dead.
I think the climate change lobby is out of control and detrimental to science (you are a pariah if you disagree with it) but as has been said weather is not climate. It was -18c here with snow for six weeks in 2009/10. That was freakish for here. 2010/2011 we had three weeks snow. Since then snow shovels and grit have sold well and people stockpile them. We had two cm his week in some places. Fuck all since 2011. Weather is not climate.

The others don't confirm global warming/climate change either. The Orwellian wording of these environmental political babble articles, designed to make quick profits for some, at the expense of the masses, is appalling, yet obvious.

I am doing my part for sure in this regard. No other action can even compare as far as carbon output is concerned.

consider investing in a used vehicle instead of buying new. A lot of energy is expended manufacturing cars.
air-cooled 90's Porsche 993 sounds about right.

best things an individual can do to reduce greenhouse gasses in the upper atmosphere is 1) don't eat beef, 2) minimize your number of long distance flights

Or, maybe...man isnt going to evolve , more likely devolve and will simply destroy itself and disapear, leaving other animal species to dominate the planet until the sun explodes and destroys it once and for all...
It's probably more reassuring to believe something "greater" awaits us than realizing nothing awaits us tho.

you find reassurance in your own worldview otherwise you wouldnt have it.

What?
are you saying that the warming is not due to C02 but that C02 is a consequence? what is the driver of warming then?
Oh by the way, kundalini nonsense you might feel is simply a known phenomenon called Kindling. Isn't Science fun? it makes bullshit explainable without crazy non-sensical fantasies.
-
you know nothing about kundalini so keep your trap shut.
And it is real scientists who I listen to about climate change saying that, not tin foil hattery.
-

Oh jesus.
Yes it's so esoteric I couldn't possibly know anything about it. When you think god is coming out of your bottom and shooting through your "chakras" take a minute and read about kindling.
What do you mean "real scientists" if they aren't climatologists who cares? you sound like Beach Bum, you have a group of "real" experts who you consult that have the "real" answers.
What you are saying doesn't make sense, in a basic chemistry, climatology manner. What is causing the current warming if not C02 (a greenhouse gas)?
-
Lets put the kundalini issue aside here this is a global warming thread. I will read about Kindling but I know where your coming from, that there is no spiritual basis for life and matter, well I disagree and wont waste time arguing that.
Yes they are climatologists and they say carbon levels follow warming and cooling. The warming and cooling are from the sun.

Ok, so what aspect of the sun? you realize we measure solar output very accurately right? based on the sun's output (slightly less currently) we should be cooling if no other factors were present.
They are wrong, flat out wrong. NASA has whole satellites dedicated to solar study, we can see solar flares, measure UV reaching the surface etc. You are either flat out lying, don't understand what they are saying or these "friends" are poor climatologists.
Show me a paper outlining what they are saying.

The whole quote is a misunderstanding of evolution. Evolution has no goal, no direction, there is no final form and not all things are possible, we will still be carbon based DNA containing organisms. Evolution occurs from pressure, can't reach the food in the tree, the ones with longer necks can and thus live and breed making longer necks.We have circumvented selective pressure, evolution isn't cell from dragon ball z, there is no final form, we won't be supermen.
Humans will control evolution and perhaps genetically modify people, but a slow progression of winged humans communicating via telepathy isn't going to happen from any pressure I can think of.

In what respect. A man can be brilliant, if he is simply ignorant of the facts of science (sometimes counter-intuitive, needing extensions on intellect, ie microscope) he could easily misconstrue something. I just rebutted him, Evolution isn't going anywhere, it didn't have humans as a goal, nothing.
You can't keep hiding behind logical fallacies like appealing to your "friends" who may or may not exist. You cannot simply state someone is really smart and assume everything they say is correct. I am not doubting he is a genius, I am just pointing out a inconsistency with reality.
Are you saying evolution is purposeful?
