I'm currently reading an article in National Geographics. Its fact, not fiction and it isn't in the future, its now. Tempurture readings have been taken around the world and compared with past records. It is now to late for us all to buy electric cars, or, is this caused by a polar shift. I have read somewhere it has moved five miles. Some will say, it was going to happen anyways. That may be true, we don't know that for sure, but computer similations have shown that even if this was mother nature, we have pushed it forward, faster, possibly faster than mother nature could compensate for.

I come home from work and my wife tells me about the hurricane hitting Florida. The largest ever known they predict. Millions of people are trying to leave and they're opening up both lanes of the highway. Well, I want to say, "That's what they get for voting for Bush." But I know better. I live on a flood plain. It could some day be underwater, or become a plateu surrounded by water, who knows.

There are predictions about 2012, its when the Egyption calander ends, and everyone has their theory and are watching events closely, clubs and groups have been created. It might be a good idea if the Cynic creats its own section. It will be the next big thing after Kerry becomes president.

Oh ya - I've also read that we are past due for an ice age, could that be because of the global warming?

In the back an old barn I'm converting to a green house. Due to the hurricane there is a wood shortage and we need to learn to conserve, so I've decided I will use up all the good pieces of scrap wood first before I buy any wood for the project. It might look funny. But hey - Its just a green house.

If this global warming was going to happen anyway, what's the problem? Let us suppose we've sped up the natural heating, its not like we've made things worse. It only means we have to deal with the problem, as opposed to our children.

Secondly, the Earth has known far higher temperatures with life still working fine on it.

Thirdly, high levels of carbon dioxyde (the main greenhouse gaz we emit) means that plants will fare better (just as we perform slightly better at high oxygen low-altitudes). They have more activity, consume more carbon dioxyde.

The Earth's temperature regulation is done through checks. We could hypothetically destroy them, but it would require far more then merely accelerating what was already happening.

I have not heard of this.

Oh just jump of a bridge if your going to be like this!

So we are not responsible for our collective actions?
Granted I have been against war for a long time so I feel I have a responsibility. To act thusly because I don't accept the actions of others?

Global warming is an unavoidable occurance, of the increaseing population of our world.

I personaly do not see the problems with it, itts human nature to evolve with the problems we face and continue our lives.

And i guess most people are worried about rising sea levels, which wont happen.

Think of a glass of water, you place an ice cube in it, and it displaces water, and causes the level to rise.
You leave the ice cube in the water, it melts, yet the level of water does not change, due to the fact, as water freezes it expands, which causes a greater mass, which displaces more water.

Once the ice has melted, it will have a lower mass, therefore displaceing less water..so if you think about it, they may get lower.

And hey, who dosent want their country to get hotter... i know forwell i want mine too (England) the rain gets a bit boring sometimes

And that makes me think....the hotter it gets, the more water is evaporated and collected into clouds, which as it cools down will cause it drop as precipitation, (rain, fog, sleet,hail etc etc) which means more rain if the world gets hotter......joy

Mind you, the sea level would go up if global warming becomes significant. Because the hotter a liquid is, the more dilated it becomes and therefore takes up more and more space.

That's true, if not much else.

The reversal of the field is perfectly normal, and I'm pretty sure, is unrelated to global warming.
