Last 10 Years are Warmest in Modern History
According to a new report, "The last 10 years are the warmest 10-year period of the modern record," said NOAA climate monitoring chief Deke Arndt.

It doesn't matter if you believe in global warming or not, the ice caps are melting and Earth is getting warmer.
Living in Phoenix, I might have beach front property soon!

yeah, you'll probably also end up having to eat your own pets.

Just nuke half the population, and we're OK
Again with the global warming

I've developed a containment system for dog farts that recycles the methane and heats your house at the same time. Waiting on Al Gore to get in his big jet and fly on over here. Maybe he'll try to get 'em to pass a law or something and I'll be rich.

No no...it's not a global warming debate. The climate is obviously changing so the bigger issue is what will happen as the Earth goes through this change.

Something's got to give.Didn't you know? If you don't talk about it, the problem will go away.

It was a made up problem to begin with.

I tried that with my credit card bills. Now, my credit score isn't the best

Because there is a direct correlation between population numbers and average temperature. Milla posted the chart a while ago.

Well, that's the problem. Been working on a partnership with Glade, but they stopped taking my calls.
Fair enough. It's definitely interesting stuff to read about. I used to read about it all the time when everyone started going crazy about it.
Tim-- the global temperature has increased about a degree celcius over the last 100 years, correct? ( More influential than it sounds).

Yeah. I'm not buying it! It all depends on how you look at the data. It also depends of whether you can prove cause and effect, knowing correlation doesn't equal "cause".
If one looks at the amount of carbon dioxide in ice core samples that cover 400,000 years of history and not just the 130 years this study looked at, one can observe a cycle of warming that occurs every 10,000 years, like clock work! We are in the peak of one of those 10,000 year cycles. Will industrialization and the population of mankind contribute to a peak that is above historic norms? We probably will never live long enough to say so definitively.
One thing is for certain, we should NOT pass this cap and trade bill based on the evidence we have so far, especially since this bill will not significantly change our output of carbon into the atmosphere and will only end up stealing wealth from the poor and middle class to solve a problem we might not have. It will however make Al Gore extremely rich and allow him to trot around the globe selling his message of gloom from the steps of his private jet!TimTurner wrote:

Something's got to give.Sweet, pretty soon we will have summer weather all year round!
The climate has been changing since the earth's existence. The report also said data was used from the past 130 years, which is a drop in the bucket. Additionally, only temperature over the last 30 years has been scientifically documented by satellites, which aren't completely accurate. Before that it was some dude with a thermometer (How accurate are those numbers?).

glad I have a pool
there are times here during the summer that it feels like walking into an oven.
even now I have on the air. I'm spoiled now, I probably couldn't take a northern winter like upstate NY where we once lived. we moved because the winters were too long and cold. brrrr..TimTurner wrote:

What’s happen to all that volume of water in all oceans/seas when a sustained 1 degree rise in temperature is maintained for a long period? - The water will expand and the volume is substantial. The sooner you dispose your beach front property the better.
