Re: Re: Evidence of Harm movie/ climate

The oldest ice core data which can tell us the history of the climate for up to 750,000 years is pretty revealing.

That is one of the most reliable way of determining the past climate.

It is clear that you have a lot of research to do regarding the climate debate and I encourage you to do so as it will be potentially be one of the most important issues we will have to face.

The Great warming is every bit as good as Al Gores film if not a little better in that it explains more positive changes we can and ( in many cases) are making. The explanations and discussion is more global centric and will give many Americans a better perspective of the issue from a GLOBAL rather than a purely National perspective! Which can ultimately only be a good thing for the globe if a little humbling for the US!

Re: Evidence of Harm movie

No I haven't seen it and don't plan on it. The last 300 pages ofchemistry text talking about global warming was enough to do me for awhile.I don't ignore the presentation of global ice loss. I do argue that wedo not have definitive records of weather history over the course ofour world. Heck, they can't even agree on how old the world is, so howcan it be that we know. We've only been keeping definite weatherrecords for the last 100+ years. Sure we have written historyaccounts, but that's about it. I do agree that we are polluters, andwe need to stop/significantly reduce our pollution. I just don't thinkyou can take a few pieces of data and equate it to death in a coupleof decades.The best meteorologist I've ever heard, Joe Bastardi, has said ourcurrent weather cycle is mimicking the 50-60s. There was also a bigindustrial increase during that time. Can we equate the weather toindustrial increases based on 2 pieces of data? No, we just don't knowenough. It is said the Appalacians I live near were once under water.Why are they so high now? It's certainly not because man was burningus up with SOx & NOx production. Of course, if you're a believer inthe Great Flood that every society in the world has documented intheir history, that would explain it.Be environmentally friendly yes, panick we're all going to burn todeath in a decade or 2, I'm just not ready to do.
