Lol. So did man cause the last ice age? Or the last global warming period? There's generally a warmup period right before the onset of an ice age. I would be much more concerned with that. Seeing as how we're overdue and all.
Wonder why all the global warming peeps started using "climate change"? Nobody likes being wrong....

How are we overdue for an ice age? Technically we are still in the last one.
Quote:
Glaciologically, ice age implies the presence of extensive ice sheets in the northern and southern hemispheres.[1] By this definition, we are still in the ice age that began 2.6 million years ago at the start of the Pleistocene epoch, because the Greenland, Arctic, and Antarctic ice sheets still exist.

I was eating an early dinner in a restaurant in India once, in the state of Bihar, when the workers all ran up to me excitedly (I was their only customer at the moment), talking about how it was snowing outside.
None of them had ever seen snow before, and they were flipping their shits with excitement--I got up to go outside to check it out--being from Canada, they wanted my expert opinion on this event.
Getting outside, it became immediately apparent that it was just a severe hailstorm--not snow at all--and laughed inwardly to see the Indians jumping around in what had to be painfully large chunks of falling frozen ice--I let them believe it was snow though--couldn't bear to crush the joy on their faces.

Of course the climate changes. Good thing, too. Otherwise the whole planet would be covered by ice as it once was.

do you have anything to back that up? because every single science-related professor I have talked with in the halls of the university I work at disagrees with you.

they're liberals arent they
the global warming activists biggest piece of 'evidence' is the proof, it's a survey, not actually evidence, but they polled 10,000 publishing climate scientists and opted to use the responses from fewer than 100 to claim that 97% of climate scientists agree that global warming is man made

When I was a kid, there was a guy everybody called "Crazy Charlie". All winter long he would wander around the neighborhood telling everybody, "There's no snow in Egypt!"
I wonder what old Charlie is up to today

my understanding was that it was believed to be a projected result of increasing carbon emissions, since it is well establishedthat such emissions do in fact create a warming effect in controlled environments
by the way you sound really, really, REALLY stupid/ignorant when you say things like "they're liberals aren't they". just so you know. i am not a liberal but come on dude. sometimes your views seem really intricate and complex, and other times they seem so oversimplified that i honestly just want to slap you

Pretty sure it's global warming. What's that snow isn't warm! You're right. but when you put more into a system you will get bigger extremes while the "bugs" are being sorted out.
Right now the planet is freaking out every which way trying to figure out what to do with all this extra energy until our oceans absorb it and begin warming.

uh, that's not what I meant. what I meant is that you are a fucking retard for instantly dismissing someone on the grounds that YOU associate them with a particular label. most of these guys probably dont even give a two shits about politics, they are scientists

Yes. Because in the early 2000s republican strategists got the word out to stop calling it global warming, use climate change instead http://www.politicalstrategy.org/archives/001330.php
Quote:
1) "Climate change" is less frightening than "global warming". As one focus group participant noted, climate change 'sounds like you're going from Pittsburgh to Fort Lauderdale.' While global warming has catastrophic connotations attached to it, climate change suggests a more controllable and less emotional challenge.
This change was entirely due to GOP marketing strategy. It turns out the term they thought would make the problem less frightening, is a better descriptor.

flaming? really...
why not ask them their political views before you tell us how they have none and then appeal to authority with the claim of 'but they're scientists'

you mind showing us the conclusive proof of this claim as opposed to the speculation and models/simulations that show nothing but what someone puts into it, especially since your statements are contradictory to what's being claimed by the IPCC

Don't be that guy who runs around saying AGW isn't real. And since you're the one holding the position with less evidence, please show me (actual scientific data, not from one of those conspiracy sites) that the things i have said are not happening. Please show me the statements from the IPCC that contradict what I have said.
I'm all for intelligent debate but this is not intelligible. Let's say that AGW isn't real and that it's all a massive hoax... Why would you not want to take better care of the planet by adjusting our way or doing just about everything to have less impact on our planet? Change and be safe, and if it is not real and you changed anyway... Well congratulations of the massive leaps forward we have made in technology and co-operation.
