CR, would you buy a stock with a chart that looked like that? -lol- nobody debates the actual temperatures increasing to one degree or another in recent history. the reason is the cause. your post assumes the cause is CO2 and humans have control. why? appeal to authority is a logical fallacy. either you know why you believe it or you have no clue but go on faith. so tell us, how have you fundamentally changed your life to reduce CO2 emissions since you believe that it will destroy the planet? have you sold all your cars yet? >>But I don't bother engaging the deniers.<< why, because you can't explain your viewpoint except by an appeal to authority (which baghdad ben can use equally well to support his monetary policy!) and just want to feel smarter than other people who actually want to know exactly how the link has been proven without actually having proven it? if you can't prove the link, then your opinion is merely faith based. nothing more. just like baghdad ben's opinion on monetary policy. theaustralian.news.com.au crichton-official.com PS - and that chart shows that GST proclamations about the earth not cooling of late are completely false. thanks for posting that. PSS - i'm not a "denier." it is simple minded to think this is "our team" against "their team." i don't know either way and nobody has been able to prove anything either way. there appear to be reasonable arguments both ways (does man made CO2 causing mars' glaciers to melt at a more rapid rate, too?). the sheer arrogance of "so and so says it is true, i don't need no stinkin' proof and i don't even bother talking to the ignorant who don't believe as i do" is just annoying. then again, this is an al gore based movement, so i'd expect nothing less. and here's your nobel prize winning dissenter (like me, he agrees the data isn't conclusive either way) Moreover, global warming has become a new religion. We frequently hear about the number of scientists who support it. But the number is not important: only whether they are correct is important. We don’t really know what the actual effect on the global temperature is. There are better ways to spend the money [question period],” he referred to a lecture about poverty by Hans Rosling (Sweden) that heavily relied on my favorite Gapminder: well, he is the director of the Gapminder Foundation.” canadafreepress.com motls.blogspot.com a better chart... wattsupwiththat.files.wordpress.com wattsupwiththat.com
