Close. The diluting of seawater will disrupt the currents (which rely on water density from temperature fluctuations as well as salinity, which provides heat to the northern part of Europe, among other places.quiet_samurai said:
Global Warming is happening. The effects of global warming, the extent of which those effects will affect the planet, and the causes of global wrming are currently a topic of *ahem* heated debate.
Would be beautiful if you could see the cloud cover, which was "amazingly" not there.demmalition1 said:
I at first completely believed in Global warming, but then in 9th grade I did a project that I had to cover both sides of an argument in a non-bias way, and I got global warming. There was a lot of research which included some charts that appeared to show that this pattern is natural, though each time it seemed to get a bit warmer on the increases. Those, and the whole thing about finding icecaps on Mars have started to sway me towards the side of saying that it might not be a human caused problem.
Somebody's never heard of a firefly!demmalition1 said:
I'm joking, of course. About the firefly thing, not the arrogance. It's funny how all these people talk about the northern pole ice melting, but fail to mention that the southern pole is reporting record increases in ice. Maybe Global Warming isn't what we think it is. Maybe Global Warming is just natures way of redistributing the ice.
Or maybe it's sun spots. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/02/070228-mars-warming.html
Na, probably them aliens driving their SUVs on Mars.

I see your picture of earth at night and raise you a sun spot. http://www.hposoft.com/Astro/Solar/Sun_and_earth.jpg

Ah, so you suggest that everybody develop everything from first principles, or should we only trust the texts that you like?Finally I'm just saying stop hyping up the news, the news emphasizes bad, that's what it does, it doesn't speak the truth for there is no truth, there's the view of the time.
Listen to your textbooks if you want but just keep in mind this, textbooks once said the world was flat and you could survive a nuclear bomb if you hid under a desk
Just like a raindrop is nothing compared to New Orleans, right? Try thinking in large numbers.
Credit where credit is due, however, I normally don't see such a large collection of the lower ranked myths in one place.
However, might I suggest that in future when you do your "research" you perhaps follow your own advice and go further than the nearest link on the internet. Try digging into the actual data that's present in the scientific journals The site I've linked you to here has enough citations that can get you started in some real research.
Hey friend let me just say this, we listen to what facts we want to hear, now the real thing is your "what science says" thing copes with the trends of the times. Science said the world was flat, science said We spontaneously appeared, science said God placed us hear
SCIENCE SAID MANY THINGS!!!!
doesn't mean their true, THEY ARE THEORIES, liable to change at the drop of a dime. Don't argue this point, there is no such thing as fact. Btw i have looked into alot more than you think. and I have judged based on what I've read and watched that global warming is not occurring.
Honestly believe what you want read what you want. I won't stop you also the likelyhood you watched that entire video already is next to none, so take MY advice and look it up to you might surprise yourself.
I'm leaving now thanks for the kicks. I enjoyed laughing at this threads anger build up
Nuh Uh! Al Gore says it exists!
Now in all seriousness, Global Warming is something that does exist but it doesn't exist in the same way. You may be asking yourself, "What the fuck is this guy talking about?!", well that's very simple see, It does exist because yes the Earth's temperature is rising you cannot deny that but it has been rising for a long long time now, it's just that people have found that they can get recognition for saying stuff about it. And there's where the term comes from. As I said yes the Earth is getting hotter BUT the winters are also getting longer and colder if you notice, the Earth naturally goes through a cycle every X amount of years and we are due for a part of that cycle, this happened a long time ago, the earth got really really hot, then it cooled down...fast, that was the last Ice Age, thing is, we've been due for another for a while now. So yeah it is getting hotter but it's part of a cycle so let it go already. In a way you're right, but it does exist in the same, just try to keep an open mind on things and don't kill what little faith in humanity I have left K?

Yea, I probably should of explained that. Well, here it is:lostclause said:
The original graphs I saw had pattern of a times of global cooling then warming. The temperatures basically would go between the extremes of warm and cold in and a graph basically resembling drawings of mountains. The Mars part comes in because there were various photos of Mars, showing how over the years ice caps have gradually started to dissappear on the northern part of Mars (Or at least the top of the picture). What this starts to signal is that temperatures on Mars are starting to reach an extreme of warm that hasn't been seen, or at least since we started being able to take photos of Mars.
