Global Warming?

[Tollster]

I love this warm experience, all winter long. Looking forward to a nice summer too here in Pennsylvania, I have no kids, and ride motorcycles, I also say pave the planet as well!

hmmmm.

Anyone want to tell ROME about how much the "globe" is warming?

Snow in Rome
The heaviest snow to fall in Rome since 1986 has chilled tourists and nuns alike..........

hmmmm.

Any day now, at that rate, the ice is gonna disappear altogether! Yep! Any day now....

Woooopsie.......Hello Al, well, uh, errr, I mean, well I gotta tell ya somethin. You're going to have to give back your Nobel peace prize and Oscar and well some of that cash you scammed from everyone.

Earth痴 ice is melting less rapidly than previously thought but sea levels continue to rise

Earth's ice is melting less rapidly than previously thought — but sea levels continue to rise

..........And here's something even more surprising: even with half a trillion tons of meltwater being added to the world's ocean's every year, the data collected by Wahr and his colleagues suggests that, outside of Greenland and Antarctica (the Earth's two largest caps), much of the planet's ice is melting at a slower rate than we once thought.

Hi all

Woooopsie.......Hello Al, well, uh, errr, I mean, well I gotta tell ya somethin. You're going to have to give back your Nobel peace prize and Oscar and well some of that cash you scammed from everyone.

Earth逞ｴ ice is melting less rapidly than previously thought but sea levels continue to rise

Earth's ice is melting less rapidly than previously thought — but sea levels continue to rise

..........And here's something even more surprising: even with half a trillion tons of meltwater being added to the world's ocean's every year, the data collected by Wahr and his colleagues suggests that, outside of Greenland and Antarctica (the Earth's two largest caps), much of the planet's ice is melting at a slower rate than we once thought.

But the above poster didn't post the conclusion of the study. From the above link ...

"[This] new data does not mean that concerns about climate change are overblown in any way," explained glaciologist Jonathan Bamber in an interview with the Guardian. "It means there is a much larger uncertainty in high mountain Asia than we thought. Taken globally all the observations of the Earth's ice - permafrost, Arctic sea ice, snow cover and glaciers ? are going in the same direction."

"Our results and those of everyone else show we are losing a huge amount of water into the oceans every year," echoed Wahr. "People should be just as worried about the melting of the world's ice as they were before."

What the new data does show is that nobody knows if the planet is warming,or if there is any need to panic if it is. They don't know what will happen if the planet warms, and they don't know what is causing it since CO2 is supposedly still climbing, but the temp of the planet hasn't gone up in 15 years.

Kind of hard to create panic when your problem isn't happening, and all the proof that it was happening turns out to be fabricated.

What's really amazing to me is that you have to go to news sources outside the US to find out what's going on in the world.

Yeah, sounds like global warming is based on the weather in the NE of the United States. That seems to be the only place it matters what the temperature is doing. Got news for the people in the NE, your weather has nothing to do with global warming. A warm winter in the NE means nothing. More than that the arrogance of the people in the NE to think the world is engaged in some man made global warm winter is incredible, but insightful of the type of people who believe this stuff. While Alaska, yes a State in the United States that has broken all records with cold this winter (-80f straight temp before all equipment failed due to the low temps.) don't exist and don't count is flabbergasting. If its warm in NYC must be global warming, incredible, but predictable considering who lives there, how gullible they are and how easy it is to mislead people not only on the hoax of MMGW. Sorry just tired of the dumb @ss in the NE who think they are the only people who exist in the world, I have to sit and listen to the idiots on the net works everyday talk about where winter is....gets old.

Another article similar to the one Eddie posted above, concerning the Himalayas.

Himalayan glaciers have lost no ice in the past 10 years, new study reveals | Fox News


Seems some "scientist" hold their research, like you would the plans for an atomic bomb, which makes me skeptical in the 1st place. If global warming is so imminent, it would seem they would be forthright and forthcoming with there data so the issue could be addressed on a global platform. All the she said, he said,,, or didn't, manipulation of data to fit ones agenda, sure discredits the theory in my mind. Or I may just have my head in the sand on this one.

Kinda wondering in what type of Climate them Galciers were made??

Had to take a lot of snow. To get a lot of snow a lot of water has to evporate somewhere.

Water ain't gona evaporate if'n it be cold does it???

 

[EddieWalker]

Maybe that's what they want, to get the planet cool enough for more glaciers?

But how do the Gaciers Form???

Very good example of not knowing what is happening, admitting that they don't know, but wanting more money to prove that it's because of man made global warming.

Were we reading the same article??

Obviously.

 

[Egon]

Obviously.

Sure seem to made different interpetations then!:thumbsup:

 

[EddieWalker]

What did you get from it?

Seemed like an article about the oceans might be warming based on man made global warming and that they need more money to study the effects of the warming water temperatures because of man made global warming. Then some pathetic plea to save the creatures living in the ocean that are or might be dying because of the warmer water temps.

The lopsided, one perspective view that ignored the obvious made it appear both simplistic, political, poorly thought out and manipulative.

What is causing the water to warm? What happened to the creatures in the water there last time it warmed? Has it been hotter in the past? Why is the water warming but the planet stoped 15 years ago?

So who are we to believe. Hereis the consensus.

We have Global Warming in 1922
You ask, I provide. November 2nd, 1922. Arctic Ocean Getting Warm; Seals Vanish and Icebergs Melt. | Watts Up With That?

Then NASA says the ice in NOT melting. - Neutral neither cooling OR warming.
Then we have the brilliant scientists of the 70's preaching Global COOLING

http://www.nationalcenter.org/Time-Ice-Age-06-24-1974-Sm.jpg

Then Al Gore says Global warming.

Then thousands of scientists say Al Gore is full of it.

Then the Liberals say Global warming and we need to tax everyone and give the money to the U.N.

And on and on and on we go.

The real answer is there is no real answer, and the "scientists" that is saying ANYTHING, warming or cooling is getting paid by someone to say whatever they want.
So the whole world gets in an uproar because of paid parrots. Bawwwwk , it's Global cooling, BAAAWK it's global warming BAAAWWWKKKK it' doing neither.

What part of the temps on this planet have been going up and going down for MILLIONS of years, don't people understand. And lookie here we are all here tying on the computer. How is that possible?

What gets me is if this is a global issue than why in the **** do our politicians see it as our responsibility to save the world. I remember a few years back they were saying something all developed countries need to reduce their carbon output (ie. US and western Europe) and developing countries such as China and India (10% annual growth I would say they can easily fall in the developed category) can proceed without restriction. To me this seems like an example of finding out feces causes dysentery so you move your livestock but continue to let your neighbor s**t in the stream.

I know people always make the claim we have to be the example to the world. For the most part the only thing other countries like about us is our $$$$. Except for a few countries such as Canada, Australia, and the EU pretty much the rest of the world could care less about global warming.
