Global Warming Is a Cause of This Year’s Extreme Weather

Yes, the weather conditions have been going on for centuries, but you have to look at the facts as well, before all this started. The weather is not the same as before. It has gotten worse within the last 100-200 years. Global Warming IS the main problem. And if we don't start becoming more aware of that and admitting that we are the cause and try to be the solution, are children are not gong to have a place to live in the future or to bulid there futures. If you look at the world before and you look at it now, there is a major difference. People have gotten so use to having everything handed to them and driving just a few blocks, when they could walk or ride a bike, that we have all gotten lazy. Yes including myself. The Earth has given us so much in return, why is it that we can not do the same. If everyone could do alittle, it could add up to alot. We are destroying are home and our futures, and the next generations to come. We only have one chance in this lifetime. Wouldn't you like to say you had a part in making it better. To say there world is better place because of me. I know I sure do. I know that I want my kids to be able to run around and be able to witness life of nature. Just to see how beautiful the Earth really is. Please OPEN YOUR EYES!! before it is too late.

An interesting concept that most people want to avoid is the fact that nature responds to God's voice. Whenever God speaks nature responds. Sounds crazy, but for any Bible believer scriptures state that nature responds to God and sure enough waves, winds, and mountains respond to God's voice. God spoke the world into existence and when Christ died and said it is finished, the earth quaked. For a book on what is happening in the heavens please go to focusonheaven dot.com

did any one here ever fill a glass full of ice.. and then fill it to the brim with water... then wait for the ice to melt? did your glass over flow? no? why not and if not how will melting ice caps rase the oceans water lever? ..... for all the physics majors out there yes i know the real answer but i dont think many of these people do... well in the aspect of melting ice being the cause of raising sea levels..

If you think the earth has been cooling since 1998, you're clearly living in a (very cool) cave. The average temperature has been steadily rising over the past 40 years, with 2006 as the hottest year on record. The biggest temperature changes have been at the poles, but the smaller changes everywhere else are clearly having disastrous results on the weather.

Wake up people...do some research. The cutting down of 80% of the forests contribute. The trees are major part of balancing the weather, filtering the air, cold and heat moderation. The pollution the industry is causing on our earth is toxic to the air, water, soil. The soil being drilled, moved, mined, polluted all have something to do. Everything exists in a cycle. We have consumed too much without putting enough back and now the earth is responding to the abuse. There are so many factors that work together in destroying our system. If more of us become more aware of these things and look beyond the 4 corners we live in we can do something about it. There are programs such as zerowaste, using solar power--thats one fuel thats available to all of us and can save on the electric bill. Think about our generations after us. check out these sites. www.storyofstuff.com discusses the pollution, consumption, Bill Mollison (permaculturalist) is also a great resource, check out some of his videos. It goes beyond just Global Warming. These scientists that study this do it for a living. They keep letting the world know whats going on. The solution lies within all of us. Synergy Earth

Its not global warming--More and more catastrophes are to happen as we get closer and closer to the polar shift of our planet on December 21, 2012-What is predicted to wipe out much of the world.

I'm not 100% sure about global warming. Everyone has their agenda. I tend to be skeptical. Here are some difficult-to-answer questions:
1) if GW is caused by carbon dioxide, why did we have a warming cycle in the 11th century?
2) if GW will destroy the planet, why didn't the 11th century warming destroy the planet?
3) why do we think today's temperature is the one to defend regardless of cost? Maybe a planet 5 degrees warmer than what we currently will make us better off, all things considered.
4) why are other planets in our solar system getting warmer? Don't think it's SUV exhaust fumes.

Dear Sharon,

Your Journalism School should rescind your diploma. What a load of steaming crap! Weather has always been unpredictable and always will be. If you check out the real experts, a lack of current sunspot activity is pointing toward Global Cooling for the next 30 years at least. Better buy a parka.

What is also disgusting : our government suggesting increased fossil fuel production on our own soil to help alleviate our current energy woes. Sure, keep the greedy oil companies happy while conveniently ignoring the repercussions. ANSWER: we need to get OFF the oil!!! Add all fossil fuels for that matter. We need to champion electric / battery powered vehicles faster than we currently are, and poise ourselves to sell the technology globally as well. HELLO, GM at less than $10 / share??? I'm buying! Solar power - YES, Hydro / Wind, YES, Nuclear, YES! Getting OFF the fossil fuels will not only help solve our energy dependency issues, but also cease the irreparable damage we've done to earth's atmosphere.

Absolute TOSH, all those that agree with man made global warming hold your breath right now because you destroying the planet, you exhale carbon right? Once all factories and carbon emitting things have been wiped off the planet, what will be left to explain the continuing trend of crazy weather? Humans breathing precious oxygen and exhaling carbon,WAKE UP YOU IDIOTS! YOU'VE BEEN BRAINWASHED TO YOUR DEATH!

ANSWER: FALSE Get you head out of the TV. They want you to believe its global warming is a man made problem . So now they can Tax us for breathing. Over 100 scientist have said . There is NO proff its caused by humans. What about the 4 scientist Al Gore that quit your study.Then have received death threats? Because they did not believe what you were trying to sell.. Builderburg is up to no good. It is a shame the polar bear is going bye bye. But to say its caused by man . That is BULL. Mother earth will do its cleaning as it feels neccasary . I have read many reports on this subject. The ones I've read didn't come from Al Gore or Main stream media.

Absolute TOSH, all those that agree with man made global warming hold your breath right now because you destroying the planet, you exhale carbon right?

When the earth is one black soggy burned up ash.....people can stop debating this. Meanwhile
only the dull witted will ignore the obvious trends. Maybe you have to live longer to see it....but
my 60 years can confirm it with confidence. Global Warming is entirely and completely engulfing us.

To believe that we (humans) are the sole cause of all the ills that have befallen the earth because of our use of oil is like believing in the tooth fairy. Nice story, no substance. In point of fact, most of the climate change we see here on earth is a direct result of sunspot activity or the lack thereof. The more sunspot activity we see warmer it gets here on earth. And because sun spot activity is now virtually non existent as we head into the 25th solar cycle, coupled with a decrease in the activity of the sun's plasma fields look for temps to start to cool here on earth. Some scientists have even started to predict the return of the Dalton Minimum, a global cooling event that lasted from about 1790 to 1830 and was directly related to a decrease in solar activity. While we cannot treat our environment with contempt, we must also realize that running about like a bunch of environmental chicken littles screaming the the sky is falling is just as ludicrous. There is more than enough scientific evidence that refutes the global warming myth but not enough is being reported about it. So, in answer to the question posed by this article's headline, "Is Global WarmingCause Of This Year's Extreme Weather? The answer is no. And all you need to do is a bit of research to find out just how much of a canard global warming really is.

Jeanne32: Ride your bike if you want, walk backwards to work for all I care, but when this bogus crap leads to the hypocritical liberal, lying politicians making rules that affect the way I live - that's abuse.
