Global warming is but a component, in a group of destructive forces at work such as ;deforestation,desertification,soil and water contamination ,irresponsible or wasteful utilization of bio resources , air pollution,Non sustainable Agriculture,over pumping carbon aquifers

all concepts which are definitely not part of the Natural Processes of the Natural world

WHICH WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR,

The most prolific growth on this planet is part of the day in the mist and most of the time under clouds ,and the least growth is always directly in the sun .
To exchange the one for the other means changing local climates

We are exchanging Nature with Tar , concrete and open spaced mono cultures.

In 300 years half of the planets forests have gone ,and in the last 50 years half of the wet lands ,and rain forests

These Areas absorb heat during the day and release heat at night ,
Cause cloud formation(shade).humidifying the air on the surface as well as releasing excess water at the roots that keep rivers flowing ,which in turn brings more water into the Environment .
As well as contributing to absorbing carbon emissions as do the leaves of the trees together with the oceans .

All in all many factors which directly affect the local Environment .
The loss of the above resulting in rivers drying up ,less rain ,desertification,loss of habitat for many species and so on.
dryer and hotter surface environments which can manifest in different weather patterns such as tornadoes or bush fires

I may be stupid or Naive but somehow i believe that lots of these local environmental changes, can add up to affect global weather, If there are enough of them (and there are)

And then on top of that comes the story of the effects of pollutants released into Nature and especially the Air ,by MAN http://earthissues.multiply.com/photos/a...


A cocktail of events and a lot of the ingredients have MAN written all over them

So it is safe to assume that we should look at ourselves ,just a teeny bit ,for possible improvements ,and rectifying Eco errors that are with in our powers.

No one will accept it, but CO2 has been pretty thoroughly debunked as a GW driver. Unless you can think of something else to blame us for, I%26#039;m going to have to say NO, we are not contributing to global warming.

Do a google search for the %26quot;Milankovitch Cycle%26quot; and you will find out what is driving global warming. I%26#039;m a geologist

JIM Z, have you read Singer%26#039;s work on CO2 as a lagging indicator? It%26#039;s pretty interesting, I think you would enjoy it. 0% 0 Votes

your asking the wrong people then?!

I think it%26#039;s a load of bull, did you not study GCSE geography as a kid, about the certain characteristics of our earth were formed and disappeared.?

now we%26#039;re being told by the government that it%26#039;s all due to global warming... funny how history changes. 0% 0 Votes

Of course! However, I believe it%26#039;s a relatively small amount in comparison to the effects of things like the sun and volcanos. Accordingly, the changes mandated by things like the Kyoto plan will make little difference, even in the long term. 0% 0 Votes

Of course we do.

What percentage? It would be misguided to try and give a percentage with the level of knowledge we currently have--one of the reasons I am a skeptic. 17% 1 Vote

um... if we%26#039;re global warming skeptics we probably don%26#039;t believe in global warming, unless it%26#039;s caused by the Sun, so... why would we think that humans contribute to something that we don%26#039;t believe exists?

no. zero.

If you take all the co2 that we put out in the past 50 years, it does not equal what Mt. Saint Helan%26#039;s put out in the first hour.

Why aren%26#039;t we asking the environmentalists why Mars is warming....ummm no humans there?????
