Looks like I%26#039;m getting thumbs downs because they can%26#039;t prove it lol. 5% 1 Vote
If you can%26#039;t explain the whole thing, you can%26#039;t prove anthropogenic global warming. And why should I spend money to change my lifestyle for something unproven during a cooling trend? 0% 0 Votes
The ice melts in the summer every year!
The questions are how far, how fast, and will it continue?
This current period of %26#039;global warming%26#039; began around 15,000 years ago, with a very rapid increase about 8,000 years ago(which is believed to have caused the extinction of the Great Mammoth).
We have had a couple of %26#039;mini ice ages, since then.
The last %26#039;mini ice age%26#039; was around 1850, although 1650 and 1700 were also times of colder climatic conditions.
Depending on how you wish to interpret the statistics and what you wish to use as your baseline for your answer, you could either say we are currently in a period of rapid global warming or cooling!
The fact is that no matter what %26#039;Mother Nature%26#039; decides to throw our way, we can do nothing about it, nor could we affect or alter it!
If you wish to be one of those who is willing to accept the hype and BS that we hear and see everyday in the media without bothering to learn some basic science to help sort through the mess, then you deserve to reap what you have sown and suffer along with the rest of us!
I can only say that I am personally glad to be lucky enough to be living in a period of global warming conditions(if we are now).
With the high cost of energy I struggle to keep warm during the winter months(even as mild as they have been lately).
One good volcanic eruption could screw this all up for me!
It is only man%26#039;s arrogance and stupidity that makes us believe that we are so powerful that we could affect nature on a global scale.
The simple fact is that even though we are in a climatic warming period that this could all change rather suddenly(in earth%26#039;s time frame at least). 5% 1 Vote
