  Then we have the increase in tsunamis, hurricanes, forest fires, earth quakes.
  There are cities in the U.S. whose rainfall has
  decreased 75% and cities whose rainfall has
  increased 75% of the norm.
  
  Glaciers in Montana have decreased from 150 to 26!!! Check out the before and after pictures.

  Why do they think it%26#039;s a hoax?? I don%26#039;t know.
  I don%26#039;t think humans are the sole blame.
  But we sure aren%26#039;t helping and there are too
  many selfish people out there that don%26#039;t want
  to stop using or give up using their %26quot;stuff%26quot;!
  
  Then there is the %26quot;energy%26quot; industry
  And the govenment and politics!!
  Ahhh, Yes. The Government.
  And %26quot;green%26quot; cities like Chicago that
  plant gardens on top of buildings but won%26#039;t

  It is far more than a blog and has links to many studies to back up it%26#039;s conclusions. A great read for the layman wanting to understand GW better.
  I dare the AGW believers to read it. This is not the only paper of it%26#039;s kind. I have links to many other %26quot;non believers%26quot; works.
  Global warming is not a hoax.....Human caused GW is!
  
  Oh yea.....Just because someone disagrees with you does not make them %26quot;weak minded%26quot;. This is a very dangerous way of thinking and generally is bad for real research.
  
  Andrew Q? You actually believe those wiki links somehow refute the study I provided you? One does tell the story of one of the scientists that wrote it. Nothing in it refutes the work. Attacking the researcher does not refute their work. Try this link to skekpics of GW. Great stuff

• It%26#039;s not that GW is a hoax as much as it is the misinformed notion that man is responsible for it. I do not deny there is evidence of some GW however; I question how much man can be held responsible.
  
  Many here say it%26#039;s the oil company%26#039;s behind all of the research supporting the “deniers.” But the oil company%26#039;s aren%26#039;t selling %26quot;Carbon credits%26quot; now are they? They aren%26#039;t trying to get legislation passed that would give the government control over your thermostat and restrict the kind of light bulbs you can buy. So who is trying to control who here? Kyoto leaves out three of the top four contributors of CO2 so is it really the big issue it is being presented as?
  
  Little boy from Texas, either you have a very bad memory or you just haven%26#039;t been paying attention. I grew up in Texas also and the highs and low%26#039;s here have always been crazy from year to year. I remember one year when it was warm enough to go swimming on Christmas day and then there was the time it almost snowed in June. Check the record books and you%26#039;ll see record high%26#039;s from the 20’s %26amp; 30’s and record lows from the 80%26#039;s and 90%26#039;s.
  
  Now I have read papers on the realities of man made GW that state it is evidenced by and responsible for increased hurricane activity. Oddly enough those papers come out during times when we are experiencing increased hurricane activity. But when we are experiencing reduced activity another paper says GW causes decreased activity. Which is credible? Oh… I know, it causes both right?
  
  The glaciers in Greenland are in fact melting around the edges but the core temps inland are lower than they have ever been. The North Pole is melting and getting smaller but the South Pole is getting bigger. There are places around the globe that are experiencing some of the coldest winters on record and others are recording milder temps than normal.
  
  The man made GW proponents are going after our CO2 contribution to the greenhouse gas equation. Yet CO2 is not even 1/3 of the total greenhouse gasses supposedly responsible for GW. Of that less than 30% greenhouse gas contribution, man is accountable/responsible for less than 3% total. So in respect to the total greenhouse gas contribution man can be held responsible and can affect less than 1%.
  
  And the proponents want us to believe we can control GW.
  
  If we eliminated all man made CO2 it wouldn’t make much of a difference in the big picture.
  
  Now the man made GW proponents want legislation/regulation which will negatively affect our economy and cost everyone more to just get by and only for us the US. The other major contributing countries around the world are getting a free pass. So now the effect on that %26gt;1% contribution is even less. And for what... absolutely nothing more than to dig in our pockets and take more of our money!
  
  And you say we are the stupid ones.
