Blue Star Chronicles

X- Al Gore! I love it. I’m gonna post/link to this.

Did you even see the documentary? It clearly points out how carbon dioxide is increasing at an incredulous rate which the planet may survive, but human species will not. To say that the polar ice caps have been decreasing for 4 million years is to minimize the science that went into “An Inconvenient Truth”, and which is the focus of a new coordinated study by over 50,000 scientists during “The International Polar Year” http://www.enn.com/today.html?id=12298

It’s easy to take cheap shots at someone like Gore, but much harder to stand up for something that nobody believes but is vital to understanding our future survival on this planet.

I’m reading a book by Thomas Homer-Dixon called “The Ingenuity Gap” - he says in the prologue that “our species’ scientific and technological prowess is nevertheless extraordinary. We create miracles from raw nature, and we have revolutionized our existence in a few lifetimes. These accomplishments are to be celebrated. Unfortunately, they have also made us overconfident of our ability to solve the problems we face. Today, a disturbingly large proportion of people in rich countries seem to believe that our ingenuity is practically boundless and that our technical experts have all the authority and knowledge they need to deftly manage our ever more complex world. These beliefs and the complacency they produce are often completely unwarranted: in fact, we often have only superficial control over the complex systems we’ve made and critically depend upon.”

Now there’s another inconvenient truth for you. Poke fun at it if you wish.

What science in “An Inconvinient Truth?” You mean completely ignoring the reports that stated that the polar bears in the movie died due to a large storm, and not global warming?

You seem to have forgotten to post any of that science, Susan, instead going down political roads. CO2 is a minimal amount of the atmosphere, and has little to do with any temperature changes. Heck, the UN report shows an average of less the 1 degree C since about 1850. That is not very much. Approx 1.35 degrees F. Considering that the Little Ice Age ended around 1850, and there were NO CARS back then, kinda hard to figure out.

And, it is interesting that all the global warming as caused by Man disciples conveniently forget about that big ball that rises every morning and can blind you if you stare at it. And how about underwater volcano’s? They heat up the oceans (which, according to the UN report, are much warmer, particularly the Mid atlantic, where there are thousands of miles of volcano’s), as well as releasing greenhouse gases, such as methane, into the water which escapes into the atmosphere. Methane is much worse then CO2 when it comes to the greenhouse effect.

If the UN report is so great, why are there so many scientists names on it who have objected, saying that was not their conclusion? Why are scientists who believe in other views, based on science, ostrasized? Why is there no debate? Why? Because then the global warming as caused by man issue would be shown to be a sham, done simply for money and prestige.
