Do people seriously think Global Warming isnt real?

Question

I think this is rediculous. There are clues to global warming in every day life. How can people avoid this and still think that its just a joke?

Answer 1

Yeah... human are still unconcious with what really happening around them... with their STUPID brain...

"Please wake up! that's not a joke or a story!" I'm really wanna shout like that to everyone.

Answer 2

I believe the theory could be plausible, but the fact that warming has occurred in the past without the help of man, does help to at least cast a little doubt as to the cause. The way it has been politicized, and the ridiculous things many left-wingers have said "the debate is over" has not helped out the cause of believers. As a skeptic, I will concede that I may be wrong. What is damning to believers is that they won't. That's not very scientific.

Answer 3

I don't think anybody seriously believes global warming isn't real or isn't caused by humans.

There are a lot of people who are in denial about the issue.  They get their information from right-wing blogs, TV weathermen, right-wing think tanks, and the like.

However, even these people don't really think global warming isn't real.  They're obviously in denial, but deep down I think they really know the truth.

Answer 4

Global warming is a farce.  Just what is unacceptable levels of carbon in the atmosphere.  Oh, and just so "everyday life" has anything to do with it, this has been the coldest winter ever on the planet.  But I guess that doesn't count.

Answer 5

yes the same weather patterns repeat it's normal. if there is global warming, it's really gradual.

Answer 6

Cause they are stupid, and they are scared, and they are greedy, and they don't want to spend a dime of their precious money.

Answer 7

I think global warming is real, but not the causes most people generally think. It could be caused by the sun warming due to the fact the other planets are warming too. Or it could be caused by a change in orbit around the sun.

Answer 8

Poor little kid.

Simple: Al Gore wants money and attention

Answer 9

both sides of the issue are believing what they hear.

Answer 10

try living in manitoba, you will deny global warming faster than you can even say it.

Answer 11

the evidence and arguments are pretty esoteric and it's easily distorted, especially if one doesn't know much about science or like the implications. many people accept far more absurd things than agw pseudo-skepticism... i don't think it is hard to explain, unfortunately.

Answer 12

they r just tooooooo scared 2 admit it

Answer 13

Most people will agree the earth has warmed in recent decades. What is not true is that man is the primary cause. There is no scientific evidence that man is the cause to global warming. It is a natural cycle.

Answer 14

WOW simple word for what or who

global warming is obviously real. its right infront of us. in our every day lives.

Answer 15

Many have proven for a fact that global warming in fact is NOT real.

There is evidence that it could be real, and there is evidence it could be just a "joke".

Answer 16

Clues in everyday life? What? Can you see the carbon trapping the heat? Ice melting is not evidence of human induced warming. Birds in places where they didn't used to be is not evidence of AGW. That is what is really ridiculous. I don't doubt that it has warmed in the past 100 years, but it has also warmed for the last 12,000.

Answer 17

To quote Ann Coulter:

"The temperature of the planet has increased about one degree Fahrenheit in the last century. So imagine a summer afternoon when it’s 63 degrees and the next thing you know it’s . . . 64 degrees. Ahhhh!!!! Run for your lives, everybody! Women and children first! Where's FEMA?"

That, my friends, is the work of a pure genius. You liberals need to start worrying about fighting things that could actually harm us.

Answer 18

We have warmed out of the last extensive glaciation 10,000 years ago, and have warmed up from the "little ice age" in the middle ages.

No one doubts we have gotten warmer from these temperatures.

The question is whether mankind has a significant effect on global temperatures.

The answer is no one knows for sure.  No sure enough to trash the world's economy.

No one can explain the comings and goings of previous ice ages, so the best explanation is that whatever caused previous ice ages is causing the current cycle.

Why folks claim they understand the current cycle and none of the previous ones, is a mystery.  The public is not that grossly stupid.

Answer 19

More important to get on with life and get on to renewable energy. With the decline of oil, we have to act fast-but get it right. GW will then solve itself. Or we USA citizens can not be the blame.

Answer 20

Skeptics question if it is caused by man or by nature.

Answer 21

Look People,

One has to realize that the world itself has many cycles. Look at water for instince. It heats up, cools down and then does it all over again naturally.  Another, look at trees. They "die" in the fall yet come back to life in the spring.

It is senseless to believe that the world itself  does not naturally go through cycles.

10,000 years ago, the world was in a ice age. Then the world heated up and the ice melted, and I am fairly certain there were no cars and factories then.

People can not take to heart everything that Al Gore has to say. We need to examin the world ourselves, and by doing so, we will thus learn that Global Warming is NOT man caused!

Answer 22

we are in 2008 and there was b.c.and its been ok up to 70s .in the 50s we was on rasion books and not a pot to pee in. since money and modern tecnoligy took off in the 60s/70s factorys and cars lorrys etc has exchaneged our air for smog,,i believe its not to long now before we are extinct by our own tecnoligy.. we must blame the goverment for this as we have other clean methods of fuel but no money to be earnt in for them.I can put cooking oil in my car or lorry and bring my emmisions down to more or less nothing but to scared becouse i can go to prision for evading tax???????? DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A CARING GOVERMENT considering your tax will pay to keep me in there?????

Answer 23

Since the NOAH and NASA as well as two other major sources say that we are actually cooling (i.e. the temp last year wiped out 100 years of warming) I think it is ridiculous to keep thinking that it is real.

The joke is that there are gullible people out there that are easily pulled into a hoax that could cost many a great deal.

P. T. Barnum said "there is a sucker born every minute."

Answer 24

I  personally get rather pissed when people think it is a joke and don't act upon it! Before you know it half of our land it going to be under water. Then we can finally say 'We told you so.' Those who don't believe it need to watch 'An Inconvienient Truth' and then maybe we might be able to die of old age.

Answer 25

poeple dont want to beleive it.

Answer 26

Most logical people with no agenda, like myself, do not believe in global warming.  They have researched both sides of the argument through the internet, t.v., newspapers, and magazines. They have come to the conclusion that people like Al Gore are just in it for the money.  He needs the money to light, heat and cool his gigantic house.
