Do you belive global warming is happening?

Question

because it is April and here in the UK we have more snow. Just like easter sunday. I don't belive global warming is happening. Just aload of hype.

Answer 1

I believe it's just evolution!

I wonder if all the dinosuars worried about 'global warming' millions of years ago....

Answer 2

On friday it was so sunny and warm, I just needed a light cardigan. Today I had a snowball fight and made snowmen.

It's happening.

Our population has tripled in the last fifty years and we just don't have enough resources for everyone. We are all greedy consumers - even the poor. It's mental mental chicken oriental!

Answer 3

On man made global warming, all I can say is there are a lot of facts showing that the world is getting warmer.  For example, the sea is getting warmer (plankton that like warm waters are moving northwards), and the sea level has risen (Pacific Islands are disappearing underwater).  These are facts.  That does not necessarily mean that man is responsible, but there is a lot of scientific evidence suggesting that he is.  It's worth doing some research.  Have a look at

Just because you had snow in April does not disprove anything, just as having a heatwave in summer doesn't prove anything the other way either.  There are cycles of weather, and cycles within cycles, all with natural variations.

Answer 4

Come on, Ben, local weather conditions are a poor indicator of global weather trends. The ice in the Arctic and Antarctic is a better indicator, and in both places it is melting apace, and has been for several years. And it is melting faster than predicted. Because of this melting, oceans are rising. Because oceans are rising, islands are disappearing.

Here is an example in your own country:

Answer 5

hmm. I think it is pretty obviously happening. Maybe if you traveled outside of just the one place you live you might change your mind

Answer 6

Look...

The more smoke we put into the atmosphere, the less the amount of sunlight that can bounce back up into space, which causes an "insulating" effect that is already melting away the edges of North and South Poles, which causes ocean currents to change, which further speeds up the process...

It's happening dude...

Slowly...but it's happening...

The evidence is clear...(but that doesn't mean that every place suddenly gets warmer...cold places and weather will still exist, just less of it all over...)

Answer 7

of course, the earth has been warming since the last ice age

Answer 8

Yeap it is definitely happening

Answer 9

No. Its a big money making scam in this country.

Answer 10

watch a video on youtube

george carlin - save the planet - he gives a good take on your question which i for one agree with

Answer 11

i agree

Answer 12

Folks - go and do some independent research and you will all realise that this has happened before

Chinese naval units were able to navigate over the North Pole 1500 years ago because there was no ice

Vikings lived on Greenland and had farms there - because there was no snow

Romans had vinyards in England because it was warm enough.

The greatest 'greenhouse gas' is WATER VAPOUR not CO2.

A man expels more CO2 cycling to work then a car would produce.

We NEED CO2 to keep this planet going - don't believe me? What would the plants breathe? You know, those things at the START of the food chain?

Stop just listening to the Dogma. A true scientist ALWAYS looks upon things skeptically, it is the default position of all real scientists. Question what you are told, look up alternate ideas and make up your own mind.

Figures produced have been manipulated to hide the inconvenient truth - the temperature has NOT risen significantly this century - this is evidenced by 'scientists' - NOT CLIMATOLOGISTS please note, now saying that the oceans are acting as a giant heat sink... except the oceans aren't actually getting any warmer.

Don't believe me? Good. I am right, but go look up the evidence to try and prove me wrong - go do some research.

Answer 13

it is totally happening... i mmean why else would the polar ice caps be melting. also global warming messes with weather.like where it never snows u might get snow or where u always snowws u might not get any or you might get to much.

Answer 14

all the global warming thingy is c**p. it is all natural. the term 'global warming' is certainly true, coz the rise in temperatures and the weird snowfalls are evident.  it is the stories the people say that are rubbish.

Answer 15

I believe it is

Answer 16

global warming is happening and has been happening...its something we cant really stop...but we can slow down...its not as obvious in some places as it is in others...new jersey hasnt had a decent snowfall in a couple of years..

Answer 18

No it doesn't  feel like it . In any case I don't believe whatever is supposed to be happening is anything to do with us.

I believe that the planet goes through cycles.

Answer 19

global warming is real, just think we went through an ice age and i don't see much of that ice left. The worlds temp. rises and falls its a fact of life, who knows if human increased it or anything the world may have still warmed without us.

Answer 20

Yeah i think it's happening.

Answer 21

I believe it's something "made up". Some people are trying to get "famous" and have airtime by yacking and yacking about this "so called" condition of the earth. I think these people are trying to instill fear in society and are nothing more than terroist.

Answer 22

Not really, and any changes are caused by natural earth cycles.

Answer 23

Yes I do believe it.  The weather was much more predictable when I was younger.

Answer 24

Yes

Answer 25

yes i belive its real just look at whats happining all around the earth like the ice caps melting the earth is heating up and if it keeps happining ice caps will melt and it will flood

Answer 26

Naw its not happening 1 big con.

Wake up its all about mind control (Recycle, Global warming, CCTV, speed cameras, traffic wardens, credit cards, the euro, taxes, wages payed into the bank, 100% loans, the smoking ban & persecution of all honest tax payers.

The new world order is here and things are not going to get any better.

Answer 27

if we are to believe what we see happening to the ice at the poles then yeah it`s happening.

Answer 28

Hello,

(ANS) The real evidence is now incontrovertible, 100% YES!. Man made global damage to the earths environment & deep under lying natural systems which balance the earth. I think we are NOW presently at the tipping point, the effects wont be stoppable now.

**The pollution man has caused has been going on for at least the last 200 years, if you want specifics. Then I would nail it firmly down the industrial revolution (the move from the land into towns & factories), followed by the invention of the internal combustion engine & cars, followed by the invention of the Jet engine. ALL these things have slowly contributed to the increase in CO2 levels.

Answer 29

It's just a moneymaking scam,dreamt up by politicians to bleed more taxes out of us.

Answer 30

not at all.  It's a huge scam by AlGore ....  Look, this Earth will perform just exactly as God had planned for it to.

Answer 31

yes i do. that's just one of the effects of global warming!

you need to educate yourself on it.

atch an inconvenient truth

it will prove it to you in a documentary form and explain it way better than i can right here

fact: practically every scientist agrees that it exists

yes, these are people who study this stuff as a career, and they're very intelligent people too.
