Question

Everyone says that global warming is taking place but most of the world is shivering with exceptional cold?

Answer 1

god i love how Americans (im guessing) have already accepted that china is the world.

who cares if global temps are going up as long as there is one snow covered place in the world it will be proof that there is no global warming.

PS where i live it is currently about 27 degrees C. dosent that prove global warming.( ill ignore the fact that thats normal for this time of the year.)

edit you carnt argue with data. http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/mpg/...

http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2007/

btw all whether is effected by global warming and not caused by it.

Answer 2

most of the world shivering? really?

I must be imagining the hot-balmy temperature in the tropics & most of the southern hemisphere, and our unseasonably early spring and lack of snow this winter then.

People won't understand climate change if their world is limited to their backyard/NBC.

Answer 3

u fool its winter!!!!!!! lol but actually even if it was summer it would not meean its getting warmer bcoz Global warming is changing the climates everywhere. It may change the climate of a particular country to b warmer or it may change it 2 b colder. but u must know global warming or not if u r on the northern hemisphere right now then it will b winter and winter months are the coldest of the year!

Answer 4

yes, it might be winter, but this is the coldest winter we have had in quite a while.  Apparently the same thing is happening in china.   Its not cold weather, its below average cold weather.  And below average temperatures shouldnt happen with global warming because supposedly, the co2 is warming the air where ever the sunlight is passing through it.  December was below average, january was below average.  And it wont stop snowing in the rockies.

Hey though, im pretty sure they will come up with some way to make the average for 2008 the hottest on record.  Yup, gengi, all weather, whether its normal or extreme is caused by global warming, didnt you hear?

Answer 5

Global warming is over.  The Sun, not man is the cause of any temperature changes on Earth.

We should expect a cooler climate now as the Sun is past its peak output.

Many people have a lot invested in this pseudo science.  It will take some time before they become irrelevant.

Answer 6

It's winter in the Northern Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere.  Global warming is never expected to end those cycles.

Answer 7

Follow the money trail

Al Gore owns a carbon credit company and has a house that consumes more energy than a neighborhood.  Yet he justifies it by buying carbon credits from his own company.

FOLLOW THE MONEY TRAIL

Environmentalism is a religion and like all religions fear increases the flow of money

Answer 8

Climate Chaos. China battling coldest winter in 100 years.

Global warming is the proccess, Climate change or climate chaos is the result.

Answer 9

This is a stupid question and so gets stupid answers.  The weather in any particular place or time has little to do with global trends of long periods of time.  

There have been at least a dozen variations on this stupid question today.  "It's cold at my house does that prove Global Warming is a hoax?"

See what I mean?

It untimately doesn't matter because we have to stop destroying the environment , which we are already doing regardless of whether we are causing global warming.  The exact same measures that are being recommended  to alleviate global warming are just that which we should be doing anyway.  I would think this is obvious.  Stopping the burning of fossil fuels will help save the environment in countless ways and make us energy independent to boot.

We don't have a choice based on whether global warming is caused by us.  There is no question what is causing the other forms of ecological disaster which we are facing.  This is the biggest challenge man has ever faced global warming or no global warming.  I hope we're up to it.

Answer 10

global warming is b.s.
