For people who does not believe in global warming, why?

Question

I really really don't want to believe it because it scares me so much because I want a family in the future and I'm only 14 and I don't wanna die when I'm like only 40 so why do some people not believe in global warming? Can you please explain? What are some things I could do to help prevent it?

Answer 1

Because there is no proof. Because scientists do NOT agree.

Because the evidence is against it.

Answer 2

OK I 'LL WRITE THIS BIG FOR ALL YOU DUMB f***s WHO DONT BELIEVE IN GLOBAL WARMING!!!! ITS REAL, YOU ARE IGNORANT MISS INFORMED WHITE TRASH. PLEESE KILL YOURSELVES IMEDIATELY SO THE REST OF US CAN CLEAN UP THE MESS! ARE YOU A SCIENTIST ? NO! SO WHO ARE YOU TO DISAGREE WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO'VE STUDIED THIS SUBJECT FOR YEARS WHEN YOU JUST DISMISS  WHAT WILL BE THE DEMISE FOR SO MANY JUST SO YOU CAN HAPPILY PULLUTE AND PIG OUT! PEOPLE+GLUTTONY=DESTRUCTION!!!

Answer 3

The GW folks are loud and very vocal. They omit facts that don't aid but hinder their point of view. One such is the report that the oceans are in fact cooling not warming. Also that last year was one of the coolest and negated the last 100 years of warming.

These are the same type of persons that said the earth was flat, we would never travel faster than the speed of sound, an ice age was coming(1970's) and that a nuclear devise would set off a chain reaction that would burn off the atmosphere. Worry not. Man is rather resilient.

Answer 4

Nothing.  Run like mad from your friends deeply involved in GW.   It is supposed to scare you!  GW is more about politics and money than it is about the environment.  If you are scared you are willing to do things that you wouldn't normally.  Don't fall into their trap.

Good luck.

Answer 5

Global warming is indeed real and has been documented with ice cores dating back tens of thousands of years.

What is NOT real is the quackery that humans caused (or can even affect) global warming.

The scare tactics being perpetrated upon us are only a money/power grab scheme by bottom-feeder politicians accompanied by their so-easily-led sheeple who take their prattle, even their movies, as hard science.

To find that my statement above is true, follow the money.

See just who it is who will profit from the carbon offset, carbon tax, & etc.

Here is truth about global warming:

Global warming is one-half of the climatic cycle of warming and cooling.

The earth's mean temperature cycles around the freezing point of water.

This is a completely natural phenomenon which has been going on since there has been water on this planet. It is driven by the sun.

Our planet is currently emerging from a 'mini ice age', so is

becoming warmer and may return to the point at which Greenland is again usable as farmland (as it has been in recorded history).

As the polar ice caps decrease, the amount of fresh water mixing with oceanic water will slow and perhaps stop the thermohaline cycle (the oceanic heat 'conveyor' which, among other things, keeps the U.S. east coast warm).

When this cycle slows/stops, the planet will cool again and begin to enter another ice age.

It's been happening for millions of years.

The worrisome and brutal predictions of drastic climate effects are based on computer models, NOT CLIMATE HISTORY.

As you probably know, computer models are not the most reliable of sources, especially when used to 'predict' chaotic systems such as weather.

Global warming/cooling, AKA 'climate change':

Humans did not cause it.

Humans cannot stop it.

Answer 7

Sorry but plants have already done it for U...

Answer 8

The man made global warming theory is dependant on the claim that CO2 stays in the atmosphere for 50 -200 years (IPCC figure). There have been about 3 dozen papers published on this topic using a variety of measuring techniques, they all show figures varying between 5 - 15 years. There has not been a single paper published which provides experimental evidence for the 50 -200 year figure.

References to this issue can be found in 'Global warming: the continuing debate' from the European Science and Environment Forum.

Answer 9

First, we need to control emissions.  We need to reduce our fossil fuel consumption.  Global warming is not the reason to do so.  I will base my argument from IPCC figures.  

1.  The temperature change has been .6 +/- .2 deg C over the laste centurey.  

2.  CO2 has gone from ~285 ppm to ~385 ppm

3.  This has an effect of 6.3 * LN (CO2now/285).  The important thing to note this is not linear and we seen 45% or so the effect of CO2 reaching 570 ppm.  The first 100 increase will have almost the same effect as the next 200.

4.  Prior to 1940 we saw an increase in temperature of about .25 deg C.  The carbon increase of 5-10 ppm was to small to account for this.  We can say almost certain that .2 deg C was natural.

5.  The CO2 effect to this point would have been about .4-.5 deg C.  

6.  Other greenhouse gasses will also have a .05-.15 deg C effect.

Add this up, we get .2 natural + .45 from CO2 + .1 from other gasses= .75 deg C change should have happened.  Some say sulfates cooled the earth, the effect in 1995-2000 would have been small probable less than .1 deg C.  Total change of .65 deg C

Why is this important?  If the temperature change is actually .65 deg C or less we have a net negative feedback to warming.  If the .65 or greater we have a positive feedback. Remember the change has been .6 +/- .2 deg C.  

Without positive feedback the temperature change will be about 1 deg C from doubling.  In other words about 1 deg F hotter than today.

Answer 10

You're not going to die when you're 40, and oh by the way it's cooler this year than it was when you were 4.

Answer 11

Ok first stop using plastic bags try to walk rather than use a car. car pool some things like that will help

Answer 12

Global warming exists - period

Martian warming also exists.

Our solar system has been going thru these warming and cooling cycles for billions of years - long before the invention of the SUV  -  Mankind in its arrogance has the silly idea that it is caused by us.  This is absolute c**p.  Cleaning up the air so we so do not have to breathe polutants is a good idea and the USA the cleanest air of any populated country.  If you don't believe me go to Europe and get caught in a traffic jam.

CO2 is not a pollutant and we do not produce nor can we ever produce enought to make a difference.  It is c**p and it is taking hard earned money from you.  I used to think the story about the naked king was a fairy tale until global warming.  I will believe it when I see SUVs on Mars.

Answer 13

You and all the rest of us will be here

.. . ...

To see it happen

.. . ..

And it will take a couple more generation of family to see the real end results of Global Warming

.. . ..

And it always happens when the end is with in eyesight the whole world will be on the so called Band Wagon to get things straighted out

.. . ..

And by then our knowledge and inventions will of given us the ability to do the transition to a new power source easily

-- with out all kinds of

kicking and crying of leave the  covers alone

wanting to sleep for a few more years

.. . ..

Answer 14

Rather than going by what someone will answer with bias here, why not Google it yourself to make up your own mind.

It should scare you, because the facts (you'll see once you research for yourself) show that this problem is real and needed to be acted upon yesterday!

Go by the information given by large and valid sources of science, not a one-man publication.

There are many steps to take to slow down this process. These can also be found by googling something like: 'going green'.

There will always be those who deny global warming. They will throw out information as if they know what they're talking about, that's why I urge you to research the subject on-line yourself and draw your own conclusions.

Answer 15

wel,,,one wise men once said

that 85% of ppl in states belive in global warming n den d rest 15% work in white house...

so its d us gov which is misguidin d ppl...

Answer 16

Ignored facts about global warming!!!

A small to medium sized automobile that gets about 25 MPG and the engine is developing approximately 20 BHP wile consuming 2.5 GPH at freeway speed. The amount of thermal energy being used is 20 X 2546 BTU/HP = 50,920 BTU wile consuming 2.5 GPH at 120,000 BTU per gallon for a total of 300,000 BTU. Admittedly these are approximations. Some figures are that the Otto cycle efficiency is as high as 38% when operating at max torque. But most agree that 20 to 25% is normal operation.

To restate, 50,000 BTU is being used while 300,000 is being created. The 250,000 BTU of heat energy remaining is being dumped into the environment.
