Global warming? just another way to flog tax out of the public?

Question

i cant believe the fuss that is being done about global warming! cant people see that it is just another way to flog tax out of us? why people are hurrying to recycle their rubbish, drive miles around to find a recycling centre when millions of people are dying form hunger , ethnic cleansing, woman being forced into abortion, abused children that need proper care and help, war on terror etc ... global warming should be the last thing on our mind, lets fix our immediate problems first where our fellow human beings are suffering then we can take care of this futile problem. my opnion on why people are buying this rubbish: some people recycle not because they want to save the planet but baecause by doing so they will feel better about themselves and think they are better person, it has got nothing to do with global warming it is pure selfish act to make ourselves feel much better. whats your opnion

there is more evidence suggesting global cooling.

Answer 2

Biggest con trick since Piltdown Man.

Answer 3

It's proven science.

Do you think these guys are idiots or liars? They all say global warming is real, and mostly caused by us.

The National Academy of Sciences, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Institute of Physics, the American Chemical Society, the American Geophysical Union, the American Meteorological Association, etc. EVERY major scientific organization.

In order to believe that this is a hoax, you have to believe that the vast majority of scientists are idiots or liars. And that the vast majority of world leaders are being taken in, or are engaged in a worldwide conspiracy to oppress their citizens.  I don't believe that, do you?  If so, no scientific data will persuade you.

It's like saying the Earth is 6000 years old, and fossils, etc., were created to "test our faith".  If you believe that, no scientific argument will persuade you otherwise.

Answer 4

My opinion is that you are totally wrong. The only reason that I can imagine anyone would post a question like this is because someone paid then to do it......

   Plus, many of the reasons you have given for the present loss of life around the world could be blamed on climate change.

   I think that you are the selfish person and not the people that recycle to help make the planet a better place.

Answer 5

Global warming is true. how much are we contributing to it remains a question. Careful with looking at all those graphs, many of them don't show the whole picture, and can be misleading. The planet naturally heats up and cools down, it's what its been doing since it formed. During global warming some parts of the worlds' tempuratures will dramitically increase, and other parts will decrease. The earth is never at equillibrium and is constantly changing to try and reach this equilibrium, but too many factors (natural and un-natural) are preventing it. Please do not get your facts from politicians or movies, such as "The Day After Tommorow". Listen to a geologist (like me), or better yet a published geologist. You can find articles online and in mags such as geosciencesworld.gov, or Scientic American. Look at it this way. The world was never built to sustain life for very long, it shifts dramatically too frequently. If you think that the extinction of the dino's is the largest extinction to have occurred your wrong. There has been 4-5 mass extinctions in the past that don't include the dino's. So how exactly are we going to stop global warming? This is an event that has been taking place for billions of years. That would be like stopping the world from spinning. It is way beyond us. So perhaps we need to find different ways of adapting to the ever changing environment of our plant. Genetic manipulation? Now if your argument is simply pollution, well ya, we need to cut that c**p out. I am more worried about breathing in all this c**p then global warming.

Answer 6

I sometimes feel the same as you. But yet Global Warming is a big problem that needs to be sorted.

Answer 7

Global warming may well be happening, but I don't believe that we are causing it and it's certainly being overhyped by the media.

Answer 8

What's happening now goes on every couple of centuries and even milleniums!!! a few hundred years ago it got cold enough to skate on the thames, but before that even britain was hot enough to have vinyards and actually be SUNNY in summer. i think global warming is just a fat hoax made by FAT politicans. we dont even make half the carbon emmisions on the planet. people are sooooo gullable.

Answer 9

Yes.

Answer 10

Exactly.  No one can predict the future.  No one knows if it will be warmer or colder 10 years from now.

The only reason to push so called "Global warming" is to fuel hate for corporations like Exxon in order to get popular support for stealing their money, and raising taxes on the evil "rich".

The free market is fixing "global warming" by providing customers with greener products that they are demanding.
