How many inches of 'Global Warming' have you shoveled this year?

Question

We just got another 10 inches of "Global Warming" this morning. Do you think Al Goar has time to help me shovel off my driveway?

BWAHAHAHA!

Answer 1

I often wonder where the global warming is when I'm standing outside in -10 wind chills and it's so cold my dog doesn't even want to go out.

Answer 2

I think there is a lot of BS shovelling for those pushing GW.

Answer 3

Ha Ha. But if there correct you might just have to shovel 20+ feet of it. Who knows ? even the big eggheads can't figure out whether it is happening, the global effects or whether it will bring on a new Ice Age.

By the way. Are eggs good for your health this week ?

I just can't keep up with it. Are they healthy or not ?

Answer 4

global warming is retarded...if god wants the world to end then he'll end it not fricken global warming:'

Answer 5

There will  be more snow in the winter due to humidity for a while, then it will turn to rain in the next decade or two. If it was really, really cold, then there would be no snow at all.

Answer 6

so far 57 inches, and also 300 more gallons of LP for heating.maybe we will get some of the warming next year !!! the world went though the last ice age and survived, and I think we will make it through the global warming too !!!

Answer 7

57" so far.

Answer 8

Because of questions like this, there is more BS being shoveled than there is snow...

Answer 9

ZERO

Answer 10

Mr E. You should be aware by now that Global Warming is responsible for everything : Droughts and deluge, excess snow and deficit snowfalls, warmer than average temps and colder than average temps.  Earthquakes, hurricanes, insect extinctions and insect population explosions.  You have obviously been listening to the right-wing conservative war-mongering oil executives. Shame on you!

Answer 11

Funny, my area got less snow than we have had since I moved in, almost 40 years ago. Your immediate neghborhood is not the globe any more than mine is.

Answer 12

Common skeptic argument:  It's cold this winter.  It's cold in Kalamazoo.

"Does this even deserve an answer? If we must ..."

"Answer: The chaotic nature of weather means that no conclusion about climate can ever be drawn from a single data point, hot or cold. The temperature of one place at one time is just weather, and says nothing about climate, much less climate change, much less global climate change."

davidost   thinks it is all alarmist hullabaloo over nothing and assumes that climate scientists are making outlandish claims about the effects.  

Not true.

http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2008/0... The Cold Truth about Global Warming by Joseph Romm

"The big difference I have with the doubters is they believe the IPCC reports seriously overstate the impact of human emissions on the climate, whereas the actual observed climate data clearly show the reports dramatically understate the impact."

"One of the most serious results of the overuse of the term "consensus" in the public discussion of global warming is that it creates a simple strategy for doubters to confuse the public, the press and politicians: Simply come up with as long a list as you can of scientists who dispute the theory. After all, such disagreement is prima facie proof that no consensus of opinion exists."

"So we end up with the absurd but pointless spectacle of the leading denier in the U.S. Senate, James Inhofe, R-Okla., who recently put out a list of more than 400 names of supposedly "prominent scientists" who supposedly "recently voiced significant objections to major aspects of the so-called 'consensus' on man-made global warming."

"As it turned out, the list is both padded and laughable, containing the opinions of TV weathermen, economists, a bunch of non-prominent scientists who aren't climate experts, and, perhaps surprisingly, even a number of people who actually believe in the consensus."

"But in any case, nothing could be more irrelevant to climate science than the opinion of people on the list such as Weather Channel founder John Coleman or famed inventor Ray Kurzweil (who actually does "think global warming is real"). Or, for that matter, my opinion -- even though I researched a Ph.D. thesis at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography on physical oceanography in the Greenland Sea."

"What matters is scientific findings -- data, not opinions. The IPCC relies on the peer-reviewed scientific literature for its conclusions, which must meet the rigorous requirements of the scientific method and which are inevitably scrutinized by others seeking to disprove that work. That is why I cite and link to as much research as is possible, hundreds of studies in the case of this article. Opinions are irrelevant."

  

And I'm sure all these scientific organizatioins are just part of a big scam or hoax.  Get real

Answer 13

Please go look up the definitions of these two words:

Weather

Climate

When you're done with that, look up these terms:

Local

Global

Then these:

Global warming

Snow

That bit of research should answer your question.
