  1. Global warming is not as serious as the alarmists would have you believe. They tend to cherry-pick data for maximum shock value, and exaggerate the facts to paint worst-case apocalyptic scenarios. A realistic worst-case temperature increase is around 1.5° C (2.7° F), and a realistic sea level rise (per NOAA data) is about 215mm (8.5 inches) by the end of the century.

    Further, science has failed to show a genuine causal relationship between human activity and global warming. While there is a small amount of warming going on it is within historical limits, so its correlation with natural cycles is a better fit with the data. In other words, many find it difficult to believe that humans are the cause of a warming trend when it has happened before without human influence.

    Also, the issue has become terribly politicized, and the science has been misused to promote political agendas. The true agenda of global governance is too thinly veiled for many people to believe that the agenda is “save the earth.” Jacques Chirac pointed out that climate change is less about saving the planet than the real agenda behind the environmental movement and global warming: “creating world government.”


  2. DON'T BE A LITTERBUG!

  3. when politiciens controls that this is the catastrophy !!!

    Do what you see is OK to do, don't listen to the politiciens in this issue because like usual they are liers.

    When they say its serious, it's not, and when they say it's not so it is.

    Good Luck

  4. I would say both.  Although I'm a Conservative and a Republican politically, I don't buy into the bronze age view of society touted by the spokesmen of the extreme right these days.  When you find yourself to the Right of Pat Robertson, Newt Gingrich, George Bush and the Southern Baptists you can look to your Left and you'll find Mussolini.  At the same time I doubt that Socialized solutions work very well for most problems compared to a well developed sense of civic responsibility.  Of course its serious, and you should be afraid.  Then you should get to work.  If you let yourself get sidetracked into discussions about the nature of reality with those who deny it you become part of the problem, just as they are.  Were it not for them the USA would not trail Nations that weren't even industrialized when I was in school.

  5. it is very serious. because of it many animals are dying and many of them are getting extinct. there is water shortage in many areas. floods in the sahara deserts. Thick snowfall in U.A.E. Some places there is less rainfalll some places there is alot of rainfall. But we do not care about it.

  6. Serious.

    This is science and what counts is the data.

    "I wasn’t convinced by a person or any interest group—it was the data that got me. I was utterly convinced of this connection between the burning of fossil fuels and climate change. And I was convinced that if we didn’t do something about this, we would be in deep trouble.”

    Vice Admiral Richard H. Truly, USN (Ret.)

    Former NASA Administrator, Shuttle Astronaut

    Here are two summaries of the mountain of peer reviewed data that convinced Admiral Truly and the vast majority of the scientific community, short and long.

    There's a lot less controversy about this is the real world than there is on Yahoo answers:

    And vastly less controversy in the scientific community than you might guess from the few skeptics talked about here:

    "There's a better scientific consensus on this [climate change] than on any issue I know...  Global warming is almost a no-brainer at this point.  You really can't find intelligent, quantitative arguments to make it go away."

    Dr. Jerry Mahlman, NOAA

  7. My personal opinion it is very serious. I can tell because in the middle of december I can wear shorts outside. Or the fact I have only seen it snow 3 times this winter and hasnt been enough to throw a snowball! Also, rivers and creeks are drying up! We need that water. Especially since we will be living on the sun!! I\

  8. It's serious very serious.

  9. it is a bit of both

  10. Global warming is a natural stage the Earth goes through and has happened many times before and in fact has been hotter than it is now.Remember, we are still comming out of the last ice age so naturally the planet will warm up. The issue is how much is the human race contributing to this warming up process.

  11. We have had two brutally cold winters in Chicago - no warming here.

    The problem with all the data they give us is they have no constant.

    They can not say this is exactly what this glacier looked like at this date 10000000 years ago.  They have to extrapolate assumptions.  And this can only ever lead to theories.

    Maybe periodic melting of the icecaps is part of how Mother Nature takes care of business.

    At the end of the day they are not worried about the planet, but their ability to live the way want on her.

    I can't imagine Mother Nature doesn't know best.
