Is it not highly suspicious that global warming is NOT happening in the USA?

Question

According to the majority of yahoo participants ,Climate change or Global warming ,is a hoax ,a political lie ,false ,and simply not happening.A fantasy for melodramatic idiots.there is nothing to worry about and water or food will never be scarce

So lets asume that they are correct.

they also say that God is in control and loves them .

Then WHY is it happening in Mexico,India,Africa,China and many other places ?

They have suffered natural disastres,floods,heat and cold waves ,unusual desertification and many people and animals have died already

Does this mean that God is working for America and is destroying the rest of the world ???

Or is there a more sinister purpose for HAARP

LOL.

And what can the rest of the world do to remedy this ??,must we eliminate the source of the problem

Answer 1

****nut. What the h**l do you think Hurricane Katrina was?

Answer 2

No one actually disputes global warming, just that humans and animals cause it.

By blaming humans, the plan is to put extra taxes on all of the civilized world to slow progress.  Also there are billions in grants to study "man-made" global warming, and everyone wants to get their hands on all that money.

I don't think anyone is buying that humans cause global warming with all the science we have at our disposal that refutes the whole concept.  

It's when these issues get political that people make movies full of lies to support the myth.

Without scientific proof that the warming is caused by humans, it becomes a religion for many.

Answer 3

it's a scary idea and the media now encourages people to only think now. Right now they're not having to deal with it and don't  know what it is. So what if future generations have to pay the price, right?

Answer 4

Heres proof that global warming is in full effect;

1. Here in the Bay Area, Ca, temperatures were much lower 5 and even 10 years ago.

2. Around the world animals mating habits are changing due to the significant climate changes.

3. Catastrophic weather patterns are happening every year.

4. Weather has began to be pretty much unpredictable my meteorologist.

Answer 5

Incase you didn't notice, "God" doesn't exist.

Answer 6

yeah, but global warming is happening in the US.

If it hadn't been though, who knows, maybe people believe in how powerful the US is on a global scale.

Answer 7

The USA has such an extreme variation in temperatures (from the desert to the mountains) that any rise in temperature is barely noticable. However it is happening. Some areas in Alaska are feeling the effects big time. Most of the problems hit the LEDCs, the least responsible, whilst the biggest polluter and problem the USA consumes 25% of the world's resources and suffers the least. Sounds like twisted irony if you ask me.

Answer 8

Yes.. it's true!  There were no natural disasters of any kind before humanity industrialized.  Really!!  Some idiot on yahoo! answers said so!

Answer 9

USA is a BIG country and in any debate there, it must naturally take a long time for people to decide where they stand.  In many ways I do not blame Americans for their uncertainty, because they are bombarded by differing 'scientific' opinion all the time.

Global Warming may for some, just be another facet of Political Correctness, which they may not support or want.

Many Americans have actually started to do something to turn back the tide of Global Warming and are converting their vehicles to run on recycled cooking oil or ethanol.

Texas farmers who are tuned into the ethanol potential are already growing vast acerages of corn to be turned into fuel.

How history has changed.  When Henry Ford produced his first Model T-Ford back in c1905 he told the world and his dog that his new car will run on ethanol, claiming that 'gas' [petrol] was a fuel of the 'past'.  He was right then and it is right now.

Brazilians run their vehicles on ethanol [no oil] resulting in lower pollution levels there.

It's not just our cars we need to have a look at, it's other emissions too.

Americans, who's nation has lead the Western World for so long, may feel they are under siege from opinion outside their own country.  I am not going to be part of any plot which makes Americans feel 'guilty' just because they have the world's highest living standards.  They worked hard for what they have achieved.

There's not a lot we can do about 'natural disasters', they happen.  Here in UK we have always been subject to serious flooding.  The problem is that as our population has grown, we have seen fit to build on the ancient flood plains of our rivers and waterways.  This inevitably means that sooner or later such land will flood.

In my youth back in the 1950s and 60s, flooding in London was common.  The Thames Barrier put an end to that but it may not be able to hold back the tide in future years.  We will need a much bigger barrier, otherwise London, much of which is built on a flood plain, will be under water up to the second story.

If we go back in history, the builders of Westminster Abbey, which stands opposite the Houses of Parliament, is actually built on what was then a 'bog'.  Soggy land, into which the Medieval builders had first to place vast amounts of bundles of sticks to expunge the water before building could begin.  The Palace of Westminster is right at the river's edge.  Flooding is a serious threat to that part of London.

Thankfully, my house is on high ground.

Answer 10

WHICH GOD?

The GOD of those Countries?  Perhaps you TOO Have been DUPED by the Lie of Global Warming?

ONCE AGAIN....

Global Warming MEANS "World Wide Warming!" It is ONLY A Political Term = NOT based in Real Science!

The EARTH is covered by "Three Quarters WATER!" Basic Science, it takes ONE-Btu to raise One Cubic Centimeter ONE Degree Centigrade!

HOW many "Gazillion Cubic Centimeters are there ONLY on the Surface of Planet Earth COVERED by 3/4 Water?"

HOW many Btu's would it take TO RAISE THE SURFACE TEMPERATURE ONE DEGREE?

DO THE MATH!

And, were are the Million TEMPERATURE MEASURING SITES on the Many Oceans THAT TELL US THAT THE OCEAN TEMPERATURES ARE RISING? Not!

Oh yes, POLAR temperatures have varied LESS Than one degree in the past 100-Years. Noticed I said VARIED, = NOT RISEN!

Thanks, RR

Answer 11

What do you mean 'NOT happening in the USA ?' ?

It is. At this moment.

Don't you realize the term 'GLOBAL' warming means it affects us GLOBALLY ?

The reason you didn't notice is that because you only look for the major sign of global warming. But I wonder how the heck did you not link Katrina for the effect of global warming on US ?

Hurricane pattern such as El Nino and Katrina have shifted dramatically because of global warming. In the last century we have none of this problem. Of course there's still hurricanes and other natural phenomenon like tsunami and the like, but the nature was still pretty much balanced.

Amazing what a mere 100 years of increased pollution can do to damage the balance of nature.

The melting of the polar ice is just the beginning. It adds up the total volume of sea water which resulted in more evaporation on one side of the world and less evaporation in the other. It also effect the changes in deep sea current.

Those changes would ventually became El Nino, draught on one side, torrential rain on the other, and of course, Katrina.

See this link for minor global warming sign on US region and maybe you'd get the picture that it is happening. On all over the world.

Maybe the majority of Yahoo participant you encountered did not have adequate info on global warming. Or maybe they just don't want to see the truth and live to face the consequences.

What can we do about it ? Well, we can try balancing the nature. You may think one person effort is useless. It is not. We have to start by ourselves. Only then we can spread the word and make others believe.

You don't have to rally or join greenpeace and be a treehugger. No, no.. Just do the simple thing. Plant a tree a month. Conserve fuel and other form of energy. Recycle.

How do you want the earth be inherited to your children and grandchidren ?

Answer 12

yaaa bush producing lot off weapon to distroy the world!!!

plus he told other country not to produce nuclear weapon but he can produce the same thing!!! *tut* hole!!!

thats y too hot!!!

Answer 13

Don't forget that temperatures on other planets in our solar system are increasing too. We need to fix that too.

Answer 14

It is happening in the US.  Among other things drought is becoming a real problem.

To those who claim it isn't caused by man.  99+% of scientists around the world believe global warming is real and mostly caused by us.  And any number of very distinguished people, too.

"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 and the first Commander of the Naval Space Command

Here are two summaries of the mountain of data that convinced Admiral Truly, short and long.

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

Jerry Mahlman, NOAA
