What is global warming?

Is it neccesarily human caused?

I have seen in movies where there is a storm from global warming, is that possible?

how long would that storm last if its true?

How could u build a shelted to with stand that much cold?

What are some of the effects of global warming?

Is global warming something that would come then go?

if so how long would it last?

is there any areas that would be safe from global warming on earth?

  1. That's a lot of stuff.  Most all of it is answered here:

    http://profend.com/global-warming/

    Here are the causes:

    Nobody is safe, but we can handle it if we work hard at reducing it, starting now.


  2. What is global warming?

    It is the percieved warming trend

    Is it neccesarily human caused?

    NO

    I have seen in movies where there is a storm from global warming, is that possible? \

    Yes, and though possible in the extreme, extemely unlikely.  Fantasy

    how long would that storm last if its true?

    Not true

    How could u build a shelted to with stand that much cold?

    Not needed

    What are some of the effects of global warming?

    North Dakota will be 25 below in February instead of 27 below.

    Is global warming something that would come then go?

    Yes

    if so how long would it last?

    It appears we are near the top of the the natural cycle and may begin cooling.  It is a cycle that last thousands of years.

    is there any areas that would be safe from global warming on earth?

    Everywhere is safe since warming is generally a good thing.  It is cooling that you really have to watch out for

    what other info can u give me about global warming?http://www.opinionjournal.com/extra/?id=...

    With as much junk that is spewing out there, it is not surprising that even scientists get snared by the prophets of gloom and doom.  It is nonsense with just a touch of science to add some credibilty.

  3. The theory of man-made global warming is false, it is based on falsified or incomplete data.  Lets take a look at what the global warming crowd claims, they say that the human output of CO2 is causing the greenhouse effect which is warming the planet.  To see how outrageous this claim is try to guess how much of our atmosphere is made up of CO2, the correct answer is 0.03% of our atmosphere, almost nothing.  How can such a small part of our atmosphere have such an effect on our entire planet, correct answer it can’t.  Greenhouse gases exist naturally and have always been in our atmosphere.  Greenhouse gases such as CH4 (methane), N2O (Nitrous Oxide), and water vapor are all put out into the atmosphere naturally in far greater concentrations than humans could ever match.  Let’s take a look at water vapor, water vapor makes up between 1-4% of the atmosphere far more than CO2.  Water vapor is given off into the atmosphere due to evaporation, so evaporation causes much more global warming than humans ever could.  Other natural sources such as volcanic eruptions and the decomposition of plant and animal matter also put far more greenhouse gases than humans ever could.  

    So what is causing global warming?  Well first of all the earth may not even be warming.  http://wwwghcc.msfc.nasa.gov/temperature...  This is a collection of global temperatures collected by NASA that shows a general cooling trend especially around the polar ice caps.  So assuming the earth is warming what could be causing it, the sun.  Look at this graph also put out by NASA: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2003/... it shows that the intensity of the sun is directly correlated to global temperatures and recent studies have shown that the sun is now warming than ever before, coincidence? I think not.  Also consider that the other planets in our solar system, Mars in particular, are also warming: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/...

    You have to keep in mind that the earth goes through natural cycles of warming and cooling, take for example the ice age and later warming of the earth enough to melt the ice.

    Advocates of global warming will try and post evidence but the fact is most evidence for global warming comes in the form of general statements like “think of your children/grandchildren” that try to guilt you into agreeing with them.  These ads are devoid of scientific proof and seek to toy with your conscience.  Every once in a while you will see a graph submitted as evidence mostly from http://www.ipcc.ch/.  Take a look for yourself, I search in vain for proof of global warming on this site, sure there are dozens of graphs showing the same data: CO2 rising along with global temperatures but where are the graphs for other greenhouse gases that make up a greater percentage of our atmosphere and are put out naturally, or graphs showing the percentage of greenhouse gases put out by humans verses the gases put out by natural sources.  These graphs are not included because they disprove the theory of man made global warming.  The IPCC has had a questionable past, it has published a deliberately falsified graph, the so called hockey stick graph, which left out a period of warming during the 1400’s.  This warming period in the 1400’s was more dramatic than what we are seeing today, and it took place long before humans industrialized.  This falsification was proven and a reprint of the graph appeared in the journal Nature.  You may have seen claims that there is a scientific consensus on global warming like this one: http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/fu... this is an absolute lie, do you need proof? Here http://www.oism.org/pproject/s33p36.htm the signatures of over 17,000 scientists who disagree with the theory of man made global warming (check out the report on this site it does an excellent job of disproving global warming).  You may have also seen reports about ice cores supposedly proving global warming, this is not true.  Here is the truth about ice cores http://www.john-daly.com/zjiceco2.htm.

    You may have the question why anyone would support this obviously false theory, the answer is money.  Average people with no scientific background are being converted to the global warming crowd by the dozens due to the repression of evidence against global warming.  This mass of people is the reason why notable people are jumping on the global warming bandwagon.  Politicians are supporting global warming for votes, scientists are joining for media time and grants, and CEO’s are pledging their allegiance to gain customers who want to shop where the environment is being supported.

    You may also wonder why I care, you may think we can only help the environment if we agree with global warming what’s wrong with that?  I want to distinguish between global warming and helping the environment.  I have no problem with environmentalist causes, in fact I support them, but global warming is taking this idea to the  extreme.  If you were to follow the guidelines set forth by people like Al Gore your lifestyle would be, these people want to tell you what light bulbs to use.  The main reason however is money, why waste millions on studying global warming when we could be rebuilding third world countries and helping the poor.  Global warming is a fear tactic used to get your money and your vote by unscrupulous members of society.  Hopefully this will just fade away like the global cooling scare which was brought upon us in the 1970’s by the same sort of people using the same tactics.  A last link  http://www.worldclimatereport.com/ possibly the best resource for answering many of the questions raised by global warming.  I urge anyone who believes in man-made global warming to look into some of the resources I have presented.  Do not sacrifice your money, time, vote, and conscience to the greedy members of society who are blinding you to the truth for their own greed.

  4. there is a lot of evidence of man made climate change .and there are many reasons to hide the truth

    scientists who work for politicians ,get paid by these politicians and they have downplayed the facts because solutions are expensive and means change and change effects many peoples incomes,and upsets profit margins,so most of the world is kept in the dark of the real things that are going on.for political and economic reasons

    Global warming is a very complex collection of many effects

    this text only covers some aspects of global warming ,mainly agriculture i.e.effects of deforestation and subsequent man made desertification

    water and air polution such as caused by

    industrial contamination ,the contaminating effects of the cities(the internal combustion engine) ,are other stories,

    and all of these are also man made ,such as the high industrial chimneys pumping contamination into the clouds and the burning of tires,some of this polution has been found in the ice in the polar regions

    there are natural cycles in the planets life

    but a lot is influenced by mans existance ,and this is increasing with overpopulation,putting strains on Natural resources and increasing contaminations as well as destructions of essential componants the ensure living conditions for all life forms

    climate change is caused in great parts by desertification ,and most desertification is caused by man

    the thinner ozone layer helps to speed this up.and this is caused mainly by air polution ,also as a result of mans actions

    DEFORESTATION

    in the past

    the Building of the Spanish Armada deforrested Spain

    the Phoenician trading fleet turned Lebanon in a dessert

    Ganges Khan put everything to the sword and torch, then filled the wells with sand,

    the sun finished of the job and whole countries turned to wastelands.

    Today ,

    Slash and burn destroys the protective vegetation (which helps to form the soil ),

    leaving it open to the Sun ,and then ,wind and, water erosion.

    The Plough turns the soil ,killing micro-biotic life (essential to soil building) and accelerates the drying out .

    Pressures of the :vehicles, cattle and rain impact brings the salt to the surface.

    Mono cultures ,aided by chemicals Exhaust and pollutes the soil .

    Adding to this the effects of overgrazing has resulted in large scale desertification.

    and there is less and less water (because of deforestation),to irrigate this production ,Farmers

    are overpumping deep carbon aquifiers

    and plowing more and more unstable lands going into the jungles and onto mountain slopes

    expanding populations and expanding farming ,that has to keep pace with the expanding populations are very strong forces that encroach upon the rainforest's

    clearing them for farming and settlement areas .

    Rainforest's always are in third world countries and always in third world countries corruption and the need for money s highest

    in North Africa,India,Mexico ,millions of people are effected by land loss and desertification and some have died as a result

    ,the Sahara is growing by 7 kilometers a year

    and most  of the desserts we know are a results of mans actions ,and they are increasing ,not getting less ,in the dinosaurs days ,there were no desserts.

    collectively this planet is drying up ,

    each degree rise in temperature means 10%crop loss

    and there is less and less water (because of deforestation),to irrigate this production ,

    and there are less and less farmers to do it..

    Arable lands and their farms are lost all over the globe. Many farmers sons abandon farming and head for the cities.

    Northern China is drying up, what once were millions of food producing people, are now hungry refugees ,running for their lives from the all consuming dust storms.

    This will have a great effect on world food prices when they start buying at what ever cost, to feed their people.

    Africa and Asia are loosing millions of people to AIDS , many of whom were food producers.

    The farmers that are left have to feed some 70 million more people than the year before but with less topsoil.

    Over the last half century,

    Population growth & rising incomes have tripled world grain demand from 640 million tons to 1,855 million

    In the near future the global farming community will not be able to feed every body ,food prices will continue to rise. .

    RISING SEAS

    The northpole is melting ,and we will know it without ice in our life times.

    this does not affect the sea level because it is ice that is already in the water.but the melting ice from Green land and the south pole ,are another matter

    Global warming could be slowed down to some extent,but it will mean global co operation between all countries ,and taking into account human nature and the world politics ,it is unlikely that this will happen,

    At least not untill we are all in the middle of planetary disastres and it becomes a battle for the survival of humanity every where,instead of just some third world countries
