  1. well first,its not easy at all!and second,its a theory,not a fact,so not everyone agrees with it.


  2. No, that's not true. Global warming will be very difficult to stop. First off, cutting emissions will not stop it. It will merely slow the progression of it. As long as we have any emissions at all global warming will continue, which means scientists will have to learn to suck carbon dioxide out of the air. Additionally, most people in these times do want to stop it. Some are reluctant to give up their lifestyles, however, and that selfishness and short term thinking overrides their wanting to stop this crisis. Many people, however, seem to be working, at least a bit, to stop global warming, so there is hope.

  3. It's a nature's natural phenomena.

    If is say... Why can't we stop global earthquakes,Eruption of Volcano,Tsunami,Hurricane,Meteors ? It's so easy and no one wants to!?

    what we experienced now has happened from the past and you cannot blame human because the CO2 emmision is only a small part of global warming cycle.

  4. Sorry I agree it need to stop but IT'S NOT EASY!

    Are you still driving a car

    Are you still using Plastic

    Are you still using hairspray

    do YOU use ANY type of Gasoline

    Are you a Vegeterian

    For most people it;s very difficult but I think we can get there with a little more education and encouragement.

  5. Global warming (and cooling) is not fake, it is well documented.  The real question is how much do humans contribute to global warming.  If we significantly contribute to global warming then of course we would want to take proper action to reduce our impact.

    We contribute 6% or .28% (if you leave out water vapor) to our planets CO2 levels.  The sun heats the planet and during high sun spot activity the planet heats even more than "usual".

    With that being said, we cannot stop global warming without blocking out the sun.  Stopping global warming is not easy and people do want it stopped but they too cannot block out the sun.

    As to killing our animals.... Not much we can do about that either.  Put some in a zoo and wait it out a few hundred years.

  6. It is easy, I totally agree, people just over complicate things it. If we got the whole to do their part, our world would be in so much better shape. We just need to redefine the stupid ideas of what people think a life style should be. Like super big electric wasting houses and gas drinking monster cars.

    Yeah that probably won't do everything that needs to be done, but it'll be a h**l of a lot better than it was.

    So heck yea, we should stop global warming!

  7. It's not easy, but the first answer above is wrong.

    The cost to reduce global warming is manageable without major damage to the economy.  Among other things, we would reap huge benefits from moving away from dependence on expensive and unstable oil.  So the "net" cost would be far less.

    The cost of dealing with unreduced global warming is what would drive a worldwide depression.  And damage to agriculture would cause death from starvation in poor countries, and massive global instability as desperate starving people flee across national borders.  Detailed references about all that here, from a variety of independent sources:

    The bottom line:

    "Failure to act now is the most risky and most expensive thing we could do"

    EDIT - Here's the self description of the author of the reference below:

    "In graduate school, I studied yeast physiology and stumbled onto the basic control mechanisms for mushroom formation. But I was forced into seclusion by mental pain, so I moved onto the previously vacated family farm and did mushroom research."

    Would you trust his view over that of hundreds of climatologists?

  8. Mankind has such a ego to believe they are the greatest power on this planet . The planet has gone through the process of heating and cooling sense the time of creation . The knowledge that WE have to be able to change and cope as our environment changes has been lost from our consciences . As animals migrate we will again have to to areas where we can grow crops and live . I hope this helps ?

  9. It's NOT easy! That is the crux of the issue. Even the scientists say that we must spend up to 50 TRILLION dollars to reduce carbon emissions by "only" 50% --- which is the bare minimum for improving CO2 concentrations (in their opinion).

    This would bankrupt the world's economies and millions of people would die from the resulting global depression!

    and by the way--- NOT ONE PERSON or animal has yet died from GW anywhere in the world!

  10. Your ignorance of the 'global warming' is evident in your poorly disguised 'rant'.  Here is the condensed version.

    1.  you cannot change something that does not exist, global warming is a figment of the ultra-liberal left activitists imagination.

    2.  your statement of your reasoning that the world is being killed and all the animals in it is unfortunately the result of you being indoctrinated by the public school system, and the ultra-left media.  Look, the world is not in danger of 'dying', at least not from climate change.  And, animal species die off whether we want them to or not.  Have you ever noticed that virtually all of the species extinctions that have been witnessed over the last several hundred years have been attributed to 'human influences', like over hunting, or pollution or habitat lost?  And yet, if you look at any natural history museum there are thousands of species that are extinct, which were around when humans were not supposed to be.  Why did they die off?  Humans did not do it.  They died because they could not adapt to the new environment they found themselves.  Yes animals may die, they are dieing as we speak, so are people, but most will not, they will use pre-existing genetic traits to adapt to the new conditions, just as humans will to climate change-that is the nature of climate on the earth, it changes, man has nothing to do with it. But, do not take my word for it, if you are smart enough to ask the question, you are smart enough to search it out and think it through.  Good luck.

  11. its kinda hard to stop... i mean how r u going to get everone in the whole world to stop?

    good luck doing that!

  12. You can't stop global warming. It's completely natural. Oh the vanity of man!!!

  13. ha, we have all ready stopped it. because its fake and not happening. the world alwasy warms and cools, it natural and not a threat. what animals do you klnow of that have been impact by "global warming"?

  14. You believe it's easy to regulate the sun?  Go right ahead then!

  15. Calm down, global warming isn't happening. it's just a story to get people scared. take a look at this:

    Newsweek Burns Truth in Global Warming Story

    Excerpt: The Newsbusters website has run a fascinating story that NASA has now quietly acknowledged that it was wrong in saying that nine of the hottest 10 years in history have occurred since 1995, and that now it appears to be only three of the top 10 since 1998.

    Hence, a lot of hot air is going out of the global warming argument. Newsweek, of course, cannot be expected to report any of this. It would cast doubt on the theory it is falsely promoting as fact. Similarly, NBC and its affiliated networks turned over close to 75 hours of air time to Al Gore's Live Earth concerts, constituting a massive endorsement of one side in this debate. Where's the Fairness Doctrine when we need it?

  16. No one said it was going to be easy. I view it as the greatest challenge we,as a human race, are facing. Though does that mean it is impossible to accomplish? No. If we can have the will power to get astronauts to the moon we can certainly have the will power to solve this crisis.

  17. You can't stop mother nature. The globe has been warming for hundreds of years. It will warm up to some temperature, then cool down, just like it has for millions of years. The real question is will man survive the peak this time. After all, man (as we know him) wasn't around the last cycle peak.

    Nature has no conscience. She kills with abandon. Many Thousands of species have come and gone long before man had any impact.
