Global Warming is not caused by humans.

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THERE IS GLOBAL WARMING OR NOT.

There could be a fast approaching ice age for all I care. It doesn't matter.

We should be lowering emissions and investing in more alternatives to oil.

Your point is completely invalid and doesn't matter. Aliens could be causing the globe to get warmer for all I care. If we don't invest in alternatives now, we could be completely fucked.

All the things we should be doing to combat "global warming" we should be doing anyway, even if the globe all of the sudden starts to cool rapidly, We should still be investing in alternatives.

Let me ask you this. Is it really worth the risk?

If we don't act now and we do start running out of oil, we will be fucked beyond reason.

If global warming is being caused or even just helped a little by CO2 emissions and we dont act, we will be fucked beyond reason.

If oil never runs out and global warming is a complete hoax and we do decide to act, then WE ARE STILL BETTER OFF.

It's a win-win-win-win-win situation if we do lower emissions and invest in alternatives.

It's a lose-lose-lose-lose-lose situation if we don't lower emissions and invest in alternatives.

End of story.

I agree with what you said. Global warming is a hoax but even though we are being tricked we are better off because we need to stop being dependant on oil. I think there may be a few reasons that we are tricked into believing global warming, some good and some bad.

1) To make us lower our dependancy on oil which is good

2) To try and keep china from developing which is good for america but is generally bad.

3) To hand over much more power to the United Nations which is someting I hope never happens.

But global warming is definitly not caused by human co2 emissions.

This is tidy article that seems to be a more complete look at all the bits of info all of us have been providing.

what!? making a bold and almost ignorant statement like that calls for you to present your evidence to the contrary, not the other way around. we don't need to prove again what every scientist have found out about global warming.

CO2 does have an effect on the heat retention of the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is real. Still, human intervention has only a minor effect on global temperatures. For all our efforts, nature is still in charge of this planet.

Even if global warming is the problem the alarmists say it is, drastically reducing our CO2 emissions will have such a negative effect on everyone, that even if global warming was reversed it wouldn't be worth it.

Still, even if global warming isn't a big deal, we really need to start using more nuclear energy and less coal. Coal pollutes. A lot. Nuclear power on the other hand, releases no emissions.

I say bring on the climate change! Destroy all those helpless creatures who depend on the ice caps to provide the essential nutrients for living. As for the global scare, us humans can cope. The planet will be warmer, the ocean deeper, the wind will blow harder, the waves will climb higher, and in forty years time, we will be similar to our sister planet, Venus. What can you do stop it? Express your distaste for it all on a cannabis forum.

The evidence you use to support you're statement is astounding.

And who says both can't be the cause?

All (well, most) of that carbon that we're putting in the atmosphere was put in the ground during the carboniferous period 300 million years ago. Where did all that carbon come from? Why, the atmosphere, actually. And before that, volcanoes.

Our planet is actually still in an ice age. Geologically, it's kind of uncommon for there to be polar ice caps all year. The oldest ice at the ice caps is only about 100,000 years old, owing to the fact that before then, they melted during the summer. But honestly, what we're doing to the atmosphere is very insignificant compared to what's happened to it throughout the geological record.

If you want a debate, you are violating a cardinal rule of debates by making assertions without citing sources. Here is my source which refutes your argument:
