Ummmm wasn't benagain's post sarcasm?

Its hard to tell online

Yea, umm. I was just joking around. Even apologized for overreacting when people started taking me serriously. Took myself serriously (when it didn't deserve it). Just so everyone is clear here....actually you know what..go read the rest of the thread yourself. I don't feel like re-typing it all. Don't just read one post and hit quick reply :thumbsup:

the poles are already feeling it...haven't you read about the dead polar bears

Polar bears drown as ice shelf melts

SCIENTISTS have for the first time found evidence that polar bears are drowning because climate change is melting the Arctic ice shelf. The researchers were startled to find bears having to swim up to 60 miles across open sea to find food. They are being forced into the long voyages because the ice floes from which they feed are melting, becoming smaller and drifting farther apart.

The evidence on Google Video really seems to be coming in fast and furious now. This video shows the effects of climate change on Patagonia in South America. It contains amazing before and after pictures that are pretty hard to dispute...I mean look at the difference in the photos....it's scary..

Fengzi,

A simplistic word,
Global warming is very slow, So far we've only warmed the earth ~0.63 degrees Celsius.

This isn't an amount that we would notice. But, 1) the world dosn't warm evenly the poles will feel the biggest effect at first. 2) The importance of this warming isn't that it will be a lil hotter. It's that this small change is significant for all kinds of earth systems. Systems that get destabilized by the change.

By destabilizing these systems (systems like the gulf stream, Jet stream and others) Causes climate change. Climate Change is what we are being subject too and is what were worried about.

If you have any doubt, check out how fast records are getting broken around the globe.
All kinds of records: Hottest hots, coldest colds, wettest, driest, stormiest and so on.

Itâ??s quite concerning.

It is...and harris you know what I don't understand? I just don't get the divisiveness of this issue. Even when they had all this crazy weather from El Nino all the reporters were clamoring to report 'this is not global warming don't be afraid" Instead of using El Nino to explain what global warming as it advances will be like...it is going to change the global water conveyor and when it does we will see the same weather changes that come with El Nino only worse. Why didn't they use this weeks weather to help people to understand? It is crazy. I just don't get it.

Polar bears have begun to cannabalize each other.. because there hunting grounds are GONE...

I haven't really read through this thread, but this is what I know:

Global warming is a bunch of media BULLSHIT. It's fucking hype, nothing more. Earth goes through these cycles all the time, fluctuations in temperature like this are not uncommon.

We had warmer temperatures on the earth 200,000 years ago. This is nothing new.

umm actually your media is trying to convince you that it doesnâ??t exist.
If you want me to rebut your statements please answer some questions:
-Can you name a single earth cycle?
-how about the one most responsible for climate? And what should the planet be doing now��
-Could you please name one public person who doesnâ??t believe in G/W.

IT isn't an issue of debate Anywhere! Neither is climate change. Actually neither is being debated at all. The only thing that is occurring is science progressing as usual and large corporations protecting their investments. Itâ??s quite reminiscent of Big tobacco and asbestos.


Blue cat, the polar bears are now on the endangered species list
