Global Warming

[Jerlene]

Is it actually happening?

I definitely think that it is. Animals, trees, etc. are dying because of it. Ice is melting. etc.

Global warming is part of the natural, cyclical climate of Earth, and has happened, followed by ice ages, several times in the past. The last "mini" ice age was in the early 19th century and was precipitated by the eruptions of 2 large and relatively unknown volcanoes in the Pacific region. The major difference this time is the rapidity with which the warming has occured, and that can be linked to the greater formation of "greenhouse gasses" created by humans since the advent of the industrial age. However warming and cooling cycles are a normal part of the Earth's climate, so invest in parkas and mukluks now, for the next ice age, which may be nearer than folks want to believe, although temperatures have taken a slight dip over the past decade, seemingly.

Well I guess that's why the entire nation, and maybe even world, is going (or trying to go) green.

We may not notice it much but climate change is happening right now. The world will experience the warming, not even us but also the animals, plants, etc.

its already 2010... and we do nothing about it.. ice in north pole is melting.. world getting hotter and hotter... and yes, global warming is happen now..

you can start overcome it by planting many trees and not using a plastic bag

I feel that nature is disturbing us because its repaying us of what we had been doing to it all these days..

Humanity (greed) hurt the earth! Earth does not meet the artificial human scars!

There was a piece in today's news that the one item the "global warming " crowd have ignored that has the greatest influence on the Earth's temperature, happens to be the sun, and the distinct LACK of sunspot activity is more linked to the winter and spring we're just coming out of, being so much colder than usual. Since sunspots are flares of solar material shooting off the sun towards us, the lack of them carrying that heat toward Earth does make sense in accounting for the cooler temperatures. As for the "global warming" crowd, just because they've tried to silence all the dissenting voices, including reputable scientists, to further their socialist agenda, that doesn't make them right! The truth is out there, and you may have to search to find it, but it's NOT what the mainstream media are feeding you, that I can promise you.
