No, what you mean to say is people who believe in science and the scientific research that shows global warming doesn't match the answers you are looking for.

When you asked your question, you already knew what the acceptable answer would be regardless of what factual data says.

Which is fine, you have been posting on here a long time and have always denied global warming and will continue to deny global warming till you die. Besides, who cares about future generations when you're dead.

I posted a quote from somebody who believes in science and scientific research who is the chief scientific advisor to the EU Department of Energy and Climate Change who answered one of my questions that you couldn't and he was course vilified as a oil loving shill and how he wasn't even close. I guess you folks know more than he does?? Or you think you do. Anyone who disagrees with you folks gets the same treatment. I doubt you even read the article I posted. You never do read links.

Neither is the 750 gigatons that nature provides. You want to blame the 29 (hey we'll use your number). lol

Funny thing with this reasoning is that the West Coast has been downright toasty. The cold winter in the Est really has to do more with the frozen Jet Stream than low global temps.

This has to be one of the warmest winters I have seen on the Oregon Coast which is known for nasty, cold winter weather.

I'll see your wikipukia link and rasie you one...........lol

"David John Cameron MacKay, FRS FInstP FICE, is the Regius Professor of Engineering in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge and chief scientific adviser to the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change"

Doesn't exactly sound like a buddy to big oil to me. You just don't like his findings. Tough.

David J. C. MacKay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I don't think you'll like him either since he is a big supporter of renewable energy.....

So keep screaming that is what you do.
A gigaton and metric tonnes are two different things....... So you are wrong.

This should help KUChief.

gig·a·ton (gĭg′ə-tŭn′, jĭg′-)
n.
A unit of explosive force equal to that of one billion (109) tons of TNT.


tonne (tŭn)
n.
A metric ton.


As we can see, that is two completely different things.
