It is climate change, and, if I understand correctly, some places will get hotter, and some colder; weather patterns will change. It isn't necessarily a matter of the entire world getting warmer or cooler.

Yes It's climate change. Global Warming will make some places hotter and others colder. I know that. I just haven't seen any prime examples of places getting warmer. Mainly they've been colder. Indiana has received much more precipitation in the last year than years past.

It does not matter what we believe, this is a science topic- NOT a political one.

And the overwhelming evidence- and consensus- points to a warmer, drier earth.

The proper term is "Climate Change" and I can assure you it's real

that is weather, not climate. One year of more precip does not necessarily mean anything. The entire premise of the poll is ridiculous.

You know someone would deny its existence, simply because a liberal was asking!

It should mean something when you are several feet( 6-9 feet) above the normal range.
