Well if Doctor Zero said it on a blog, I guess the case is closed.

I can't believe you all actually put credence in these fanatics. They're not more educated about these subjects than the people posting on this forum.

Next.

You really don't know what you're talking about. You should stop.

Yes, plants absorb carbon dioxide. They clean the air because they absord so much of it. It doesn't mean we need excess of it.

Some good - too much bad. Didn't they teach you this in school?

And not one issue/point are you capable of disputing.

That's funny. Not one of the mental midgets on this forum has been able to dispute any of the facts laid out. they can't even be bothered to go check for themselves if what the fanatics tell them is actually true. Like the polar ice cap - go check it out....or are you afraid you will find the truth?

How much Co2 is bad? Plants love it, shell fish really like it. Give me a number - and not the ridiculous 350 ppb from the IPCC.

Here, don't believe me, look for yourself. In fact, compare to 2005 and 2007.

Polar Sea Ice Cap and Snow - Cryosphere Today

Your second link?

Seems they made a slight error in the dates.

Damn, this is just too easy buddy;

BBC News - Himalayan glaciers melting deadline 'a mistake'



Do yourself a favor - just go look up the info yourself instead of relying on false and inaccurate date that you've been "told" about.
I think you're in denial that snow and ice on mountaintops which has been around for thousands of years, isn't really melting? It's just imaginary.

Wow!! It never happened before? This is the first time that glaciers and snow-topped mountain tops have melted?

Eh......which mountains are melting?

Names?

What about the melting ice cap?

Did you check it out.....or afraid you might be wrong/been lied to?

Look at this; See how it recedes and grows, over and over again. Nothing to be afraid of;

http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosph....1978-2006.mov

http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosph....2001-2006.mov

Check these out and then tell me what you're so afraid of.

According the Kaser’s research, there has been a marked reduction in precipitation and cloud cover in East Africa during the 20th C. that has led to an increase in solar radiation and a decrease in snow.

The lead author appears to favor global warming as the cause of melting, but the report does not state outright or plainly that man-made global warming is too blame.
Who is it that doesn't know what she's talking about? You should quit while you're behind. Maybe actually read the article next time to see if it corroborates the point you are attempting to make.

Really, you should just stop.

And those glaciers covering Minnesota have completely melted away also. Lets please hurry up and cool the earth and bring back that glacier, then we can send Al Franken home...
