"The world pumped about 564 million more tons of carbon into the air in 2010 than it did in 2009. That's an increase of 6 percent. That amount of extra pollution eclipses the individual emissions of all but three countries - China, the United States and India, the world's top producers of greenhouse gases."
Good thing co2 makes up a miniscule % of greenhouse gas. Ooops the article failed to point that out.
I hope these loons are right because it's already snowed here and I don't like winter much anymore. A year long growing season would do us all nice and allow for more baseball.
No, I'm one of the people that is not hiding my head in the sand...I don't know how you guys can stand all that grit in your eyes and ears...I guess that is why you don't see of hear all that well, huh?
Good grief, you know better than that. The temperature is still increasing, the sea levels are rising, glaciers are melting...What makes you say there is no warming trend? Is that the GOP party line, or are you a shill for big oil?
So...... we should still be living in the cold and misery of the little ice-age?
Where is the normal climate for you people, was it the year al Gore was born, and anything that deviates from that is catastrophic and apocalyptic?
Wait.... before you post it, don't bother to link to some scammer's climate chart that shows temp increases measured from within the little ice-age, and claim it shows definitive proof of man-made global warming.

lands SINK. yet you call it sealevel rise
errosion happens, yet you call it sealevel rise
sorry but the sea has not been rising
Actually much of the land masses on earth are still rising because of post-glacial rebound. This make sea level rise even more dramatic.
Post-glacial rebound is the response of the solid Earth to the retreat of glaciers and the resulting loss of the hefty weight. As glaciers retreated at the end of the last Ice Age, the land under the ice began to rise and continues to do so. Hang On! Earth's Surface Moving North | LiveScience

We are already into a La Nina, and showing that it is likely to progress into a very strong one this year. Its only premature so far, but Oct satellite data showed a very strong dip in the global lower atmosphere.
You would think with such increases, we would see a warming, but this is not the case. Though I am sure, some will chime in that this is supposed to happen, forgetting that the research used to establish the position of warming indicates just the opposite will happen.
But.....there is no warming. All temperature data says warming stopped a decade or so ago....yet Co2 is at very, very, high, dangerous levels.
I wonder how they'll explain that to the muddled masses of AGW cult believers.
Just hasn't reached its "tipping point" yet... give it time, it will tip eventually... oh wait... I mean, it will shoot up rapidly and hit that tipping point and the world will turn into a Hollywood movie! Yeah, that's it!
