"Global Warming". I can't even say it without laugh out loud.

What people aren't understanding is the green agenda is about creating laws and regulations beyond the level of individual nation states so that they eventually have a global dictatorship. The European Union is a stepping stone toward this end. It's done gradually over a long period of time so that people don't notice and/or take it as normal, natural, & inevitable. If the hypocrisy of one cause is exposed, they have 10 more tools in their arsenal to achieve the same end.
The WTO already beat them to it over 20 years ago. Everything is heading in that direction, not just the green agenda.

I shudder to think about the economic (and environmental) damage the environmentalists' opposition to nuclear power has done. And I don't buy into human-caused global warming, but apparently it's very good with carbon. You could run your electric car on nuclear power!

Then he would agree with the fact that pollution is causing glaciers and ice sheets to melt much faster than before. Especially after seeing the film footage of every aspect of the process.

The problem with nuclear power is that so many of the plants had been planned for seismically unstable areas, like the fault lines in the Bay Area. Does the Fukushima disaster mean nothing to you?

Carbon emissions...Not altogether a good thing when considering the health issues surrounding air pollution in our largest cities. Conspiracy tales of Al Gore and others playing the role of Dr Evil with regard to AGW is certainly entertaining stuff but on it's face seems ludicrous, and tiring to say the least. It can't hurt to have the worlds leading manufacturing nations coming together to talk about the issues surrounding industrial pollution, as a car crazy nation we are seeing the problem with these objects of worship that began as nothing more than a way to get around. Coal isn't anymore of a thing worthy of our deifying than the car, so lets agree on one thing, pollution IS bad...

No doubt pollution is bad. However, the problem here is not about pollution, it is about an American administration selling citizenry on the Global warming scam (and believe me they could give a crap about pollution) in order to stop certain business from operating in the USA. But they send the work to another country letting the believers, the followers and the green fanatics think that they actually cared and stopped the pollution, which has not stopped at all, only transferred to make somewhere else money besides USA. This is called hypocrisy.

You know, it would have made such a big difference if you'd posted this in your OP. A world of difference! The quality of discussion you generate relates directly to the quality of the OP.

Global warming is a fake, a real simple scam. I mean, it was faked by some "scientists" who used biased data. And, there are natural cyclical changes in Earth's climate, (10000 years ago glaciers were unloading in Central Park, and then receded far north, long before the first factory was built), and people who think that human activities actually are so important for the planet are arrogant jerks Wait for the sunset, and you see how it affects the temperature. We have a star in just 8.5 seconds of light speed away, and this is what makes Earth alive and this is what can make Earth burn or freeze. Not we, little ants in Earth's bush.

David Icke, a former Green Party member in Britain, talks about the real agenda of Global Warming:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIRyZevAYPU
Explain why a wealthy successful person enjoying his wealth and success means he cannot have an opinion on environmental concerns.

Should he keep all his money in a bank and live in a shack if he has these concerns.

Should anyone who feels strongly about starvation, starve themselves?

Should people who feel strongly about child abuse shut up, unless they themselves have been abused?

The logic here eludes me.

Even the History Channel did a documentary about the climate during the "Medieval Warm Period". The climate was warmer then than it is now, and it clearly wasn't caused by industrial pollution. Of course, the last half hour of the 90 minute documentary, they ranted about global warming, even though the first hour of it was all about how the climate warmed up during the Middle Ages and then subsequently cooled off for a few hundred years until things began warming up again in the 19th century.
Is it not possible that we are in a cyclical warming period AND that humans are adding to the problem too? Or are those two things mutually exclusive in your mind?

Is it a potential problem that should be investigated or should we just ignore the possibility there might be a problem?
