That's because the posters who deny GW have nothing to back up their opinion except to demonstrate their complete lack of scientific knowledge. They don't seem to know the difference between weather and climate. They don't seem to understand that even the slightest temp change could have a huge impact. They don't seem to understand how the research is done.
why was there such a big deal over e-mails being hacked at Coppenhaggen?...why wouldn't that info be made public if it was true and they really were out to change things...the agenda is to make money..why do you think the 3rd world countries wanted nothing to do with the carbon tax?...lol
I didn't know City Data was such a hangout for scientists. You're right...I don't know all the research. Neither do 99.8% of anyone else. The funny part is that whatever the pro-global warmers throw out, you can search around and find a rebuttal. So who is right???
There's no such thing as "pro-global warmers". You can't be advocating facts.
Wasn't it also discovered that CFL bulbs do not save the kind of money as advertised? The problem is that you have a hard time finding a conventional bulb.

It is suppose to get down to 0 to 5 degrees here in Dallas Fort Worth this week. Can we all go drive our cars around so it can warm up. This global warming thing just is not working well.
for all in this area cover your pipes leave a faucet dripping.
It's simple Chemistry. The green house gases produced by humans stay in the athmosphere of the planet. They reflect the heat the planet is naturally producing. That means the heat can't escape and the planet warms up. Without the green house gases this wouldn't be happening. Our planet produces a lot of heat, obviously.
Since you brought up chemistry.
Do you care to elucidate us on how much of the CO2 in the atmosphere is from man's activity?
Then do you care to explain that percentage in relation to the warming that has occurred in the past 150 years?
And do you care to put that in context with the amount of Water Vapor vs. CO2 in the Atmosphere?
because until you do that, (no scientist has yet), you cannot say that man's efforts to increase CO2 is the cause of the warming that has occurred in the last 150 years....
Then you also need to provide the explanation as to why the current warming is materially different from previous warming’s during this interglacial. Because at least 2 times it has been warmer.
Most recently in the medieval period that lasted 300 years and also from about 9000 years ago to about 4000 years ago.
i already answered it..look at my links...the mid-evil times had a warmer period than what we have seen in modern times...so question answered..if u still don't believe then that's on you...or maybe show some facts for us
Sorry RazorRob, you mis-read what I said. My point was that one cannot point to evidence that it is warm now and jump to the conclusion that this warm period is caused by human activity.
precisely because it has been warmer (Medieval Warming Period and Helocene Maximum) in the historic record.

It's called global warming, not Dallas warming. Global warming does not mean you won't have colder temperatures on our planet anymore.

Both events were warmer than the present.
No, I don't care. Google is your friend. You can do that yourself.

You see, the global warmers have been trained and trained well. They feel extreme guilt if they drive a car and if you use a conventional light bulb...oh no...that is the devil. We are going to stop "global warming" on Prius at time.

I don't know how all of the research is done either, but I do have a basic understanding of science and math, which is more than I can say for some people. I don't see much scientific rebuttal from the deniers. All I see is thread after thread started about some unusual weather.
