So what did he base his facts on if he does not believe ice core samples, sattelite photos from the Jurrasic period??

What about your supposed facts that the earths atmosphere was 700 ppM 10,000 years ago, then it was 20,000 years ago, now you are throwing out the Jurrasic period? Godd you're getting closer. You keep on bringing up the fact that there was a time when the co2 content was much greater than now, does that have any revelance? Do you realize that man did not exist then or did that escape you. The temperature at one time was the same over the entire earth including the poles and the average temperature was 10 Deg C higher, so whats your point. Any proof that we is part of a natural cycle?

Plants take in CO2 and generate O2, do you realize how long it takes for a plant to remove a pound of CO2? I know you hav'nt noticed but there is are a few less trees around than 100 years ago or 20,000 years ago.

Truth is that people like you will never change their minds no matter what the proof. If the carbon levels go to 700ppM next week you will still be in the same place.
Can you tell me that the Iceland volcano eruption is not caused by global warming? Today I heard a man on TV say that one of those warmers did say yesterday that global warming caused that eruption. I need someone to explain that one to me and maybe you know enough about warming to handle this one. I will try very hard to understand.

According to Nye, it’s easier to sell the theory of anthropogenic global warming to younger generations since “older people” have a harder time with the concept. He agreed with the show’s host Rachel Maddow, who likened the snowfall in Washington, D.C. to a full-court one-handed buzzer-beating basketball shot earlier in her program.

“Well, my thinking is, I thought about this a lot as an educator, spent a lot of time with a lot of people,” Nye said. “It's mostly generational, it seems to be. This is anecdotal for me. Older people just have a much harder time grasping the idea that you have many billions of people on the planet with a very, very thin atmosphere – you're able to affect its climate. Younger people are able to sort of embrace it, understand the evidence and move forward.

I often think that older people can't grasp the concept of manmade global warming because they weren't taught by people who have been indoctrinated themselves by those who want to push green technology off on us. I am saying that the teachers hadn't been indoctrinated with left leaning thought before they taught we old people.

Maybe beacause older people have been told different versions of this by the so called experts. I remember as a kid in the 70's being told we were heading towards a new ice age. I also recall killer bees were going to kill us all too, LOL.

The volcano was not sauced by global warming but it may posably cause global cooling.

Global Warming is a red herring. It was concocted by big business in order to gain control on the marketplace by regulating the ability to create pollution. The earth regulates itself. As temperature rises there is increased ocean evaporation, resulting in more rain. The rain in turn spawns more plant and algae growth, which in turn causes more oxygen production. Over the millennia there have been natural occurrences that have injected more green house gasses into the air than manmade causes could do in a million years, and yet life goes on. There are two very real problems mankind faces in the future and global warming is not one of them. One is overpopulation, and the other is the world banking interests who are taking control of government’s world wide. Those are the issues that we need to be focusing on, not red herrings created for profit by big business that divert attention.
