The AGW fanatics used to call it global warming, but they changed to to climate change when mother earth started showing the world what a bunch of fools they are.

I think that its is a cycle that has been seen before and that the man made has been discredited by their own admissions. That part is a money/power play.

The usual fruits and nuts have contributed nary an enlightening or illuminating bit of information in three pages of pattern denial.

Factually challenged they'll remain, damn their lying eyes for trying to convince them otherwise.

If the case for global warming is stronger than ever, it is still extremely weak. The case of AGW has been overstated so dramatically that reality could not possibly catch up with the exaggerations.

I read a small part of a sight that was debunking alternatives to CO2. It said that there is an albedo push for cooler. I didn't read the sight all the way through but if they said the same thing about the rest of it well they were making a good argument for global cooling. Ice age hear we come

Let's ignore intelligent people, experts in their fields mind you, because we are paranoid about their motivations. Let's live in fear of others dispelling the truth and keep our minds closed. They just want to take our freedoms or hate that we have them, like the terrorists do. LOL!

Humanity is the worst thing that ever happened to this planet. It is the most destructive species and has divorced itself from nature in almost every way imaginable. No one here has any proof that humans don't impact the weather of the planet. Someone shot that denial down with the science of cloud seeding. You want another example? How about the unanticipated cloud seeding that occurs when the winds blow from the SW across Gary Indiana and take the pollutants from the steel mills over Lake Michigan to form clouds and precipitation over in adjoining Michigan? I guess that's just natural, huh? Oh, NO, mankind is but a puny dot on a big planet and nothing it does can affect something as big as the weather. No-ooh. The atmosphere, closed system that it is, would be analogous to the skin of an apple if the earth were that size. And yet, it's still too big for us to have any effect on. Yeah, let's keep our minds closed, whip out our (what is it? genetic and why is it so partisan?) paranoia about our fellow man and continue to do....NOTHING. Let's continue to think that if the planet is so big and we are so small, then we don't need to hold ourselves accountable. Now I get why the anti-global warming crowd continues to chirp: Ignorance is bliss.

Earth #1. Human beings, not so much.

No the moon is the worst thing that ever happened to this planet. something the size of mars hit the earth and then we got the moon.

So that justifies the continued ignorance of mankind to the effect they have on the Earth? Because something accidental happened that shook this planet to the core, we should ignore what puny mankind does on its surface? Just continue the infestation, the drilling, the mountaintop removal, the production of unnatural substances that nature can't handle? Thanks.

When's your rocket leaving? If you're going to disrepect the natives and not obey the rules, then move elsewhere.

Global "warming".... thee single dumbest thing mankind has ever invented. All you braindead, boneheaded idiots who believe it are just lining Gore's already-fat pockets, and inflating that big, monstrous, ego-driven head of is.
