Global Warming? NOT

Remind me not to b!tch this summer when it's stinking hot!! Heat and hot flashes don't mix!!

Global Warming / Climate change does not mean that it gets warmer everywhere. It means that when polar caps melt an upsurge is created in water streams which in turn causes extreme storm and other unusual weather events. Naturally in the winter time, those storms present themselves in the form of snow.
Why is this so difficult to understand?
Here are some facts from National Geographic:

"The Arctic is feeling the effects the most. Average temperatures in Alaska, western Canada, and eastern Russia have risen at twice the global average, according to the multinational Arctic Climate Impact Assessment report compiled between 2000 and 2004."

"Glaciers and mountain snows are rapidly melting—for example, Montana's Glacier National Park now has only 27 glaciers, versus 150 in 1910. In the Northern Hemisphere, thaws also come a week earlier in spring and freezes begin a week later."

"The ocean's circulation system, known as the ocean conveyor belt, could be permanently altered, causing a mini-ice age in Western Europe and other rapid changes."

But, of course there is always a notion that NG writer are a bunch of Obama loving, Koolaid drinking liberal. That argument always seems to disprove any scinetific fact.

2:53, maybe but im sure you will blame obama for it so its a wash. lol

Anonymous said...

Well 3:30, it's obvious you copied and pasted what you wrote because IF you were really intelligent enough to write it on your own you would know how to spell scientific...dummy.

Tell us, did you get this off the website of the clowns that have been lying about global warming for years just so they can keep their jobs and look important?

...and yes, you are nothing but a obama loving, kool-aid drinking liberal who isn't bright enough to think on your own. As for myself, I love you guys. Why? Because you give the rest of us something to laugh about throughout the day.

Alex said...

3:40 you don't think Obama is responsible for global warming? You must be a liberal or even worse a progressive (although I am not sure what progressive means) Well, actually, I don't even know what liberal means but it's bad because Glen Beck said it's bad.

3:30 it's amazing how people who believe I'm global waning always spout the same studies from the same "scientist" who's job was to prove that it exists no matter what or they would lose there grants but when other real scientists prove otherwise they are ignored or called quacks

Appearantly you have you head int he sand.
Haven't you been paying attention as the theory of AGW has been crashing down?
The entire thing is a hoax. Even the temperature records that say the earth is warming have been faked.
The head of the IPCC is corrupt and has been caught using college term papers as "peer reviewed" studies.
The first lieutenant of Al Gores scam Dr. Micheal Mann is now in an expanded investigation of scientific misconduct.
Wake up A;ex and get with the times. Citing 2004 studies only shows that you want to ignore the OVERWHELMING evidence that AGW is a HOAX!

Hey Alex...The sky is falling, the sky is falling!

You must be one of those morons who check the "average temperature" for each day and think god owes us that exact temperature.

4:09,

Man you are behind, Dr. Mann was cleared of professional misconduct. No formal allegations were ever made, but they launched an inquiry. No temperature records were ever faked, unless you have proved it, please give me your insight. And are you talking about having the date wrong on when the Himalayan icecaps will melt? Does having the date wrong really prove anything. If you have any overwhelming evidence though, please fill us in. I believe you repeat what you hear without really doing any research on your own. In other words, you do not understand what you talk about, and that makes you a very dangerous person.

My wife being a democrat, thought she was responsible for global warming when she was going through the change. She even had dreams that Al Gore was following her around Delmar.

THE State Agencys need to revert back to the 70,s.Get help from the state prisoners, they cleaned streets,bridges,helped supply trucks,under the supervision of stae workers/correctional personnel.The prisioners were also used to clean county roads and all the above also.They were given gloves and all esentials to do the job. But I assume that is below the adminastrators thinking in these times. Coddle the Rapists, theifs and let them watch TV>

anon 4:09 you are one to talk about not knowing what you are talking about you are quick to talk about the ice melting in certain areas but fail to mention that glaciers ind artic ice is actually growing in certain areas .and please let us not forget about the famous polar bear picture taken of a mother polar bear that was thin it is common for o polar bear not to eat for up to four months and if they are so endangered why are they ready to come of the protected list?

Alex,
your an idiot
period........!!!
Good thing you weren't around in the 30's
you'd a lost your mind for sure.
You all see how
Al gore owns the cap'n trade logistics software company?
I can only hope one day he's truely exposed and shamed.
Al's already had to admit that the north pole didn't dissapear as he projected.
Its all a big money scam,
ask any actual scientist thats not looking for funding.

Hey 3:30 & 4:41, have either you ever touched a woman? Either of you? Seriously? I ask because you remind me of two little Star War geeks spouting your wannabe scientific garbage. Bet you believe E.T. is real too don't you?
