Yep overpopulation AND an imminent ICE AGE were going to wipe out the human population.

Heard it all through my school years in the sixties and seventies.

Climate science may have greatly improved since then but the political bullcrap surrounding the earth's climate has not.


Eh...wot?

No it's not an "overwhelming consensus" In fact, it's very far from it. I just posted information that explains it. Most non government grant paid scientist do not agree. NOAA has fudged the numers and they have been caught more than once.... So what don't you understand? Really?

I was doing some work down in Venezuela in the early 70's and forest land was being cleared at a steady pace for ranches to raise cattle and fields to raise food crops. The climate scientists claimed at the time that destroying the rain forests would cause the global weather patterns to change. There would be more drought and the hurricanes would increase in numbers and intensity.

Since then several billion acres have been cleared. They could have been closer to the fact than anything I have ever heard.


Sit on your horse on top of a ridge, look out across the country and tell me there is no God.

I see validity in the scientific proof that humans are having an influence on the rapidity of global warming. With that said, I'd like to do my part in being environmentally conscious about how I live my life and the ecological footprint I personally leave, my family leaves, and my actions represent to others. If it turns out that I'm dead wrong about humans having an influence on climate change, then what's the worst that's happened? I've lived my life in frugal, environmentally friendly ways. And what happens if it turns out that I'm right and humans are in fact impacting the speed at which climate change is occurring? Great, I've lived a frugal, environmentally friendly life. I just don't understand what the negative is for believing that there are things I can do in my life to be environmentally responsible. Don't all of you who trap do what you can to help or improve animal populations, preserve and conserve habitat, or encourage others to understand and enjoy the natural world? This has nothing to do with watching the news, weather forecasts, politics, etc. etc. It has to do with how I live my life and how I want to treat our plant.



I see it the same way that you do atrapper. While I don't believe that man has the ability to stop this natural phenomenon it is still prudent to take practical steps to limit its severity.

The surface temperature of the sun is 10,000 degrees and it warms the earth 40* here from morning to afternoon. What is it again that causes global warming????

Buwahahaha!!! Buwahahaha!!!

Man made Climate Change is 100% FALSE.
Nothing but socialist/communist/fascist tyranny. Man can affect micro climates. Not global climate.

Global climate has always changed, and always will. Sometimes much more rapidly than now. We don't even know what "normal" global climate would be. Doh!

Whether climate change is happening or not, I don't know why we keep having this argument - nobody's going to do anything about it. Especially those that scream the loudest.
