How many GLP'ers think Global warming/cooling is Human caused

Its the galactic plane, da plane.

I don't think that countries in the northern hemisphere believes that there is such a thing as global warming, only in Al Gore's imagination.
.

It is a function of the galaxy and where we are in it.

The other planets warming trends as of late is evidence of this.

:chg:

i think it is a natural function of the earth itself , of which i think the internal forces are equal to the external forces, including the rest of the galaxy
and i would suspect that it goes through natural cycles and has for millions of years. to say that man has anything to do with it is almost arrogant.
if we become to much of a problem for this planet, it will rid itself of us.

reminds of a story! My father could not go into the monkey house at our local zoo without this same animal going crazy and trying to spit on him! The caretakers said the monkey never acted like that at anytime only when he caught a look at my dad!

This is important what ever the outcome is the poll is not to further anyone's agenda or become someone's bragging rights.
It is nice to see how GLP is thinking

vote?
:oxe:

It is, Politicians can't keep all that hot air from leaving their mouths..

I blame the longwalkers

I guess midnight GLP time would be a good to time give everyone a chance to vote till

Dually appreciated

:dek:

People that do not say NO have no damn brain

it is a scam!!!!........

There might be some who say that it is both having to do with the orbit of the Earth and human activity. You should have included that option, in my opinion.

Most people think that us human beings dont have an effect on anything on this planet. They are idiots.

So, better than 75% agree with Rush Limbaugh. Imagine that.

well, I bet Rush also believes the sun will come up tomorrow

so f'ng what Rush believes

Usually he gets trashed whenever his name comes up, yet most people are agreeing with one of his basic beliefs that global warming is a natural cycle. That's so f'ng what.

I think we've added to it, but in a minuscule amount, which since we have instruments sensitive enough to record it, it is being exploited.

.... sorry, I've got as headache

Yup those disappeared rainforest and wetlands are destroying themselves. Or maybe ghost did it ....hhhhhmmmmmm i wonder who did that killing and destroying ? Maybe martians ? How about annuaki ? How about leprechans ? Someone did it ...i cant for the life of me imagine who did it though. And those dead zones in the oceans. I wonder who did that to ...hhhmmmm such a big mystery it is.

But it certainly cant be us. We are pure and totally harmless to any form of life on this planet. ARent we such angels ? awwwwww sweeet.

I still say the leprechans did it.

That excuse never works with the wife, but I'll let it go this time.

I think that whatever caused the end of the last Ice Age is what's causing this global warming stuff now.

That's assuming that the global actually IS warming.

Climate change caused by man NO, assisted in speeding it up YES!

Every time Freestore adds a new friend to his list another ice sheet breaks off in the Antarctic.

The question STILL remains. Does the human race speed up the natural process of Earth changes. Bottom line.

The fact that ice ages happened in the unmechanized past changes absolutely nothing. The question still remains. We are a force upon the Earth. Just as important as the oceans or the forest.

Top Japanese Scientists: Warming Is Not Caused By Human Activity

A major scientific report by leading Japanese academics concludes that global warming is not man-made and that the overall warming trend from the mid-part of the 20th Century onwards has now stopped.

Unsurprisingly the report, which was released last month, has been completely ignored by the Western corporate media.

The report was undertaken by Japan Society of Energy and Resources (JSER), the academic society representing scientists from the energy and resource fields.

The JSER acts as a government advisory panel, much like the International Panel on Climate Change did for the UN.

The JSER’s findings provide a stark contrast to the IPCC’s, however, with only one out of five top researchers agreeing with the claim that recent warming has been accelerated by man-made carbon emissions.

The government commissioned report criticizes computer climate modeling and also says that the US ground temperature data set, used to back up the man-made warming claims, is too myopic.


In the last month, no major Western media outlet has covered the report, which prompted British based sci-tech website The Register to commission a translation of the document.

Section one highlights the fact that Global Warming has ceased, noting that since 2001, the increase in global temperatures has halted, despite a continuing increase in CO2 emissions.

The report then states that the recent warming the planet has experienced is primarily a recovery from the so called "Little Ice Age" that occurred from around 1400 through to 1800, and is part of a natural cycle.

The researchers also conclude that global warming and the halting of the temperature rise are related to solar activity, a notion previously dismissed by the IPCC.

"The hypothesis that the majority of global warming can be ascribed to the Greenhouse Effect is mistaken." the report’s introduction states.

Kanya Kusano, Program Director and Group Leader for the Earth Simulator at the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science & Technology (JAMSTEC) reiterates this point:

"[The IPCC's] conclusion that from now on atmospheric temperatures are likely to show a continuous, monotonic increase, should be perceived as an unprovable hypothesis,"

Shunichi Akasofu, head of the International Arctic Research Center in Alaska, cites historical data to challenge the claim that very recent temperatures represent an anomaly:

"We should be cautious, IPCC’s theory that atmospheric temperature has risen since 2000 in correspondence with CO2 is nothing but a hypothesis. "

"Before anyone noticed, this hypothesis has been substituted for truth… The opinion that great disaster will really happen must be broken." Akasofu concludes.

The key passages of the translated report can be found here.

The conclusions within the report dovetail with those of hundreds of Western scientists, who have been derided and even compared with holocaust deniers for challenging the so called "consensus" on global warming.

The total lack of exposure that this major report has received is another example of how skewed coverage of climate change is toward one set of hypotheses.

This serves the agenda to deliberately whip up mass hysteria on behalf of governments who are all too eager to introduce draconian taxation and control measures that won’t do anything to combat any form of warming, whether you believe it to be natural or man-made.

This is probably antisemitic.

The whole global warming crock of bs is a distraction from the real environmental damage being done through toxic chemicals, deforestation, overfishing, etc., etc. If we pay our carbon tax it's OK to continue to rape Gaia.
