WE don't need to do anything about climate. 30 years ago we were freezing, now we're burning. Its be back to freezing soon enough.
I agree with Alicia

Alicia,

You are absolutely correct. I think that everyone is going to kick themselves in the rear for believing in this global warming farse 10 years from now. This was the coldest summer on record. I've used my A/C significantly less this year than the past 3 years. There is no global warming.

Too bad global warming isn't true. This past summer was pretty dang cold, and it's been snowing on and off now. It is only early October! Ridiculous thing to believe that the planet is overheating, in my opinion.

I think it depends on where you are living. If you take on the southern hemisphere, the reaction would probably be different. In Malaysia for example, the temperature is rising and some of the beaches are labelled as 'dangerous' to public due to the rising sea level. Small islands like Singapore, Indonesia and the Philipines are threatened by this phenomena as well. If this issue is not being addressed, people who do not experience it may not understand the situation of the world we are living in. Maybe it is not global warming, but the climate really is changing.
The fact that in a particular town this particular summer was less hot then usual does not mean much---we have to look at world wide statistics to see if the phenomena is real.

well it probably is, but at least a real genius, former Nasa admin Michael Griffin stated something interesting about it..

Sorry this is not a comment on the post but just a question. I hope it will be read.

I have been a member of Vox for 5 months and I have only seen ONE daily question and only ONE welcome page with, I think, the same imge all the time, in all those 5 months. Now, this is on the French side of Vox and I don't know if the same goes on in other languages.

What I would like to know is this; Are there any plans to keep the site alive on the part of the administrators? it would be nice to talk about Vox and to get people to come on over without them saying that "It is allways the same!"

I would appreciate an awnser just so I can know what to expect. I like Vox a lot and do not plan on leaving but would like to have more friends join.

Thank you,

Athazagora

there is a climate change problem,maybe not for the same reason as that other peace prize winner but it does exist,and sense people are not going to give up their climate controled lives we need to find some new sources of energy,how about wave power,you know waves they keep crashing in and going back out, there has to be a way of making use of that without doing any harm.
Ten years from now? Ha, I was laughing at it 10 years ago.

All you have to do is read "Heaven and Earth:Global Warming-The Missing Science" by Ian Palmer. If you believed in Al Gore and others about global warming (or "Climate Change" as they now interestingly say) you'll be hitting yourself in the head to realize how duped you were.
Ian Pilmer has never published a scientific journal article disproving global warming. Not one. The scientific community agrees on global warming. Sorry, charlie.

I see y'all discussing global warming without a lick of proof of what you're saying.

Here are published articles which prove global warming.

Interpretations of High Projections for Global Mean Warming

"Little Ice Age" Summer Temperature Variations: their nature and relevance to recent global warming trends

Global-scale temperature patterns and climate forcing over the past six centuries

If any of you want to disprove the methods in these aricles, then maybe you can begin to back up your words.

(we both misspelled his name, btw, it's Ian Plimer)

So, by you, in order for anything to be accepted it has to be published in a scientific journal? What a joke. The scientific "community" agrees? Nice try. There are thousands of scientists who disagree. Here's another one. Prof. Bob Carter. Or if that isn't enough, go to GlobalWarmingHoax.com and read some of the Peer Reviewed Studies or Major Scientific Journal articles against the idea of man-made global warming. As I put my coat on to go out in these 40F temperatures in October, just one more thing. My name is not charlie.

Haa, Sorry Charlie was an ad about a tuna fish....popular culture reference. It was an expression for a while, not any more apparently.

And again, sorry, but people's opinions are not what science is based on. Would you want a surgeon that looked up on the internet how to operate on you? M.D.s, like other scientists, use peer-reviewed, published articles.

If you're confused, watch this video. It should clear this whole thing right up.

Thank you to Vox for beginning this debate. I love it. Here is my contribution.

On the Little Ice Age article. "Unusually warm conditions have prevailed since the 1920s, probably related to a relative absence of major explosive volcanic eruptions and higher levels of greenhouse gases". What makes it "unusually" warm? This guesswork is your facts?

Projection article. Interpretations, uncertainties, probabilities. "absence of policies to limit climate change" haha don't make me laugh so hard. Noticed that they left out the current cooling or the cooling in the 1970's. Oh gee, could it be that we were coming out of the little ice age? Oh no, why use any common sense. Let's interpret some more things to prove us right. lol

The 1970s were ten years out of 100 years of data. And the words unusually and probably show that scientists, unlike global warming deniers, don't believe in absolutes.

What makes it "unusually" warm? This guesswork is your facts?

What makes it unusually warm is the graphs, methods and results that you can't be bothered to read. I'm sorry if the science is too confusing for you to understand, but that does not make it wrong.

Really? Sorry Charlie was an ad? I hate tuna, not enough Dolphin in it anymore. I wouldn't want a doctor to say "this is probably the way to do it or I interpreted the book to mean this". You, dear are way too young and naive. The sky is not falling little chicken.
I've been using nothing but historical data. 100 years is a small time out of millions.But your stuff conveniently narrows in and doesn't look at the whole picture. Look at history. Remember that we were not here or there was no industrialization. We are living in just a blink of the Earth's eye.

It was funny, kind of. :)

If you don't think journal articles are valid, there's not much more I can say. I'm earning a master's degree in biology so I think I'm at least qualified to tell you how scientists (my professors, researchers, not necessarily myself) determine what real science is.

You might find this artcie interesting, it sort of proves both our points.

Soooo, it's all about a mislabelling of the phenomenon. Had it been called "Global Weather Weird Going-ons", more people would agree to it?

'Cause seriously just because it doesn't actually feel warmer out, doesn't mean everything's okay...

Athazagora: Je pense que c'est seulement du côté français car si tu regardes le site "officiel" de l'équipe Vox en français, la dernière mise à jour date de Juillet 2008. Par contre, je me rappelle pas d'avoir vu de communication officielle sur ce qui se passe.

[זה מעולה]
Sorry, Who is Charlie?
Mmm.. Did you know that a few years ago that the sun was spitting out sun spots that broke the charts? Couldn't global warming, if there is any, be related to things that are out of our control? Such as the sun?
We can't control everything. That's what I don't like about a lot of scientists, that they think that we are the cause of everything.
I think global warming is more about political power than actual concern for the planet. The government sends out funding for scientists who believe in global warming, that's why you don't hear of the ones who disagree, because they're funding is often cut off.
Actually, scientists do account for things outside of our control, and don't say we are the cause of everything. And you think only the government provides funding? I suppose the oil companies and other energy companies are nearly broke and don't fund any scientists at all...

Basically, it's happening for the same reason the financial crisis did. People thought: "I borrowed/lent one dollar, and there was absolutely no effect at all! So I can borrow/lend one billion dollars and there will be absolutely no effect at all!"

People who argue humans don't contribute to the changing climate have the same thinking...

That's why you're hearing the word "Climate Change" bandied about. Global warming scientists have had their work scrutinized long before they finished studying it, so they backpeddaled and called it climate change so people wouldn't get so confused. But of course the label didn't catch on and now it's just more confusing.

Would be better if the general public read the primary literature instead of just watching tv for their scientific informaiton.

My post on global warming has a link which proves that the solar hypothesis is wrong.

I'm not sure what you mean by "they think we are the cause of everything". If you're reading about studies (or god forbid, listening to the media for scientific information) that address pollution, of course you're going to hear that humans caused it.

[this is good]
in Vietnam have banks as :Ngan hang viet nam, Ngan hang a dong...you can send your money in that .
We were told in the 70's and early 80's that the "Ice Age" was coming, then it was "Global Warming". Now, it's "Climate Change"?

Through-out history we have had men of power (jerks) telling us that we need to do as they say or bad things will happen.

"We have angered the Gods!", "We must make human sacrifices to appease the Gods", "The Earth is flat!", "The Earth is the center of the Universe and all the planets and the sun revolve around the Earth.", "Salem Witch Trials", "New Ice Age", "Global Warming", "Climate Change"

It's all about POWER, MONEY, and CONTROL.

Look on Youtube.com and you will find many videos that explain how these fake scientist have to form a consensus and use ONLY CERTAIN data to substantiate their claims.

Carbon footprint? Dude, how does this not look like a scam to anyone with a free thinking mind?

They can't explain why all the other planets in our Universe has had increased temperature readings. They simply just ignore that.

I'm surprised that you have fallen for this nonsense, as well. I would have researched this issue fully before wasting time on an issue made up by Al Gore and certain powerful elites to control and manipulate people.

Let's discuss something that is actually real and not made-up, ey?
Ellie, No they don't. Sorry.
Ellie,

30,000 and more scientists are suing Al Gore for making up Global Warming!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfHW7KR33IQ&feature=related

Al Gore and their paid-off scientists will not allow an actual debate with real facts on this.

Finally people have to sue them to stop the lie and be heard!




Firejack007, thanks for the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOLkze-9GcI

They have to use only CERTAIN stats to prove their fake cause. They ignore the rest of the stats.

Funny to see how some people can fall for such a scam as global warming, climate change, ice age . . . . what is next?

People who believe in this fake global warming watch way too much TV!
Here is even a better explanation of the hoax from Lord Christopher Monckton. There is a pdf slideshow that goes along with his speech at this link. He is a climate expert. He's the guy that the Democrats in Congress would not allow to speak. They only would allow Al Gore. That shows you what confidence they have in the whole thing.I implore you Ellie to watch both of these together. Or like they said in 'X-files', maybe it's easier for you to believe the lie.
The global cooling scare was largely the result of the media. Far more scientific papers were published in the 70s predicting warming.

You're confused. Al Gore isn't a scientist. He's a politician (a Democrat) who ran for President of the United States. He didn't "make up" global warming.

There are several fields of science that study Earth processes - scientists from these fields discovered global warming and published the data in scientific journal articles.

Try spending less time watching television and more time reading the literature.

The graphs in the slideshow only begin in 1991. The data actually goes back to the late 1800s. I wouldn't trust slideshows which edit out almost 100 years of data.

I'd like to watch the video but it requires a signup. Do you have it somehwere else? I'll try googling it. I did get to see the slideshow. Did you see this video? As this scientist points out, science is not embodied in the people. It's embodied in the methods.

If one guy stands up and says something about global warming, no matter how popular or charming he is, that doesn't really tell us anything about a complicated scientific theory. We need to read the data as a whole and understand all the research that has been done, not just bits and pieces of it.

Do you have an opinion on current cancer treatments? Would you know 100 percent if one was better than another? Of course not, because you're not an oncologist. The general public needs to read the literature before they say they're 100 percent positive about this.

This video explains about peer-reviewed papers and why they matter.

ok guys, know you're american so i'll make allowances, but, it ain't really about the weather is it ? Er pollution, deforestation, mass consumption of natural resources. Try and engage the subject, if it was about the weather a simple brolly would do. http://www.youtube.com/user/kdwyermedia
I don't watch TV!
Get a clue, Emmi. It's the same scam, different name!

Being a free thinking person, and not a programmed via indoctrination (like Emmi), I am able to research and not ignore the facts and real scientists who have also proven that Global Warming, Climate Change, Ice Age, and Angering The Gods, claims are nothing but rubbish.

Lord Christopher Monckton's video explains the lies!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stij8sUybx0

They are being duped by certain Elitists who wish to CONTROL and obtain POWER and MONEY by these scams.

People like Emmi, who wish to believe these Elites has a right to do so, but DO NOT FORCE your lies to the rest of us and say they are the truth.

DO NOT FORCE the rest of us free thinkers into having to PAY MORE TAXES based on these.

DO NOT FORCE the rest of us free thinkers into having to GIVE UP RIGHTS based on these lies.

DO NOT FORCE the rest of us free thinkers into having to ACCEPT your CARBON FOOTPRINT scam based on these lies.

Lord Christopher Monckton Speaking in St. Paul is amazing!!!!

Emmi obviously was too frightened to even look at the video. lol

Anyway thanks to people like Emmi, who is allowing the New World Entity to try to take over America and hand over all of our rights with the use of their Global Warming Lie:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NIN-PqcsN0

Hand over our money to them!
The Copenhagen Treaty (Global Warming Treaty) will void or Constitution.

Thanks for dooming us all!

This is bigger than you could even imagine! This is a plan that has been put in place many years ago, before you were even in diapers .

Emmi, this is way beyond your understanding! This Global Warming LIE is only a tool used to destroy America and it's sovereignty. It is being used to create the one world government.

Does that even compute in your little world?

Stop the LIE and Keep America Free!

Stop Obama from signing the Copenhagen Treaty!

BTW, I am wondering if Emmi is a Communist.
Help spread the word:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NIN-PqcsN0

Stop Obama from signing the Global Warming, Copenhagen Treaty!

Help Save America from a new Global Government!

Remember, they create the "CHAOS" and then they conveniently create a "Solution".

The Global Warming lie is the tool they are using to end American Sovereignty.
Yup! This new global government has swindled a lot of people already. Don't trust a word they say.

Actually it's you who sound frightened, ijeannie. You obvously think that anyone who studies global warming is some mind-control master. But whomever got to you obviously did a much better job brainwashing you than anyone here ever could. My sympathies.

Not a communist, but I do have a Master's of Science in Environmental Studies. What's your degree in?

[this is good]
I missed the post day but I see some people are into the discussion. One thing to any Americans is that they should look at how and where all that energy and power is coming from. The US does not produce enough oil its coming from overseas which causes all sorts of problems.
[this is good]
[this is good]
This is good news. It does not make any sense to not take care of the planet eart.
[this is good]
It does indeed matter on where you live, So if it is overheating. i would advice everyone to move to the coldest place on earth.

I Am a little late on this topic. But i thought i would share a little.

Hackers release e-mails & falsified reports proving global warming is a SCAM:
http://www.mrc.org/timeswatch/articles/2009/20091123105110.aspx

Emmi,
Hehehe, the truth always comes out!!!

Bet Emmi feels stupid right about now. Bet she never even heard the Russians hacked the site and posted all the scamming proof on the internet.

HA, HA, HA, HA, HA.

Global Warming, Climate Change. It is all a lie!!!

Download your copies of the scam and read the e-mails & see the reports for yourself!


E-mails even show their plan of destroying scientist who don't follow their orders and help spread the Global Warming lie.

That is just awful!

Shows how news organizations help to try to hide the real data! This thing goes way to the top -- Gore, Obama, United Nations!

Thank God for those Russian hackers!!!
Emma, BTW what does that say about your so-called "degree"? It only proves that you can help spread the lie or the scare tactic of the moment.

You can only repeat back what they teach you. A real scientist would have studied the countering data, which you obviously did not want to research yourself. The true data that your colleagues were trying to suppress! Shame on all of you!!!

It is people like you that have helped to keep humans in darkness.

The truth will always set us free from your evil cohorts.

;) You're making me laugh with your conspiracy theories. I'm not trying to be disrespectful, Jeannie, but do you have any idea how paranoid you sound? Scientists are just gathering boring old data. They're not Dr. Strangelove.

Here is a post I wrote, coincidentally addressing some of the issues you bring up.

http://maya857.vox.com/library/post/climatologists-behaving-badly.html

Oh, my apologies - you don't get your information from tv, you get it from YouTube. Even better. Lord Monckton has a degree in journalism. For those of us keeping track, journalism isn't even a field of science.

Hey Alicia
You are my kind of thinker. Please join my neighbourhood.

What action on climate change?

*refuse to go to Copenhagen because I would definitely NOT be able to live up to the Gore-ians with their big footprint SUV's, and their PRIVATE JETS. Hey sneakers don't cause much 'carbon' footprint!

I think the biggest cause of "Gore-bal warming" is him and others like him talking and now we have to hear more about them after Denmark .... aaaaahhhhhhhhh!

Actually since most of the earth appears to be in a cooling trend rather than warming, they should have distributed all the money they spent going there to you and I and kept their footprint to a minimum.

However since I have tried to emulate Al Gore, I am sorry I just CANNOT live up to his standards of misrepresenting facts in his movie "An Inconvenient Fairy Tale" and to the amount of 'carbon' he spreads all around the world every time he opens his mouth.

Carbon is actually good for the earth because WITHOUT IT WE WOULD NOT EAT! ALL plants take in carbon dioxide in order to make food. So WHAT is so bad about it? Al Gore sure LOOKS as tho he LIKES FOOD! Also there never has been any conclusive evidence that carbon has anything to do with warming. Think about it .... when you light something or burn leaves, the carbon dioxide goes into the air and is taken in by plants to make CARBOhydrates. To me that is good.

And I also cannot even come close to using as much energy as his house does. In fact I believe it would take me and 10 of my neighbours to come close.

Warming is good if it was happening.
For more info see http://windbag-energy.blogspot.com and http://pressing4truth.blogspot.com.

I think Al has been GOREd by his OWN BULL! (:-) Especially now that ClimateGate is out!

I agree with Kerstin ... who agrees with Alicia who agrees with ...

Hey did you hear that Al has been GOREd by his OWN BULL?
YES! Did you hear that Al was GOREd by his OWN BULL?
[this is good]
YES! Did you hear that Al was GOREd by his OWN BULL?
And it always has mfn. I live near Toronto Ontario where we have fossils that could only have been formed in warm tropical seas. However Toronto is not even near tropical now!!!

Do some Googling about the name Lawrence Salomon. You will find the media hype is a bit over the top and now with CLIMATEGATE, probably WAY over the top!
Actually Emmi
Now that ClimateGate is out, perhaps YOU SHOULD do some more research. In fact by simpling googling Lawrence Salomon or the same in YouTube you will discover that what the media has convinced you of, is NOT the truth.

Check out http://www.financialpost.com/analysis/columnists/LawrenceSolomon.html

The media?? I didn't learn about global warming from television. If you did, I'd suggest that sitting in front of the tv isn't the best way to learn about science. Take some classes.

I read the scientific studies. And during my graduate studies I took several courses that covered global warming research.

Has Lawrence Solomon conducted any studies which I can read?

elli, give it up or at least present your argument in a different way,all the facts are against you,do we need to find a new power source yes,can you prove with any facts that the earth is warming ,no, as a matter of fact everything coming from nasa,and any weather watching agency says we are really getting cooler.

you have no real facts to back you up.......

ken, give up.

I wrote a whole post complete with scientific studies.

Get back to me when you have time to address the research I've presented.

you can present research that santa claus exists,but you have no proof,you can show all the slanted studies you want,but the bottom line is the earth is cooling right now,the facts are against you, if you want to save the planet,or show that the burning of fossil fuels is hurting the earth,you will have to go about it from a different angle,right now with the earth cooling, you look like your running around saying the sky is falling.
It seems like quite a number of the skeptics of climate change are coming from the North America, since this is being politicized by people like al gore. Probably they are not experiencing the bad weather, the rising temperature, the rising sea level, and the extinction of species and habitats. That may have been the reason why european countries are advancing in eco-communalism (not communism) and slowly moving away from the extreme capitalist beliefs. They want to be independent and sovereign like the US too, by focusing on saving the environment instead of sending people to war. If you don't want to sign the whatever protocols that involve the environment, why don't you prove that you can be an example of a country that is lush wish greeneries and stuff. Go to Africa and see what is happening. In fact, the US has always been the leading superpower of the world in almost everything and impose rules on other countries as if they are not sovereign. And your demand for energy has caused other countries to get involve in the deterioration of the environment. Have a thought on that?

Well said.

All I have to say is that I wrote to Obama and told him I'd not be voting for him again if he didn't get much more serious about environmental issues. I doubt he'll listen.

Emmi,
Conspiracy theories? You mean the one about the World Bank controlling your Global Warming "Slush Fund"?

Did you hear about the Danish text leak? Yeah, that exposed your "World Bank" that's going to control your Global Warming "Slush Fund".

You are probably unaware that you are being used by these people to help them push their Global Warming TAX agenda.

You have been programmed to regurgitate what they tell you and not be able to think for yourself.

I make you laugh? You are too sad for me to even feel bad for. I don't even pity you because you want to be tied to the lie. You don't even want to know the truth because you are too far gone. It is easier to continue the lie than to admit you have been lied to all these years and that you are being used.

Your so-called scientific studies are provided by GOVERNMENT employees.

The Russian Hackers have already exposed you and your colleges as the liars you are.

We don't want your global warming RELIGION and we don't want your TAXES! Stop trying to steal our money and our rights and get a real job and let us live our lives without your intrusions!

Did you even bother to read any of the hacked e-mails or statistics? Of course not, because you have been programmed to not think for yourself and surely not to read anything that your programming finds questionable.

Na. Didn't think so. Very, very sad.
Moneysaver, Emmi is so totally programmed by the media that she WON'T DARE looking at anything other than what has been authorized by her fake scientists and paid-for Washington politicians.

See we aren't afraid to look at all the facts and research many sources. We aren't afraid to think for ourselves. We can see beyond the main-stream media bull crap that is being spoon-fed to us.

We can pretty much tell this whole thing is total bull $h*t and we are getting sick and tired of it.

Come on, The Carbon Footprint Offset was created by ENRON. Daaaaahhhhh.

Hello? SCAM here! SCAM ALERT! SCAM ALERT!!

Thanks for the links, BTW! Can't wait to check them out!
Sorry, Emmi, but the Russian Hacked e-mails prove that it is all total bull crap.

This is a natural cycle that has been going on for billions of years. 10 years of fake data is only good enough to fool you but not the rest of us.

Sorry, Charlie!
31,000 Signatures Prove ‘No Consensus’ About Global Warminghttp://www.aim.org/briefing/31000-signatures-prove-no-consensus-about-global-warming/

Robinson said that in recent years the U.N. and a group of 600 scientists, representing less than one percent of the scientific population, reached a “consensus” that global warming is happening. This has never been done before, Robinson insists.

Dennis Avery, Director for the Center of Global Food Issues at the Hudson Institute, agrees with Robinson. “Nobody can do science by a committee. You do science by testing,” said Avery. “To me it is appalling that an international organization of the stature of the U.N. would ignore the evidence of past climate changing.”


Yup! Man Made Global Warming is not a fact, It's a RELIGION!

Global warming has become the burning question of the day. Now it is high time to take concrete step to stop global warming. This problem can be solved by mutual cooperation of the countries only.

I don't really care about american government (and who the heck is this al gore anyway?). I'm not speaking on behalf of your US presidency or whatsoever, but if human beings can do open burning that causes regional haze, animal extinction, and massive wildfire, it is not impossible that they can cause global warming. This is happening everywhere in the third world countries (and I have witnessed it). Maybe you should start to visit these countries and evaluate yourself instead of blindy trusting the russian hackers (and why are they only russians?). It seems like you are only worried about having to pay extra money for the government. And I don't really care about that.

From the link you have given it shows how selfish and irresponsible this Robinson guy is. Going green is about advancing in technology as well. Unless you don't do R&D, humans will never go down with technology. Life is improved by problem solving, and that is part of science. He never mentioned countries like Japan that manages to incoporate modern city with lush greeneries. And they still prosper. Technologies help the third world countries to develop themselves while sustaining the environment (because we still have trees to spare). But instead, we are forced to feed the capitalist needs by being brainwashed into pushing our economy into the max, while ignoring the R&D in it. For example what will happen when there is no fossil fuel left in this world? With proper research, you might be able to increase oil production twicefold.With proper research, you might have to use other resources to replace oil.

Remember that there is always a pros and cons in scientific achievement. I bet if there millions of scientists who thinks like Robinson, the world will suffer badly through pollution. The only technology genocide we will see is coming from his ideology which is filled with ignorance under the disguise of 'freedom'.

That's why people always said the americans are so rich with environmental resources that most of them never learn to appreciate it.

Wake up guys. This isn't about a religion, politics or whatsoever. This is responsibility.

All that talk yet you don't actually address the evidence. The Earth processes. Global warming. It's an Earth Science issue. Universities teach it in their science classes.

If you doubt peer review process, I hope you don't go to the doctor or drive over bridges. Because their methods of doing their jobs are based on science, just like those of climatologists.

If you don't want to discuss the actual evidence, I'm not convinced you understand anything about it. All of your references are media sources. You're just parroting what others have brainwashed you into believing.

I've acutally done soil surveys, community ecology assessments, what have you done having to do with Earth Science? Have you even read a single study?

Right on, mfn. We Americans can all sit here drooling all over our couches while the Maldives sink and get destroyed by hurricanes, while the corals and mangroves die, while Kenya suffers a drought, because we're the lazy, overprivelleged people who would rather watch reality tv than crack open a book. It's shameful.

As I mentioned to my neighbor; this is the same debacle as when the Creationists went on about evolution. Worshipping nature instead of God. That's what's bothering them. Add to that the fact that big oil has Republicans in their pockets.....

Don't worry, some Americans actually read the studies and we're determined to do something. I just wrote to Obama yesterday telling him how disappointed I was with his environmental record thus far.

Cui bono?
