[QUOTE=Kalibos;32937815]according to [url=http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?record_id=12781&page=1]this paper on climate change[/url] "The average temperature of the Earth’s surface increased by about 1.4°F (0.8°C) over the past 100 years, with about 1.0°F (0.6°C) of this warming occurring over just the past three decades"
do with that what you will[/QUOTE]
I Do remember that lecturer saying that the earth is getting warmer but only a little part of that increase is caused by Humans.

well don't believe everything anyone tells you
Just my belief on the matter that there is no doubt the world is shifting it's temperature, that is with out a doubt, but I don't believe that humans have a significant impact on the result, therefore there is little we can do to combat it.
There may be a general scientific consensus , but that consensus is about whether it is real or not. Many research teams that albeit are part of the consensus are also disputing over how it came to be, rather.
So it's fair to say any data provided or scientific proof provided isn't necessarily the end all be all answer to the question: "why is climate change occurring". as it is only one person's or team's research, not the results of the scientific community's general consensus.
Like you said, don't believe everything anyone tells you. Especially if there is more than one side to the argument who also displays irrefutable proof that determines otherwise.
If you believe there was an ice age, and if you believe that we are currrently not in the ice age, then I guess the earth is warming up. Probably silly to say the Earth would ever be at a specific temperature. Hard to tell if humans are affecting the earth's clilmate.
Global warming is a political issue not a scientific issue.

No. It's p easy to tell that we're affecting the climate very much.

Do you have sources for that? (you can repost what someone else has already posted)

BTW, that's not me, that was my dad. I have no clue how he posted on my account O_o.
[QUOTE=Potanis;32963766]Do you have sources for that? (you can repost what someone else has already posted)[/QUOTE]
why not? why not just read the dang thread and see why what you posted is wrong? why should he have to do the thing for you that you were supposed to have done before posting?

first off, if you don't post proof that what was posted is wrong, you can't say it's wrong. second, that wasn't me you nitwit, that was my dad. so how bout you read what I've posted before you get on my case about me not reading what other people have posted. (and I have read the thread. just saying)
I don't care what the thread says. And yes, i've read it all the way through.
The damn thread still doesn't represent the entire scientific community involved in this matter.
There is NOT a general consensus on WHY this is happening. This means that as of now, there is NO truth so there is no point in debating who is right and who's wrong.

If you read the thread you would know that the general consensus is that its greenhouse gasses largely caused by humans.
"Global Warming [B][U]Hoax[/U][/B]" = Title
Not a hoax... it's happening, and its man-made
[QUOTE=Potanis;32966516]first off, if you don't post proof that what was posted is wrong, you can't say it's wrong.[/QUOTE]
it's already been posted
[QUOTE=Potanis;32966516]second, that wasn't me you nitwit, that was my dad.[/QUOTE]
well he doesn't know what he's talking about either
[QUOTE=Potanis;32966516]so how bout you read what I've posted before you get on my case about me not reading what other people have posted.[/QUOTE]
what have you posted? what're the real posts by you and what are the fake ones
[QUOTE=Potanis;32966516](and I have read the thread.)[/QUOTE]
don't seem like you have - because if you had, you wouldn't be asking for stuff that's already been posted

Please tell me where you got your information about the scientific consensus on global warming.
I love the fact most of these Hoax websites claim that Global Warming is a hoax because winters are getting colder, when surely it should be getting HOTTER!?!!?!!? Ultimate fucking herp derp
