humans have a less impact on global warming, most of the global warming comes from things that are natural like: methane, volcanoes, etc.

It's still funny though when the BS Global Warming graphs come out. "Last year it was fuckin' cold, and now it's like a million degrees. My 90 degree line on my graph will show you"
It may be 46,000 square miles, but where's the z-axis? How many [I]cubic[/I] miles?
[QUOTE=DarkendSky;31340356]It may be 46,000 square miles, but where's the z-axis? How many [I]cubic[/I] miles?[/QUOTE] I dont know
46k melting... but how much is forming?
guys don't worry since 46,000 square miles has no thickness no ice is actually melting
[QUOTE=faze;31329691]Um...Earth and Mars are both heating at pretty much the same rate. It's kind of the general consensus among the scientific community that this is natural.[/QUOTE] What the fuck? No it isn't?
[QUOTE=JeffAndersen;31327019]Why does that make you think "Poor polar bear"? Maybe it's a small patch if ice and he's using it to his tactical advantage of hunting seals. Maybe he's just trying to dry off.[/QUOTE] We know that there have been bears that have drown because they couldn't find ice to stand on and we know polar bears are becoming endangered. Polar bears can swim but they can't forever.
[QUOTE=Taishu;31341021]What the fuck? No it isn't?[/QUOTE] Shit even wikipedia says it isn't [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_opinion_on_climate_change[/url]
[QUOTE=faze;31329691]It's kind of the general consensus among the scientific community that this is natural.[/QUOTE] That is the opposite of the scientific consensus. One could say... the polar opposite.
[QUOTE=faze;31326633]Mars is also heating up the same way Earth is. Global warming is mostly natural.[/QUOTE] The fact that this post has gotten 11 agrees makes me slightly sad. Are people really that dense?
[QUOTE=faze;31329019]Of course it's happening naturally. Mars is heating up as well.[/QUOTE] I don't see how mars heating up proves that earths is natural. (you could explain this) I mean its pretty much been proven that the rate at which we are warming isn't natural and are CO2 is to blame. Not only that but organisms are going extinct 1000 times faster then normal. [QUOTE=Taishu;31341167]The fact that this post has gotten 11 agrees makes me slightly sad.

[QUOTE=mastfire;31341438]But you have to think of it, all living animal give out CO2 and methane, volcanoes have the effect. before dinosaurs became extinct earth was way hotter than this.[/QUOTE]Well of course before dinosaurs became extinct the temp was different that was 64 million years ago. No one is saying that the earth doesn't change but the climate definitely doesn't change this fast normally. Unless animals are farting more then its obvious its are huge amounts of co2 thats doing it.

Yes! No more of those damn Polar Bears!!
[QUOTE=mastfire;31341546]Fixed. animals fart methane not co2, humans and rest of the animal kingdom exhort large amount of co2 by exhaling.[/QUOTE] If it was just the animal kingdom then it wouldn't explain the sudden increase that we are seeing.
[QUOTE=mastfire;31341546]Fixed. animals fart methane not co2, humans and rest of the animal kingdom exhort large amount of co2 by exhaling.[/QUOTE] But then plants use it in photosynthesis, producing oxygen as a by-product (the CO2 that is) The methane is a problem however
A little known fact: if you leave you house the first time the next day, you breath 1L of methane. methane world wide: [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/36/airsmethane20062009359h.png/][IMG]http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/9196/airsmethane20062009359h.png[/IMG][/URL] some wiki compy pasta: In addition, there is a large (but unknown) amount of methane in methane clathrates in the ocean floors. The Earth's crust contains huge amounts of methane. Large amounts of methane are produced anaerobically by methanogenesis. Other sources include mud volcanoes, which are connected with deep geological faults; landfill; and livestock (primarily ruminants) from enteric fermentation.

[url=http://breathingearth.net/]this little thing[/url] is also quite interesting. although it's just a simulation it's still very striking if you just leave it on on a tab in the background and then go away for a while. it also tells you how long you've been watching. when you come back and look at the co2 emissions you're possibly going to be a bit surprised. from the site: [B]The Breathing Earth simulation[/B] Welcome to Breathing Earth. This real-time simulation displays the CO2 emissions of every country in the world, as well as their birth and death rates. Please remember that this is just a simulation. Although the CO2 emission, birth rate and death rate data used in Breathing Earth comes from reputable sources, data that measures things on such a massive scale can never be 100% accurate. Please note however that the CO2 emission levels shown here are much more likely to be too low than they are to be too high.

Methane will only become an issue if (or rather when) man made global warming melts the permafrost, thus releasing the large amounts of trapped methane into the atmosphere.
Okay, now I know I've been awake for far too long, I read that as "Ice Cops".
As my science teacher said, global warming is obviously happening but there is not enough scientific evidence to prove without a doubt that humans are causing it.
[QUOTE=Stormcharger;31343358]As my science teacher said, global warming is obviously happening but there is not enough scientific evidence to prove without a doubt that humans are causing it.[/QUOTE] Your science teacher is an idiot then. There is plenty of proof that global warming is anthropomorphic. Not only that, it is also the scientific consensus.
It's summer in the northern hemisphere ya daft cunts
