Global warming proved to be fake

You do realize right that our current climate is what enabled us to evolve to humans, that our bodies are designed to live in this climate? You do realize that warming and cooling are meant to happen over thousands of years not hundreds? That's how natural warming and cooling work... much longer spans of time. Rapid warming or cooling throws the weather patterns out of whack and before we get to the warm point we can't survive (in another 100-200 years) we will have spent quadrillions of dollars in the attempt.
Also, what the hell are you talking about with farmers adding CO2 to their greenhouses? They do not. CO2 levels rise because the clear material (glass or now more likely plastic) allows solar radiance in but then traps the heat, and the more CO2 is trapped the hotter it gets. That's the whole greenhouse effect, and you have the nerve to call other people stupid? Do you even understand what the greenhouse effect is?edit on 17-3-2013 by Kali74 because: (no reason given)

Yeah, "by nature" - we are far from that now. Nature didn't release gigatons of fossile CO2 from igniting fuel.
This thread is another one of those where you can easily, far too easy spot the US-americans from the members of the rest of the world, with the possible exception of Chinese members, too.
I am sorry to say this, but if you ignore what we are doing right now, we altogether, billionaires and beggars, will suffer the consequences in the not-too-far future. Ignore science, tell us that the bigbad UN wants to stop your "american way of life" - nature will play a nice shoot-em-up with us. 2 degrees celsius more won't matter, it is too cold right now outside your window anyway?
Wellllllll - 2 degrees will destroy more than I could list right now.
You will see. I will see. We all will see.
This is not an "energy cloud from the galactic plane we are crossing", this is not "the barrier to the 5th dimension", this is a change in our planets ecosystem which far-but-very-possible-in-the-future-consequences we are able to see right now, right here, with a minor telescope:
look at the planet Venus.

Here I will repost this you must have missed it.
Could you please point out where co2 levels and warming go hand and hand.
I will admit co2 has increased in the last 100 years, but warming hasn't.edit on 17-3-2013 by rockymcgilicutty because: (no reason given)

I already post that I stood corrected on that matter. I just don't get why people would do that when CO2 levels will rise on their own in a greenhouse. It seems absurd.

It's frustrating to have to state my stance every single post. I've said many times now, I don't think global warming will kill the planet. I've said many times CO2 is not a toxin nor a pollutant. We learn pretty early in school that CO2 is good for plants. We also learn pretty early what the greenhouse gas effect is. We know that in a greenhouse, the more CO2 the hotter it gets and the less oxygen there is, so it's hot and harder to breath.
I won't drop 'global warming is real' because it is real, it's basic science. Despite how good CO2 is for plants and the soil and how we need it as much as need oxygen doesn't mean increasing it to the nth degree is a good idea. Warming is meant to happen slowly, in fact our ice age shouldn't be ending for another few thousand years, we shouldn't be as warm as we are now and definitely not as warm as we're predicted to be by the end of the century. So yes, the earth will go on, but it's highly unlikely that we will.
A new report written by Dr David Whitehouse and published today by the Global Warming Policy Foundation concludes that there has been no statistically significant increase in annual global temperatures since 1997. After reviewing the scientific literature the reports concludes that the standstill is an empirical fact and a reality that challenges current climate models. During the time that the Earth’s global temperature has remained static the atmospheric composition of carbon dioxide has increased from 370 to 390 ppm.
