In my opinion, the earth is about to flip to a hot state and multiple positive feedback mechanisms are beginning to kick in that, combined together, will raise global temps by a few degrees in a matter of a months.
A few degrees in a matter of months. I doubt it will. Do you want to place any bets?
Happy to!
Tell you what....if in 2 years from today, the sh$t has not hit the fan, I will come back on here and post a new topic apologizing for being wrong and begging the forgiveness of all deniers. (I really will!)
If, however, in 2 years, the sh$t HAS hit the fan, I ask that you do the same!
Mark your calendar my friend because this is a bet that you will lose.
Most current Co2 production is from the earths ocean. There is evidence that as oceans warm up they release co2, and that co2 rises in response to temperature change. THis destroys al gore and his fakers.

This is false. Stop talking about Al Gore, and start listening to scientists.
The ocean is currently absorbing some of the CO2 which is going into the atmosphere. It is a sink, not a source of CO2. That's why oceans are acidifying (this is an experimental fact, not an opinion or conjecture).
It is also true that as the oceans warm and get increasingly acidifed, they will be able to absorb CO2 less easily.
This means that future emissions will add even more to the CO2 in the atmosphere and global warming will accelerate further.

They found that the city of Houston at night is a full 10 degrees warmer than the surrounding area- completely due to human activity and environmental change (concrete).edit on 6-2-2012 by CB328 because: (no reason given)

That is just a local heating... It does not affect the global climate in the least... This fact is corroborated when you get out of cities the temperatures immediately decrease...
This is the problem with the AGW proponents...every one of them is ignorant of everything that has to do with Climate Change, and CO2...

Of course global warming is real - the hoax is that man caused it or can do anything about it.
It's a UN globalist scheme to keep 3rd world countries impoverished & tax the hell out of industrialized countries & China laughs at us cause they want no part of it. But you have idiots like Algore & his minions running like the sky is falling. It's just naturally occuring earth changes - ive read we are actually headed for a mini ice age but whatever.
Peace

That's because we have been preventing kinks in the jet stream with HAARP.
Guess what? It works!
Here it is in action over Canada.
If "Global Warming" were not a hoax, then why would scientists have to fudge their data to prove it?
If "Global Warming" were not a hoax, why would it's proponents make a concerted effort to go away from the term "Global Warming" and now just call it a more ambiguous "Climate Change" instead.
If "Global Warming" were not a hoax, why do temperature models from the past 10 to 15 years show a global climate that has actually remained quite stable overall?
If "Global Warming" were not a hoax, why has the table been set so that the "1%ers" of this planet stand to gain the most monetarily from its' advancement? (doing even more damage to your cause)
Even Al Gore, the "inventor of the internet" himself, in all his "Global Warming" zeal leading the charge with his film "An Inconvenient Truth" (a documentary where many "inconvenient truths" were found "inconveniently false") has damaged your cause.
Listen. We all want a cleaner environment. Cleaner running fuels. More efficient automobiles. Cleaner air. A greener planet. Etc... Etc... Etc... Doesn't matter what side of the fence we're on regarding "Global Warming", I think most here would be lying if they said they didn't. But trying to get us there by alarming the world populace with false tales of a planet warming at an out of control rate is not the right way to go about it. Slapping an overbearing "Kyoto Protocol" on the developed world is not the way to do it either.
This planet's climate is changing. It's been doing it for millions of years.
Let's just sit back and enjoy the ride and it's surroundings instead of attaching alarmist agenda-driven theories to it's natural processes.
