FACTS

Nos 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9 and 10 are all straw men to the man-made climate change debate. Please try and understand what an informal fallacy is, El Nino. It will help your ability to debate here immensely.

No2 Using a disproven argument is tantamount to LYING, El Nino. The satellite data was wrong because their orbits had changed and this had not been taken into account in the calculations.

No6 Carter works for this right-wing think-tank:

He's in no position to accuse anyone of being political, unless he's a hypocrite.

MYTHS

It's a MYTH that scientists are saying Nos 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10 in the first place. LMAOOOOO!

Nos 5 and 6 are also straw men.

Climate change: A guide for the perplexed
"Our planet's climate is anything but simple. All kinds of factors influence it, from massive events on the Sun to the growth of microscopic creatures in the oceans, and there are subtle interactions between many of these factors."

Climate myths: Assessing the evidence
"Truth is the first casualty of war. As the political battle over climate change has heated up, so has the propaganda campaign. On one side, green activists sometimes exaggerate claims about the possible consequences of global warming. On the other, sceptics seize upon anything that appears to suggest that climate change is not happening, is not due to human emissions, or will not be a problem."

[El Nino]

Rogers, The climate is always changing... always has and always will... long before man and long after. CO2 is a life giving compound and it's abundance is key to vegetation proliferation (Key component in the photosynthesis equation). If you think a bunch of hack politicians (by imposing additional taxes and making the cost of living more expensive), can alter the ocean currents, decrease the severity of storms, control the variations of solar intensity, etc.... you are pipedreaming. It's a political scam and you seem to be a victim. Science and politics/government are more tied together now than they ever have been, unfortunately. Do not think that they are somehow inseperable. They are using the same M.O. as they do to rally public opinion into war (Fear-Mongering, essentially).

Read the following article and get a grip on the real agenda, which is attempting to be implemented by a modern, global corporatocracy.

Al Gore Refuses to debate this scientist!

[hippifried]

We can't control vulcanism, & shouldn't be messing around trying to. The same goes for the natural gaia effects on climate change. We also can't stop an asteroid or comet from slamming into the earth if we should be so unlucky before we develop the technology to do so.

What we can do is control our own actions. Even if there was any credence to the deniers' claims, fighting the desire & willingness to clean up our act is a counterproductive disservice to mankind. Does anybody really think it's a good idea to keep pumping crap into the air?

[El Nino]

I agree with you here, Hippi. We should focus on REAL environmental problems that we contribute significantly to... and there are a bunch. Not fall for this Carbon scam, which is overtly corporately driven

Al Gore Refuses to debate this scientist!

Al Gore's not a "scientist" per se'. He's an organizer. He's doing a pretty good job at it. If anybody wants to take him on, all they have to do is develop a more powerful organization to promote their ideas or lack of them.

As for the YouTube "scientist": The deniers haven't been able to pass the peer review at all. Who cares about some yokel trying to sell a book?

[El Nino]

Youtube didn't appoint him his credentials, man. Youtube is just an outlet, like it can be for any person. Debate the content of what he speaks of if you are trying to make a point. Regardless, Al Gore (the multi-millionaire grand organizer) won't debate Monckton. Gore is a corporate tool and bases his side of the argument on highly selective 'fluff'!

[hippifried]

Monckton doesn't have any credentials. There's no content either. That whole interview is just a bunch of whining because the people who have credentials aren't giving him a platform to sell whatever it is he's selling.
