Just a side note...why would incredible amounts of precipitation falling on Denver negate global warming?

A failure to grasp the difference between weather and climate, I suppose.

To quote Robin Williams, "we are way beyond global warming; we're now cooking."

Anyone who doubts changing and absurd weather patterns, only need to look at what occurred in Australia over Christmas. It's the middle of summer here, and on Christmas Day the residents of Melbourne had their first white Christmas in history. Yup, in the middle of summer, when the temperatures average in the low 30s (Celsius) in that city in December, it snowed. I don't mean a little bit, I mean streets turned white and needed ploughing snow. In my home city of Brisbane, which is in the state of Queensland (known as the Sunshine State as we have pretty much year 'round sunshine), Christmas Day was a scorcher in the high 30s Celsius (which was actually quite a few degrees lower than it has been in past years, and one of the "coolest" Christmases in a long time), yet the very next day I was walking around my apartment wearing a jumper, track pants and socks, and it was bloody cold.

But remember, there is no global warming......

Happy New Year, Pogo.

I think you might be right.

Florida is experiencing temperatures in the mid 80's which is very warm for this time of year. That's just weather.

It damn well better be, eh? I think we're due for one right about now.

I never claimed that it did.

I continue to be amazed at how Kinetic can consistently come out on the wrong side of every single issue. I can only conclude, having viewed the enormity of his work spread over the entirety of this board, that Kinetic is really just a "devil's advocate." Kinetic, you don't have to fess up publicly, but please email me to let me know that I am correct. There is no way a person could truly be so abysmally ignorant of most things. . .I refuse to believe such a thing about a fellow human.

I am not wrong on the issue of human caused Climate Crisis and Global Justice. How am I wrong? Do you always insult those who you are critical of?

Wait, Kinetic, are you saying that you think global warming IS a problem and that it is human caused/accelerated?

And RW is an authority on this subject isn't he ? Yeah, like the inventor of the internet al bore. He's ALSO an authority on the THEORY of global warming being caused by human activities.

*hyperventilating*

"The oceans will be boiling soon if we keep driving those cars."

Lets ignore the fact that the planet goes through it's own phases of warming and cooling having to do with many many variables, many of which we are unaware of.

We seem to like to think that we little, nearly insignificant humans with our little "goings ons" have such HUGE impacts on gigantic systems.

One things is certain, we're arrogant as hell

Global warming is good for the northern states in America. I never denied that the earth is heating and cooling throughout history.

What I am in serious doubt over is whether humans cause it all and if humans can actually control it. There are many reasons to disagree. For one, the Arctic Ocean was once a balmy 74º. Maybe it's going back to it's original state?

I disagree with the Conservatives.
