global warming?

[chesters1]

 

That's not showing me what you know. Tou clain to know that the climate cannot be altered by the activity of man. Show me how you know this.

I have never said climate cannot be altered by man i know man did not kick start the latest warming period because it started before man was capable of altering the climate the biggest change occurred from 4000 years ago global warming was well on its way long before that

I always say man does not help the situation not he has started the situation ,man himself is part of the problem but not all the problem thats cyclic and would ,has and will happen if man never existent

Man compounds the problem by burning fossil fuel and cutting down the very thing that would lessen the effect of burning fossil fuels ,our very numbers force us to cut down the lungs of the world so we can feed and **** our way into oblivion ,we are certainly not helping what is naturally occurring

I think that manufactured fear comes in many forms and the global warming could be another one being exploited

And you don't think that all those climatologists have not thought of this, have not controlled for this in their calculations?

In fact the biggest change began around 1970 - 43 years ago.

There are multiple issues of science, politics, economics and pragmatism.

 

I think humanity will stop burning fossil fuels when it runs out of economically worthwhile reserves or no longer needs them. I think current policy merely alters who has access to cheap energy, and in doing so fuels the economic and political ascendency of China and India at the expense of the West. I think all our attempts to de-carbonise our own economies will make no net difference to global CO2 emissions. I think that if the models are correct, we would be better investing in sea defences than in wind turbines.

Steve,

 

Can you give a brief explaination of the chart above. I can't figure out the "meanings".

It's the share of the world CO2 output by country, historical to 2009, henceforth predicted.

 

For another view:

Steve,

 

Ohh, I get it. Odd they don't "cross over" each other at some point isn't it?

They're stacked percentages in the first one, so they can't cross (and will always add up to 100%)
