Global warming is for real says Chief Scientist of the US

[Shinigami]

Apparently he finally confirmed it.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/6994760.stm

I guess that makes it one more who agrees that global warming is not just a spoof, greenhouse gases are for real and perhaps Al Gore has some truth in his movie...

So to all the nay sayers, feel free to discuss

(meanwhile, I'm getting the fuck out of this thread, lol... I just wanna drive my car and enjoy my V8 :p )

US CHief Scientist LMAO too much data says otherwise mate

It's just stupid to call him a chief scientist... simply a BUsh Aid

And reading the article, I see nothing frought with combating the overwhelming evidence that GW in fact isn't as told. Just simply "agreeing" with somebody elses statement... no combating the facts of measured science in the last 400 years where 4 separate times that C02 was at a higher concentration then right now...

The man just isn't that intellegent.

He's probably saying that so he doesn't get sacked.

Actually man, what experience scientifically do you have in the climate industry? I spent over a year working directly on hardcore research and data analysis in climate models with NOAA and NWS....

what are your credentials?

I guess the head of MITs department on such subjects has no grain of science.... And hes just one of thousands.

I always thought the argument with Global Warming was not if it was actually happening, but what the cause was.

I have no doubt that Global Warming exists, however I am skeptical about the causation of it. I think it's just a natural cycle that the earth endures every 20,000 years or so. I really don't think man kind has played a big role in the cause of it.

I read that in 1 year the earth's volcanos emit more carbon monoxide than all of man kind has produced in the last 65 years. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but it gives an idea of the small role that we play in comparison to the earth's natural events.

When the asteroid hits that we never saw comming and all of mankind is destroyed, none of the global warming crap will make a difference anyway.

Watch Inconvenient Truth and then watch this:

Pretty interesting as well as you can make up your mind on whats right and whats not.

I suppose some guys will believe in global warming when they die suffering from extreme temperatures, flood, running out of water, freezing or some other disaster.

Is it so hard to understand the risks and take precautions, even if they may not ever happen?

but.... all those things were happening long long before man ever had causation in pollutants and... scientifically and logically speaking... its stupid

You make those precations sound so minor. Sadly they involve millions more starving to death because of harmed economies.. Would you trade millions now for a what if 100s of years in the future?

I think it's carbon dioxide, or greenhouse gases in general, but the general idea is that humans have very little impact on natural processes on earth. It is foolish and arrogant to think that we can change the world.

Third world nations are constantly denied technology to develop and get out of poverty, because the green lobby doesn't want their governments to pollute the environment by building power plants. This is very prevalent in Africa. In the name of climate change, aid is denied.
