Global warming has been in and out as the "latest" hot topic for many years. It is, according to modern scientists, the result of man-made industrial pollutants, clearing forested areas, agriculture, etc. But now they are thinking it started way before the Industrial Revolution...Global Warming: Natural Or Man-made? - Page 18
Shoot, why stop there. The dining sleeve probably represents more square inches than the one square of toilet paper. Why not just finish your diner and use the sleeve, but not throw it away. The later when you go to the restroom you can use the sleeve as well as the square. All she needs to do now is hook up all her great ideas with that guy from RONCO and you gotta hit!
Love her music and loathe her politics. Heart is in the right place, but we might be attacking the wrong thing here.
I suppose that that polycarbonate that comprises your CD is a eco-gem.

It seems now that ocean currents are responsible for the Global Warming.
| QUOTE |
| Hurricane forecaster William Gray said Friday that global ocean currents, not human-produced carbon dioxide, are responsible for global warming, and the Earth may begin to cool on its own in five to 10 years. Gray, a Colorado State University researcher best known for his annual forecasts of hurricanes along the U.S. Atlantic coast, also said increasing levels of carbon dioxide won't produce more or stronger hurricanes. He said that over the past 40 years the number of major hurricanes making landfall on the U.S. Atlantic coast has declined even though carbon dioxide levels have risen. Gray, speaking to a group of Republican state lawmakers, had harsh words for researchers and politicians who say man-made greenhouse gases are responsible for global warming... |

Global Warming: Natural Or Man-made? History & Civil Business Politics
Did we put the Mars Rover up there with a gas engine? Looks like we poluted Mars with the Rover. They are already seeing global warming on their planet. Bush is not only detrimental to our planet, he is ruining Mars too! OK...all jokes aside, this is just more evidence that perhaps there are other factors at play (sun's strength, natural cycling...). Either way, it isn't clear that CO2 is the cause, but it is no reason not to clean our environment.

| Rather off topic, but... Too bad we don't have historical temperature estimates for Mercury. That would be a really key piece to determining if the sun is changing significantly. |

ARCTIC SEA ICE MELTING FASTER THAN MOST SCIENTISTS PROJECT: STUDY
Arctic sea ice is melting three times faster than many scientists have projected, U.S. researchers reported Monday, just days ahead of the next major international report on climate change.

Just quietly, I wouldn't mind so much if Sheryl Crowe touched me as long as I didn't have to hear her sing. I agree with Farseer, Karl Rove is not the best person to approach on this subject or any other. That man is the pupeteer of Bush and will soon drown with him. Enough said bout Rove.
I always find it sad when celerities are needed to help people wake up or beieve in something. Since when did actors or singers become experts about science? Shouldn't people seek the truth rather than be told by Sheryl Crowe or Brad Pitt?
LDS, Every single theory that comes from Fox news should be dismissed without question. If this theory had any weight or credibility it would feature in reputable science journals, not a gutter right wing entertainment channel.

Global Warming: Natural Or Man-made?
Climate messages are 'off target'
Alarmist messages about global warming are counterproductive, a leading climate scientist argues.

I'm hearing this from American farmers as well, that the high prices being paid (or promised) for corn crops to be used in ethanol will push the price of corn for food to skyrocket, and even to have it in short supply.

| The Co-op report claims there is a future for biofuels, but current targets for growing so much fuel could have unintended consequences, BBC correspondent Damian Kahya says. Professor Dieter Helm, a senior advisor to the British government, told the BBC: "The sort of targets being set for biofuels will have quite radical effects on agriculture and therefore will have very substantial consequences for food prices and agriculture more generally." The report says that around nine per cent of the world's agricultural land may be needed to replace just 10% of the world's transport fuels. This means the production of biofuels could lead to a decrease in land available for food production in countries where famine already exists. "People are felling rainforests to plant crops to grow energy fuels, biofuels," Professor Helm said. "Think of the energy involved in felling those rainforests. Think about the damage to the climate being done by the loss of those trees. Think about the ploughing and the cultivation of fields. "Think about the transport of those fuels, and you start to realise the carbon imprints are about much more than simply what happens to grow in a particular field at a particular point in time." |

When I wrote about climate change being caused by volcanoes several months ago I didn't bother to go back and do my homework because I didn't remember "The Year Without a Summer." I was reminded the other day and it all came back. Volcanoes can make our weather cooler in a few hours. I believe, if left alone, the earth's temperature is pretty static and will warm back to a predetermined temperature after a large volcanic eruption, but the following is unquestionable evidence that it takes something gigantic to change the temperature of the earth like three volcanoes in quick succession. With the following facts being indisputable, why, if we mortals are really warming the earth, don't we just blow ash into the air and cool it down? Because we are not capable of either heating, or cooling the earth. How arrogant to even think I might.

| Description The unusual climatic aberrations of 1816 had the greatest effect on the American northeast, New England, the Canadian Maritimes, Newfoundland, and northern Europe. Typically, the late spring and summer of the northeastern U.S. are relatively stable: temperatures (average of both day and night) average about 68-77 °F (20-25 °C), and rarely fall below 41 °F (5 °C). Summer snow is an extreme rarity, though May flurries sometimes occur. In May of 1816[4], however, frost killed off most of the crops that had been planted, and in June two large snowstorms in eastern Canada and New England resulted in many human deaths. Nearly a foot of snow was observed in Quebec City in early June. In July and August, lake and river ice were observed as far south as Pennsylvania. Rapid, dramatic temperature swings were common, with temperatures sometimes reverting from normal or above-normal summer temperatures as high as 95 °F (35 °C) to near-freezing within hours. Even though farmers south of New England did succeed in bringing some crops to maturity, maize (corn) and other grain prices rose dramatically. Oats, for example, rose from 12¢ a bushel the previous year to 92¢ a bushel. Causes It is now generally thought that the aberrations occurred because of the 5 April - 15 April 1815 volcanic eruptions of Mount Tambora[5][6] on the island of Sumbawa in the Dutch East Indies (modern-day Indonesia) which ejected immense amounts of volcanic dust into the upper atmosphere. Other volcanoes were active during the same time frame: La Soufrière on Saint Vincent in the Caribbean in 1812 Mayon in the Philippines in 1814 These other eruptions had already built up a substantial amount of atmospheric dust. As is common following a massive volcanic eruption, temperatures fell worldwide owing to less sunlight passing through the atmosphere. |
