Global Warming Can Not Be Denied.
We can dispute whether Global Warming was caused by human activity, or whether it is the result of a cycle, but not that the temperature of the planet is increasing.

It's the end of the ice age, folks. But you can stop feeling guilty. Mars, Jupiter, and other bodies in the solar system are also showing signs of global warming. In fact, Earth's increase has been less by percentage than these other places, meaning Earth's biosphere may be attenuating the effect.

Still, environmentalism is good just for the sake of environmentalism.

 You know, I haven't heard any good comebacks for that bit of data from environmentalists.

Though there are definitely some natural factors, the GREAT majority of global warming is happening because of humans. We always look for instant gratification for anything without thinking of the consequences that can be wrought by the decision.

Why, yes, and the sad part is people still deny it. They believe that it's no big deal. Hmm, what should I say? I've never gotten a sunburn in May, and I just did.

I don't think that it is possible for anyone to deny that the world's temperature is increasing. Whether it is through natural or man-made causes, we still can not deny that global warming is real.

Global warming is a pretty big topic but, it should be considered before any action can be done.

The symptoms of Global Warming are all around us, and the fact that some are wasting time trying to make it seem that human intervention is having nothing to do with it makes me sad. The most likely story is that, because of a generous amount of carbon and greenhouse gases, the world is getting warmer as the Earth's atmosphere is retaining more of the Sun's heat. To be frank, scientists should stop debating the existence of Global Warming and be on the side of caution and try to find some way of making a potent difference. Fusion anyone?

It's pitiful to see people posting in the against column of this debate. The oil companies and their prostitute scientists (sic) originally tried to deny that global warming was occurring. Then we had something like the 13 hottest years in recorded history all occurring within a 14-year span. After that, they abandoned that obviously no longer viable strategy and worked up a new one : Global warming was occurring but it was a natural cycle and not caused by human action. Even this is a ludicrous, "Earth is flat"-style argument, but there are a few so-called scientists, funded by the oil companies, who maintain it.

It's obvious that some of the less well-informed of America's right-wing crowd haven't got the memo about the change in propaganda strategy, and are still clinging to the old line about global warming not actually happening at all. It's like one of these Japanese soldiers discovered on a small island in the 1960s who thought the Second World War was still going on.

 you wanna know what's REALLY pitiful? that fact that an entire planet has succumed to this green propaganda, and their garbage science. and for a fact, there is more scientists who don't believe global warming is man made then the ones who do. google it if you don't believe me. do a bit of looking, and you will find a massive list of scientists who oppose environmentalism. most of them climatoligists, geologists, and biologists.

allow me to explain the science.
when the sunspot levels are high, less solar radiation is emmited. this allows more cosmic radiation to hit earth. this stimulates cloud growth, blocking solar energy, and bringing cooler temperatures. when sunspot cycles are low, more solar radiation is emitted, which blocks out the cosimic radiation. this in turn stifles cloud growth, bringing about warm climates.
this is based on O16 and O18 isotopes found in lake sediments, ocean sediments, ice cores, staligmight cores, and skeleton teeth.

so as you can see, the claim that global warming is a natural cycle is not based on "flat earth" science.

People over exaggerate the effects of global warming look up about global dimming and you can see why we need to think before we do anything about global warming

To say that it CAN NOT be denied is to say that it is impossible to vote against this statement, so as soon as I hit "submit" I will have proven you wrong.

Oh, how easily people are fooled. This year has been even cooler than last year. Hell, people still wear jackets outside, and it's the 18th of may. The beach was dead on the long weekend in May.

Stop buying into the Eco-terrorist propaganda.

 Wow, people wear jackets at your place? I'm not being sarcastic, but seriously, people are getting sunburned and dehydrated here.

Sites like globalcooling.name and www.globalwarming.org have information about how global cooling is the real danger.

Major scientists and climatologists are saying that we are now entering a cooling period. These are all cycles that the earth goes through. Stop listening to Al Gore, he is the least expert in any field.

If you are a fan of science you should always be skeptical, test and retest, and not accept the debate as being over. Scientific questions are never concluded if there remain serious objections to the conclusion. To say that it cannot be denied sounds a lot like those who have faith, but not a scientific mindset.

The globe is warming, but not at a rate that will harm us in the near future. So there is no reason to be panicing about it.
