How can people believe in global warming?

Especially when places are getting so cold animals are dying (like in maryland) and in the UK? Some people are even experiencing the coldest whether they have had for quite sometime.

Especially since we found out that scientist have been lying to make their theories credible! I still wonder how people believe in this. Anyone else agree?

No. Every single summer in my country has been warmer than the last.

The point is that the average temperature worldwide is going up.

I'm not a scientist So I can't say for sure. I personally don't believe it.

Because it's a real, natural occurrence that happens on earth.

Where's the proof? As far as I'm concerned all the current evidence is untrustworthy as we found out that scientists have been tampering with the data.

I do not believe man caused it but its evident that there is some sort of climate change going on, explain why we have already had two snow storms in NC ?!

It's natural for CO2 to fluctuate, but it shouldn't take a rocket-scientist to figure out that pumping pollutants in to the air isn't a good thing.

Yet polar ice caps are melting...Hmmm.Ace6301

Uh what? Do you understand what global warming can do to an environment? It can shift certain wind patterns and the like.. Meaning weather in general can become more brutal.. INCLUDING cold weather..

Fear mongering. Climate change happens, but it isn't how its made out to be by politicians and "climate scientists."

*in the voice of Jerry Seinfeld*

WHAT IS the deal with Global Warming?! If it calllled Global Warming, it should be getting warm! Right?!?!? I mean, c'monnnnn!"

I hsve a question. Where did you hear about scientists tampering with data?

No one with any actual information is denying that average global temperatures are rising; the only point of dispute is whether human behavior is significantly responsible.xaos

You'll believe in global warming when your summer lasts one extra month and it almost doesn't snow during the winter.

If you feel like you have a case against it's occurrence, then submit your findings to peer review. You could get published, possibly win a nobel prize, if you're right.

Edit: I love my new sig quote.

you kidding? in the middle east its winter yet I still eed the air condition from time to time in the car. its getting less frequent now that it January but in December it was so hot I sweated beads on my way home from school. Also it being colder in the northern parts of the world prove global warming is real, the warm ocean currents that carry warm air across Europ and North America are becomming weaker due to ice caps melting. the cold water is slowly making the currents weaker. eventually Europe and most of north america will be nothing more than a barren piece of frozen rock. Yeah Global warming is going to set off another ice age. Now that's not goingto happen tomorow but it will in the next 50 years (at this rate) hopefully Honda can manage mass producing hydroge fuel cells so that the emissions drop drastically. other than that you can recycle, choose green energy, and plant tres. but make no mistake Globabl Warming is happening.mayceV

Because the world is mostly calm, so people need something to fear. And it's a great business opportunity. And so many "scientists" have data backing it up. The error date in recording temperatures, is higher than the claimed climate change.

And what about the dust bowl? That was in the 30's. Even if global warming is real, you really can't go by temperature data. The earth's climate is ever-changing.

Same reason I believe in evolution, gravity and magnetism. wstfld

Because someone said so?

Those quotes have nothing to do with one another. Kennedy was warning about rushing to form an opinion while not thinking of it. Reagan's quote doesn't make sense. Why would you trust without verifying? Secondly over 90% of climatologists agree on the subject, that is an overwhelming majority. The research is there and has not been disproven.

There is a more recent one I'm trying to find of Antarctica that is pretty bad. I'm having a hard time hunting it down.

Of course it beats out conspiracy theories, but you don't know if they are bsing you or not because you don't understand the evidence being presented.

Considering how much the scientific community loves sniffing out each other's BS, I highly doubt they could have organized such an effort. You can disregard the opinion of everyone you've ever talked to, but unless you plan on researching the entire universe on your own, you're going to have to take the word of someone else in your lifetime.

That's bull **** and you know it. That's all the climatologists people choose to survey. And when was that survey done? Everything changes. And verifying global warming before we dump HUMAN'S jobs down the drain to protect something there's no proof of. That's like saying: "Someone is going to get sick, so we need to spend lots of money on it." And why hasn't government tested it? Gone out into the desert and dumped co2 in the air to see if it's real? Why is there no "hot spot" of warming that is quick to change? It's sun beams that will warm it. Not only that but how does the co2 get in the atmosphere? And what about volcanos? High up and spouting co2 constantly? Why is that area not dangerous? And what about (don't laugh) dinosaur farts? Wouldn't those make more co2 than cows. :P Ok that was kind of a joke but... why doesn't the government question this publicly? How can there be almost no doubt when we're not on fire and there's been no change for the average man?

99%?...Ok... So it's the scientists fault for presenting data that you don't understand and because you don't understand it...Means it must be skewed data. I think I got it now...spazzx625

I said that, I merely stated most of us don't know what they are saying is true, we believe them because they bring evidence, but do we truly understand said evidence? That's my point.

Well what about christians? There's more proof of God. Jesus was in the roman census. So either he was a scam or he was slipped in there by someone who sinned to prove he's real.
