Still trying to find the bacteria reference. Will get back to you.

Ahh Nelson, commentary of my freind of few words...so refreshing!

I don't recall any sane scientist talking about reversing the warming but rather addressing the issues and doing our part to stop adding to it?

And do not get me wrong either, I didn't mean to imply that science is without lies (it most definitely is wrought with them).

Exactly which publication are your numbers below from?

Climate change comes from aaronmalys' hot air.

Everything that AGW believers have observed to prove the existence of AGW has been witnessed before. For example, receding ice caps. All other evidence seems to be based around computer modelling ie hasn't happened.

Consider:

Greenhouse gases makeup 1% of the atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide makes up 3.5% of Greenhouse gases. (water vapor 95%).
Man is responsible for 3% of CO2 emissions.

The biggest contributor of CO2? Bacteria.

As I said above - reducing pollution is a good thing (CO2 is not a pollutant). If the planet is warming, then it is not man-made and we should be spending money on adaptation not reversing the warming. Impossible and therefore a waste of money.

You do amuse yourself, don't you!?

Hey Aaron you didn't vote for your favourite lie! Come on, Join in.

So, though your thought itself is based in pure science, your in complete denial of the scientific findings that have come forth showing how the acceleration of the problem has been man made over the last century?

Either you buy scientific finding or you don't. Had you said "God willed it", then at least we would know where the thought process is coming from.

So the sun is what:
a. getting hotter?
b. moving closer to the earth?
c. pissed at the earth and using the cosmic karma to get back at it?

OR?

The sun, Aaron, it's just the sun. Simple as that.

Hey Maulman, I can see you and I are going to have some fun...so pray tell...who or what is responsible for Global Warming!?
