Did the deniers ever factor in the fact that there were never 7 billion wasteful greedy humans on the planet with there increasing supply of farting animals & their lust for raping natural resources etc, before. That's not cyclical, that's a fact of what's having an effect now.
We need to cull a few of them, starting with the denyers.

Well----- They have as much credibility as the Obama administration.

One volcanic eruption will far exceed the output of all those humans... So are you suggesting genocide to cure the issue ?

It may come to that when we are all struggling to find food & water to live & we are standing elbow to elbow & up to our knees in crap.

What you say is so, but this change is rather different. Look at the data and then make up your mind.

I would urge many to look at this site. You may just change your mind.

Looked at the site, didn't change my mind as it didn't say definitively that the change was man made, just "likely"... When they state things like "Scientists agree it is very likely " or this segment in it's entirety "Why does the temperature record shown on your climate key indicators page begin at 1880?

That happens to be when most of the land areas of the northern hemisphere started to report surface temperatures measured by thermometer to government weather authorities, who recorded and archived them. Scientists call this the “instrumental record” of climate. Prior to 1880, there are not enough of these instrumental records from enough of the world to produce estimates of global temperatures. Instead, temperatures from further back in the past are reconstructed from proxy records like tree rings, pollen counts, boreholes and ice cores. They’re less accurate, and because they’re fundamentally different kinds of data, scientists don’t generally put these proxy-based temperatures on the same chart as the instrument-derived temperatures." or this section "f we stop all greenhouse gas emissions, will global climate change stop?

Industrial activity has already pumped billions of tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and we have yet to see the full effect of warming from those gases. A great deal of excess energy imbalance is stored in the ocean and will be released gradually over time, continuing to warm the planet.

In other words, some degree of climate change is irreversible. Scientists call this the "committed warming," and estimate that the Earth would continue to warm about 1 degree Fahrenheit (.6 degrees Celsius) even if greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere stopped growing immediately. That is, if all human greenhouse gas emissions stopped tomorrow, the Earth would still warm for at least a half-century. " which supports my contention that we need to "cope" with warming changes as opposed to trying to stop things outright...Note they use the word "estimate" in the reply, meaning they don't know, but are assuming this will happen.... Inexact science if you ask me... We all know what happens when we ASSume things.

The U.N. has been turned into a wacko incubator. It wastes more money, more lives, and has no common sense. It has never, anywhere stopped any mass saluter of humanity.

Get out, it's a waste of money and lives.

Cold is the enemy of life, a little heat may return the earth to the lush jungles filled with bio-diversity of our planetary past. This all happened when CO2 levels were many times what they are today. The human factor is an unproven supposition.

I like what you're saying. Good post.

Maybe they can divert some of the water currently going to the golf courses, and let the farmers have some.

That would upset the CA. politician's fun.

So you are claiming the effects of the California drought somehow make global warming undeniable? I agree the effects of the draught will be felt but bridging that to global warming is anecdotal at best. Rather odd logic, or lack thereof.

bvm Loc: Glendale, Arizona

And the EPA isn't helping.

Blurryeyed Loc: NC Mountains.

Yes, but the drought has nothing to do with CO2 or Global Warming.... that's why they call it "Climate Change" so that they can point to anything and everything to scare you.
