I personally believe it is because for millions of years there have been the same global issues that there are today. That's just my opinion though. Share why you guys chose your answer.

Global warming? You mean Global cooling? Or was it actually warming? Hmm I think it was climate change at some point. Maybe it's seasonal shifting these days? Hard to keep up
-
I believe that the Earth is currently in the warming period of its ~40,000 year cycle, and we shall soon (relatively speaking) be going into an ice age.

1 RespuestaEditado por Heathen_Nature: 2/14/2017 3:12:24 AMI believe that global warming is a 100% natural thing that with or without mankind would happen anyways. But that actions of man has sped up the process

1 RespuestaPeople who don't believe in Global Warming are literally -blam!-ing morons.

3 RespuestasActually, it's been colder and much more snowy in Washington this year, so take that for what you will

No. But I do believe that a group uses it to push their political agendas.

1 RespuestaI do simply because of the apocalyptic date setting they continue to do and how the story keeps changing. The other big reason is how hypocritical the big proponents are in the movement. In the 80's it was global cooling with a massive ice age shift by the 90's. That of course never happened. In the 90's and early 2000's it was global warming with the ice caps melting by 2015-2017 and a 60 foot sea level rise. The polar bears would be gone. A 2-3 level rise in temperatures would occur among many other things. This of course did not happen. Now its climate change with a catastrophic climate shift by 2030-2040. So now if it cools or warms it can just fall under climate change making them "right" no matter what. After 2040 who knows what they will call it. Seasons perhaps? They keep changing the circumstances and moving the dates which shows me they know nothing. Each and every one of these were scientific FACT and if you denied it you were ostracized as a filthy "denier." Yet they were 100% wrong. This is the equivalent of the crazy "end times" advocates that claim every year is the end. Ask yourself, if someone told you that Y2K, 11/11/11, and 2012 were going to be the end and each one came and went why would you listen and believe them when they told you that 2020 would be the end? They are also hypocritical and do not practice what they preach. The Denmark conference is a prime example. All these politicians and scientists refused the offer from Denmark to basically carpool and "plane-pool". Denmark promised to send the planes and cars to try and cut down on emissions for everyone coming. Hundreds of private jets and limos came instead. They didn't give a shit about emissions if it impeded on their luxury but expect everyone else to care. Maybe they should lead by example. Another example is Leonardo DiCaprio. He owns about half a dozen cars, a private jet, and several mansions. He flys everywhere on his jet and his homes alone equal the carbon footprint of a small town of hundreds. Yet he preaches and demands that us little people give up our cars and be mindful as he flies across the world in a private jet and uses more electricity to heat and cool empty mansions for a year than most would use in their entire lifetimes. Why would I listen to such blatant elitism and hypocrisy? Finally they do not impose sanctions on the biggest and literally dirtiest countries. China and India have roughly 5 times, if not more, carbon emissions than the United States yet they are not forced or coerced to follow any standards that America does. So if they really cared about emissions why not target the countries that are so dirty and destructive that they literally have lakes of waste and piss foam in the streets (India) or have midday turn into midnight from smog (China). Those should be their focuses yet it is not. Its usually "evil America" and sometimes Europe. If they focused on the real problem countries then i would have more respect. Call me whatever you want but after being lied to for 30 years by people who produce more carbon than i ever will in my life, I find it hard to believe the constant changing stories. Do we have an impact on the Earth? Absolutely yes. Is it to the apocalyptic extent they keep preaching? No.
-
To think that humans have little to no impact is ignorant. To think that were in super dire need to change it? Who knows. Humans are amazing and I don't see us going away tbh. Unless it's a meteor or alien invasion.

5 RespuestasI feel like we're not getting the full story. There should be one big, non-biased, completely objective, non-political study done to get the absolute truth and other studies from different sources done as well to either confirm or criticize the original study. Same with vaccines.

I think it's real but it's blown out of proportion.
-
I personally think Man made global warming is not real. What do believe, is the earth has natural high and low periods.
-
It's happening

I believe it's happening, but not nearly as much as it's being pushed.
