The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center for the People &
the Press, conducted Sept. 30-Oct. 4 among 1,500 adults reached on
cell phones and landlines, finds that 57% think there is solid
evidence that the average temperature on earth has been getting warmer
over the past few decades. In April 2008, 71% said there was solid
evidence of rising global temperatures.
Over the same period, there has been a comparable decline in the
proportion of Americans who say global temperatures are rising as a
result of human activity, such as burning fossil fuels. Just 36% say
that currently, down from 47% last year.

You might compare that with the number of lives lost on 9-11. Or the

It would have been cheaper in both lives and money to just suffer
another 9-11 every six or seven years.

As people got smarter they began to realize the earth was a spheroid
and it revolved around the sun.
This article says that "In April 2008, 71% said there was solid
evidence of rising global temperatures." and 57% today despite Kyoto,
Copenhagen, Al Gore and his host of human tools who follow his new-
found religion.
Science is often proceded by a popular vote. You have the reverend
Gore preaching his religion telling us we are going to virtually drown
as the world warms, Just a a year and 1/2 ago 71% thought he was
right. Then science has stepped in and skeptics have pointed out that
Al Gore flies in a private jet and lives in a house the burns enough
electricity as a small city and he's trying to sell us the re-
invention of the pet-rock called the "carbon credit." Now only 47% of
us agree.
No, it isn't. Science is preceded by curiosity.

Are we, the fossil-fuel-burning public, partially responsible for this
recent warming trend? Almost assuredly not.
These small global temperature increases of the last 25 years and over
the last century are likely natural changes that the globe has seen many
times in the past.
Human kind has little or nothing to do with the recent temperature changes
William M. Gray
Colorado State University
This small warming is likely a result of the natural alterations in
global ocean currents which are driven by ocean salinity variations.
Ocean circulation variations are as yet little understood.
Human kind has little or nothing to do with the recent temperature
changes. We are not that influential.
There is a negative or complementary nature to human-induced greenhouse
gas increases in comparison with the dominant natural greenhouse gas of
water vapour and its cloud derivatives.
It has been assumed by the human-induced global warming advocates that
as anthropogenic greenhouse gases increase that water vapour and
upper-level cloudiness will also rise and lead to accelerated warming -
a positive feedback loop.
It is not the human-induced greenhouse gases themselves which cause
significant warming but the assumed extra water vapour and cloudiness
that some scientists hypothesise.
Negative feedback
The global general circulation models which simulate significant amounts
of human-induced warming are incorrectly structured to give this
positive feedback loop.
Their internal model assumptions are thus not realistic.
Mainstream opinion believes that pollution contributes to climate change
As human-induced greenhouse gases rise, global-averaged upper-level
atmospheric water vapour and thin cirrus should be expected to decrease
not increase.
Water vapour and cirrus cloudiness should be thought of as a negative
rather than a positive feedback to human-induced - or anthropogenic
greenhouse gas increases.
No significant human-induced greenhouse gas warming can occur with such
a negative feedback loop.

Let's use the flat earth analogy again and say that 70% of the people

Throw in trucks of money and generous helping of hypocrisy and that's
Al Gore. You are right. He isn't a scientist. If he had an infatuation
with the internal combustion engine he'd find some goofball scientific
"facts" and he'd be selling negative carbon credits.

Tell that to the people at Enron who bet their life savings that we'd never

They thought we were too stupid to catch them, and that even if we did,
they'd still keep all that money.
They were wrong on both counts.

"Science" did not "step in" and reverse GW. The overwhelming majority of
actual -scientists-, and especially Climate Scientists all agree that GW is
real and is caused by human activity. You have a very small minority of
"scientists" who are making a lot of noise - most of whom are financed by
Oil or Coal interests.

From -your- cited article:
"The scientists say that other declining glaciers, like the South
Cascade Glacier in Washington, would be a better poster child for the
plight of glaciers in a warming world, which are indeed diminishing
overall as a result of climate change. It's just that Kilimanjaro is one
exception to the trend. Government photographs taken from 1928 to 2000
have shown that the South Cascade Glacier lost half its mass in that time.
�'There are dozens, if not hundreds, of photos of mid-latitude glaciers
you could show where there is absolutely no question that they are
declining in response to the warming atmosphere,' Mote said."
Climate change remains very real, regardless of what might be occuring
on Kilimanjaro.

You can't respond to it. Glacier ice has been retreating on
Kilimanjaro for 100 years and you think it's man-made global warming.
Paid for by special interest groups.

If someone wants to study the atmosphere and someone will pay them for
it, fine. It's the ox-cart lust with the exemption of China and India

I do appreciate you usingthe word "you" as in Americans. It's nice to

What I'm saying is everyday more and more scientists are coming out
against that and that is resonating with a cynical public.
And the Laurentide Ice Sheet has lost 99.9% of its mass in the last
20,000 years.
It is stupid to use Kilamanjaro as a glacial decline due to global
warming.

Grand money isn't going to pay you $10,000 for a single report - but the Oil
industry will. And with Grant Money you have to do actual work - and get
actual results that other actual scientists will agree with.
You and Juan have interchangeable brains and you appreciate them.
$10K is maybe 1 month's work for one person.
When you say the "overwhelming majority" - someone is paying all those
people. Those payers will be liberal governments.
It's called PEER HERDING!

Those who know, know that a cooler summer is exactly a
symptom described and expected in the global warming saga.
As global warming progresses, winters become warmer,
summers become cooler. thus the seasons appear to come
later, until finally they are indistinguishable from one
another. Under global warming it's said that the earth
takes longer to warm up and cool down. Notice that during
the winter, the temperature falls during the daylight hours
and rises overnight, this is an effect directly associated
with global warming, the signs are all there, you just
need the information to interpret them. Since most people
don't, they expect an almost straight line rise in
temperatures, if they don't see that, they think global
warming isn't happening.
There's no El Nino to blame warm winter temperatures on
this year, so now we'll see what happens, sans the el nino
arguments. They've predicted a very cold winter this year
because of the lack of the El Nino effect. I don't think
so, but then, I've paid attention to summer phenomena like
thunderstorms happening in December, of all months. My
guess is that even a short but bitter cold "snap" would be
all it takes to convince people that the winter is a really
cold one. People don't usually focus on the whether very
much, unless the whether is bad.
Few if any would take a calender and mark the daily temps
on each day. Fewer still will check the average temp over a
few months, and compare it to what the weather services say
is expected. So a cooler summer convinces people who don't
know what it's all about, that there is no global warming
happening, even as they're looking at precisely the
expected results.
Last April, when it 32 in Buffalo - That was global warming.
Last year the early snow is symptom of global warming.
Now cooler summers.
This is what happens when scientists are competing for grant money and
they don't get any if they cannot find evidence of global warming.

You need to read the whole global warming scenario through
in it's context, before you assert that it's self
contradictory. The idea is that as the earths atmosphere
retains heat longer because of increased CO2 content, it
also takes longer to heat, because CO2 raises the planets
albedo. Once the planet is "warmed", it takes longer to
cool. Thus winters get warmer and summers get cooler,
until, they expect that eventually, the four seasons will
seem to merge, with winter and summer being just about
equal in temp. You've already noted the dramatically cooler
summer part. You seem to resist the idea that winters are
warmer, probably because you are using only short term
local data. Try checking the regional reports.
In any event the debate is moving on, while CO2 is the
main initiat cause, they're now looking at secondary
threats that reduce CO2 to the level of "triggering
mechanism" for what may be to come.
It's called "suspension of disbelief." It's a way of life for the MTV
generation.

Uh, no. CO2 is absorbs heat energy.
Nope, ice ages have been known to come on brutally quickly, YOU need to
do some research before you open your half-baked Irwin Corey mouth
again, you stuttering simpleton.

Rapid onset of late Paleozoic glaciation on Gondwana: Evidence from
Upper Mississippian strata of the Midcontinent, United States
Langhorne B. Smith, Jr1 and J. Fred Read2
An abrupt change from carbonate-dominated sequences bounded by
disconformities with little evidence of erosion to mixed
carbonate-siliciclastic sequences bounded by unconformities with deep
incised valleys was likely produced by a three-fold increase in the
magnitude of eustatic sea-level fluctuations. The increase in the
magnitude of sea-level fluctuations was likely driven by an equally
abrupt increase in ice volume and marks the onset of the geographically
extensive late Paleozoic glaciation of Gondwana.

Are We on the Brink of a 'New Little Ice Age?'
Evidence for abrupt climate change is readily apparent in ice cores
taken from Greenland and Antarctica. One sees clear indications of
long-term changes discussed above, with CO� and proxy temperature
changes associated with the last ice age and its transition into our
present interglacial period of warmth. But, in addition, there is a
strong chaotic variation of properties with a quasi-period of around
1500 years. We say chaotic because these millennial shifts look like
anything but regular oscillations. Rather, they look like rapid,
decade-long transitions between cold and warm climates followed by long
interludes in one of the two states.
The best known example of these events is the Younger Dryas cooling of
about 12,000 years ago, named for arctic wildflower remains identified
in northern European sediments. This event began and ended within a
decade and for its 1000 year duration the North Atlantic region was
about 5�C colder.

he Younger Dryas and Other Rapid Climate Change Events Over the Last 110 kyr
The Younger Dryas (YD) was the most significant rapid climate change
event that occurred during the last deglaciation of the North Atlantic
region. Previous ice core studies have focused on the abrupt termination
of this event (Dansgaard et al., 1989) because this transition marks the
end of the last major climate reorganization during the deglaciation.
Most recently the YD has been re-dated using precision, sub-annually
resolved multivariate measurements from the GISP2 core as a 1300+/-70
year duration event that terminated abruptly. This was evidenced by an
approximate 7o C rise in temperature and a two-fold increase in
accumulation rate, at approximately 11.64 kyr BP (Alley et al., 1993).
The transition into the Preboreal (PB), the PB/YD transition, and the
YD/Holocene transition were all remarkably fast, each occurring over a
period of a decade or so (Alley et al., 1993).

Is what, say again komrade...
Yeah, but it also makes the atmosphere more reflective of
light, so while it imprisons heat, it takes longer to
accumulate heat because it's light colored. A black surface
will heat faster than a lighter colored one in the sunlight.
But, left long enough the light one will eventually get
just as hot as the black one, it just takes longer.
In any event, this conversation demonstrates that there's
more to it than just simple straight forward thinking would
allow. The naysayers take advantage of the complexities to
apply linguistic trickery to confuse the issue. Hardly a
wonder when trillions of dollars hang in the balance of
moving towards alternative energy sources. I've been
looking to see if anyone has figured out what wind energy
costs in terms of the oil used to build it? If, in the
end, it uses just as much oil, for the energy it produces
as other means, then the oil industry has a reason to love
it, even though it seems clean.
Well here you go again, off topic. But, did you see the
report about how the gulfstream is slowing down? It's
slowing, they say, because the ocean is becoming less
salty, which in turn is because of glacial and other ice
melts.

You seem to have forgotten this --->
Continuity of the deep part of the GRIP core has not yet
been definitively demonstrated. Until this is done, by
showing that gas composition records at GRIP are identical
with those at Vostok or by some other approach, the evidence
for rapid climate change in Greenland during the last
interglacial remains equivocal. <----
Warm Regards
Does OdOne even understand the definition of "albedo"?
Obviously not...
No....the topic is global warming, the climax state is glaciation, do
keep up.

They "suggest" as in they haven't a FUCKING clue!
http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn8398
Nobody is clear on what has gone wrong. Suggestions for blame include
the melting of sea ice or increased flow from Siberian rivers into the
Arctic.
The last shutdown, which prompted a temperature drop of 5�C to 10�C in
western Europe, was probably at the end of the last ice age, 12,000
years ago. There may also have been a slowing of Atlantic circulation
during the Little Ice Age, which lasted sporadically from 1300 to about
1850 and created temperatures low enough to freeze the River Thames in
London.
So you're saying they have "suggested" it?
Mubwhahahahaaa!!!!
Buy some muk-luks, you addled sot!
I see, you don't read very well, hardly a wonder you are
as you are. Carry on.
I see, you don't grasp that global warming _always_ precedes global COOLING.
