Global Warming - weebls-stuff forums

It is true that the excessive fog we are creating is increasing the greenhouse effect that we naturally have and will eventually melt the ice caps, causing the world to flood?
Or is it just that the earth goes in a 20,000 pattern from being the closest it is to the sun, which we are getting close to that, and the farthest it is away from the sun, which may create the next ice age?

I agree with the second opinion. While I still think the harmful gas that comes out of our cars is not good, there is still not enough proof to convince that it is causing global warming.

It depends on who you ask (and more importantly who is funding their research!).

But.....at the moment the latest thinking seems to be that global warming would occur anyway (it's a natural phenomena) but mankind is making it happen faster than it normally would.

Just what the implications of this will be no-one really knows.

*Edit* Should just add.......the ice-caps melting wouldn't cause wide-spread flooding, it's the thermal expansion of the oceans that would do the most damage.

Global Warming is also known as the greenhouse effect and actually is caused by tiny creatues from the domain archae. They are known as methylogens and there are many of them, they produce gases that greatly contribute to global warming. But i do think that humans don't do to good either, i don't mind it.

No, we're going to blow ourselves up. Forget the icecaps.

That end of world thing is the best thing there has ever been made (apart from weeb stuff).

I think that global warming was a mistake, it wasn't strictly true but has now been championed by lobbyists with an environmental agenda. I think we should cut down on emmissions wherever possible but the lobbyists have a much stronger weapon in misleading people into thinking that it's the end of the world rather than respiratory diseases will increase.

I think that scientists are exaggerating the speed at which all this stuff is happening to scare people

Not me. When I die I'm having my head cut off and frozen in carbonite. Then, when the technology exists at some point in the future, I will have my head thawed out and stitched onto a clone body.

Carbonite unfortunately exists as a medium for freezing people only in the Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

WHAT?!?!!?!? But I've paid a company called LongLife.com £10,000 to freeze my head in carbonite when I die!!!

Are you saying I've been had?
