The truth is the world could be changing because of global warming, Magnetic sphere shifts or even something we have not even researched. But what kind of problems would come from moving away from primitive fuels and moving to natural energy sources? Seriously, who would that hurt more, the 'average' people or the rich oil tycoons and the people they pay off to keep the world the same? What would it hurt for people to drop their pride and try to save the world for later generations?

Early in March, Arctic sea ice appeared to reach a maximum extent. However, after a short decline, the ice continued to grow. By the end of March, total extent approached 1979 to 2000 average levels for this time of year.

I am not a great supporter of the nuclear option but if helps reduce CO2 emmissions that has got to be seen more as a positive than a negative. I would prefer to see more sustainable and environmentally friendly options being encouraged and invested in coupled with a reduction in energy usage overall. However the latter option would require international agreements on reducing material consumption and energy usage as well as a new 'consumer' mindset geared towards sustainability.

Random, I was just joking with you. I love plants, took Botany in college. I have a green thumb, I plant natives, a major problem we can point at Gore for is his helping to expand GATT to the WTO, which made the invasion of Invasive plants that are destroying native ecosystems much more common You ever check out Vegetable Man by PF?

@OZcheckm8 More life as in mosquitoes...yes? I did read that mosquitoes will tend to be abundant due to global warmings affect on seasons too. I'm still somewhat skeptical of your theory. How is it possible that more Co2 will make more life?

The BBC are running a new series,it is called 'Beautiful Minds'.The programmes centre on brilliant Men and Women in science who's thinking and discoveries have led to huge leaps in our understanding of the World and the Universe.The second programme in the series highlights the fantastic contribution of James Lovelock in recognising that the Planet Earth was a delicately balanced and self regulating system for the survival of life.

@Niightversionn I checked out the report and noticed something in their graph. The rise in temperature from 1910 to 1940 was greater then anytime after that. So the rise in temperature since then, is well within what would be considered normal, and seems to have no effect from the industrial period. Also, the AR4 report didn't come out until 2007, yet the graph stops at 2000. Is this the other way they are trying to hide the decline since 2000? lol
@vengencefrom1979
@PainTrain87 a rise in CO2 in the atmosphere needs a reason. where would you propose that it is coming from? spontaneous creation?
@treefoxxx
Sunspot and solar radiation activity almost exactly parallel temperature changes on the Earth. It correlates well with the anomalous post-war temperature dip, when global carbon dioxide levels were rising very fast. The increase in solar radiation prevents the formation of clouds, which have a cooling effect on the planet, therefore the temperature rises.

Sea ice extent seemed to reach a maximum during the early part of the month, but after a brief decline, ice extent increased slowly and steadily through the end of the month. By the end of the month, extent had approached the 1979 to 2000 average. During March 2010, ice extent grew at an average of 13,200 square kilometers (5100 square miles) per day. Usually there is a net loss of ice through the month.
@KnighttVision
Among other things, the group, known as the Joint Inspection Unit (JIU), found: When it comes to existing multilateral environmental agreements, or MEAs — international treaties for such things as preserving biodiversity, protecting wetlands and migratory species, and halting desertification — the U.N. officials responsible for implementing the agreements told the inspectors of a "lack of high-level support" from the organization's collective top leadership.

I'm not so sure the fossilsaurs need to worry about environmentalists using the baby drilling disaster in the gulf . Environmentalists just worn the public about stuff that isn't obvious, like potential for oil spills. Fossilsaurs may need to look out for angry fishermen. If I was Obama man I'd ask for an equal investment in alternatives for every dollar spent on the offshore baby drilling.
@TemperatureVariation
@MarkNobes, did you know that 80% of worlds volcanoes lie in the oceans? They do produce CO2. Also, may you explain how the acidity experiments were done? The alarmists leaked hydrochloric acid into the water, instead or releasing CO2 into the air and letting it work through the system. The proper experiment shows that coral reefs will flourish in CO2.
@KnighttVision
"So, in answer to the question, the warming rates for all 4 periods are similar and NOT STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT FROM EACH OTHER." 1860-1880 0.163 1910-1940 0.15 1975-1998 0.166 1975-2009 0.161 So where in those numbers from Jones do you see the massive increase in industry and population having an effect?
@KnighttVision
Continuing habitat loss, due to activities such as agriculture and logging, is cited as the principal threat facing most bird populations, with invasive species and disease also having a serious impact.

@randomlaughingman Clara, Did you reserve your first class ticket to Marshal Applewhite's UFO taxi service? Where to first, Europa, Or Nibiru? Have you talked to Donestra lately?
