Discuss. How real of a threat is it? Is it possible it's being used to push agendas? Is it being exaggerated?
Please back up your claims.

Completely exaggerated, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to reduce the amount of ozone-busting chemicals emitted into the atmosphere.
Back up this claim? Well, I'm smart. 'nuff said.

there is clear evidence of global climate change in some areas.
however, i think that we over-exaggerate our impact on the environment, at least thermally.
i just read something this morning about salmon in the yukon river getting all these diseases and stuff because of warmer water temps, and the fishers have to feed em to the dogs.
things like this certainly are problems, but they are apart of a larger geologic and meteorologic cycle over which we have no control.

certain areas are seeing he effect much worse than ever. it may not effect everyone in this lifetime, but the CO2 emmisions are at a point where something does need to be done for an energy source that doesnt pollute as much. its nieve to think we are not impacting the earth and nature, so i think it is an important and crucial topic that needs to be addressed now.
edit: and to add- i do realize there are natural hot cycles on earth, but they were caused by complete natural process. The rise in temps. now can be completely natural, but evidence proves that c02 increases it as well. so ya theres that arguement.

i don't know the answer, but i do think we need to reduce emissions and stop polluting our earth. we are a fucking cancer to this earth.
wish we could go back in time and live like the Indians.

My opinion on this subject is,i dont care.You see,by the time global warming is ever a threat,ill be long dead! most humans live to be like 55? except for those that live healthy,so yea ill be long dead....given my current lifestyle i should be dead by january!
But it may be true,im not sure because we just had a major flood down here that has only ever occured during 1993,or the floods of 93'....but that one was much worse,this one just flooded every1's home in this states basement.and yes it seems the weather patterns are changing dramatically,we are getting snow in the spring-early sommer, and are getting warm days in the fall-winter....very strange Iowa behavior to be sure.

Well, I'm of the mind that the weather patterns are definitely changing, but as to whether or not this is due to human activity I just don't know for sure, and neither do the climate scientists, really.

well here's one to ponder; rising atmospheric and surface temperatures will not adversely affect the planet Earth. During the Jurassic period atmospheric CO2 levels were nearly 4000ppm (compared with a measly ~300 now) and average temps were over 5*C higher than current (in other words, 5 times MORE than the shift of the last 100 years), yet we had one of the most lush planets in the galaxy.
I love the environment, and I'm a huge proponent of it, but I get really buggered when people claim we need to stop polluting to save the planet. the planet will be fine, it's US that will be fucked. We live on a giant chunk of dirt, and it's not going anywhere... but if we love our beautiful trees, grassy fields and wildlife, we need to get our asses in gear, and quick

yea I feel our planet is fine. But are we? I feel we will change the planet at such a fast rate that many species, including us, will not adapt. But life we still flourish on afterwards. Still for the sake of human life we should stop what we're doing.
Also I think human life we be drastically changed by a nuclear war long before we are from our polluting.

Global warming is a natural part of earths weather cycles.
They taught us this WAY back in the 70's. Well before we could actually measure the temperature change.
Our planet is moving from an ice age into a warmer age.
Any influence humans have is virtually insignificant.
Should we stop polluting the planet.....yes
Are we the cause of Global Warming......no

global warming is definately a natural process, with many natural contributing factors. But our contribution to it in the past half century is obviously higher than normal. Natural global warming doesnt happen as fast as it is right now. Thats why during the jurassic period things did well in the heat, because slow change led the species to adapt to the temperatures. As fast as its going we are in for a treat in the next 100-200 years.
I dont think we are able to stop it but we can at least slow it down somewhat

I was thinking today about how everything on this planet has its place some assholes call a "circle of life" and all organisms depend on each other. Well I then thought what is mans place? I think we are here to protect the planets life processes but we are doing a shitty job of it and burning up millions of years worth of stored energy up in hundreds of years.... can't be good.
The world as we all know it will end some time soon. No internet, no power grid.... no wall-mart. Get reading those survival books!

Um your an idiot,why should i care about something that probablywont effect me? seriously if it get 200degrees outside and im in a tomb then why should i care?....retard
Because you (arguably) might have children and grandchildren. Ideally you would want the best for them, enough so to overcome your selfish tendancies, and leave something worthwhile for them.
I'm of the opinion that we would be far better off with about 1/10th the world population. Not that I wish death on 9/10ths. Just in an ideal world there would be FAR fewer people.

it's not an assumption, we have hard data of past global temperature trends. Anyone who can read a graph can tell that wowitch is correct

well let's think of it this way... Over the last hundred years we have seen the population grow enormously, mainly due to health advances and increase in agricultural production.
Also what we've seen in the last 100 years is the introduction of the use of planes, cars and other motorized transportation.
If the population continues to grow at this rate who knows what's in store. Certainly more and more resources will be used and more energy burned. Never before in the earth's history have we seen a species with the energy needs of humans.
Either way it is a huge assumption. But given the rapid changes in the last hundred years; rapid human population growth, use of fossil fuels ect it's not hard to propose that we are changing our planet faster than we can handle. It is also only getting worse.
100 years is a short time for all this to happen IMO. And certainly a short time in regards to the cycles of the planet.

fixed* but seriously technology is both a savior and a menace. Atom bombs and pace makers.

i'd be happy with no "technology" and living like the Indians used to, hunting and gathering, smoking the peace pipe, living off the land and respecting it.
