The view outside my window this morning suggests that Global Warming is a load of bollocks, designed to part us from yet more taxes, as did the walk to the paper shop.
The view at 6am even more so...  |

ah but if you watched that film last night you realise that global warming isn't always about it getting warmer.
(Can't remember name of film....we only watched for 15mins and it was shit so we turned over)

Indeed - fantastic special effects but sadly sub-GCSE standard science for the plot.
I understand it was from the people who brought us Independence Day. |

| I fear that Ravey's Global Warming thread has met unseasonal winds and been taken hopelessly off course.

Its quite simple really. Warming melts the ice cap and this melting iced water dilutes with cold water the warm gulf streams that keep our climate moderate and hence make us colder.
The big problem with the global warming issue is information and trust. It is a sad indictment on the world leaders that they are not trusted to tell the truth or share accurate information. We are simply not given enough reliable information to make any judgments. Such is the record of lies mistruths, spin and deceit we simply can not believe what the likes of Blair, Bush and Brown say.
So called independent scientist have also consistently been discredited due to their collaboration with business in producing scientific evidence so very often they too can not be believed.
It gets so you have to go and trust your own instincts. My own is that the Earth is reasonably self containing organic body. Like any other body if you destroy its lungs and pump enough shit into it, it closes down.
Personally I think the mass de forestation of the planet due to atmospheric poisoning and to make way for meat producing grazing is destroying its breathing apparatus. I also think that to be in denial of the consequences of mass unregulated poisonous emissions is a little blasé to say the least. Put them both together and I find it impossible to ignore that we are affecting the Planets well being.
