Ecoman - "money stolen from us through unrepresentative carbon taxes will be used to fund world government."

lol! Paranoia at its finest, and even funner as s/he didn't offer a single shred of proof to back up his claim. :-)

Let's face it - we've got more than 2000 scientists from around the world who, through years of research and observations, have concluded that humans are primarily responsible for the warming planet.

And on the other side of the debate, we've got people like Ecoman here, who are actually willing to deny this factual evidence.

Not unusually, these are usually the same people who pull out the 'Al Gore is making money out of the climate change deception' line and expect people to take them seriously.

Amazing.

The polar icecap is melting at the fastest rate ever.

But the earth is cooling? Well according to some it is.

Would any climate change deniers on this board care to explain how the laws of physics are somehow working in reverse here?

Until credible proof can be provided to show how a cooling world is causing the polar ice cap to melt faster than ever, we can only assume climate change deniers are reading bogus news and believing it.

In fact, 'global cooling' as a theory was debunked only last week.

After a quick examination of the facts, it was found that the crackpots behind the global cooling theory were doing what Sarge did above ("Colorado just got dumped with 46 cm of snow.") - that is looking at a very short-term event (ie: last year's weather) and extrapolating it to create the illusion that it is part of a long-term trend.

It is definitely not. The planet is warming faster than ever, and it's not being helped by all the hot air being blown about by the climate change deniers.

Along with random quotes with no credits is your defence. Ask the U.N ask the W.M.O or other respected bodies. thee facts are there to be seen , globel warming is globel and current.

Can we really trust totally corrupt organisations like the EU and UN to distribute this money to 3rd world nations (most of which are governed by crooks anyway)? Realist and Sundoor, you're both on the money: money stolen from us through unrepresentative carbon taxes will be used to fund world government. I doubt much of this money, if any, will make it to citizens of the poorest countries. At the same time we'll get slugged with restrictions on freedom of speech and movement, high taxes, and our kids will be continued to be brainwashed with this climate change bollocks at school.

Climate Aid? A farcical name made up by developing countries to squeeze money from developed countries. I mean seriously! What are they going to do with the money to stop them using things that would cause greenhouse gasses? Want to save the planet? Kill humans off.

Sundoor Thank God for someone like you! The world has been hoodwinked long enough by crooks like Al Gore and the "global warming" brigade. Gore has made a fortune from this lie. Despite his despicable decetion that "sea levels will rise and engulf many cities, including San Francisco" he recently bought himself a nice seaside pad overlooking Fisherman`s Wharf in SF - for a cool $4 million! The audacity of the man knows no bounds. Mass media like BBC World News are major players in the massive deception - churning out stupid programmes about global warming every five minutes. Gordon Brown and Obama both have delusions of grandeur - both have claimed that they will "save the world" from climate disaster at Cobenhagen in December. The world needs saved from both of them.

"..counter the effects of a warming climate.." "..avoid a catastrophic rise in sea levels.." "“This is about reducing the manmade temperature rise..”

From BBC News October 9th, 2009:

"For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures."

"...warmest year recorded globally was not in 2008 or 2007, but in 1998."

Thanks realist. I was going to trust the word of a majority of the world's scientists but your highly informed comments changed my mind. Thanks again!

Global Warming is the biggest scam of this or any other century. Its a complete myth - worse, its a complete LIE. The Earth is currently cooling and all the garbage about cutting Co2 emmissions is rubbish. The biggest producers of C02 emmissiions are the people who rattle out all the crap about non-existant "global warming." Do you folks actually know whats being planned for us all at Copenhagen? A World Government - which will be communist. Payment of non-existant "Climate Debt" (sic) to Third World countries - the most polluted countries on earth. Obama and Brown, the two communist-leaning Western leaders, cant wait to sign away our freedom in December.
