Never once have I claimed to always be right. I am more than willing to listen to arguments on both sides of any issue. I have sat in on Tim Balls' talks. I have looked at and agree there are natural, and cosmic disrupters of climate change. That climate has continually changed. But I have also looked at a lot of peer reviewed science and agree that man is having an impact on climate outside the bounds of natural forces.
We can measure how much greenhouse gasses are expelled by volcano (200 million tonnes annually). We can also estimate the greenhouse gases produced by man. (24 billion tonnes from auto/industry annually) These are published numbers. (Scientific American) Yet still people on this site falsely claim that volcanos put out more greenhouses gases than man. Totally false. Yet the same people spreading such falsehoods claim that climate change is the lie.
Fjlip, warmer may mean greener here, but we are a tiny speck on the globe. Travel to the Gobi desert in China, or the Sahara, or even the Australian outback and you will see for yourself expansion of the deserts. The glaciers that feed the major rivers and ag irrigation around the world are melting at ever increasing rates. Even here, in western Canada, take a helicopter ride or light plane flight over BC and Alberta boreal forests and you will see mile after mile of dead trees because winters are no longer cold enough to kill the pine beetles.
If you have proof that man is having no effect on the climate, present it rather than just calling people - including scientiests and even oil company executives -who have come to the conclusion that man does impact the environment liars.
