feedbaxlow, did you look at the move that was listed earlier. I'm confused, the one that is supposedly paid for by Exxon? (where's the evidence for that?)
I think the global warming evidence is very easy for any intelligent layman to understand.
*According the the antarctic icecore samples, there is a correlation between CO2 levels and temperature. CO2 levels raise after teperatures raise, and lower after temperature lowers. Temperature affects CO2 levels, not the other way around.
*The globe has been adjusting temperate forever. We have 1000 years of good weather records, which clearly show greater fluctuations than we are seeing now. Before 100 years ago, man-made CO2 was not an issue, so why the fluxuation. It turns out that there is a very nice correlation between solar activity and temperature.
*The greatest rise in temperature during this century happened BEFORE 1950, when CO2 emissions were lower. There is no good correlation between CO2 and temperatures.
*There is no proof that the greenhouse theory is accurate. In fact, the data shows the opposite of what the theory predicts. Greenhouse gasses should warm up faster than the surface, but the opposite has been the actual case.
*CO2 forms a minute portion of greenhouse gases. Vaporized water makes up the vast portion of greenhouse gases.
*The amount of CO2 humans produce is miniscule compared to what is produced naturally by life on this planet. This point alone is enough to make the whole CO2 debate seem ridiculous!
There are more things, such as the fact that the glaciers are ALWAYS breaking up and reforming. It does make good global warming PR to show pictures of cute stranded polar bears.
It is so clear to me when actually seeing a presentation of the actual data that global warming is NOT MANMADE. And if you look at who is benefiting (governments by raising regulations and taxes), it is so clear this whole thing is just not right.
Good luck trying to tell anyone...
