Americans are cooling to the idea of global warming, according to a Pew Research Poll. What do you think?

Al Gore's way of saying the Sky is falling! Think about this, there is only so much water on earth. Add up all the ice, fresh and salt water. The human body is made up of 98% water. The more humans the less ice and water on earth. If we get rid of all the democrats in America that believe in this hocus pocus global warming crap that should replace all the melted ice caps. Problem solved.

As we near the end of our eleventh year of cooler temperatures; and as the leftists become more and more shrill about the fact that we must pass climate change legislation RIGHT NOW that will further expand the power of government and impoverish the United States, it becomes obvious to anyone who looks at the facts that this whole thing is a myth concocted by those who need an excuse to further their Marxist ideals.

if there is Global Warming and Al Gore really believes this why dosen't he debate the people that are begging to debate him

Global warming occurs. Global cooling occurs. Man does not cause it. Man can not stop it. Very simple.

I have thought it to be a hoax since the ice age "scare" in the 1970's. It is just another effort to frighten people into giving up more of their liberty and money.

NASA reports that Mars' (and I think Neptune’s) temperature increased by about 2°F during roughly the same time period as the hysteria by the envior-kooks.

I wonder who is driving a SUV up there.

To now pass CAP and Trade and THEREBY destroy MILLIONS of US jobs (per Clemson Univerity Study) is unconscionable.

This is just another leftist scam to achieve their desired end of wealth redistribution from the producers to the looters.

There is no doubt that the climate changes every year, as it has done for the entire history of the earth. There is no credible evidence that man is even remotely responsible, and lots of evidence that the sun is the cause, yet the anti-capitalists have succeeded in convincing a naive public that the world will end unless we return our economy to the 19th century. An honest public debate by the mainstream media would help educate the public, but that's not likely to happen! Hold onto your wallets!

The global warming scare has been show to be completely fabricated by manpulating data, "forgetting" about historical events such as the Medievel Warming Period (when the earth got warmer, before SUV's), and outright lies. In the 70's we were fed the "overpopulation" lie. In the 80's we were fed the "global cooling" lie. Think about this, for example: 40 years ago, before DDT was banned, there were an estimated 40,000 to 50,000 worldwide deaths from malaria per year. Then some bleeding heart liberal do-gooders, aided by intellectually dishonest "scientists" and further abetted by politicians looking to make a name for themselves, got DDT banned becasue of alleged harm to bird reproduction. After DDT was banned, annual worldwide malaria deaths climbed to over 1,000,000 per year. Now, literally ten's of millions of people have died from malaria. Oh, and did you know, the alleged harm to bird reproduction has been proven to be wrong, that DDT was NOT in fact leading to the localized problems that were then sensationalized. Today, "global warming" is the new junk science. It's all a hoax.

When the so-called experts do not agree, and most of the world's scientist don't, it is time to recognize that this "dog has no bite nor fight", and time to leave it alone.

But no, this is not possible because it has become a religion not unlike that other false, phoney, and fraud of a religion known as 'Evolution'.

My question for WBT's Morning News is where is your in depth coverage of this issue? What experts have you have on to discuss and debate global climate change and its provable causes. There are many experts on both sides of the issue, but there have been no appearances of any experts on WBT that I can recall. Now the Obama administration is trying to tie our economy to Europe's through some United Nations initiative on global warming...certainly this issue along with healthcare is top of mind with we the listeners...problem is we don't get any discussion before 9:00am of this science of this issue on WBT.

Did you see all that icy white global warming falling in Nebraska yesterday?

Global warming theory is a hoax as they were with Al Gore and Barack Obama's Peace Prizes!

Some other polls of Americans:

22 percent believe President Bush knew about the 9/11 attacks in advance.
30 percent believe Saddam had weapons of mass destruction.
23 percent believe they've been in the presence of a ghost.
18 percent believe the sun revolves around the Earth.

What does that tell you?

I.M.Dem - It tells me you will follow the Dems over any clift that shows up.
An original thought and a class of cold water would probably kill you.

A man came forward and said he and some others had been hired by "AL GORE" to prove man is causing global warming. Well, that is not how they saw it and they were fired. Al Gore had to hire more people that felt the global warming was man made so he could have his report. It is a cycle that earth goes through and has nothing to do with man. But, if you are determined to blame it on man, blame it on legislatures who have made laws that are contrary to how we are to treat Mother Earth.
But if you have to look to find scientists to agree with you, and pay for two studies, something is wrong Al Gore.

It is all about the money!
Rick you are spot on
Same as the weather, it has been changing with trends up and down on this planet for thousands of years and the pontifs profess to know what it will be next week or month? Heat, Cold, Drought, oh my!

Al Gore is laughing all the way to the bank, where he has stashed about $100 million that he has made on this scam. He is a jerk. Wake up people!

The climate is changing. It changes everyday and always has and always will. Man does not cause it, man cannot prevent it and man cannot predict it.
To think the earths climate is going to stay constant is as crazy as thinking man can cause and/or prevent the changes.
Who knows, maybe a warmer climate is for the good? Who says the climate we have now is the "perfect" climate. Maybe warmer is better?

Here's some news everyone should know. The leading scientist in charge of the initial report on global warming has indicated in a European scientific journal that his team is expecting an additional 30 years of global cooling, followed by a period of global warming. They cannot indicate either the amount of cooling or warming, because none of the climate models can keep up with the trends year over year, much less 10 years from now. We are destroying our air with pollutants, killing our children and reducing our quality of life. Regardless of global temperatures, something needs to be done, but such drastic changes must be done slowly to limit economic impact and to allow science time to create the low pollution/no pollution means of generating energy. Without cheap reusable energy you can knee cap and trade the population all day long, and all you will end up with is excessive prices, no one working, and no one working on a solution. Meanwhile China and India will be pumping out more pollution per day than we do as a country in a weeks time. We need to make things cleaner, but not at the sake of the American way of life.

Knee cap and trade will be pushed hard.. it's the democrats method of paying for all this change. It's how Obama was planning on balancing the budget. That bill is worth trillions in taxes to the government, they don't care who loses jobs to pass it. Not to mention the net effect on global temperature from this bill, as estimated by CONGRESS, is a decrease in global warming by a whopping .5 degrees C over 50 years. That number is also assuming China and India start regulating to the same degree. Without which our effort makes no difference.

the idiot drugster koolaid drinking birthers are at it again today on this post. your comments each day continues to give us our daily laugh each day. keep it up because your condoning rape senator and party needs you.

Can someone tell me when the rain is going to start today and end tomorrow? Can't do it. However, people know what the earth's temp is going to be 10 years from now? Really!

Old Man, what it tells me is that polls are irrelevant. Polls reflect what people believe. They do not reflect the truth. Do you believe the sun revolves around the Earth?

Holly, a hoax is something that is not true. You may not like it, but President Obama did really get the Nobel Prize for Peace. That's a fact and not subject to your belief.

Freedom Fighter, you need to listen to WFAE for in-depth coverage. WBT is the wrong place to look for intelligent debate and thoughtful discussions of any topic.

Tom Calello, are you saying evolution is a fraud? Really? You're kidding, right?

Jack, that is called "weather". We are talking about "climate".

I.M.Dem--how about this poll--100% of the people who read your liberal rantings think you are an IDIOT.

zepica, I can't follow your argument. Please explain.

Kevin, Gore would only be providing them a forum and give them credibility. Why would anyone do that?

I noticed again that IM Dem seems to ignore facts presented against his argument.. which in this case seems to be to insult everyone on the poll today.

Global warming is a farce. CO2 is exhaled by every living and breathing animal on the planet. Trees, plants, and some algae take in CO2 and make O2. BTW how does an increased amount of CO2 warm the earth? CO2 is heavier than nitrogen and O2... so it's not hanging around high in the atmosphere absorbing heat from the sun... MAYBE the sun is producing more energy so that the Earth has to absorb more heat, but that would mean the main cause is not us and completely out of our control so that can't be it...

Fred, the climate does not change every day. You are confusing "climate" and "weather".

Dan S., I did not make any arguments.

David,
I took that poll and you are right. IMD, evolution per say is not fraudulent but to believe that all of life originated from one cell is a bit nuts. Evolving to adapt to changes. Like most of your followers, Democrats don't need to believe in God and Creation because they don't need him. They themselves are their own creator and solely control the destiny of everyone. You refuse to believe there is a superior being to yourselves and all answers and behavior are from within and controlled by you.

IM Dem,
Exactly my point. And you never do.

Hype hype hype all to get us to go communist / socialist. No better way to destroy western capialism than by destroying their capital investments in industry and international taxes. Al Gore will make Billions and Billions on his carbon offset program. Obama will have an enormous treasure chest from Cap n Trade, and we all lose. We pay more for everything from food to taxes, we lose jobs and economic health. And the absolute irony is that the worlds worst polluters will grow out of control as they are not buying into this crap, and world pollution will go up, not down from these policies. World climate changes. It always has. I don't feel an once of guilt for being born a human in western society in the 20th century. Sorry, but don't come to me looking for an apology consisting of giving up our country's sovereigntry and wealth to perpetuate the biggest fraud of history.

Dan S., that was not your point. Your copping out because you were busted.

You really only read the first line of peoples posts don't you.....
"which in this case seems to be to insult everyone on the poll today." Typically if someone says your argument is to just insult everyone else posting, that usually means you have no argument and that person, in this case me, was calling you out on it. But hey.. whatever you want to think.

Exactly right, Dan. GW is a FARCE!!! Furthermore, I am SSOOOOO prowd of my fellow (Real) Americans who saw GW as it is: a scam that, through the smoke and mirrors of "protecting mother earth," was designed to be the driving force in intitiating socialist principles. Principles such as the government creating carbon credits, thus controlling which businesses succede and fail. Fail, i.e. coal, oil industry. Industries that helped give this nation its wealth. I could go on but SOME people only read the first sentences.

Will,
Now lets not jump on that bandwagon just yet. We are releasing highly toxic chemicals into the environment that contribute to acid rain and breathing issues. CO2 is not the cause of these things. We do need to make laws to start controlling this pollution. I just think slow and steady will win the race on this though. We need to be careful not to make multi-trillion dollar mistakes like the knee cap and trade bill. Focus on R&D grants for renewable low/no pollution energy sources. Reward companies for "going green". Slowly implement fines and fees for heavy polluters. Quit hiding behind a "global warming" scare that no one can possibly prove and focus on the things you can point out. Increased asthma in children, increased lung cancer in non smokers, more eye disease, dying trees, acid rain... this stuff is quantifiable and measurable. Again CO2 is not the cause, it's the other stuff that's killing us. I'm still shocked and awed that anyone would try to push through such huge, middle income tax heavy bills during a recession. Not just 1 but 2! Please people vote these folks out. Lets get some new faces in there. Less government spending, less government involvement.

Oh, don't get me wrong Dan, I do NOT believe that polution is "ok." But Cap and Trade is an example of what I was talking about above. And it is a direct result of "GW." Also china and the other nations that are "developing," are more of a source of pollution than the US. For instance, 30% of the pollution in CA, comes from Asia; mainly china.

I.M.Dem, it is very easy to understand. What part do you need explained to you about this being a wealth redistribution scam?

Zepica,
The knee cap and trade isn't a distribution scheme, it's a government scheme to pay back the national debt. This is Obama's big balancing plan. Without it, he will achieve nothing other than adding to our debt.

Temperatures have been fluctuating on this planet since the beginning of time, even before man appeared.

Dan, no, it's a world wide wealth redistribution scheme. From rich to poor, from industrial to developing. It's way beyond a plan to repay the national debt. That would be better than what it really is.

It's "from each according to their mean, to each according to their needs" on a global level.

What, no KATHY today ??? Wow ! Must be her weekend to further study ol' Karl's "Manifesto".

Zep,
You are getting the knee cap and trade and the UN global carbon credit reimbursement BS scheme confused. They're slightly different.

Dan, I'm talking about the global warming scam. Not Cap & Trade. This poll was about global warming. The global warming scam is a means to world wide wealth redistribution. You started talking about cap & trade. My original post never mentioned cap & trade.
