More global warming

You seem to like the Asian AMP slave girls, my ducky friend.

You found one guy. Hell, I can find one guy to defend just about any position.

What JD posted on post 12 is exactly correct as far as plants requiring certain levels of CO2. Those are facts not fiction, and growing plants has been my area of expertise for 37 years. Many greenhouses operations do inject additional quantities of CO2 into the greenhouses to maximize yeald.

Again, you're confusing weather and climate. They aren't the same thing. But please, continue on in ignorance, if that is what you choose to do.

here, let a black man school you, if you can stomach it.

Now, does anyone remember their geology classes? Anyone remember the Mesozoic Era? It spans roughly 160 million years, and is divided into three periods: the Triasic, Jurasic, and Cretaceous Periods.

Does anyone remember what is unique about this era? Yes, it was the era of the dinosaurs, when Earth supported some of the largest species in its entire history. Anyone know why dinosaurs flourished and grew to such prodigious size? Because this is also the period in Earth's history when temperatures were at their highest - no polar ice caps at all throughout most of this era. Because of the warm temperatures, Earth supported some of the most verdant growth of its history as well, providing ample fodder for massive herbivores which then provided ample prey for massive carnivores. Nifty huh?

Hence, my skepticism of some of the ridiculously dire predictions that accompany the global warming cultists. None of them can explain why two growing seasons all the way up the middle latitudes is a terrible thing. Nor can they explain why an overabundance of water caused by melting ice caps would result in massive stretches of desert conditions. Kind of like they can't explain why rising temperatures results in bitterly cold winters. Oh wait, I know, because climate does not affect the weather. Better tell the Jamaicans to bundle up for the next snow storm.

And some day the idiots who point to snow and say "look, this disproves global warming" will wake up and comprehend basic physics: more energy leads to more evaporation which, when cold air is encountered, leads to more snow. Just as the significant increase in the number of high-energy storms is a symptom of MORE atmospheric energy.

Their knuckles drag the ground. What do you expect. Like that idiot that brought a snowball into the Senate as proof that global warming is crap. Those are our leaders

That little factoid has been refuted. Most of the temperature monitoring stations around the planet (and they only cover a small part) have been overtaken by civilization. What was forest 30 years ago is now next to a parking lot or gravel road. Doing it right does not help their cause so they have not corrected.

PS, I wonder if they counted all that snow for the winter of 2014.

Nice talking points from all, but until a leader emerges that is willing to take on the rest of the world it is absolutely stupid to punish Americans while the rest of the world prospers, if it is even a problem.

And Obama's a big ole pussy and afraid of everyone so you know he isn't the one. Maybe '16

West coast will agree with climate change. they would welcome six more inches of snow. The only "shovel ready" jobs are removing the shit you spread. Originally Posted by i'va biggen
