Global warming story hits critical mass (We're all gonna die!!)
Summit Daily News (Colorado) ^ | March 13, 2007 | Bob Berwyn

KEYSTONE — Global warming is the hottest story of our time, and it will get even bigger as the full implications of melting ice caps and rising sea levels percolate through the media pipeline and into general public awareness, a panel of journalists said last weekend during the American Bar Association's environmental law conference.

The discussion was focused on how the media has covered the story and whether or not public perception of global warming has changed in recent months and years. Among the questions the panelists tried to answer is why it has taken so long for the story to reach critical mass.

Most of the panelists credited Al Gore's documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth," with helping to generate attention.

Thanks for your corrections. I knew there was something I missed.

I will blame my Nyquil dosage and a few errant sneezes and coughs for this discrepancy. LOL

you could fit the entire population of the world into TX and each person would have a square that is 33 ft 10.5 inches on a side.

Also consider the effects of skyscraper technology, building above ground and below, double decker highways with robot cars forming compressed virtual trains. Technology changes everything. The cliche "buy land, they aren't making any more" isn't really true, we're building more land all the time.

Wow, Singapore only has 1635.9 sq ft per person now. A cruise ship only uses 37 square feet of ocean per person, no square feet of land at all.

I love the graph but it's not absolutely obvious at first glance what it means.

The temperature rises or falls, and then the CO2 level rises or falls - some four hundred years later!

Liberals are concerned the public isn't buying all the doom mongering and scare talk.

The video link below has real scientists not Green Goron Enviralist Druids pretending to be scientists. They shred Goron‘s Gorebull Warming bs:

Thats is an odd graph. everyone that i have seen shown a up slope in those years. why is this one different?

I doubt it's odd at all. While I haven't plotted it out, I have looked up the NWS temperature records for my city, (Pittsburgh) actual measurements, which officially go back to 1871. Without even plotting it's obvious from looking at the tabular data that it would follow a similar declining best fit curve as that chart does with all of the hottest years occurring before 1950 and the coldest years by far occurring in the 1970s.

The rising slope you see constantly from the Global Warming Swindlers is a fictitious number based on an "average" global temperature. A new paper published shows how that number is statistically meaningless from a scientific standpoint and really tells us nothing about trends.

And why didn't I notice your post before this? It could be a conspiracy! (Or not.)

Here is where I found it.

The graph for New York City is pretty steeply up during the same period. Maybe the Global Warming hasn't made it up the river to Albany yet.

I like how there "will be" both massive flooding and water shortages. Sounds like a system of well thought trenches could solve both problems.
