Yes, and when the earth cools(primarily due to Orbital mechanics and sun output, and throw in a little plate tectonics, it happens fast, within a decade. So before you can blink an eye the north half of the US will be under 600 feet of ice.

I am doing my part, got an SUV, Big Boat, Twin engine airplane, and two gas guzzling cars, motor cycle and a two ATV’s and burn all my trash in the wood stove.

Lets get that 800 billion barrels of oil in the tar sands in the Rockies.

It’s going be tough getting rid of a billion + Chinese and a billion Indians, not to mention all the Europeans, and Africans. They all exhale CO2 and expel Methane. I think we should start with climatologists and work our way up out of the gutter.

Oh my heavens. The earth has gone through warming/cooling cycles before - it will again, regardless of what man does.

I'd be happy just trying to put a dent into cooling off the earth by eliminating Daylight Saving Time.
Daylight Saving Wastes Energy, Study Says

>>>“Is not water vapor also a greenhouse gas? <<<<

Water vapor is the single most significant greenhouse gas dwarfing the warming effect of CO2. And we do not have the capacity to measure or the data needed to model earths water vapor patterns yet.

I got this from watching "The Great Global Warming Swindle" DVD.

wait until these phony morons start campaigning to rid the world of cows

Especially the sacred ones in India.

I often wonder what public school these climatologist graduated from.

Can anyone tell me which industry was responsible for the end of the Ice age or was it the use of fossil fuels in SUVs. Inquiring minds want to know.

Actually, along wit hthe butt cork, they may shoot you as well, since the idiots call carbon dioxide pollution....you may have to hold your breath if they come a knockin’....

Without carbon dioxide trees and plants are not going to grow, so that they can give off oxygen....

We’re SCREWED!

Might as well relax and enjoy it......

But really, those “Scientists” who are saying this should all volunteer to be the first to be exterminated, to set an example for the rest of us to follow.

So wich one of ‘em wants to be the first......

This action would not work. Once all the humans and animals were killed, the earth would go into a deep freeze due to the lack of green house gasses.
