Is Earth near its 'tipping points' from global warming?

Earth is spinning toward many points of no return from the damage of global warming, after which disease, desolation and famine are inevitable, say scientists involved in an international report due Friday on ...

I DO NOT FEEL THAT THIS WILL CONTINOUE TO BE A PROBLEM.
#1 THE OIL COMPANIES HAVE ALREADY FIXED A BIG PART OF THE PROBLEM. WE ARE NOW GETTING MORE FUEL EFFICENT VEHICLES AND WE ARE STARTING TO DO MORE TO REDUCE FUELS WITH NEW ENERGY BECAUSE OF THIER SELF SEVING GOD ATTITUDE.
#2 WE HAVE PEOPLE OUT IN THE WORLD WHERE THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CHILD BIRTH RESTRAINT AND ARE TEACHING THEM TO NOT BRING CHILDREN INTO THE WORLD THAT THEY CAN NOT TAKE CARE OF PROPER. THAT IS GOING TO BE A BIGGER HELP AS TIME GOES ON

So you shout a lot, are semi-literate and are allowed access to a PC. Perhaps a PC licensing scheme should be introduced.

What does global warming have to do with the pole shifts that occur from time to time. I believe that is caused by the wobble in the Earth's rotation, could be wrong on that. However I would believe in supernatural aliens with high level magical technology causing the pole shifts before I would accept that global warming is doing it.

It would be great if people read the USA Today article. The concept of the earth tilting on its axis due to global warming is somewhat funny. The reference in the article is about the earth reaching its "tipping point"! Not referring to its axis!!

I think your right, education is the answer!!!!

If we could get Al Gore inside a school for awhile instead of just showing his cheap sci-fi movie in them, Maybe some of the first graders could teach him a thing or two.

OOOPS! Better watch what I say, he may be watching, after all he did invent this thing called the internet. NOT!!!!!!!!

Lets get facts straight the Old Tipper didnt invent internet but created the internet.

And, Mary his wife has a better record in charitiable dept, work with many organization ... she should be running instead

What has old Tipper Done nothing during his vice presidency when Pres clinton was office, nadah! that would help masses of humanity. I dont see tipper will be our next leader he does care about foriegn policy issue, so many other issues... Instead he spew about vague and nonconclusive evidence about global Warming, just lining pockets of bureacrats, corporations ... The main concern and issues are Biological/chemicals in our Air/water/food/land and lets not forget nuclear waste and foriegn Policy, Social Security ... even grade school can teach him a good leason.

A Good Education is important and a fundamental course in moral, ethics and, educating our kids about world illwills is very important if we are to find future quality leader. But DOE and teacher are not doing anything about it? Any soultions?

The leaders, Institutions... today I dont believe in them all they do is line ther pockets and dont have public at heart!
"NO INCUMBENTS IN '08"
That might teach them to change and even revamp the system. It time we put our foot down! But masses are either naive, lazy bunch of zombies voting same old bad leaders... Anyway it sure aint easy to find the solution to many variable involved! What do you think? Any, Solutions?

We NEED Quality Leaders! Investigate before voting else come to haunt you and future generation ( Get Real fact not through 3rd part mumble jumble)

That's the latest explanation. Changes in solar output would affect the Martian surface quite quickly due to the thin atmosphere. Note that the dynamics of the Martian climate are different than that of earths.

But with solar output in a current minimal phase, it obviously can't be blamed on solar fluctuations. This is one reason why scientists have been a little stumped until recently.

Al should tell us the difference between inventing and creating. I never knew there was much of a difference really. When he invented penicillin, and created electricity, did he patent them?

Gerry,
solar output is in a minima on the 11 year cycle, but not the long term one.

So your a sarcastic a-hole, have nothing of value to say and are in need of a toothbrush. Perhaps a little "dental hygiene" training should be introduced. Oh, then you could show a friend and maybe they would show another friend and so on. Then possibly it would catch on with the entire country!
