SNB Kansas City, MO	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Friday Jul 25 Judged: 1 1 Does this study have any basis in science or is it based on the AlGore "The sky is falling" Theory? This could, or might, or maybe, or maybe not.
Floyd Des Moines, IA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Friday Jul 25 Judged: 1 1 This reminds me of "Chicken Little and the sky is falling." Panic, panic, panic. I agree with SNB from KC, does this study have any basis in science? What other studies have been completed to draw a comparison? Studies not associated with Al Gore. What did we blame the heat and floods on in the 1950s? Get facts. Research.
DJB Overland Park, KS	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Friday Jul 25 Judged: 1 1 1 Science tells us that the end of glaciation came about due to global warming about 5-6,000 years ago--long before the "destructive" influece of human's use of carboflouroarbons and fossil fuels. Global warming appears to be the normal cycle of things. Al Gore made it a hot topic, just as PETA and vegetarians would have you not kill vermin or any other living thing! How do you justify killing living plants for food (or, heaven forbid, flower arrangements)? Political Correctness is often not the way to go, especially if it is primarily driven by emotion rather than logic!

Blue Kansas Dayton, OH	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #5 Friday Jul 25 Read the article before posting your "I will not believe it" knee jerk reactions. It's not about politics folks, it's about living conditions. Turn off you AM radios and switch on your minds.

I also have read multiple dozens of articles by scientists who show the flaws in the computer models used to 'prove' global warming. This type of scare is partially responsible for the gas price hike as well as instability of the stock market, which is based on confidence as much as on the economy itself. Those who believe in the fact that global warming is man caused rather than cyclical as tree rings, and ice cores prove.

If God wants you and I, there is probably not much you and I or Chicken little can do. He also said be prepared.

CO2 is a lagging indicator of warming not a leading indicator. If it follows warmng it can' be the cause! Water vapor is also a cause of warming and there's vastly more water in the atmosphere than CO2. Follow the money ... ever wonder why Al Gore owns a company that profits from selling carbon credits?!?!? Many facts to examine and all lead to scare tactics based on questionable science. Yes the earth may warm (or cool if you were around in the '70's) but I don't think we're the cause. Should we take care of the planet? Absolutely! But let's do it for the right reasons, not for Al Gore's wallet!

All you people do is carp, bellyaacke, gripe, and moan about the presidency, the economy, the ecology, and the weather. You democrats must be an unhappy bunch. Having marital problems?

Gary in OP Overland Park, KS	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #13 Wednesday Jul 30 Judged: 1 In the 70's many of the same people got wealthy from the coming ice age scare. It's amazing how gullible the liberal kool aid drinkers are. Unfortunately, decent folks have to pay for the lack of common sense they have.
