Even Doubters Want to Prepare for Global Warming

[Catawba]

What lie ? It modestly warmed for two centuries before halting 15 years ago sorry if its confusing for you :roll:

Oh, you are going back to your, the globe is not warming position to attempt to show you were not caught in a lie above. :roll:

I'm more than happy to stand by the integrity of anything I've posted. That you are incapable of comprehending the meaning of what I post is self evident and unsurprising to anyone rational reading through this thread.

Is there any possibility you could add some constructive debate to this thread you initiated or is it just another conduit for more name calling

 

[jmotivator]

Shes not here to reason but to parrot the words 'denier' and 'consensus' as many times as possible. Its why she initiates these threads in the first place because it certainly isnt to rationally debate anything

Well, granted... but then unquestioning faith tends not be firm footing for building an engaging debate

You mean the integrity where you said no one has argued that the earth is not warming, and then where it was shown you said the earth was not warming.

That's some integrity right there!

A simple 'No I cannot add constructively to a debate I initiated' would have sufficed here :roll:

He acknowledged that the earth has not warmed over the past 15 years or so, but over a longer period , it has. Not inconsistent at all. Why is that so hard for you to figure out?

 

[Bob Blaylock]

In fact, even 60 percent of climate-change doubters favored preparations, the survey found. Researchers collected opinions between March 3 and March 18 via an online questionnaire, using a nationally representative sample of 1,174 American adults, both English and Spanish speaking.


The survey asked about climate-change beliefs and support for adaptation strategies to help coastal areas cope with the rising sea levels and frequent, intense storms that a warmer world could bring. The results showed that 82 percent of Americans are in favor of preparation."

This smells like the same flavor of bull**** as your other claim, endlessly repeated in various forms, holding that up to 90% of Americans (and even 90% of gun owners) oppose the free exercise of the rights affirmed in the Second Amendment.

My good sir, or madam, are you suggesting we take the only arrow from Catawba's quiver?!

Why would he want to prepare for something he thinks stopped 15 years ago. Sorry, I don't buy it!

 

[azgreg]

Why don't you just show his post where he said it wasn't warming and end all this drivil?

 

[flogger]

Indeed. But the thermometers agree with me (as you've been shown umpteen times) so I'm in good company :lol:

Sorry, I don't buy it

What a surprise ! :lamo

I did already:

How under any stretch of the imagination can this line be interpreted as denying warming has ever occurred ? :doh

 

[azgreg]

There is a difference between the earth isn't warming and the earth stopped warming.

Do you keep a spare tire on your car? I do but haven't had a need for one for over two decades.
I would far rather have something and not need it, than need it and not have it.
Think the Boy Scout motto, "Be prepared".

 

[Fisher]

82 percent are in favor until they find out how much it would cost just to protect NYC, let alone the other billion miles of coastline in the US. I suspect "in favor of" quickly becomes "let them dumb sumb****es move" once the first price tag is put on it.

You said the earth stopped warming 15 years ago. Why would you think "adaptation makes sense," if you actually believed your own denial that the earth was warming?

What a tangled web you've wove for yourself.

After your recent verbal gymnastics in attempting to impugn my integrity you go on to talk about MY tangled web ! I guess irony for you is just a word describing something with a lot of metal in it isnt it ? :lamo

 

[Muhammed]

And many of the vast majority that now agree the globe is warming, used to think the earth wasn't warming! The 18% that still deny the earth is warming are the hardcore science deniers.

Regardless of what idiots think, the Earth has been cooling for billions of years.

 

[Catawba]

BTW, as to your denial of the earth warming since 1998:

"With the exception of 1998, the nine warmest years in the 132-year record all have occurred since 2000, with 2010 and 2005 ranking as the hottest years on record."

Hansens GISS climate modelled data (unsurprisingly) contradicts what the raw satellite and oceanic data is saying and this has been drawn to your attention (and ignored) many times now.

Right, and man never landed on the moon. Sorry, conspiracy is not my thing.

"NASA's analysis of Earth's surface temperature found that 2012 ranked as the ninth-warmest year since 1880. NASA scientists at the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) compare the average global temperature each year to the average from 1951 to 1980. This 30-year period provides a baseline from which to measure the warming Earth has experienced due to increasing atmospheric levels of heat-trapping greenhouse gases. While 2012 was the ninth-warmest year on record, all 10 of the warmest years in the GISS analysis have occurred since 1998, continuing a trend of temperatures well above the mid-20th century average. The record dates back to 1880 because that is when there were enough meteorological stations around the world to provide global temperature data."

This is just trolling now

Why bother initiating threads you dont really want to debate then indulge in this sort of twaddle instead ? :bolt
