Hey guys, long time no see :)
I wrote an article debunking the theory that recent climate change is due to humans, and I'd like to get some feedback! It will take you about 10 mins to read and is here;

Hmmm... Interesting!

Very nicely said.
thanks :)
It was very informative and well-worded.
And welcome back, by the way. I was just wondering what had happened to you the other day, and now here you are!
Thanks trance!
I was at uni all winter and forgot to come by here because the bookmark was on my other computer!
How could you forget us?? 
haha
I dunno, just got quite busy with all the partying and work lol
Combine them both, become a party organiser.
:) I think i'd rather write controversial articles hehe
It's not controversial man, it's the truth!
Well, it is controversial, but it shouldn't be.
It really shouldn't be. I do have fun though winding people up and then smashing them to bits because I actually know what I'm talking about.

UNI? As in the University of Northern Iowa?
I think Uni is just an abbreviation for University.
no no, uni as in university. i go to imperial college london.
Excellent points. Well stated.
Oh ... 
thank you udoboy :)
nice article, though i do like it that the US government is spending money on climate research. if we know enough about the climate terraforming might be possible.
what fraction of that money do you think is relevant to the year 2400 terraforming?
no clue. I don't think it's possible for me to calculate, too many factors. But if you want to start terraforming you gotta start somewhere and finding out how climate works is a pretty important step.
id bet you that out of the roughly half a trillion dollars worldwide that has gone into climate research in the last 15 years, about $1 will be useful to the people in the year 2400 with terraforming.
dude, i have no idea how you came up with the number of $1
you have my attention. please explain
You have my attention too, not that it's worth much.
well it's the equivalent of asking what fraction of money spent on classical mechanics in the year 1600 is useful for our understanding of quantum mechanics today.
then you have to consider the fact that the majority of funding to climate research today is being wasted because it is only being given to create more material to support an erroneous theory.
so the number was pulled out of your ass?
As well as a buffet and a small jar of paté made out of nasal hair and yeast.
yes, it came from my ass. but I did think about the method of extraction.
to support the claim of global warming, data must be gathered. to test the validity of a model that predicts climate change the same data will need to fit the predicted results of the model. So is the data that's being gathered costing us $1?
how is the data going to be helpful 400 years in the future when we are terraforming a planet?
it'll be helpful with finding out how climate works which will help with terraforming 
we have neither the computing power, nor the instrumentation for that to be useful right now. It's like paying a bunch of 17th century mathematicians billions of dollars to do 1 billion calculations when a computer can do it now in one second at some infinitesimal fraction of the cost.
Here's a scientist who thinks (states) Al is wrong:
Non-Global Warming Link
Interesting article.... I'd like to see what happens to ocean temperatures in the next 5 years then.
why is that link sending me to a wiki page? I want to read it...
ITS GLOBAL WARMING SEASON AGAIN!!!!
Try the link now -- the BBCode automatically inserts "http://". I had left it in so when you clicked on it it prepended the http:// and everything got meshugennah, to use a technical term.
Nice article. Anything that says Al Gore is a fucking stupid cunt is awesome.
How old is he anyways? He looks pretty young. To confess, he's very good looking to my standard.
I may have seen an F word or 2 in that article but I'm as sure as can be that there was no 'c' word anywhere.
nice wording, especially when you said about how full of shit they are lol
Are you saying that Stephen Hawking, the man who holds Newton's chair at Cambridge is wrong?

He did not say a single intelligent or insightful thing in that video, it's all old hack.
Just like the time he said that we need to populate other planets to secure our species' future. No. Shit. Sherlock.
I didn't even finish watching the movie
neither did I. I got to the part about nanotechnology and bioengineering and I started to snore.
I have always believed that the climate goes in like a huge circle over many 100 years. I mean the ice age happened when humans had only just started settlements, so how could we have made the ice age.
I know my description is a bit naff, but what I'm basically saying is I think that climate change works like a much slower convection cycle but with global temperatures over many hundreds and thousands of years, so it would start with a big overheat (which I think could have been about dinosaur times would also explain why mammals survived) then it would follow with an ice age, then a Big melt. I think the cycles just starting again.
i don't deny global warming I just think it is a natural phenomenon,that we may only slightly be speeding up.
Before dinosaurs, when beasts walked the Earth it was 60% hotter than it is today.
Then came the time of dinosaurs,
then the ice age after that.
Your theory is correct Monetdell, global warming is completely natural.
I recommend 2 books that my dad has read and I haven't had the time to read: State of Fear and The Skeptical Environmentalist
