Originally posted by RWLI don’t doubt that the seal level are rising and the average temps are rising, which causes the sea level to rise. This is pretty obvious to most people. I think the biggest debate on global warming, from those of us that don’t buy into it, is that it became a campaign that pushed people to do things to make billions of dollars. Things that are pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but pushed to play on the guilt of humans. These same scientist have proven that the Earth has gone through several ice ages so far and has had times of great volcanic activity, which may have something to do with entering an ice age. This data is over thousands if not hundred of thousands of years we are told. I just don’t put a lot into the data collected for the short period of time humans have been here, much less the years having the technology to collect this data to buy into it fully. I look at things in a simple way, such as, we have had very little volcanic activity for a very long time (compared to other periods). Without all of the ash being spewed into the air, I think it makes sense that we are getting warmer. They say they are seeing a rise in volcanic activity and if in the future we do have several major eruptions, then I would suspect that we will begin getting colder again.
I think it is just that simple, but what do I know, I am not a scientist!
On a side note, I did read where meteorologist were predicting this very cold arctic blast we had yesterday with a quick warm up for a short while and then a very cold pattern forming from mid January thru February. They said places in the South that do not normally see snow and ice will see it in this time period. They are predicting the coldest winter in decades for us.
This is why I have
