This gobal warming BS is all propaganda, to get us ready to ween ourselves away from oil.  The effect that humans have had on global warming is nominal.  A good volcanic eruption gives off more CO2 and poisonous gas than humans have given since the start of the industrial revolution.  The government now is just using it as another tax grab.  These scientists, who do you think they get funding from.  Bill Gates?  No the government.  At one time they said the world was flat, then they said the sun revolves around the earth, the people that disproved these theories were persecuted by the common thought at the time, just like the scientists that have debunked the global warming debate today.  Like the BS of no more fish in 50 years, what a load of crap.  I've never heard anything so stupid.  But people like to have a doomsday, and like to think we are destroying the world.  Like we are overpopulated and the earth can't sustain this many people,  BS it can sustain double the current population.  Don't get me wrong some places like Los Angeles, London, Tokyo, Mexico City, Lima, Bejing etc. need to pass clean air act in order to get localized pollution and smog under control, but that is for the citizen benifit, not the planets.  The planet will compensate for it's self, Ozone depleting emissions are a little more dangerous, but most industrialized nations have now passed strict laws about this, and in fact the holes in the ozone layer are not getting any bigger.  The weather is erratic, always has been always will be.  Just look up any record highs and lows of any date.  To be so arrogant and egotistical to think that we control nature is a stupid thought, nature controls us, and always will.  There is a reason we call her mother.\n\nSome FUN FACTS about CO2\nOf the 186 billion tons of CO2 deposited into the atmosphere yearly from all sources, only 6 billion are from man, 90 billion come from biologic activity in earths oceans, and another 90 billion from volcanos and decaying land plants.\n\ncurrent CO2 levels make up 4/100ths of 1% of gases in the atmosphere, compared to former geologic times earth is actually CO2 impoverished.\n\nCO2 is colourless, odourless, and tasteless, Plants consume CO2 and expel Oxygen, animals consume Oxygen and expel CO2.  Carbon Dioxide is a nutrient not a pollutant, and all life plants and animals alike benifit from it.  All life on earth is carbon based and CO2 is an essential ingredient.\n\nCO2 that goes into the atmosphere does not stay there it is recycled by land plants and the oceans(the retirement home for most terrestrial CO2)\n\nIf we are in a global warming crisis today??  Even the most costly and aggressive proposals for cutting CO2 emissions would have a negligable affect on global climate!!\n\nIn truth CO2 levels have been steadily increasing for the past 18000 years.  The total human contribution to the greenhouse effect has been about 0.28% (CO2 man made = 0.117% / NOX, methane other minor gases man made = 0.163%)\n\n"Scientists who want to attract attention to themselves, who want to attract great funding to themselves have to find a way to scare the public...and this you can only acheive by making things bigger and more dangerous than they really are"  Petr Chylek, professor of physic and atmospheric science.\n\n"Even if the Global warming THEORY(key word) is wrong, we will be doing the right thing, in terms of environmental and economic policy"  Tim Worth while US Senator Col.  After a short stint as UN under secretary for global affairs, he now serves as president of the UN Foundation, created by Ted Turner and his 1 Billion dollar "gift"\n\nYou people think everyone lied about Iraq, wake up people, this is the biggest lie yet!!!!!

actually, because of Global Warming, we would be in the ice age.  The increase in temperature causes a higher density of water vapor in the air, as a result the net temperature on the surface of the earth drops, and we get lots and lots of percipitation.  The Earth is making drastic attempts to shift it's self to remedy this.  Al Gore thinks we can control it because WE caused it, and so it would stand to reason that we fix it.

I totally do not think that Bush is a good president. I recommend watching the movie Loose Change. It proves that 9/11 was a conspiracy, and that Bush knew about it. He let it happen so he could get oil from Iraq. Also, he is doing this new immigration law to distract people from raising high gas prices. This is my opinion.

Global warming is the opposite of global cooling.  The Earth has gone through at least 3 episodes of cooling/warming.  Where I am sitting now was once under about 1000 feet of ice.  The Earth warmed up enough to melt all that ice -- and this was way before there were any cars or industry (or even people).  Global warming is NOT caused by people living their lives and producing things. People may have an effect on the rate, but we are not the CAUSE. BTW, the ozone layer hole, which expands and contracts, has no direct effect on global cooling/warming.

of course it is. most of these people that bash bush need to take few lessons in how this government works. if they did, they would realize that not all decisions are made by the president. and the ones that are must pass through both the house and the senate. its just so much easier to point the blame at one person thatn it is to try and fix things themselves

Well, the weather changes very quickly, however global warming has been happening for a while. It is in the past while predicting the weather is in the future. There is data that shows a warming trend on Earth. So, you can trust it, at least as fact that is IS happening. Most people agree on that. However nobody is sure whether or not this heating is natural or caused by humans.

From the very beginning of the {Bush Ad min} I have been watching the Environmental Protection Agencies & what they have to say about the Bush Administrations waste. The E.P.A. never says anything when asked how & when, & what is the Bush Admin going to do w/all of the {Fossil Fuels} that he wants to waste in no time flat. It would auctually Cost the American Tax Payer a whole lot more money to build & Pay off the Alaskan Citizens w/incentives from those {Revenues form all that Oil}At the same time the Carribue Herd in Alaska would be re-routed from their original (Ancient Paths that have been around before Mankind can fix a date on.Changeing the Carribue & the Natural habis of getiing around is to cruel of an act that will only be around for a short while. The Republican Party has been a cold & calculative bunch that see;s no end th their lack of vision for our very planet, & it's atmosphere.

I have been wondering if I would see a global warming question up here.  I thought for sure there would just be a bunch of answer blaming Bush for it.  I am glad to see it hasn't gone that way yet.\n\nThis whole global warming thing is a complete sham.  When I was in school they used to run stories on global cooling, we were all going to be under ice, because all the air pollution was going to block out the sun.  Now its global warming, just more nonsense.\n\nUnfortunately they don't teach you kids much in school nowadays.  The Earth goes through climate changes ALL THE TIME.  I know you have all heard of ice ages, probably only because of the cute little kids movie, but we have had them its really true.  It has also been really, really hot here.  We have been completely covered by ice, we have been without even ice at the poles.  The poles themselves actually flip from time to time.  One day the north pole will be the south pole, it has happened before and it will happen again.\n\nWe can't even come close to attempting to try to affect the climate.  And nothing we can do, can stop, or alter where the climate is going.  If it does in fact get warmer, we didn't do it, and we can't stop it.\n\nYou really need to understand what is behind things like this though, because it is truely unAmerican.   A large part of the world and more unfortunately a small but significant percentage of our own people, simply believe we do not deserve to be the world most powerful country.  And everything they can do, to level the playing field, they will do.  This is simply one of those devices.  There are plenty and there will be more.

That's a very good question many seem to avoid! \nBut as you know, America is supposed to be accountable for all the wrongdoings and disasters on Earth. \n\nI have broken one of my coffee cup today. No wonder. That's George W. Bush's fault!

It's full of lies. Keep in mind, this is the same person who predicted another ice age in the seventies...sorry, i really don't believe in global warming until i get some real facts. After all, how do you think the glaciers melted? The earth had to warm...and that was long before SUV's were around. just my thoughts.

Don't be fooled by these responses. One above even claims that Australia is the only one complying, well Australia is not even a member of the treaty. Bush has many constituents and among one of them is carbon-based fuel industry that is the biggest polluter sending tons of pollution to the environment. Perhaps, instead of focusing on why he doesn't participate, we should focus on why he withdrew from the previous commitment made by the Clinton administration, it is clear they saw the threat of global warming. It's failure to understand that many of our problems today will have to be solved by our children tomorrow what keeps people from focusing on the real problems. Most just worry about their "today" taking tomorrow for granted; it is an egocentric and very selfish point of view. I'd rather sacrifice a little bit of the economy for a world in which my children don't have to wear gas masks or pay 100 dollars for a glass of drinking water. They (Bush and his cronies) just think we can clean up the earth when it all becomes a mess, and in a matter of seconds reverse the damage of what has taken millions of years to become an equilibrium. It is intelligent design what has created those "unintelligent minds" that oppose world conservation.

Mission Impossible:  HONESTY AND TRUE REPRESENTATION PLEASE.  As far as issues goes, lets see if the pres. can have the balls to say YES there really is GLOBAL WARMING!!  Not necessarily do anything about it but at least acknowledge it does exist would be nice.

We had a bit of summer the other week - maybe that was it for this year! Thank Mr George W Bush and his cronies for not believing global warming is changing the environment!\n\nP.S. I'm in Manchester, UK.

There is a lot of conflicting science in this area.  I do not believe it is the fault of people, and our day to day lives.  I believe it has more to do with the natural cycles that nature goes through.  I also believe that it has more to do with what the sun is doing, than what we are doing.  I just read an article that said Mars is also experiencing global warming.  Which lends to the theory that it has to do with the sun, and the cycles that it is going through.\nI love it when I hear the reason that we are having such a bad winter is because of global warming...lol.

haha bush isn't doing anything about anything that is important.  and honestly do you even think bush knows what global warming is?  he has an intelligence of a two year old
