so what was the cause 112 years ago... which was even hotter?

Ok, lets clear this up right now.

No one(credible) is disputing climate change. Even the so called "Anti-global warming" scientists are not disputing that the earths climate is changing.

What they are disputing is how much of a role that man has in that change.

So both sides, point out all the hot/cold/freaky days you want, that is not in dispute, and goes to show how little of the discussion you actually grasp.

if scare tactics didn't run public policy I could take an almost empty 4.5oz tube of toothpaste on an airplane, to say nothing about our little excursion into ("...in the form of a mushroom cloud") Iraq. Funny how the administration/republicans hype public hysteria when it suits their purpose.
i agree that our policy makers are "most effective" when they can scare people into reshaping their collective opinion.

with that, do you refute sen inhofe's press release?
and then: are his points relevant enough for consideration on this topic?

just to bring you up to speed w/ my opinion: i believe our climate is changing, as this would be consistent with the fact it has always been changing - it's the one constant.

what i'm not sure of is how much of it is man-made.
followed by: to what measure does that affect us in the short & long term?

what complicates matters is the consideration of various cataclysmic volcano activity, most notably the tambora volcano of 1815, which was most influential in creating the "year w/o a summer"

the sooner global warming quites being a political issue the better.
It's a corporate issue. Environmentally friendly policy is bad for big business. Big business has the policy makers in it's pocket, hence the whole thing gets politicized. The creators and supporters of the policy suck at the corporate tit.

n8, you make an awful milkmaid.

I dont think that's going to happen so long as the powers that be continue to ignore it and the citizens continue to demand it's acknowldgement and a plan to adress it. The ball's in their court.

Inhofe has been debunked so many times, that it's simply ridiculous. How you can post Inhofe as some sort of argument is plainly beyond me.
i simply asked a yes/no question, which you have not yet answered.

assuming you'll have thoroughly reviewed it before your response to this post, what do you find to be distortion, factually inaccurate, lies, cherry picking, spin, disproportionately represented, irrelevant, etc.?

I'm actually encouraged that only two dip****s have responded to this thread as global warming deniers. And N8 doesn't even count. So that's just one dip****.

Really. And he says global warming is a scam, cooked up in order to funnel money to greedy scientists. Of course, he as an author wrote that to let us know we were being scammed, not to sell books or anything...
What next? Germs from space, mini robots? It's all true I'm tellin' ya.:twitch:

For one, it looks like he's misrepresenting Schrag to some extent. I don't think Schrag shares his stance on GW, but Inhofe presents it as if Schrag agrees with him. For another, Inhofe has been in charge of his subcommittee for a while, and he is well known for stacking them with GW deniers. Third, let's all get down on climate models, nevermind the fact that some of them are very accurate, and the ones that are not accurate are coming within the range of the ones that are. All the models predict the same thing: worsening conditions. Oh, but I forgot, real science doesn't include modeling. I guess we'll also have to go and throw out the models used for interplanetary work, evolution, medicine, etc. It's simply ridiculous.
