The Bailout line begins here asked:

For several years now the Senator and many other special interest groups located the area have been opposed to setting up offshore windmill farms that will supply the whole of Nantucket Island with free electricity. I’ve heard alot of wild rumors so I will not start spreading them. What’s the deal with that. If it gets down to nobody wants any power generator in their backyard then well . . . Is this thing even close to the land where people could see it?

dumdum asked:


I really want to know because I don’t know how global warming to supposed to contribute to these shifts in the weather–thanks!
Anyone have any links? Because I know that global warming and CO2 emission is said to contribute to climate change and instability in the weather (hurricaine, blizzards, etc.). I’m just wondering about the mechanics/science behind this.

Steve C asked:


Its like these people don’t want to state the main reason for Global warming, the massive overpopulation of the Earth? How can we solve this situation if we won’t admit what the real problem is?

Hillary S asked:


Like, whats going to happen when global warming is complete? (besides warmer climate), and when will it be complete or like really bad?

And one more, what my family and I do at home to use less energy?

Emma asked:


Should we take this arguement seriously?

Ninja Rabbit 007 asked:


And the fact that global warming is based almost entirely on extremely flawed computer models that have been consistently wrong since they’ve been used.

How can you people buy this garbage?

Oh and the polar bears are increasing in numbers, and they survived when temperatures were much warmer than they have ever been in the last century.

Dana1981, Master of Science asked:


It seems like half the questions in the global warming section these days are ‘if global warming is true why is it snowing today?’.

What percentage of global warming deniers do you think don’t know the difference between weather and climate, local and global, or past and present?

Considering this figure and the small minority of people who continue to deny anthropogenic global warming (AGW), what does this tell you about the AGW denial movement?

hubertusgreen02 asked:


While the scientific community has a very high confidence that global warming is real and caused by human activities, the lay press has apparently identified no one group that has actually done the most to reduce greenhouse gases. If such a group exists, who are they? What specific steps have they taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions? Approximately how many tons of carbon dioxide (or equivalent greenhouse gases) emissions have they prevented, captured, or “sequestered?” And what objective sources can you cite to support your conclusions?

A related question is, what are the major barriers–social, political, economic, technological–holding back countries, non-governmental organizations, and other groups (and individuals) from achieving large-scale reductions and mitigations of greenhouse gases and related global warming effects?

jack_scar_action_hero asked:


The climate has changed for billions of years.
It’s been much hotter and much colder.
The temperature has gone up and down slower and faster.
There has been much more and much less CO2 in the atmosphere.
The CO2 has increased and decreased at slower and faster rates as well before humans exsisted.
Also other planets in the solar system are changing at the same rate as earth.

Why is it any different now?

How can this be attributed to humans when this has all happend even before Humans were here?

It seems that the so called environ”MENTAL” crowd should be behind global warming, if it’s going to be as bad as they say. All of the catastrophy that they claim will happen
will only result in a reduction of population, a key component in there argument to stop global warming.

And if the debate is over, do the proponents of global warming/Climate change, understand they have lost?
So the whats normal change?
The Younger Dryas even changed by 10 to 18 degrees in approximately 10 years and then changed back.
But mankind couldn’t have had any effect at the time.
And patrick is right, scientists know nothing about Climate change so how can it be said the debate is over?

The Doctor asked:


I was just curious on weather political orientation affected ones views on global warming. So if you could would you please tell me what you think and where you tend to lean political.

riqzi asked:


Its is a known fact that cars are one of the major contribution for green house gases. So recently the car manufactures come up with a new Eco friendly car, which is the hybrid cars. So my question is, if the global population adopt to hybrid car, can global warming be prevented?

barbecued_ribs asked:


I don’t give a damn if you believe in it, i just wanna know what the arguments against global warming are.

Sir Nigel asked:


There was a report on our news stations that cow farts and moose belches are a contributor to global warming. No kidding. They said that large amounts of methane are in it and it is a contributor to global warming. Is it really true?

Finally and most importantly, does this mean when I eat beans, global warming strengthens?

Live Laugh Love* asked:


How is global warming effecting global warming? Also, if you have any links to good websites, that’ll be great!

anumanohar68 asked:


what is global warming ? will it occur ? what is your opinion ?

Tedel asked:


Hi there,

Surfing the Internet, there are way too many websites talking about stopping global warming and fighting its causes and consequences. Few of them list specific campaigns to achieve this, though, so I wanted to make a list —not of organizations— of initiatives towards the reduction of pollution or stopping the global warming threat. Which do you know? Can you help me build a list?
