So now climate change is an elaborate network of conspirators, causing all of these effects we see now?
If that's the case, then climate change would indeed be man made.
the knowledge of the behaviors that influence and effect the climate provides power to those who are inclined to or persuaded to use that power to manipulate policies, cultures and social awareness or in this case social ignorance. If I know when I do x it produces y and the result of y produces fear and dependence and control (socially, culturally and politically) as well as revenue then you can be sure as **** that our government will capitalize on it.So now climate change is an elaborate network of conspirators, causing all of these effects we see now?

It's funny how I so often see the smartest minds so busy using their big brains that they can't recognize their own nose in front of their face. I find it ironic how they can be so blind to simple things. And because it's simple it doesn't even register.
It just seems to me that in this age of information and around the clock media coverage that it would be pretty hard to do things that people wouldn't notice. The thing that you posted earlier would have been much easier to accomplish in the Vietnam War era. Today, not so much.
To me the fact that carbon (and methane) emissions have been exponentially increased over time by human activity is pretty simple. I suppose conspiracy theories at their core are pretty simple as well: blame some shadow government for all of the ills of the world, and that explains it all. Plus, it's more entertaining! Win win! I enjoy fantasy and science fiction as much as the next guy, but I know where to draw the line between those entertainment genres and reality.
The same tactics that you just described are used by the right to prey on the same ignorance that you are describing. Just look at a site like Breitbart to see what I'm talking about. Did you ever think maybe these conspiracy theories are the real drivers of fear?
It's quite tiring to hear about how ignorant I am because I chose to become more educated.
Oh ALOT of people notice alright...but then the CIA created "conspiracy" slogan gets quickly thrown out by millions of DoED brainwashed minions and people turn the other way and you will never heard this side of the story on CiaNN.
Carbon can benefit the planet, its a building block of life.
IMO, here's the real "conspiracy": Between 2003 and 2010, more than $7 billion dollars was spent by conservative billionaires such as the Heritage Foundation, the Heartland Institute and the Competitive Enterprise Institute.
These people have huge interests in keeping the petroleum infrastructure as is, despite overwhelming evidence that we need to address dependence on fossil fuels. Ever heard of the internal memo that Exxon issued back in 1995? The one that recognized that burning fossil fuels was causing climate change and that the science was "well established and cannot be denied"? It's very similar to the tobacco industry trying to persuade people that cigarettes were healthy back in the day. Not to mention the whole leaded gasoline thing.
The corporate shill S. Fred Singer is a prime example of a "scientist" who sold his soul to spread misinformation with bunk science. I'm sure Singer makes far more than a government funded climatology professor at a university. The real money is from the petroleum industry, not the federal government.
Of course, here is where we get into conspiracy theorists telling other people that they are guilty of spreading conspiracy theories simply to discredit the "honest scientists".

This is a good read, worth your time if you can spare it.
Carbon dioxide is an important component of life, but to an extent. Like all things, issues arise when these things become in abundance of what can be utilized for other means. And this is what we are seeing the effect of now.
In an era where vegetation is constantly depleted to make room for more humans, and during colder months where respiration and not photosynthesis dominate vegetation consumption of atmospheric CO2, CO2 consumption decreases and has to end up somewhere, which is within the atmosphere. The southern hemisphere is majority sea mass and not vegetation life and so this is even more pronounced in the southern hemisphere.
I live in NZ where the 'hole' in the ozone puts us at extreme risk for sunburn, and I can assure you this is absolutely not a conspiracy (Invalid Link Removed)
back to the topic at hand; the amount of heat trapped in the troposphere determines the heat of the earth, and the amount of heat trapped depends on the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the troposphere. The greater the concentrations, as we are seeing, the greater the heat trapped, and the more problems that arise. This was first noted in the early 1900's when some guy predicted we would have issues if these concentrations increased; and what do you know, he was right.
Yes carbon is important, but I suggest reading up on why it is also a danger to the planet when CO2 emissions rise :thumbsup:
Ive read stuff like that as well as other scientific explanations that say something different, its endless, lol.
Now, for HAARP, governments experiments with the atmosphere among other things...thats what I wanna know. This is stuff most scientists dont have access too.

Of course, but it makes sense. Co2 emissions rise as we use it for so many things and remove so many trees. It doesn't just 'disappear', it needs to be recycled for other means, and that simply cannot be balanced naturally like it has been for the past millennia.

It is unlikely our use of CO2 will decrease over time, but rather we need to increase the tools required to consume it: Invalid Link Removed
Our oceans are also beocming more acidic due to increased CO2: Invalid Link Removed

FTR: I emailed a lecturer for the papers provided, and he told me to ask for papers showing that rising CO2 emissions is not a threat (not website links from conspiracy theorists I might add). I will be happy to add his commentary on what you provide, if you are able to provide that evidence.
There are papers contradicting all of this, but thats for those CIA labled tin foil hat people, not you.

I wonder how much of the atmospheric testing of nuclear weapons by a handful of countries heavily from the 40's to 60's, and continuing all the way up into 1980 (China being the last to stop) had on that hole being over your country? Did you hear much about this at your home?
I havent looked deep into this but if I have time (I need to focus on work and home schooling right now) Id be researching this right now.
This is a good point. I do wonder how much nuclear weapons have had the atmosphere. However, i think it would be pretty hard to prove/disprove this theory.I wonder how much of the atmospheric testing of nuclear weapons by a handful of countries heavily from the 40's to 60's, and continuing all the way up into 1980 (China being the last to stop) had on that hole being over your country?

I'm not entirely sure, but we definitely have it hard here in terms of sunburns, even on extremely overcast days.
Invalid Link RemovedJust to be clear on my stance guys, my stance is we dont know for sure what the f' is going on and far more significant research is needed. There are politics and money into play on both sides of the debate. What I can say for sure is if the people are sheep these politicians/corporations will wholeheartedly take advantage of this as a power grab. Solutions such as cap and trade, and leaked documents of manipulated data and public deception have unveiled there is no interest in doing anything about this other than fill their pockets and expand their control. This doesnt go for every politician and businessman, Im not a total pessimist but what Ive seen from the top has been terrible.
White water rafting, bbq, and watching bsu win a football game.What's everyone up to for the Labor Day weekend in here? I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing.

Going to a family friend's yearly party to drink, eat good food, and shoot guns. Maybe a little too republican-like for you Gutter...there will be no martinis, vegan food, or kumbaya singing there![]()
I hate martinis, I hardly even drink, and when I do it's usually just stout

I'm pretty ignorant of the science on climate change, so I don't truly have much to add.
With that said, I would like to know if there is any definitive evidence that our Co2 emissions are actually causing climate change?
I've seen a lot of evidence of correlation, but haven't seen much (read:any) evidence of actual causation.
Totally agree with everything you said. However, as ive already pointed out, hybrid and electric cars are worse for the environment then standard gas or even diesel. This is due to the strip mining used to get the meterials needed for the batteries, that releases more "green house gasses" and pollutants the any modern day car. Also people forget to account for the power that is created to charge the batteries.Whether -or not climate change is man made -or really happening, it doesn't matter. It should be in everyone's interest to reduce pollution -and to protect the environment. Of course politicians will use the "climate change" to push for new taxes they pull out of their azzes -and yes, the industry will fill their pockets by selling you expensive electric-cars.
At the end, less pollution is good for health and mankind's future

Causation is hard to prove because it happens over a period of time. But what we do know is that a build up of gases in parts of the atmosphere trap in heat, and contribute to our ever-changing climate. If the atmosphere did not exist, or was to fail at it's job, the earth would stay considerably colder than what it does, even under direct sunlight.
Obviously you don't have to read the link spam, but if it is something you are interested in, the article links might give a brief summary that you prefer: Invalid Link Removed
The difficult thing is is that it is damn near impossible to prove direct causation with so many other factors potentially at play. Its hard (maybe even impossible at this point) to create a "climate" in a lab and then have co2 emissions be the variable that is manipulated - that is really the only way to PROVE direct causation.
I'll try to give some of them a look this weekend.
However, I have seen before that scientists were able to show that the Earth regularly goes through periods of cooling and heating throughout history.
I'm just wondering if there is any proof that the "climate change" we are experiencing now is any different than the climate change that has been occurring all throughout history.

It does seem to, but the big question is if this is out of the ordinary or not. Pass it off as not and do nothing, you're in for a shock if it is a real thing and continues continue to rise. Id rather exercise caution, as the alternative is potentially catastrophic.
That's not an unreasonable position at all.
It seems a lot of people believe that anyone who doesn't feel the same way is somehow unintelligent. Not just with climate change, of course.
I don't know enough about the science to have an educated opinion, but it doesn't sound like there is anything conclusive.
Are you serious?Watch the movie "Time Machine"
If you're at all curious about climate change, it has Guy Pearce in it. Your eyes will be opened

the Earth can basically take care of itself no matter what man does to it.
You really, truly believe this?
