The American Denial of Global Warming

Polls show that between one-third and one-half of Americans still believe that there is “no solid” evidence of global warming, or that if warming is happening it can be attributed to natural variability. Others believe that scientists are still debating the point. Join scientist and renowned historian Naomi Oreskes as she describes her investigation into the reasons for such widespread mistrust and misunderstanding of scientific consensus and probes the history of organized campaigns …

    I suppose you can rip all the papers to shreds out of all these institutions too, I’m sure as a troll you will have something negative to say

    National Academy of Sciences
    National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
    The United States National Academy of Sciences
    NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies
    Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists
    British Royal Society
    British Meteorological Office

    MIT
    Harvard
    UCs
    etc…

    NO, I am not going to rip their papers, nor the Acadamies. They published with the best that was available at the time.

    The thing is, what has been learned even the last year is quit astounding and is requireing a re-examination of a lot of those papers. This is normal science.

  4. Nightversionn said on November 8th, 2009 at 4:20 am

    Best available, there are new studies coming out all the time and they affirm what the IPCC has reported.

    Nightversionn:
    Actually…..they don’t. Read the current issue of Science…..a paper written by Mr. Schmidt and Mr. Shindell of NOAA.

    I don’t read cherry picked studies that you harness to prove your global warming denialism, especially studies supplied to me by global warming deniers

    You always exaggerate a minor detail, or even a flat out untruth, and go on and on about it without even mentioning the big picture

    No thanks, I can find studies and articles on my own

    I have some obligations that need attending to, but I will check back in a while to address your global warming denier spam I’m sure

  7. Nightversionn said on November 8th, 2009 at 4:40 am

    If what you are saying is true, that is ONE, there are several more that have come out since then you fail to mention

  8. goog2k said on November 8th, 2009 at 4:57 am

    Sigur, that’s silly denier B.S. You’re rapidly losing all credibility.
    Most scientific organizations are talking about trying to limit warming to 2C and have grave doubts it can be done.

    Watch the highly informative lecture given by Lord Monckton on youtube.Exposing the deception and lies of the IPCC.
    The same lies that goog2k and nightversionn parrot here on a daily basis.Exposing the absurdities of these two ass clown fanatics.
    Once you have watched it you will have a greater understanding of the global warming scam.

    A political Organization that hand picked their “Experts”, distance themselves from Real Earth Sceintists like Geologists, Ecologists, and Meterologists, controlled and edited the data used and wrote the summary months before they got their “Experts” to blindly sign off on it :”lying and being deceptive” in trying to coherst money out of the US via Carbon taxes/finies and granting taxing/fining powers to the UN?

    fftt…say it isn’t so :(

  12. TheRealArchAngel said on November 8th, 2009 at 1:20 pm

    Try actaully reading the references and footnotes in the Scientific litature and even in the political based pubic release statements and recomendations instead of just thumping on them like a bible

    They don’t say what you are saying they are saying

    Nothing wrong with tighter pollution controls and tougher regulations to close down grandfathered Power plants & Cars that can’t meet EPA standards

    Problem is that the Public is sivk of AGW and using it as the reason just makes them rolleyes

  13. TheRealArchAngel said on November 8th, 2009 at 1:27 pm

    Sounds Familiar…lol

    Difference is Democrats are going to loose their house majority in 2010 cause they are trying to push “Healthcare reform” and “Cap and trade” on the People when they are protesting and telling them NO!

    Oh, and Obama is going to be a 1 term President

    Also if the Republicans are Smart they will put the 1 person the Liberals feel they need to constantly rip to Shreds even though she is no longer Governmer of Alaska(out of fear)as their 2012 Presidental Canadite…lol

  14. TheRealArchAngel said on November 8th, 2009 at 1:34 pm

    I’m no longer Fucking Insane. We broke up after I caught her dancing naked in the local store parking lot

    Nonsence? I actually read the Science books, Science Journals instead of just thump on um and claim that their is something said in there that really isn’t in there

    Make things up? I’m not that creative. Nor do I have “power ove thousands of Scientist” to make thm give lectures on Chemistry,Ecology,Geology,and Oceanagraphy as I posted in my references

  15. TheRealArchAngel said on November 8th, 2009 at 1:42 pm

    Bullshit? For someone that like to say just fucken Google it, you are going to tell me you never googled for the difference between the kind of CO2 found on Mars, on Venus, on comment and Astroids,and in the Depp Ocean have I higher c13 to c12 isotope rating compared to organic Co2 which would have a higher c12 then c13 rating?

    Progressive warming been happeniung for 100,000 years,

    AGW is “Proven”? Then why is NASA,NOOA,MIT,MIC,KEY,MOUSE,etc still wasting money trying to verify/test it?

  16. TheRealArchAngel said on November 8th, 2009 at 1:55 pm

    Lot of your “Scientist” on the IPCC are Economist, political activist, University falculty, and mathamaticians (thus the fucken “Probability)

    Oregan petition? That’s a load of politival crock, and if you are going to put labels on me I am, according to talk show radio,a “Leftist Ellitist” and you are actually one of my kook thralls…lol

    Aside for disagreeing in “AGW”‘s existance, I want Pollution control, I want Domesticated resources,I want old Coal Plants shut down..just like you

    goog2k:
    1. It had been established at least 2 years ago, that co2 iteself, will not cause even a 2.0C rise in temps from doubling.
    2. In a slab model, co2 would cause approx 1.0C of warming
    3. In reality, because of the hydro cycle, it appears that co2 would cause 0.3C of warming.

  18. Sigurdur2 said on November 8th, 2009 at 3:18 pm

    A slab model is one in which nothing changes except co2. In the world, the climate changes by the second. That is why a slab model is used. That is not how climate works as it is a chaotic system. Hence the potential 0.3C rise per century for a doubling of co2. Remember, co2 is only a fraction of all greenhouse gases.

    TRAA, after reading your comments I don’t think you real journals etc…quit pretending like you are some kind of authority on something please

  20. watercup123456 said on November 8th, 2009 at 6:30 pm

    Wow you are fucking stupid traa

    You’re still droning on about “differences” in CO2

    HELLO CO2 IS CO2 ITS ALL THE SAME AND ITS ALL AN ORGANIC MOLECULE TRY GOOGLE FUCK HEAD OMFG ROFL YOU ARE SO DUMB ITS HILARIOUS

    THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE YOU CRAZY FUCK

    C12 AND C 13 ARE NOT CO2 YOU STUPID SHIT THOSE ARE CARBON ISOTOPES WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT NOTHING YOU SAY MAKES SENSE YOU LYING CUNT OMFG YOU ARE FUCKING INSANE!

    RAPED YOU WITH FACTS BITCH

    AGW IS A PROVEN FACT YOU LIVE IN DENIAL!

  21. watercup123456 said on November 8th, 2009 at 6:32 pm

    Holy shit how can you be so fucking stupid nothing you say makes any sense you are trying to mix up carbon 12 and 13 isotopes with carbon dioxide, an organic molecule. HOLY SHIT WHAT A LYING STUPID FUCK HAHAHAHAHA

    WELL ONCE AGAIN I PROVED YOU DON’T KNOW SHIT ABOUT ANYTHING AND YOU ARE JUST SPEWING NONSENSE YOU MAKE UP OFF THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD AS YOU GO ALONG HAHAHAHAHAHA

    OH WELL GLOBAL WARMING IS A PROVEN FACT

  22. watercup123456 said on November 8th, 2009 at 6:37 pm

    Make things up! Yea like that “mineral” CO2 (when ALL CO2 is an ORGANIC molecule LOOK IT UP DUMMY)

    You’ve never read any scientific article or journal (since they ALL agree and show AGW is real and happening and more importantly HOW it is happening). YOU ARE A LIAR I PROVED THIS

    I agree you are not that creative in making things up when you say bullshit like mineral CO2 and make shit up about C12 and C13 isotopes it’s pretty fucking pathetic not even good lies just fucking nonsense!

    PWNED YOU

  23. watercup123456 said on November 8th, 2009 at 6:41 pm

    Let me tell you again, since you are WAY too stupid to realize this

    THERE IS NO FUCKING DIFFERENCE CO2 IS CO2 YOU STUPID FUCK GOOGLE IT

    YOU ARE JUST MAKING THINGS UP OMFG YOU ARE FUCKING RETARDED READ SOME BOOKS CHILD!

    Higher C13 TO C12 compared to CO2 WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU BLABBERING ABOUT HOLY SHIT YOU ARE JUST SPEWING NONSENSE JESUS FUCKING CHRIST YOU ARE STUPID

    OOPS CO2 is CO2

    Carbon isotopes WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT I ALREADY EXPLAINED THIS YOU FUCKING MORON

    PWNED YOU BITCH

  24. watercup123456 said on November 8th, 2009 at 6:45 pm

    Wrong again liar

    RAPED YOU AGAIN BITCH HAHAHAHAHA WHAT A FUCKING LOSER

    GLOBAL WARMING IS A FACT GET OVER IT DENIALIST FAG!
