Global Warming Warning!

 Coolness: 202090 | 
Where's the mass amount of snow that we should of had? I dunno! 2006 was a green Christmas?! Deary me! Why has the weather been so fucked up? I have started to notice the weather changes in the past two years. Haven't you?? Mmmmm... Green house effect.. Global warming "WARNINGS"? Perhaps! Really it is kinda of scary. WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING? Carbon dioxide and other gases warm the surface of the planet naturally by trapping solar heat in the atmosphere. This is a good thing because it keeps our planet habitable. However, by burning fossil fuels such as coal, gas and oil and clearing forests we have dramatically increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere and temperatures are rising. The vast majority of scientists agree that global warming is real, it’s already happening and that it is the result of our activities and not a natural occurrence.1 The evidence is overwhelming and undeniable. We’re already seeing changes. Glaciers are melting, plants and animals are being forced from their habitat, and the number of severe storms and droughts is increasing. The number of Category 4 and 5 hurricanes has almost doubled in the last 30 years.2 Malaria has spread to higher altitudes in places like the Colombian Andes, 7,000 feet above sea level.3 The flow of ice from glaciers in Greenland has more than doubled over the past decade.4 At least 279 species of plants and animals are already responding to global warming, moving closer to the poles.5 If the warming continues, we can expect catastrophic consequences. Deaths from global warming will double in just 25 years -- to 300,000 people a year.6 Global sea levels could rise by more than 20 feet with the loss of shelf ice in Greenland and Antarctica, devastating coastal areas worldwide.7 Heat waves will be more frequent and more intense. Droughts and wildfires will occur more often. The Arctic Ocean could be ice free in summer by 2050.8 More than a million species worldwide could be driven to extinction by 2050.9 
(before and after) The term "global warming" is a specific case of the more general term "climate change" (which can also refer to "global cooling," such as occurs during ice ages). In principle, "global warming" is neutral as to the causes, but in common usage, "global warming" generally implies a human influence. However, the UNFCCC uses "climate change" for human-caused change, and "climate variability" for other changes.[10] Some organizations use the term "anthropogenic climate change" for human-induced changes. *Alaska - Increasing rate of retreat. A study of 67 glaciers shows that between the mid-1950s and mid-1990s the glaciers thinned by an average of about 1.6 feet (0.5 m) per year. Repeat measurements on 28 of those glaciers show that from the mid-1990s to 2000-2001 the rate of thinning had increased to nearly 6 feet (1.8 m) per year. Alaska has experienced a rapid warming since the 1960s. Annual average temperatures have warmed up to 1.8�F (1�C) per decade over the last three decades, and winter warming has been as high as 3�F (2�C) per decade. 
*Hawaii -- Beach loss. Sea-level rise at Waimea Bay, along with coastal development, has contributed to considerable beach loss over the past 90 years. * Florida -- Worst wildfires in 50 years, 1998. Fires burned 485,000 acres (196,272 hectares) and destroyed more than 300 homes and structures. There is so much other information and signs out there but I didn't want to drag this on much more. ************************** ***************** There is no doubt we can solve this problem. In fact, we have a moral obligation to do so. Small changes to your daily routine can add up to big differences in helping to stop global warming. The time to come together to solve this problem is now – TAKE ACTION

 Coolness: 339640 | I dunno if the current weather is cause of us.. it's probably a fluke..
global warming cannot make for a 30 degree difference in weather in a single year.. :| normal weather for this time of year is -20c to -30c but instead it's 0c to 10c global warming causes increases of a few degrees over decades.. |

 Coolness: 102740 | the answer is cut all Carbon Dioxide emissions by 90% by 2030.
That is 90% of not today but of what we will use in 2030. Pretty rough. |

HA!!! dude... thats soo not the case.... thats mearly what the corporations want you to believe... if you did some research you might find evidence that states that we will be lucky if we still have a food supply by 2020.
