Global Warming Issues

Insiders - Carbon Trading Draft Report

A chunk of the Wilkins ice shelf 7 times the size of Manhattan began collapsing almost a month ago. Scientists say the melting of the shelf is another sign of global warming, as temperatures have risen dramatically in Antarctica over the last 50 years. The collapse of the shelf is also a concern because it acts as a buttress for continental ice, which will erode more quickly and lead to rising sea level without the buffer.

The House Energy and Science Committees hold a joint hearing on climate change. Vice President Al Gore testifies, this is the second part of his opening statement.

Debate on Sky News Sunrise morning programme between financial journalist Daniel Ben-Ami and Germana Kanzi of Friends of the Earth on approaches to dealing with climate change. Begins with a review of the possible impacts of increases in global temperature.

This clip from the “Five Ways to Save the World” details a cheap, simple, and low-risk way to compensate for global warming.If the reflectivity of clouds could be increased slightly, sufficient sunlight would be reflected to compensate for any future release of CO2 into the atmosphere.One method of doing this would be to eject seawater spray into the air using a fleet of automated ships. Its estimated that 50 ships costing a few million dollars each could spray enough seawater to do the job. Additional Details:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/6354759.stm

Mostly people just say I dont care and Im bitter. Other act as though Im the only person alive that does not believe the “Inconvenient Truth” of the “Planet in Peril” - Its obvious Im not the only one and here are a few others…John Stossel explains other side of global warming issue. Debates Al Gores Movie, An Inconvenient Truth and interviews a few of the non-existent scientists who disagree with Gores doom-say.Discuss it, insult & criticize me or whatever in the forums:http://forum.malagent.com/index.php?topic=8.0Plenty of other topics ranging from Global Climate Crisis to war and politics. We dont just limit it to Al Gore & John Stossel.

I invite you to take 10 minutes to reflect on climate change and Global Warming. Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earths near-surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation. Global average air temperature near the Earths surface rose 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.3 ± 0.32 °F) during the past century. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes, “most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations,” which leads to warming of the surface and lower atmosphere by increasing the greenhouse effect. Natural phenomena such as solar variation combined with volcanoes have probably had a small warming effect from pre-industrial times to 1950, but a small cooling effect since 1950. These basic conclusions have been endorsed by at least 30 scientific societies and academies of science, including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries. The American Association of Petroleum Geologists is the only scientific society that rejects these conclusions, and a few individual scientists also disagree with parts of them.Climate change refers to the variation in the Earths global climate or in regional climates over time. It describes changes in the variability or average state of the atmosphere over time scales ranging from decades to millions of years. These changes can be caused by processes internal to the Earth, external forces (e.g. variations in sunlight intensity) or, more recently, human activities.In recent usage, especially in the context of environmental policy, the term “climate change” often refers to changes in modern climate which according to the IPCC are 90-95% likely to have been in part caused by human action. Consequently the term anthropogenic climate change is frequently adopted; this phenomenon is also referred to in the mainstream media as global warming. In some cases, the term is also used with a presumption of human causation, as in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The UNFCCC uses “climate variability” for non-human caused variations.[1]For information on temperature measurements over various periods, and the data sources available, see temperature record. For attribution of climate change over the past century, see attribution of recent climate change.Other tags:Heat waves and periods of unusually warm weather Ocean warming, sea-level rise and coastal flooding Glaciers melting Arctic and Antarctic warming Spreading disease Earlier spring arrival Plant and animal range shifts and population changes Coral reef bleaching Downpours, heavy snowfalls, and flooding Droughts and fires Environmental DefenseNatural Resources Defense CouncilSierra ClubUnion of Concerned ScientistsU.S. Public Interest Research GroupWorld Resources InstituteWorld Wildlife FundHealth Agriculture and Food Supply Forests Ecosystems and Biodiversity Coastal Zones and Sea Level Rise Water Resources Energy Production and UseOther Tagsglobal climate change warming controversy perspective carbon dioxide decision matrix grid scenario row column debate
