Global warming stopped 16 years ago.

RE: Global warming stopped 16 years ago.
*facepalm*

that graph proves nothing Tongue

and there are so many factors to do with our global climate you cant say what is havin what effect, for instance yes we are experiencing global warming (no im not sayin its man made, but its certainly contributed to by us) but at the same time our aircraft are creating a different type of cloud made up of minute particles that doesn't dissipate and fall as rain like normal clouds, they are also more shiny and therefore reflect more sunlight, cooling the planet.

also our climate goes up and down alot, every 3 million years or so due to shifts in our solar orbit our climate will go from cold to warm (creating what are ice ages....which is simply a period of time where there is solid ice on the planets surface) then whilst the climate is shifting up and down in these big waves, the are other waves every few thousand years where the planets axis of rotation changes slightly, again causing the climate to warm and cool

so with all those things going on, the climate is just too noisey to really discern whats happening Tongue

it's true the climate has fluctuated, temperature wise, but over thousands, even millions of years which has given flora and fauna time to evolve and adapt. some succeed, some fail and become extinct. the problem we face as a species is that we have accelerated the process to centuries, even decades. once the positive feedbacks start kicking in, industrial agriculture will become impossible due to floods, drought, pestilence etc. cue massive die off and Hark! is that the not so gentle clip clop of the four horsemen of the apocalypse? Confused
they laugh at us because we're different, we laugh at them because they're all the same
