20 years ago it was called “Man-Made Global Warming”,…but even their stupid believers were still cold. Now they’ve re-branded it as “Climate Change”.

Hmm, Mike, I have to comment here. If there is an argument to be made, “there can’t be global warming because it’s cold today” is not it.
A rise in the global average temperature does not mean that it’s no longer cold anywhere on earth.
We can question climate change models because we think the data is slanted and that average temperatures aren’t really rising. Or we can say that temperatures may be rising but it’s not a man-made effect. Or that maybe temperatures are increasing and may it is man-made, but it’s silly to think that any of the proposed actions will have any effect. And so on.
There is plenty that can be discussed & debated. I’m just saying that “there can’t be global warming because it’s cold today” is not a winning argument!

Mike, if you are a True Believer, – then drive a Prius and put solar panels on your roof.
But the cover got blown on ClimateGate back in 2009 – with the publication of the hacked emails from the CRU at the University of East Anglia, and later Michael Mann’s false tree ring data and his fake hockey stick.
NOTHING we humans do here can stop solar flares or stop volcanoes from erupting.
You should know that where you used to live up here, the ground was once covered with a sheet of ice – 1 mile thick – 10 – 12,000 years ago.
Somehow that ice melted, and there where very few Chevy Tahoes spewing exhaust back then.

The real problem is that policies are being made that affect millions of people without real science behind them, Mike. Those policies have extraordinary negative long term effects on the people.

To Us Christians, this planet has been dying since Adam and Eve. Doesn’t matter what happens, Jesus our Lord is coming back and fixing the entire mess so trust in God and not Al Gore

Don’t confuse what I believe with what makes a sensible argument!
All I’m saying is that a statement that global warming can’t be true because it’s cold out is like saying that JD Martinez’ batting average can’t go up this year because he struck out today. It doesn’t even make sense.
Now, is global warming a hoax because the data was rigged, or is it not a worry because the earth is more than capable of adjusting to whatever we’re doing, etc. – sure, those are valid questions/statements.
And Mike – I’m sure you remember that I didn’t drive a Prius or have solar panels when I lived in Boston… I still don’t down here in DC 🙂

There may well be global warming but to blame mankind because we drive cars and pollute the air is to overlook the fact that Mother Nature is the culprit. She has been tinkering with the weather via the sun for a long time. I assure you no matter how hard we try we are not going to cancel out her antics. I believe we should strive to limit carbon emissions and some day end reliance on fossil fuels but until renewable energy is a viable solution press on and enjoy life as Mother Nature presents it.
