Global Warming

This is just a repeat of a forum post I made regarding the topic of climate change.

Global warming is a misnomer as we understand things today.

Global weirding is more appropriate, the temperature band is increasing on positive and negative fronts. The climate will shift stronger back and forth with heat waves and huge droughts on one end and cold waves with violent flooding on the other. We have seen many examples of this in the last year, look at Georgia right now. Look at Texas, look at the crazy flooding and rain in the north east or the drought in Seattle.

It is true the weather is subject to many factors we are just now starting to grasp such as high atmospheric influences and solar radiation. We are making huge advances and although the science is not or will ever likely be perfect it will get very close.

Is CO2 a greenhouse gas? YES! Make no mistake about that…even if we are not the sole cause of climate change we are certainly not helping.
