CO2 levels have increased the same amount everywhere in the World (Source http://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/trends/co2/contents.htm). The same increases have been recorded at the South Pole, Seychelles and Mauna Loa for instance.
New York, NY 1822-2000 recorded a rise of 5 degrees Fahrenheit in a hundred and seventy-eight years (Source United Stats Historical Climatology Network)
Albany, NY 1820-2000 has recorded a decline of half a degree in a hundred eighty years (Source United States Historical CLimatology Network).
Conclusion: While CO2 levels have raised uniformly, two cities merely a hudred and forty miles apart have experienced different heating/cooling effects. One has gotten hotter while another has gotten colder. How does this fit your theory of green house gasses? |
Well, Warchild,
I'm sitting in vancouver, there is snow everywhere. I have upwards of, oh, 10 million dollars in damage to a city/province/national park in the middle of the city. We like to call it Stanley Park. THis park has trees over 500 years old. A lot of those trees are dead to teh hurricane (border) force winds that took them out. It's fucking cold outside. It's a LOT more snowy than it should be, and to top it off, TORONTO has better weather than us.
This isn't mickey mouse shit we're talking about here. The ice caps don't merely "melt".
Shit will hit the fan.
Having an atmoshpere like venus is a really serious issue. When it starts going really really bad, weird shit happens. The ice caps melt, people whom never really see snow see snow. People who always do, don't. Winds pick up, massive storms start forming, go talk to people in florida. I'm sure htey will have plenty of colourful "everything will be ok" language for you.
this isn't "OUR THEORY". This is common fucking sense.
