Like the others have said it's the most widely supported scientific view and I'm pretty much a slave to the science. I will sway toward what can show to be the most reasonable assessment to date. And of course we all have our subjective views, so I enjoy hearing all sides. But, yea, so far...

I checked out your link. No where in that article does it mention any definitive mass of ice moving in one direction or another. In fact that same article reinforces my point that the ice has been melting. "According to a new NASA study, Arctic perennial sea ice has been decreasing at a rate...

I'm no expert on this, but I don't think it actually 'moved'. It's just that some ice has melted away and some ice has come about in the last 30 or so years. If anything, there's obviously more ice that has melted away - and it is more than probable that C02 emissions caused the melting of...

I would actually be convinced if you brought something to the table and didn't just use politically charged diatribe. I agree that maybe they might have made some mistakes in some areas but this doesn't, in any way, validate fraud or bad research. I really don't mind if you back up your...

I won't speak for organizations like Green Peace or PETA because they don't actually have ideals with the science in mind, but in no way does this validate some 'aggressive' agenda on IPCC's behalf, nor are they actively perpetuating fraud. Taking that stance is a bit.... umm... alarmist, I'd...

Would you like to enlighten us as to what these articles are supposed to prove?

Oooh, can I fill out your bull**** form too? -- If you're going to dismantle the AGW world, reduce billions to poverty by increasing inflation, and at the same time make trillions for a small group of traders and speculators in the oil industry by imposing tyranny and misinformation on others...

Rhetoric is fine and all, but why don't you actually bring out the goods if you want to make a point.

Please lay off lord of the rings for a few days.

I did a search and didn't find anything. Anyway, I thought this would be the perfect forum for this, as we have so many people proclaiming themselves to be right, left, inside and out. This is by no means, definitive, but try it anyway. The Political Compass - Test Here's my result...

So, I guess not, lol

I've been reading the Skeptical Inquirer lately and while I have my reservations, it's pretty good too.

So I guess that wraps this one up.

Because some parts of some cities may be hotter than their surroundings, concerns have been raised that the effects of urban sprawl might be misinterpreted as an increase in global temperature. While the "heat island" warming is an important local effect, there is no evidence that it biases...

Well that's definitely a load of hot air. But thankfully, it's already been shown that these sites do not negatively skew any temperature information that's been recorded so far.

We're back to UHI? lol Well that's nice. I'm still waiting to see this smoking gun though. All UHI has provided is a .45 Colt filled with blanks. Bu-bu-bu Detroit's station is really the problem!

Some other obvious and not so obvious things you can do: Fly less, turn down heating/air con, always turn stuff off, drive less, buy only high quality products that are built to last, try to buy just the right amount of food to avoid waste, only take showers instead of baths, etc..

Mind blown. Anyway, I thought I'd thrown another log into the fire here for you guys to pick apart: -- Killing the green wave Most people understand what an independent public inquiry is. Except climate scientists and politicians. In a public inquiry, a third party with no interest in...

Ice cores? Seriously now. First of all that doesn't disprove AGW, and, secondly, it is already counter intuitive to the cooling hypothesis. Scientists are already aware that ice cores cause natural fluctuations in climate - but despite this, they have also seen a clear indication that there...
