I'm not about to tell anybody that they're dumb as a box of rocks but you know what??? I'm not going to say it. :moon:
Global warming does not mean that temps increase in a way that is even perceptible by man. 2 degrees over 100 years is not a perceptible change. So when it seems really, really hot or really, really cold it neither proves nor disproves global warming. So quit sounding like you're dumb as a box of rocks because you're not!
This is why climate change is the better term in my view. The weather is getting weird.
Btw, one simple bit of common sense for you:
If the climate change people are wrong and we make the mistake of heeding their advice? We get off foreign oil and that saves our economy (not to mention many, many lives).
If the climate change people are right and we make the mistake of not heeding their advice? Devastation and a crippled planet.
Edit: Just so you know - I'm not directing this rant at any one person, I'm directing it at everyone that gets their news from The Tabloid News Channel. They mock scientists so you'll feel smart and keep watching, that's how they make money.
