Effects of Global Warming - [Closes 8/4/08]

Actually it's true that the Ice Age hasn't yet ended. If i'm lacking in knowledge then challenge me to a debate because so far all you have done is throw pathetic insults!

THE ice age? The one that ended 11,000 years ago? Yeah, that one is coming to an end.
The reason I've thrown insults is because there's no point arguing with you, it would be like arguing with an arrogrant child who has no evidence or, facts to back up his claims. If I did decide to argue with you, there'd be no resolution anyway and we'd go back to where we started.

It hasn't ended though and that's scientifically proven. Yeah that's right don't argue because the truth is that you get all your opinions from Green Peace & BBC News isn't it? I have read the subject a lot and have made my mind up on it and the facts FOR are peanuts against the facts proving it's not humananitys fault.

Then explain how the other warming/freezing periods occured, because i'm pretty sure the animals millions of years ago didn't have factories. The ice caps will melt yes and they have been melting for thousands of years now as the ice age is coming to an end.

Without knowing anything about the subject, I'd say it was CO2 rises caused by volcanoes. If you watched the programme "Power of the Planet" on BBC2 you'll know that the "snowball earth" (when earth was covered in snow) would've carried on forever if it weren't for volcanoes releasing CO2, creating global warming and melting the snow over Xmillion years. Whenever the balance is disturbed, things change. What's happening now seems to fit in with current theory.

Edit: As for all that about ice ages, an ice age is a period of time where there is ice on the earth naturally. We're still in one.

Again, this is why I don't want to argue. You start an argument by assuming I've gotten all my facts from Green Peace and BBC News, criticising me as if I'm some raving hippy. This shows how arrogant and narrow minded you are.

I think it it does exist but we cant do anything about it. 1000s of years ago derbyshire was a desert and if my memory is right also on the coast of great britain. we had alot of vinyards even in newcastle. I think eventually it will get back around to that and no matter what we do there will be no way to stop it. Maybe humans will be wiped out like the dinosaurs?

I think the government make a big issue about it so they have another excuse to hit us with massive taxes. to be honest i dont care if it does exist and we can stop it because i will be dead long before that :8

Nope. It shows that you can't actually argue the point by avoiding the subject everytime you post and instead arguing over whether you want to debate the subject.

I really don't think you see how arrogant you are lol. You're acting like a child. I am not scared to have a debate with you, do you not realise how pathetic that sounds? You make yourself sound like an idiot, honestly you do.

More like 'global freezing' at the moment not global warming....

Hailstorms, strong winds, rain: Yes, we're really sunbathing in that...

Derbyshire is in the centre of the UK and a fair distance from any coast's

Global warming doesn't mean everyone's going to be partying in medditeranean temperatures. When the sea heats up, it heightens the likliness of storms and hurricanes being created.
