Global warming

[RedStratocas]

Solar Flares, Tilt of the earth, there's so many things to it.

I also watched a program yesterday which showed the water levels in 1700's and they were about 2 meters HIGHER than they are today, there were no factorys then. It also said that water levels can rise because of continental plates pushing up, oviously weight in water will push up water levels.

Ok, so show me the proof that THATS what it is. Because last time you showed me the artical about the tilt of the earth, it said at the very bottom that it doesnt take away the fact that we're releasing global warming-causing pollutants into the atmosphere.

How am I ment to show proof of a program?

Explains Plate movement, also their is a Plume under Iceland near the pole which pushes the crust upwards.

But how does that explain the ice caps melting? We already know the oceans are rising because of the melting ice caps, so whats causing that?

Solar Flares?, the earths tilt?

Also this isn't the first time they've melted a bit.

No, but its the first time they've melted so rapidly.

The real problem is, people arnt getting the real facts, and the goverment are. We dont have the technolgy, not in a way we can realsticly use at least.
Solar power - createing a solar panel creates so much damage to the envirment, you have to use it over a century before it had any posative effects.
Wind farms - kill off flocks of rair birds and in reality tend to only produce around 30% of the minute amount of power there supposed to be. They also cost one hell of alot, and again materals used to make them, result in more damage than good for at least the first 10 to 20 years.

To add to the bit in bold, half the time they don't last that long and need to be repaired or have parts replaced, so more materials and money have to be put into them.

Hydroelectrics would be pointless, only place in UK I can think of is Torkshire, but the rivers are only power during floods in Autumn. We don't have powerful enough waves to generate as much either "/ So Nuclear is, perhaps, the only sufficient option, but the waste is bad enough. Solar Panels are a waste of money.

And what UnderTaker is saying is correct, The British Isles are on a plate which raises in one area, and lowers in another. At the moment, Scotland is getting higher and England is sinking. It will change in about 50-100 years.

I hate it when people say that, CLIMATE CHANGES WON'T BE THE SAME SPEED AS EACHOTHER.

Only reason I support Nuclear Power is n ot because of the Global Warming by humans rubbish, it's because it's cheap and reliable wheras Oil and Gas aren't as russia controls it and if they cut us off we're buggered.

People are so thick in the head, all you have to do is simply not waste electricity , so just closing is as you leave the room, closing the tap when your not using it , some people leave it open when brushing their teeth etc, when going on short journeys taking public transport, things like that...

[@xP]

There is Defintley enough evidence to proove that global warming is here and climate change. Personally i think that the governments are not going enough ( Not just our Govenment but Other countries aswell )

We need to find more technology on how to fuel vehicles ect, instead of using fossil fuels.

Talking of fossil Fules, and the constant burning of them, we only have approx a 50 year supply left, so we need to find a new way on how to fules technology or we will Have a problem.

Back on topic Governments are not trying Enough to tackle this and trying not trying Enough to get more technology.

when going on short journeys taking public transport, things like that...

I Agree with you, there was a article in the manchester evening news, were they are chargin people to drive into the city center. This may incourage People yo use public transport, and may help global warming. Also they want trams to be made, to incourage public transport again to save fossil fules ect.
