Really? All you have is personal attack ... AGAIN? Believing the world is flat is not a good way to represent yourself. Wow! And straw man argument, too. Your "evidence" is nothing but rubbish. |

Just rubbish unless you post links to evidence. If you bother with a literature search, you'll find plenty of peer-reviewed papers that describe the impact of increased CO2 on a variety of crops. In general, leaf crops do better, grain crops do worse (probably because they put more energy into leaves than seeds). Unfortunately, human food security is primarily dependent on seed crops.

Since you posted assertion rather than evidence, I must conclude that you couldn't find any support for your assertion. Right off the bat I found one that refutes you: http://researchnews.osu.edu/archive/co2plant.htm "A new study suggests that rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere could be a boon for agricultural crops, as this greenhouse gas helps crop plants grow and reproduce more." Actually, there are indications that high CO2 levels reduce nutrition in crops. So things aren't so cut-and-dried as you like to claim :-) And certainly scientists can develop crop variations that are nutritious in higher co2 environments. Your views on AGW, which show extreme bias and a lack of information, completely destroy your credibility as a commentator on any science at all. Really? All you have is personal attack ... AGAIN? It is not a "personal attack" to point out that somebody believes non-scientific rubbish. Yes, it is. You know NOTHING about me so your suppositions are nothing but dishonesty and slander. You excuse your noxious behavior by pretending there can be no opposition to your belief system. That's arrogant rubbish. Your put-downs and denigrations prove that your argument is actually weak. And your dishonesty is obvious when you denigrate alternative solutions to the GW problem. |

Climate change could cause mass exodus by mid century
The notion of 'climate change' is founded on the most rickety of foundations in that short term weather modeling shades off into climate modeling never mind the daft notion that humans by doing or not doing somethings can control the planet's temperature.
Planetary climate is a subdivision of the study of planetary motions hence it doesn't begin with heat/cold or distance from the Sun but rather how temperatures respond across latitudes as the planet orbits the Sun, not just our planet but all planets. People with a facile approach to climate are caught up in accusations and counter-accusations and while it may entertain those who haven't made it to adulthood it doesn't represent a level where climate is actually being discussed. No point is making a fuss over climate when observers fail to handle the cause in temperature fluctuations daily and annually, locally and in a hemispherical way as the Earth's dual rotation influence weather throughout the year at different latitudes. |

Only interested in "empty insults," peterson? The burden is on Harnagel? Seems to me that if you think rising CO2 levels are such a big problem then you should be living in a mud hut. Then you might have a moral position from which to criticize others WRT global warming. |

He's wrong but not mentally ill. He's a science denier. Although not yet in the DSM, that actually is being increasingly recognized as a mental disorder. If you're interested, google it. The findings are pretty interesting. The disorder is related to belief in conspiracies. (Snell is a different story. You can look up the public records in Gwinnett county and learn about his legal problems and court-mandated rehab.) |

Right off the bat I found o ne that refutes you: I'm not interested in seriously engaging a science denier. First of all, I'm definitely NOT a "science denier." You are being dishonest again. Second, that's a very weak rejoinder, characteristic of one who has more belief than evidence. You're the one making the extraordinary claims. Nope. You and your Chicken Littles are the ones trying to stampede people into doing something stupid. Go read the evidence yourself; I have. Several times, and I've learned something every time I did. When the Chicken Littles scream and belittle those who disagree with them about something that's 50 to 100 years away, it's obvious their agenda is corrupt. the burden is on you. Actually, it's on neither of us because we're not making the decisions. But I have actually proposed a workable alternative that makes sense no matter whether AGW is correct or not. You and your ilk wouldn't even consider it, a clear sign that you and they are not honest about the subject. Of course, it is consistent with your illness that you'll do no such thing. Another lying ad hominem, proving that you are basically dishonest. |

Go read the evidence yourself; the burden is on you. Of course, it is consistent with your illness that you'll do no such thing. These guys are pathetic in that they have no imagination. The world could certainly do without fossil fuels. Burning them pollutes the atmosphere and water on Earth. For transportation we could go all-electric with continuous recharging for long trips via induction coils buried in roadways. Smart meters on the vehicle would collect charging fees and even tolls on interstate highways. There is enough wind and solar power available to meet the needs of the nation's electric needs some 20 times over. Add to that high tech nuclear plants and you'll have more than enough energy without burning one hydrocarbon molecule. Other countries are beginning to move in that direction, meanwhile we lose technical advantage and future dominance in the energy field. We have wars in the Middle east because we exchange our money for oil, which they convert to weapons. I would not send one stinking dime to any Sheik or Mullah which they use to fund their crazy ideology, foment wars, and rape their own people. For too long they've sat fat dumb and happy atop a huge underground source of black liquid that ends up in the atmosphere while we send our treasure over there to fund their lifestyle and their murderous ideology. If we do a Manhattan style all-out program to convert our energy needs to renewables, it would create tons of jobs and get us off our collective heinies and really accomplish something. |
