A Chilling View Of A Warming World »
Posted By Mikunited 3 months, 1 week ago in Science & TechnologyThe wall of ice that rises behind Sermilik fjord stretches for 1,500 miles (2,400km) from north to south and smothers 80% of this country.

NO WONDER they have both been insanely denying global warming for decades, they really believe they can GAIN from crashing the planet, the same way people who make over 300 million a year benefited from crashing the economy.
Sick folks.
Vote those types out of public office, don't support those kind of "churches" and don't buy products from ultra-conservative companies whose representatives come on FoxNews' Saturday morning "stock tips" program and say (with a completely straight face) that they want to INCREASE global warming because it's "good for business."-

The average temperature of earth has plateaued and dropped this century. Global warmers ignore this fact.
Mans contribution to CO2 is 3% of the total. Doing ALL of the things that global warmers want us to do will lower mans contribution to 2%. To get that 1% difference will cripple our way of life and financial interests. That 1% is insignificant to the planet.
Gore is laughing his way to the bank. He was known as a very bad manager of investing and had less than 2 million in 2000. Now he has over $100 million brought in by his carbon credit business. He thanks the tree huggers very much for every dollar they add to his wealth.

Endo,how you have worked out that mans contribution to atmospheric c02 is 3%,is beyond reason.The total weight can only be worked out to with 2% and as it's a changing target,you have picked a figure out of the air.Or more than likely a website of dubious merit.
