No. Until then it's just a very strong possibility. We do not, after all, have 100% solid evidence of almost anything in science that cannot be argued against by those stubborn enough.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

Can you provide 100% UNTAMPERED evidence that you are not a biological construct created by aliens (including past memory implants and constructed evidence to support your infiltration of our society), and not a real human?

Until then... it's just a rumour ;)

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

However Global Warming is not a product of poor science reporting while "x causes cancer" pretty much is. They run those stories because it's an excuse to dismiss and sneer at scientists which is popular for some reason. I guess it's seen as unfair that some people have superior knowledge in one area and that instead all opinions, regardless of education or experience on the topic, should be equal.

The other one to quote some random scientist on matters of Global Warming or Vaccination and pretend the scientific community is more divided than it is.

It was in so far as we were told that all our household appliances: Microwave, VCR, Heating Thermostat etc could all cease working.

Of course they didn't.

Thew Y2K issue was a "concern" to "some" computer systems, but absolutely not on the scale as it was reported.

There was no danger of planes falling out of the sky etc.

Global Warming, or climate change as they like to call it nowadays is not a myth. However, I would argue that humans have little influence on it.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

thats just plain silly

This whole planet is plain silly.. 2012? get real Y2K... Epic fail! Judgement day seems to be every year and fails ?

SARS, bird flu and swine flu..

The worlds governing bodies will do just about anything and for what?

Why bring Global warming up now when its apparently been happening for years? They seem to bring it up when their paychecks got smaller no?

Yet another Brilliant con brought forth by the trustworthy scientists

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

It works on the same logic though. You need to provide evidence if you're going to make an assertion like that about global warming and not as Chris alludes to, hiding your head in the sand when asked for it.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

Very rarely do scientists find evidence that is 100% solid.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

But theres a substantial difference between Al Gore's mouth and aliens..

This will always be the case During any crisis.. 1/2 will choose to believe and the other choose to laugh it up like anything else

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

Actually, they've been talking about environment problems (although they hadn't come up with the snazzy buzz phrase "Global Warming") since at least the early 80s.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

Global warming is just an excuse for governments to scare the locals, to raise taxes, and to introduce taxes. imho.
money will not rescue a planet that doesn't need rescuing.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

:rolleyes:

They brought it up because it was noticed and they get funding because how else is it going to be fixed? You might as well say all scientific findings are a conspiracy by those evil scientists in order to gain money. Incidentally scientists were going on about Global Warming for years before governments and businesses took notice.

Honestly the last line of that post is moronic.

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

Hottest year on record. some say it was 1998. and some say it should be this year. and then some say it was 1934. :erm:

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

But they are trustworty right, Told us Bird Flu was a pandemic killer and sars would spread all across the land, Swine flu was the next big deal... For what so we would spend money on crap we didnt need!?

anyone noticed that already this global warming crap is dying down..

used to be shoved in our faces everyday and now you get the odd advert


Every so often a 'problem arises' like the ones mentioned above, and its the people who refuse to buy that crap that defeat the problem. We refuse to listen to this Diabolical Nonsense anymore. We have been fed crap for years on end and we have toppled it by simply refusing, Global warming is no different... It has come.. it will go.. we shall laugh again

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

:clap::clap::clap:

Re: Global warming 'past the point of no return'
 

As has been stated before, it is the media's interpretation of scientific findings that causes the problem (especially in the Bird Flu and Swine Flu issues) - I would recommend you read the badscience.net website on the slanted and misreporting on this sort of thing.
