There is no such thing as global warming. Chuck Norris was cold, so he turned the sun up.

The climate is changing noticeably and we are contributing to that change. That is a fact.

The first thing in question is how much are we contributing and can we stop without wrecking whole economies in the process. The second thing how are we going to survive and thrive during the next period of earth's climate.

The glaciers are disappearing threatening fresh water supplies, the permafrost is melting in the northern regions, the sea is becomeing warmer. THese are facts.

I personally think that the idea of the fear of using up natural resources will bring this cataclysim upon us drags your eyes from the LORD. Our GOD will provied for his people. When we are afraid to execute our ecological freedoms for fear of the earth exploding it totally removes GOD from the picture and gives the earth power

yeah... God is great and is our provider, but I think our God already provided for his people. Man can think through a problem or situation, and I think it is his responsibility to do so. Not doing so would essentially be overlooking God's gifts of reason and free will to act for the highest good.

If there is a situation at hand, God wants us to act. Often times, we want God to act. The middle ground will get the job done, but man must do his part and work on finding a solution and make some progress.

Global warming is happening I believe. It is not a hoax. However the cause is still very much debatable. Whether natural or man made, in part or totally. I believe it is natural or being allowed by God.

A total hoax? I'm not sure I believe that. Greatly over-exaggerated? Yes, I think so.

There will soon be a global cooling.

Global warming as per the media is a hoax.

No it is not a fact, it is a theory.

The climate has always fluctuated... this is just another fluctuation. The fluctuations take many years.

The earth is not as fragile as the media wants people to believe. Volcanos do more than we ever can do. 30 eruptions go off every year.

If we had any contributing factor it's so miniscule it is as if we don't.

It would be like a single drop of bleach in a great lake if not an ocean.

There was a mini-ice age around the turn of the century early 1900's... this is just a mini-warming... and there will be a cooling.

I think it's fair to say that most "global warming" theories that include anthropgenic causes are not provable. That being said, most of the competing "global warming" theories (not to mention other climate-change theories) are not provable either. Both have their weak and strong points of evidence. And Al Gore....... I'm sure his movie is way over the top.

The fact still remains that humans are responsible for excessive harmful emissions into the atmosphere (go to any major city and get a deep breath of the smog). So global warming or not, we still have a problem that needs fixing. As luck would have it, it's very related to the causes purported to be bring about global warming. So it seems we could kill two birds with one stone here eh?

The rapid climate change is NOT a hoax.
