Will global warming again be labeled as nothing more than junk science?

If environmental scientists have deliberately manipulated data to fit their own template or ideology, should the theory of global warming again be labeled as "junk science" since it gave birth to the term back in 1985?

You mean like intelligent design? Except ID is universally considered junk science while global warming is largely backed by the scientific community. Turn Faux off and read a book.

Who planted this seed into your head? Seriously where did you get this from? A 5th grader can teach you about global warming.



This is not news, it's only news because Al Gore's name is associated with it & he's a Democrat. Global warming has been in the making for years & everyone knows it. It's real.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the world’s volcanoes, both on land and undersea, generate about 200 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually, while our automotive and industrial activities cause some 24 billion tons of CO2 emissions every year worldwide. Despite the arguments to the contrary, the facts speak for themselves: Greenhouse gas emissions from volcanoes comprise less than one percent of those generated by today’s human endeavors

Greenhouse gas emissions from volcanoes equal less than one percent of those generated by human activities.

Rush Limbaugh labeled it junk science back in 1992 when he debated Gore.



It has taken 17 years for liberals to catch up, and some of them are still stuck.

Global warming isn't "junk science"--but reality.



Something you trolls wouldn't understand.

No, the measure of any theory is how well it actually predicts things. Gregor Mendel is the founder of genetics. Strong evidence exists that he fudged data to prove his theory of inheritance, but we now know the theory was quite accurate none the less.

To you, probably. And I'm sure you doubt evolution, as well. On the other hand, the real scientists are very concerned about climate change. As I've posted to you repeatedly, but I take it, you have not read the scientific links. Oh well.



I will make one more attempt to offer logic to you.

Each Thanksgiving is getting progressively warmer. You can't even put your cider outside anymore.



It turns into vinegar.



Stick with the farmers, Buddy.

I'm just pissed that it has taken nearly 25 years for it to finally be labeled as CRAP!



And where I live, it snowed like crazy today, day after Thanksgiving, as it should have.
