just look at the poor little south sea island village in kiribati sinking into the sea, according to recent news ....
googled for it and found a PDF for an engineering report that made NO mention of global warming as the cause, just that the island was subject to ocean currents so that one side of was washed out.
coasts are variable ... currents wash at them all the time ...
and why aren't ALL the islands sinking into the sea?

it's probly cooling now ... if it's warming it hasn't warmed much .... if it warms it won't matter, weather changes, species die, people won't change that ...
So are the photos that literally show the ice caps changing because they've melted so much faked?
Why have you posted so many articles claiming the earth IS warming but we're not the cause? Now you're saying you disagree with those scientists.

Originally posted by zeeblebotHow about this. If I can link two different posts from you, one claiming the earth is not warming - and another claiming the earth IS warming but we're not the cause...
it'd help if you'd quantitate "many" and "some". maybe you're thinking of someone else.
Will you admit your position is based on partisanship rather than conviction?
He he he,, my vote goes to the myth...... natural causes that occur over centuries.
And the projected cost is way too much. However, not to worry, we'll have a huge eruption from a volcano, maybe in Italy, and the cloud will shut out the sun light for years. Then we in Wyoming can sit on our natural gas reserves, and burn coal all day long too... people will be flocking to the western Rockies to bundle up with us extreme right wingers. Also the home of your favorite republican Vice president... my good friend Dick.
Ok, all kidding aside. we need to do a much better job protecting our world, and we probably are late getting on track. getting anyone to agree on anything these days, is almost impossible.
Originally posted by USArmyParatrooperYes indeed. And it's like zeeblebot has been reduced to arguing about a tangent off a tangent off a tangent. He barndishes this article - with it's three "scientists" - only because I have teased him about citing anonymous non-scientist bloggers ad nauseam - as if it's some kind of Gotcha! on "Climategate", and yet...
Zeeblebot, busted!
...the 'Credible 3' say they don't have evidence of fraud and recommend further investigation. Well, nobody thinks that an investigation should NOT take place, and the suggestion that there's any smoking gun here about fraud is ludicrous. Indeed, the three scientists are basically telling the zeeblebots of this world to calm down and stop getting their shorts so knotted.

so "one here of this sort" and "one there of that sort" equates to "many" in USAPT language?

...the 'Credible 3' say they don' ...[text shortened]... g the zeeblebots of this world to calm down and stop getting their shorts so knotted.
and then i pointed to this thread, where i had recently quoted three credible scientists.
the ASSOCIATED PRESS headlined their article with "science not faked" based on what they chose to print of what they gleaned from interviews with the scientists. the Washington Times caught them out. that is the point of the OP. not whether "nobody thinks that an investigation should NOT take place".
