From May 30th, 2013
A recent meta-analysis of 90 studies on religious private schools, traditional public schools, and charter schools shows that students perform best academically and behaviorally when they attend religious private schools.

Please keep your religious criticisms out of the Science Forum. The Science Forum is to criticize Science. Take your religious criticisms to the Spirituality Forum so that it can be discussed properly.

A more immediately relevant measure of likely warming has also come down: "transient climate response" (TCR)—the actual temperature change expected from a doubling of carbon dioxide about 70 years from now, without the delayed effects that come in the next century. The new report will say that this change is "likely" to be 1 to 2.5 degrees Celsius and "extremely unlikely" to be greater than 3 degrees. This again is lower than when last estimated in 2007 ("very likely" warming of 1 to 3 degrees Celsius, based on models, or 1 to 3.5 degrees, based on observational studies).
Most experts believe that warming of less than 2 degrees Celsius from preindustrial levels will result in no net economic and ecological damage.

That is a lie. We are ALREADY seeing economic and ecological damage from CURRENT warming.

As NewsBusters reported here, here, and here, there are huge dollars to be made from global warming alarmism. However, conceivably no one is better positioned to financially benefit from this scam than Dr. Global Warming himself, former Vice President Al Gore, a fact that the media will surely not share with Americans any time soon

We can be sure about this because if you just Google the actual records from the met office directly yourself and see what they REALLY say and see what the graphs REALLY show, they CLEARLY completely contradict what this graph shows:

“This year is on course to be the ninth warmest on record, according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). “
-and if you look at THAT graph, it is visually OBVIOUS that the temperature has been rising in recent years. Not only that, but, if you look at the labeling on that graph, you can see it indicates the data has come from several sources INCLUDING the met office and their data fits in with the other sources and they ALL show the same rise in temperature!
Sorry! your link, and its graph, tells a bold faced LIE!
So, DO worry, don't be happy and wrong like RJHinds.

Global warming and cooling are cyclic events that have happened throughout the last 4000 years of earth's history. So our worry will not change that.

warming with natural causes or man-made causes?

change natural cycles or man-made global warming? -The two don't equate. If “our worry” leads to effective action to stop CO2 emissions then it CAN put a stop to man-made global warming before it goes too far. Nobody here is claiming that we can stop “Global warming and cooling” cyclic events which have natural causes.
Originally posted by humyI don't believe it is possible to stop all our carbon dioxide emission. I can't see how carbon dioxide is such a big problem. Maybe we should just get rid of all technology and eliminate big city dwelling. That would probably work. Is that what you want?
