    Yes Dave, ignore practically the full body of data compiled from the entire scientific community regarding global climate change and listen to the politicians that claim that and evolution are just “theories”. BTW your claim of .006 degree annual change is inaccurate and you really need to look at the numbers by continent, with particular focus on North America. Denying or ignoring the actual facts results in people not believing it’s real or important.

    Hi Mark, good to hear from you.

    I will write about my take on global warming soon, but to address your comments:

    1) It’s the global warming believers that ignore evidence that doesn’t support their theories, such as the fact that, even using their own numbers for the “temperature of the earth”, it hasn’t risen in 17 years. See this:

    http://articles.latimes.com/2013/sep/22/science/la-sci-climate-change-uncertainty-201309231)

    And they have tried to cover that up:

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2425775/Climate-scientists-told-cover-fact-Earths-temperature-risen-15-years.html

    Plus there was the “climate gate” scandal of a few years ago.

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2009/11/24/the_fix_is_in_99280.html

    I also strongly suspect that only studies that try to prove global warming get any funding in the first place.

    2) I know plenty of people who believe evolution but not global warming. Certainly the evidence of evolution is much more compelling than the evidence for global warming. I really don’t make the connection. And most politicians out there are pushing global warming. Only a handful admit to being skeptical.

    3) It’s the guy from Number Watch who says .006 degree/year. Me, I have no idea if the earth is warming or cooling.

    4) If it’s an atmospheric phenomenon, there is no point in focusing on any one continent more than any other.

    5) BTW, lots of scientists and meteorologists are skeptics. Channel 7’s Dr. Bill Evans is the most well known around here, but there are thousands.

    Dave, put your head in a freezer and your legs in a fire and “on average” you will be comfortable but dead. All you have to do is look at the rising sea levels, the reduction of square miles of the polar caps, and see the increase of record high and low temps to see there is a problem. If you choose to ignore real science and use your own, feel free. If you do not believe the ice caps are disappearing and the seas are rising, you choose to ignore valid scientific evidence. (You do agree with the science data that the seas are rising, right? Where is that extra water coming from?)
