Debate on Climate Shifts to Issue of Irreparable Change

By Juliet Eilperin / Washington Post

Some Experts on Global Warming Foresee 'Tipping Point' When It Is Too Late to ActThe debate has been intensifying because Earth is warming much faster than some researchers had predicted. James E. Hansen, who directs NASA's Goddard Institute of Space Studies, last week confirmed that 2005 was the warmest year on record, surpassing 1998. Earth's average temperature has risen nearly 1 degree Fahrenheit over the past 30 years, he noted, and another increase of about 4 degrees over the next century would "imply changes that constitute practically a different planet."

"It's not something you can adapt to," Hansen said in an interview. "We can't let it go on another 10 years like this. We've got to do something."

Stark warning over climate change
By Richard Black
Environment Correspondent, BBC News website

Climate report conclusions
Rising concentrations of greenhouse gases may have more serious impacts than previously believed, a major scientific report has said.

Just wondered if anyone here had any thoughts on this. Personally, its starting to scare the sh*t outta me.

What a beautiful picture though,

Michael Moore taking a dump contributes more greenhouse gases than driving a Ford Excursion for a year.

What an original post. Sorta like your global warming theory.

(sneering spin)

c'mon - you think it's a beautiful picture too, don't you?
Not that you could take your superduper Ford 'Excursion'
out there.

Oh well, if you're bored fair enough. Guess you must have talked about this loads already? Some a-hole posts a few pics up and man, you are ANGRY
Well, that's okay,
At least you ain't complacent.

Seems to me that Mother Nature is in the process of straightening the chaos of Earth out. Soon the ice floes will sail over the cities and dispose of everything. A study of the Earth shows that similar events have happened in the past and it is to some degree just the Earth cleansing and re-birthing itself. I am not exactly thrilled about it, but it is what it is. (Although in the past events of nature taking back her territory it had not been the victim of rapid acceleration of the warming trend and it was not connected to deadly man made contaminants.)

As to Hansen, he may want to get a grip and realize that it is already too late...the wheels are already churning the sun is burning and the ice is a-melting. On the bright side the powerful storms which will soon begin to form and take place everywhere will kill most people off before the ice even reaches town.

Stop living in fear Endymion...it won't help, it'll just make your final days miserable.

In that first pic, BVT looks more than just well fed, he looks stuffed.
