For heavy carbon - emitting companies, global warming policies are typically a threat to their operations, while greener rivals often view such policies as a way to further insulate themselves from the competition.

Interestingly, some scientists argue that without the cooling effect of major volcanic eruptions such as El Chichn and Mount Pinatubo, global warming effects caused by human activities would have been far more substantial.

It's not clear how far north such thawing might extend if global average temperatures continue to warm until they match those from long ago.

But even with such policies in place — not only in the U.S. but across the globe — climate change is a foregone conclusion; global average temperatures have already risen by at least 1.1 degrees Fahrenheit (0.6 degree C) and further warming of at least 0.7 degree F (0.4 degree C) is virtually certain, according to the IPCC.

Global warming, on the other hand, is far less of an immediate threat, many of its effects can not be reversed no matter what we do, the cost of attempting such a reversal could destroy the economies of emerging nations and make their development impossible — and it is a slow moving threat, that governments can plan to deal with over time.

We need to not be alarmist about the potential of this alarm, but realize that it is something to be alarmed about if we let this «little» global warming thing go too far... on top of the other reasonably alarming things that are already going on, such as hitting thermal limits for crops, etc..

Likewise headlines such as ««U.S. Scientist Sees New Ice Age Coming,» «Washington Post», July 9, 1971 (the scientist in question being a colleague of Dr. Hansen) or Holdren in 1971 predicting an ice age (http://www.zombietime.com/zomblog/?p=873), (although, to be fair, in the same book he simultaneously predicted global warming), or books from 1977 quoting the CIA: «The studies conclude that the world is entering a difficult period during which major climate change (further cooling) is likely to occur.»

Clearly, however, far more than a super majority of climate scientists consider global warming to be potentially a very serious threat; and among those who disagree, few (1.16 %) would consider such an outcome to be unrealistic.

Heartland's position on climate change is controversial only in the mainstream media (which has decided to treat global warming the way liberal environmental groups tell them to, as a matter of settled science) and in the view of far - left organizations such as «Forecast the Facts.»

If you wonder why the anthropogenic climate change theory («global warming») is losing credibility among the general population, you need not look any further than articles and statements such as your recent paper.

Since CET is about.01 % the area of the Earth, with a far higher level of technology during 1600 - 1800 than over 95 % of the rest of Earth's surface, it should not be surprising that such a tiny region so dense with technology would see global warming in the 17th century.

A global median of 54 % say that rich countries such as the U.S., Japan and Germany should do more than developing countries to address global warming, because they have produced most of the world's greenhouse gas emissions so far.

«Climate science» as it is used by warmists implies adherence to a set of beliefs: (1) Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations will warm the Earth's surface and atmosphere; (2) Human production of CO2 is producing significant increases in CO2 concentration; (3) The rate of rise of temperature in the 20th and 21st centuries is unprecedented compared to the rates of change of temperature in the previous two millennia and this can only be due to rising greenhouse gas concentrations; (4) The climate of the 19th century was ideal and may be taken as a standard to compare against any current climate; (5) global climate models, while still not perfect, are good enough to indicate that continued use of fossil fuels at projected rates in the 21st century will cause the CO2 concentration to rise to a high level by 2100 (possibly 700 to 900 ppm); (6) The global average temperature under this condition will rise more than 3 °C from the late 19th century ideal; (7) The negative impact on humanity of such a rise will be enormous; (8) The only alternative to such a disaster is to immediately and sharply reduce CO2 emissions (reducing emissions in 2050 by 80 % compared to today's rate) and continue further reductions after 2050; (9) Even with such draconian CO2 reductions, the CO2 concentration is likely to reach at least 450 to 500 ppm by 2100 resulting in significant damage to humanity; (10) Such reductions in CO2 emissions are technically feasible and economically affordable while providing adequate energy to a growing world population that is increasingly industrializsuch a rise will be enormous; (8) The only alternative to such a disaster is to immediately and sharply reduce CO2 emissions (reducing emissions in 2050 by 80 % compared to today's rate) and continue further reductions after 2050; (9) Even with such draconian CO2 reductions, the CO2 concentration is likely to reach at least 450 to 500 ppm by 2100 resulting in significant damage to humanity; (10) Such reductions in CO2 emissions are technically feasible and economically affordable while providing adequate energy to a growing world population that is increasingly industrializsuch a disaster is to immediately and sharply reduce CO2 emissions (reducing emissions in 2050 by 80 % compared to today's rate) and continue further reductions after 2050; (9) Even with such draconian CO2 reductions, the CO2 concentration is likely to reach at least 450 to 500 ppm by 2100 resulting in significant damage to humanity; (10) Such reductions in CO2 emissions are technically feasible and economically affordable while providing adequate energy to a growing world population that is increasingly industrializsuch draconian CO2 reductions, the CO2 concentration is likely to reach at least 450 to 500 ppm by 2100 resulting in significant damage to humanity; (10) Such reductions in CO2 emissions are technically feasible and economically affordable while providing adequate energy to a growing world population that is increasingly industrializSuch reductions in CO2 emissions are technically feasible and economically affordable while providing adequate energy to a growing world population that is increasingly industrializing.

Global Warming floods and droughts crops, increases insect and fungal growth, increases the spread of said non-indigenous vermin, alters the range of crops to where geology and infrastructure (such as irrigation and farms) is not favourable (north of the Southern Manitoba bread - basket is boreal forest too acidic for crops and north even further is only accessible by winter roads)...... these problems are potentially solvable, but certainly as soon as Chinese Himalayan meltwater dries up, or as soon as a Monsoon season fails because of Global Warming, the next decade of cost savings by following the Republican / Conservative geoengineering «plan»... such preventable events in the midst of an economic golden age will be looked on by future generations as evil.
