Our temps might gradually be getting higher, but that is happening very slowly, and definitely not enough to cause something like this. It is natural to have major highs/lows every once in a while.

Most people are still skeptical and if you criticize me there is nothing I can do.

Right now, yes, there is a general warming of the global climate. However, whether or not this can be attributed solely to human activity has yet to be scientifically determined (despite what those Greenpeace idiots would like you to think).

No, really, post reliable statistics from a reputable scientific study that proves that the amount of aerosol forcing (that provided by human activity) is positive.

Mars sounds like a nice cold place, maybe AtomicDude512 should be our test inhabitant for Mars.

I can't do that, at least I can put the thought in your head.

The thought has always been in my head, and I realize and support the need for active governmental and civic involvement in enforcing and improving environmental standards. However, running around like Chicken Little accomplishes nothing. Look beyond the last five years for personal evidence of global trends.

Man I don't know where he's from, but we got a lot of damn snow here in south jersey last year. And it was cold as "bleep" too.

"global warming" is a myth started by tree hugging granola eating hippy types

if you look at the long term trends, we are headed back towards an ice age, in several thousand years

Why do you f'in cowards post something obviously stupid or inflammatory, and after you get flamed, edit out your posts?
It just shows that even you think your own words are worthless. Please stop posting, period, until you grow a brain, some balls, or both.
