The earth is getting warmer. There are many theories as to the cause.
Wow- we either have someone who is really bad at spelling and punctuation or someone who has the lamest sense of humor ever. Or I guess it could be a 12 year old trying sarcasm.
America’s schoolchildren are being indoctrinated to believe that the industrial world is actually causing the earth’s atmosphere to get warmer — despite the fact that there is not a shred of scientific evidence to support that notion.
Is the earth warming? Maybe. Maybe not. The long-term trends are hard to measure — even the most doctrinaire proponents of the theory will acknowledge that. Not too long ago, about 30 years or so, some pop scientists were predicting the earth was on the verge of a new ice age.
But, more importantly, most scientists not compromised by the desire for government grants to study global warming or some political motivation will tell you there is little if anything man could do to heat up the earth’s atmosphere. The earth is just too big. Man’s presence is just too small.
Global warming is not real. It is make-believe. It’s fantasy. It’s, pardon the expression, hot air. It is not science. It is politics.
So if thier is a documentary its true. Are you a moron thier is no real and I mean real scentific proof of global warming. Look at the facts not at what you want to believer. How many morons said last year would be a horrific hurrican year becuase of global waarming and we had none. If you read something it does not mean its true. Although some of you morons beleive it. Remember PT Barnum said it thiers a sucker born every minute. Do you think this movie starwho rips us off for 11.00 dollar movies really knows wht the fuc- he’s talking about. This is just a political issue that stupid people beleive. watch the ral weather channel; specials on global warming and get the facts.
“It’s a cover for bigger and badder truths.”
What “bigger and badder truths”?
Is there a documentary about these “truths”?
Leonardo DiCaprio- barf! The global warming crisis is a lie. It’s a cover for bigger and badder truths.
