375 top scientists warn of ‘real, serious, immediate’ climate threat
Yesterday, 375 of the world’s top scientists, including 30 Nobel Prize winners, published an open letter regarding climate change. In the letter, the scientists report that the evidence is clear: humans are causing climate change. We are now observing climate change and its affect across the globe. The seas are rising, the oceans are warming, the lower atmosphere is warming, the land is warming, ice is melting, rainfall patterns are changing and the ocean is becoming more acidic.
These facts are incontrovertible. No reputable scientist disputes them. It is the truth.
Despite these facts, the letter reports that the US presidential campaign has seen claims that the earth isn’t warming, or it is only a natural warming, or that climate change is a hoax. These claims are false. The claims are made by politicians or real estate developers with no scientific experience. These people who deny the reality of climate change are not scientists.
These claims aren’t new. We see them every election cycle. In fact, for the Republican Party, they are a virtual litmus test for electability. It is terribly sad that the party of Lincoln (the president who initiated the National Academy of Sciences) has been rebuked by the National Academy today. It is sad that the party of Teddy Roosevelt, who created the National Park System, is acting in a way antithetical to his legacy. It is also sad that the party of Nixon, who created the Environmental Protection Agency, now is trying to eliminate that very organization.
What is perhaps most sad is that the party of “fiscal conservatism” is leading us on a path that will result in higher economic and social costs for all of us.

PURE BS!
Sometimes you post the most wacko unscientific nonsense.
The earth is warming an insignificant amount, the north and south poles have as much ice as they always do, the amount of hurricanes/tornadoes etc is less and the world is greener with more crop production from the 0.8 degree natural increase.
What do we do,,,,,,,,,ban all coal plants, cars and those awful methane producing cows?
Yeah lets send everybody back to the stone age, except the politicians and bought off “scientists” (who can’t even call it “global warming” anymore”) who will live like kings off our hard earned money!

Denial Mr. Ice, pure b.s. denial.
So why is UVB measured over 1000% higher than EPA says?
Why has geoengineering been practiced since the 1940’s and not inlcuded in any reporting?
How can the Earth not be warming when record temps are being set day after day, month after month and year after year after year now?
because we are cooling? WTF?
read up on Arctic methane gas extinction event and open your mind that we are f$%ked and sad to say you be proved wrong, along with the other Goldie lockser’s who believe man has had no impact on Earth whatsoever and she will continue to take it and take it and take it.
