Not looking good for planet Earth

[gazdkw82]

Perhaps I know more than you gadzook!

Sure seems you think so

Now I have one more reason to be unhappy about Whippy sniffers .
Getting high on NO in little shiny sparklets style bottles ... (back in my day it was Evo-stick in a brown paper bag) ...
Squirty cream in a can is fun though.

Over the last 420,000 years there have been 5 (including the current one) instances of global warming.
The warmest one reached it’s peak some 320,000 years ago.

To suggest that the current period started at the begining of the industrial revolution is just untrue.
In fact it started about 20,00 years ago.

It’s been suggested that the greenhouse gases are currently 50% higher than at any other time.
However the evidence does not support such a claim.
The evidence shows that 3 out of the 4 previous incidents had higher amounts than are currently present.

The evidence from past incidences suggests that rather than causing an increase in temperature, high levels of greenhouse gases presage a decrease in temperature which culminates in an ice age.
Here is a link to a graph showing the temperature and greenhouse levels for the last 420,000 years:

Don’t worry about the Earth it’ll look after itself pretty well, we’ve got bigger things to think about and it near enough all involves stupid people who can’t see past their noses.

Give us a for instance, what's more important than the planet we live on.

Okay the rate of global warming increased at the start of the industrial revolution.

No, there was supposedly an increase in the amount of CO, CO2 and CH4.

Whoa a minute... so the earth didn't start 6,000 years ago?

.....Somebody better start talking sense...

Which are greenhouse gases?

Did you know, because I didn’t, that when you extract Helium from the air for our uses, it doesn’t get reintroduced to what it once was, molecularly.
Think twice before you buy your party balloons.
Though it is funny speaking in a high voice for 10 seconds!

That was mankind from Adam and Eve in the garden - the earth is old but created in 6 days - He rested on the 7th Job done!

Dawned on me,the other day,what kind of a sustainability policy,some of our more adventurous religions possess,if it's all ending,anyway...

I will politely enquire,the next time JW's come a knockin'...and if they come in a Prius,it will be one more bone-of-contention,for me to point out

Yes there was supposedly a great increase in the amount of greenhouse gases, but there was no corresponding great increase in temperature.

the planet will look after itself. it's constantly (albeit slowly) morphing and allowing for the gases etc.that we produce. in biblical times it was square, as per reference to the 4 corners of the earth. up until the end of the 15th Century, the Earth was flat. once that Columbus started out,the whole earth went from a flat disc to a ball shape. the continent of the americas was formed from nothing to keep the ball in balance and prevent it from reverting to a disc.
