I don't believe global warming really exists either. Yeah the earth might be warming or cooling but it's natural in my opinion and would have happened regardless of what the human race is doing. The climate has gone up and down loads of times before.

I still think we should cut down our fuel consumption though and do things like recycling.

Theres more scientific evidence avaiable to support life after death, NDEs for instance, than there is of globalwarming. Yet theres far more people believe in global warming, than the paranormal..

It just goes to show how people believe what they hear in the media, than what is presented has scientific fact.

Just goes to show how powerfull the media is an what effect it has on what people think/believe..

Just to add, theres a programme tonight ( I think on BBC1 ) regarding last years floods titled 'britian under water' it should shed some light on what a big myth all this global warming realy is.

Okay, whether or not you believe in global warming you have to agree that humankind is damaging the planet.

We are emitting more greenhouse gases than there should be, unbalancing the atmosphere and destroying the ozone layer. Surely you can't say that the earth "naturally" sheds its ozone layer?

Anything can happen, I mean the earth came into existence pretty randomly too didn't it.

Yeah but several hundred millions of years pretty much the same, then humans come along and more change happens in a few hundred years than in the planet's history?

You're basing your argument on a massive coincidence rather than science?

Anything can happen

I don't have particularly strong beliefs about this subject, I've never really looked into it, but my gut instinct is that it's just the fate of the earth.

But surely using the same "anything can happen" ideology I could say "the Earth's ozone layer should be getting thicker and temperatures should be falling."

At least you admit it's your instinct, not fact.

Of course what I'm saying isn't fact, and I haven't looked up any theories that back up what I'm suggesting either.

In my opinion, even if it is fact that the human race is responsible and can make a difference by changing, I don't think the world's population would actually be able to do it. I can't see a global change happening. I would happily make the changes in my lifestyle that the government wants me to make if they think it's going to save the world, but I don't think there's anything we can do to help.

No matter what we throw away or what energy we use, it won't have any detrimental effect on what weather we experience...... Adverse weather conditions isn't nothing new,the records over time support that fact. At various times of the year and in various parts of the country/world, there has always been sever weather change... it's nothing new, and has nothing to do with what we are dumping in landfill sites.

I can't really see industry changing unfortunately.

Let the world do what it wants to do, that's what I say. As you mentioned, the individual can't really make a huge difference, so if global warming really is happening then there's nothing us lot can really do about it is there.
