The sun is heating up. Look at the melting Mars polar caps. In my opinion it is the same thing.

Yes, Nick. The 2,500 scientists from 130 countries who decided that global warming was caused by Man forgot to check on the sun. What a bunch of sillybillys they are.


The link you provided points out that if all the ice on Greenland melts could raise the global sea level by 7 metres/23 feet. A little more than the 20 cm/8 inch rise in sea level said by others this century and certainly worth panicking over.

Gee Kaneda, I've looked and nowhere in the report by your claimed 2,500 scientists from 130 countries, do they mention ALL of Greenland's ice melting.

What?

This SAME GROUP is the ones saying there is only a projected 20 cm rise in sea level this century.

Well should we believe them or not?

Or, like you, should we just SELECTIVELY believe them?
