Then and Now.....for the warmers

"The massive ice sheets that blanket Greenland and Antarctica are shrinking: According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, summer melt on the Greenland ice increased by 30 percent from 1979 to 2006. Though the situation in Antarctica is less clear, scientists are also seeing loss of mass there, particularly in the fragile West Antarctic Ice Sheet."

"Gravity data collected from space using NASA's Grace satellite show that Antarctica has been losing more than a hundred cubic kilometers (24 cubic miles) of ice each year since 2002. The latest data reveal that Antarctica is losing ice at an accelerating rate, too..."

"Warming is expected to cause more precipitation on Greenland and Antarctica, adding snow. Previously, many scientists suggested that this would offset increasing melting. However, recent studies show that the ice sheets on both Greenland and in Antarctica are melting faster than the snow is replacing the mass."

Average temperatures in the Arctic region are rising twice as fast as they are elsewhere in the world. Arctic ice is getting thinner, melting and rupturing. For example, the largest single block of ice in the Arctic, the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf, had been around for 3,000 years before it started cracking in 2000. Within two years it had split all the way through and is now breaking into pieces.

The polar ice cap as a whole is shrinking. Images from NASA satellites show that the area of permanent ice cover is contracting at a rate of 9 percent each decade. If this trend continues, summers in the Arctic could become ice-free by the end of the century.

As the pack ice that is the bedrock of their existence melts because of global warming, polar bears are facing unprecedented environmental stress that will cause their numbers to plummet, according to a report by a panel of the world's leading experts on the species.

So hey wingnuts, who you gonna believe science or Faux news corporate propaganda? oops forgot, you dont believe in science.
 
There is tuns of evidnce supporting the idea behind Climate Change, I am not saying its conclusive but there is tuns of it..

Now Creationism... There is no evidence of such, and the conservatives want it taught in Science clases!

Causes of global warming

Climatologists (scientists who study climate) have analyzed the global warming that has occurred since the late 1800's. A majority of climatologists have concluded that human activities are responsible for most of the warming. Human activities contribute to global warming by enhancing Earth's natural greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect warms Earth's surface through a complex process involving sunlight, gases, and particles in the atmosphere. Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are known as greenhouse gases.

The main human activities that contribute to global warming are the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) and the clearing of land. Most of the burning occurs in automobiles, in factories, and in electric power plants that provide energy for houses and office buildings. The burning of fossil fuels creates carbon dioxide, whose chemical formula is CO2. CO2 is a greenhouse gas that slows the escape of heat into space..."

If you look at your chart, every time there were major volcano eruptions the temps went up. Volcanos pump CO2 into the atmosphere and your chart proves that it causes global warming. Humans pump CO2 into the atmosphere and there's proof earth is warming faster than normal, what makes you think human caused CO2 doesn't do the same thing as volcano CO2?

I understand that your corporate masters want you to believe that their pollution doesn't harm the earth's atmosphere. Think of the money they would lose if they had to clean their CO2. It's all about the $. That's what you really believe in whether you realize it or not.

who said pollution does not cause harm?

and $$...yeah, just look at al gore raking it in due to gullible suckers like you
