And the planet, yes, is getting warmer. The only problem is I don’t really know if we can or MUST stop that. I mean: if the global warming isn’t a “human gas heat trap” thing, but part of a natural cicle… which will be our reaction to that?

As far as I know, the CO responsability in the warming is not yet truly demonstrated, neither the “cicle” theory. So… what to do? Where to make complaints? IMO the commercial abusive strategies of many companies in the world are far more criticable than the envirormental aspect. City contamination is really destructive, with or without warming thing. The way our civilization LIVES is a problem… more than the little issues of CFC and such…

I live closer to the antartica than most people around here (Chile) and many of the “antartic tours” begin in the south of my country(San Rafael, Todos los Santos, Ice FIelds, etc), giving a great bite of food to a lot of people that lives in the cold. I think could be great if more tourist come to the south and lower the prices… so I can go to see pengüins on my own country too… XD

They have completely different weather patterns (Albany is dominated by cold, Canadian air and storms coming off the Great Lakes, while NYC is dominated by the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic), of course they’re gonna be different!

Look, Global Warming doesn’t mean every single place on the globe is going to get warmer (even George Bush understands that). What it does mean is that, _ON_AVERAGE_, the global temp is increasing.

I don’t know about Albany specifically, but if you take the average temps of all the places that have decreased and compare it to the average temp of all the places that’ve gotten hotter, I’ll bet you anything that the decrease in colder places is less than the increase in the hotter places… On average, the world _IS_ getting warmer. If you don’t believe it, fine, go bury your head in the sand and don’t bother us anymore… The rest of us wanna read the comic now! ;-)

The earth has been in a ice age for the past 500 years, and is now getting out of it. If you look at data, the only places that are getting warmer are the ones that have the most asphalt and the most people. Small towns have actually gotten warmer. It’s a fact that New York, New York has warmed, but look at Albany, New Yort, It has gotten cooler. They’re so close together yet havve opposite trends? Hmm, where’s global warming there?

The same way gravity is a theory (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_gravitation). The same way the notion that germs cause illness is a theory (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_theory).

Don’t be so dismissive of the word “theory.” People who dismiss Evolution do the same thing. What they seem to not understand/choose to ignore is that, in order for serious scientists to call something a theory, there has to be a lot of evidence to support it. And if you really don’t understand that, you should probably go back to your high school and tell them they did a poor job with your science education.

I agree with u that greenhouse effect is defenitly a factor… But how much “credit”, if you will, we give that factor is still the question.
By mere theory i meant how much the fact that some of us totally stamp the greenhouse effect as the one and only problem causer.

Nice replies btw, some interesting thoughts :)
