Thankfully the poor Polar bears won't have to swim as far to get to a new chunk of ice now. I remember how they were all drowning from the lack of ice, and that was our "motivation" to get moving forward on "fixing the problem". Luckily Al Gore and his Ilk were all more than happy to start selling everyone "carbon offsets" while at the same time Al had one of the highest non commercial property electric bills in the state of TN. Obviously he takes this all VERY seriously and and is more motivated than ever to keep all those poor polar bears from drowning.
I still get tears in my eyes thinking of those purty white bears that can only swim 100 miles non stop, so I can see why everyone was so concerned.... DAMN YOU GLOBAL WARMING!!  |
staw man is a weak technique. It means you have run out of bullets.
Part of your sides weakness is that you dont seem to grasp that "global warming" does not mean a quiet slow increase in average temperatures wherever you happen to live.
Global warming is a technical term, referring to the average amount of heat energy stored in the ocean and atmosphere and the top few meters of the earth's crust. It doesn't produce an gentle even warming - the climate is a giant heat engine, and the slow increae of heat energy in the atmosphere produces all kinds of effects, including colder winters.
Because your side intentionally misunderstands what global warming means (for political purposes), some people have argued it should be called climate change, describing the result, not the cause. I don't agree with this trend. The technically accurate term is and remains global warming, a slight increase in the average amount of heat energy, which produces a broad spectrum of inherently hard-to-predict climate changes.
