I agree with the statement, however, we haven't been recording temperatures for the last 4.5 billion years. Those are estimates. The same for the NEXT 4.5 billion years.When talking of climate change we should state the period over which we are measuring the change.
The horror. Imagine human beings not only having destroyed the earth, but an entire pristine galaxy as well...I would think by the next million generations, we would be exploring ... live ... other galaxies...
I haven't had to run from a Hurricane since Katrina (2005). If that is caused by Global Warming, I'm all for it.I hope that new climate dries my underwear faster.
Undecided. To me at this point it seems to be a threat in the same way that a back yard full of mosquitoes is a threat. But give me 40 years to gather data and have a more informed opinion.Is Climate change a threat ...
There's at least 2 definitions of "concerns"; I'm not too worried about it, but it does affect me. (the latter is how I initially read the question, and what I based my answer on)....that concerns you?
Good way to put it Eric. I doubt it will mean much to any of us - except maybe #12's property value.Taking a very long term view of the climate, about 4.6 billion years ago it was hot, in about 4.6 billion years it will be even hotter for a while then .................
When talking of climate change we should state the period over which we are measuring the change.
The UK was under a mile of ice about 15,000 yrs ago, so the climate has changed since that time.
Records for weather in the UK started about 200 yrs or so, in the last 20 years we have broken all records for the last 200 yrs.
Its all relative, do I worry about climate change, No.
Do I worry how we are cra**ing up our home planet for our kids, Yes.

If East Texas turns into West Texas (or into the Gulf of Mexico) I'll move to Colorado just as it's turning into East Texas.
Not to worry. I have 30 acres in Kentucky where Tracecom will be my neighbor.I doubt it will mean much to any of us - except maybe #12's property value.
