		<description>Extremely well put.
Indeed ...what are we to believe? The web is flooded with opinions about one theory or another...still people fall to extremes when judging the matter closely.

Corporations like Exxon pay scientists to dig up info stating that global warming is the result of Earth&#039;s evolution while the compelling evidence that this evolution comes clashing into the current destructive human behavior makes the environmentalists cry out that this is a lie.

Well...it is not. The Earth has been proven to have gone through massive changes over the millenniums, but then the industrialization and technology was not around then to interfere with them.

The bottom line is that ...no matter what we say the Earth is changing and we should reconsider what we do during its time of change.

The sooner we stop hurting it...the better.</description>

		<description>Guardian has described a reaction towards the theory that global warming is directly linked to the human interference, not supporting the hypothesis that a periodicity in the evolution of the planet would be responsible for it.

The bottom line is this: If the Earth has gone through significant changes in the axe, significant modifications in its evolution have ultimately followed. The two glaciers eras are the evidence that the Earth’s going through major changes over the millenniums and I doubt ice probes are enough to prove how major.

Apart from this …let’s consider that the previous modifications of the Earth (people should make some research on them) had not had the “privilege” of being accompanied by the presence of the human race who seems so eager to do its part in deteriorating the planet that it calls home.

Taking the history of this planet, adding the humanity and all its wonderful ability to destroy the result cannot be good.
 

Still if it were just the human kind destroying the world it would take a bit …longer, or it would be more drastic …like a major atomic reaction.</description>

		<description>Okay, seriously.  Somebody please explain to me what this article is trying to say.  That climate change *is* the result of human interference?  That it *isn&#039;t*?  I see no chain of reasoning that I can follow either way.

Furthermore, the paragraph saying that a &quot;study conducted by UK Met Hadley Center on the arctic ice has concluded that the increase and decrease in the arctic surface is the result of a pattern&quot; seems to directly contradict what I find on the source article from the Guardian, which quite clearly states that:

&quot;A major Met Office review of more than 100 scientific studies tracking the observed changes in the Earth&#039;s climate system finds that it is an &quot;increasingly remote possibility&quot; that human activity is not the main cause of climate change.&quot;

Note the &quot;not&quot; down there towards the end.  They don&#039;t appear to be saying anything about natural patterns.

What&#039;s the story?</description>

		<description>What a farce, the article from the guardian takes the exact opposite position. Either this title is purposely misleading, (thanks because this topic could certainly use more misinformation) Or someone did not read the guardian article and understand it.

From the guardian article:
Climate change scientists have started a fightback against sceptics who argue that the observed changes in the Earth&#039;s climate can largely be explained by natural variability.

The statement from this article:
&quot;As far from the truth as it may seem, the climate changes including the melting of the icecaps from the Earth’s poles can actually be caused by a certain pattern that is actually ruling the history of the planet.&quot;

It appears that this is purposeful deceit.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not even quite sure I understand what this article is trying to say.  The little graph there seems to indicate that the ice coverage is decreasing over time... but then the text below seems to talk about a Met Hadley study which indicates that the temperature increases are the result of natural patterns, and not human-induced trouble.  But then the last paragraph seems to refer to a study (the same study?) that somehow &quot;proves&quot; this, but then doesn&#039;t provide a link to the study.  So I follow the link to the source - the Guardian story - which states:

&quot;A major Met Office review of more than 100 scientific studies tracking the observed changes in the Earth&#039;s climate system finds that it is an &quot;increasingly remote possibility&quot; that human activity is not the main cause of climate change.&quot;

Which seems to quite clearly state that the Met Office is moving towards the conclusion that it is in fact human activity driving these changes.  What exactly is this article getting at?  What is the main point?</description>

		<description>No mention, of course, of the fact that surface ice levels in the &lt;i&gt;Antarctic&lt;/i&gt; are actually increasing, completely out of step with the predictions made in the IPCC 4th report.

Explain that please warmists. Oh, you can&#039;t? Let&#039;s all ignore it then. Move along, nothing to see here...
