AGW - anthropogenic global warming.

anthropogenic - created by people or caused by human activity: anthropogenic pollution.

a thread to the facts, articles ...etc around AGW. (to start again without the noise)

While the forecasting models are never accurate, people and government may listen more if recent events can be attributed (if they are) to AGW. People only understand what happens to them and they can assess the cost in lives and money to determine if something should be done if the projections show, it will only get worse.

Hi Super Nova,
there is strong evidence for anthropogenic global warming.

Please feel free to present as much evidence as you want.

I remember reading up on evolution and creationism and the different approaches and I finally got to a big answer, peer reviews, evolution about 10 years ago had 1000’s of peer reviews and creationism about 3 and 2 them the guy was in jail for fraud.
So instead on biquring so much, why not quote some peer reviews on for and against instead of newspaper articles and home spun antidotes.

Agw is real but it's only part of the puzzle.

We should be striving for clean energy because pollution is a known.

Yes the co2 debate is a great smoke screen for the fossil fuel industry.

One thing you will notice is lefty atheists are catastrophisng agw because all religions and cultures need some kind of end times story.  Climate change is theirs.

I believe in agw, I believe in renewables and I also believe no matter how much climate changes, humans will continue to flourish.

And the Arctic -

" THE ARCTIC IS MELTING

“It will without doubt have come to your Lordship’s knowledge that a considerable change of climate, inexplicable at present to us, must have taken place in the Circumpolar Regions, by which the severity of the cold that has for centuries past enclosed the seas in the high northern latitudes in an impenetrable barrier of ice has been during the last two years, greatly abated….

(see additional*)

….. this affords ample proof that new sources of warmth have been opened and give us leave to hope that the Arctic Seas may at this time be more accessible than they have been for centuries past, and that discoveries may now be made in them not only interesting to the advancement of science but also to the future intercourse of mankind and the commerce of distant nations.” A request was made for the Royal Society to assemble an expedition to go and investigate."

"Additional…

”Mr. Scoresby, a very intelligent young man who commands a whaling vessel from Whitby observed last year that 2000 square leagues (a league is 3 miles) of ice with which the Greenland Seas between the latitudes of 74° and 80°N have been hitherto covered, has in the last two years entirely disappeared. The same person who has never been before able to penetrate to the westward of the Meridian of Greenwich in these latitudes was this year able to proceed to 10°, 30′W where he saw the coast of East Greenland and entertained no doubt of being able to reach the land had not his duty to his employers made it necessary for him to abandon the undertaking.

This, with information of a similar nature derived from other sources; the unusual abundance of ice islands that have during the last two summers been brought by currents from Davies Streights (sic) into the Atlantic.

The ice which has this year surrounded the northern coast of Ireland ( see footnotes1) in unusual quantity and remained there unthawed till the middle of August, with the floods which have during the whole summer inundated all those parts of Germany where rivers have their sources in snowy mountains.”
