It seems like half the questions in the global warming section these days are ‘if global warming is true why is it snowing today?’.

What percentage of global warming deniers do you think don’t know the difference between weather and climate, local and global, or past and present?

Considering this figure and the small minority of people who continue to deny anthropogenic global warming (AGW), what does this tell you about the AGW denial movement?

They say global warming is causing their to be more or greater natural disasters - in particuar cyclones - how does this work? Can someone explain it and preferably in simple terms.

Global warming is on trial in a court of law, a case has to be presented to convince the Judge and jury that manmade global warming is real. Hearsay and circumstantial evidence is not be permitted.

• What solid evidence would you present to the court?
• Which expert witnesses / reports / sources would you rely on?
• What arguments would you used to counter skeptic’s claims?

Please see my similar question regarding the case against global warming.

Jello has a point that things tend to get attributed to global warming after they happen. A few years back there was flooding in California and it was attributed to global warming and there were warnings that it was likely to get worse. Now there is a drought in California and it’s attributed to global warming and it’s likely to get worse. And I read that there is flooding and forest fires in different parts of Australia and they are both due to global warming…

Looking to the *future* what can we expect from global warming and where in the next few months?
“More extreme weather” is a bit broad. What more specific predictions are on offer?

I’m doing a debate for school and I am arguing humans are not the major cause of global warming, what are some other things that cause global warming? Any help is appreciated, thank you!

The last Ice age end 18,000 years ago at which point global warming began. This is before human civilization. So man didn’t start global warming but is contributing to the situation. I find that the warming rate is still a point of discussion but the total is around 2 degrees F every ten years. What part of the 2 deg F is caused by human civilization?
Leon – You need to do some reading and get the facts. The ice started melting before man built a city.
Larry B - “Climate models referenced by the IPCC project that global surface temperatures are likely to increase by 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F) between 1990 and 2100.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming
So we are talking about .2 - 1.1 deg F over 10 years from your source, but I have seen some at 2.5 deg F per 10 years.
Jeff P – What part of you speech is the answer to the question?
Hypofocus – I’m asking a question in order to make informed decisions. I’m not one of the sheep just getting in line!
Bob – Thanks for the graph, it paints a good picture.
