Global Warming???

[TiggersPal]

I wasn't sure where a good place to post this was. But we've been having many discussions at work about Global Warming. Because of "An Inconvenient Truth" and all the propaganda - we've done some interesting fact finding. Here is an interesting scientific response:

This should be over on the CB but I've heard about the film maker and the controversy of his documentary. I don't understand why the experts who go against "the machine" are ridiculed and in some cases threatened.

I have nothing to add to this thread. I haven't even read a single post on it. But I have been looking at Charade's name everyday for a while on the top of the CB. Because he was the last to post here. So I figured I'd still the limelight and post something and have people see my name all the time. Well, we'll see how long it lasts. :rolleyes1


By the way, I don't believe global warming is man made phenomenon. We've only effected the planet in minor ways compared to what happens naturally. Yes, I think it's a natural process the earth goes through. It cools, it warms, it cools and so on. But I do believe conservation is a good thing. A cleaner, healthier planet is nothing but good.

Mean while here in New Zealand everyone is frying from UV radiation from the hole in the ozone layer that everyone forgot about...they were supposed to send rockets up there with ozone in it 15 years ago to fix it...

UF started the love bug thing here in Fl! At least that's how the urban legend goes. (They're really from Central America) And they don't have two heads. They're mating. There are two of them joined doing the nasty.

[mrincredible2008]

nasty is the word. they have globally warmed my windshields and bumpers. i have been told that they have no predator. seems like they multiply each year, in more than one nasty way.

I have decided that I will no longer read any political threads here on the Dis. For the longest I've tried to not participate, but I still read them. Now I will try to no longer read them. People are so set in their ways that a message board will not change their views and I couldn't give a rat's hairy butt if they do.

I don't know why I take some of these threads personally. What others think of Bush, Condi, O'Reilly, etc., has little effect on my life. But I read these things and think "what a stupid, arrogant..." and why? Because they don't think like I do. That's stupid. I don't want to have bad thoughts about anyone. Even if they are liberals.

I'm just going to keep on voting with my heart. Wrong or right, that's all I have.

I tend to agree. I don't mind particpating in healthy dialog about hot issues but as usual, they tend to quickly degrade into a slamfest of the other poster's character instead of their opinions.

I'm glad summer is over. It's time for some global cooling! :goodvibes

got to think on this one. arent we all to an extent? is that a pet turtle?

[Tiziminchac]

Yes, it is. Actually I run a turtle rescue farm. With the temperatures of the world's oceans rising (because of that pesky global warming thing) the turtles are having a hard time adjusting. So I take the turtles and put them in these huge tanks where I slowly adjust the temperature everyday. Slowly going higher and higher until the turtles are acclimated and can be released back into the wild. It's not easy but I just wanna do my part.

while living on the coast for several years, I fed a gopher turtle. which are illegal to own. i tried everyone i knew to take this turtle. (it was illegal to remove him) He just came up and made his home under my deck. Boy can he run fast! when we sold the house I told the new owners that they must care for the turtle. I pray that they did. Then katerina hit. I often wonder what happened to him. I'm with you on the turtles. posted by (mrs.incredible)

That's an awesome thing you do! I finally realized a dream of mine and swam with (well, not with, but what other word can I use?) a sea turtle in the wild on St John, USVI. It was an awesome experience. He/she was eating the sawgrass in about 6ft water. Yes, I stayed back so I wouldn't disturb it and I didn't touch it. It did start to surface between my ankles but it decided to dive back down at the last minute. Let me tell you, my heart stopped b/c here I was just floating, trying not to disturb it and it almost ran into me! It was an experience that my 8 yo son hasn't forgotten either. He's all about some snorkeling and scuba diving now. Who knows, maybe he'll be a marine biologist!

[mrincredible2008]

:banana: glad to see another mississippi diser. need to update my avatar with ms.(south ms.).

[vital]

I'm originally from Hattiesburg, but unfortunately now I live in a suburb of our crime infested capitol. UGH! I miss the 'burg and south ms terribly.

[mrincredible2008]

just got back from the our capital. went to state fair during daytime hrs. we are about an hr. south in simpson county. good time at fair just extremely hot and muggy all day. it is a shame how bad jackson is...hopefully, things will eventually improve. pretty scary right now though.

[mrincredible2008]

time for a global bump

[Tiziminchac]

Everytime I think I'm out they pull me back in! :mad:

By the way, I think Jackson is a nice place. Of course I haven't been there since I was a teenager. My Dad took me through Mississippi on vacation once. The Natchez Trace Parkway was beautiful.

i actually thought about you and this global topic yesterday, in a home depot as i was trying to find replacement circline bulbs for all of my "green" lighting. i realized that the "green" has to do with the price replacement bulbs cost. got a deal on all the fixtures a couple years ago when i built the house. didnt realize that as bulbs go out, it costs an arm and leg to replace. but just think, i am being green, not holding on to it, wallet wise. :confused3

Cool! I didn't do anything for the environment today. It's hard keeping up with the Incredibles!

Global warming is supposed to come back this week. I was enjoying the cool down we had. Oh well.:rolleyes:

[mrincredible2008]

was in the local walmart today. saw a george grill on a stand. looked like it was selling with only two left. must be a globally hot item.

[Tiziminchac]

I'm gonna hang on to mine. It may be worth something some day. Maybe I'll look up old George himself and see if he'll autograph it for me. You never know. Cha-Ching! ;)

[mrincredible2008]

you ever wonder what happened to all the other posters on this thread. you think gore-bal warming did them in?

Maybe this thread is too cliquish (sp?) for them.

[mrincredible2008]

global warming.....got the a/c on and Santa is 2 wks away.....what is your temp?

[Tiziminchac]

Hey! How ya doing? I hope ya had a Thanksgiving. :)

I've only been able to turn my a/c off a couple of days so far this holiday season. But it looks like I may get that chance again tomorrow or Monday. It may even get down into the 50's! Woohooo! I love cold weather. This is the best time of the year here in Florida. It was warm today we had a high around 83 degrees.

[mrincredible2008]

It was great. Good to see you back. Holidays are going great, weather is great. Today is the first ALMOST cold day of the year, temps not as good as yours but hard to complain especially when you see snow and ice and nasty stuff up north.

[Tiziminchac]

Are you ready for Christmas mrincredible? I'm not. I haven't done a lick of shopping. And I'm not looking forward to it. I should just give out gift baskets full of tanning lotion and sunglasses. You know, global warming kits.

I will finish up the shopping tommorow...must be a guy thing. I did find my son a Wii system. Temps are in the 30s tonight, starting to fill like Christmas. We do not have harsh, cold weather during the winter...low temps at night but back up in 50s during the day....my kind of winter. Will be looking for my global warming kit about April. Have a Merry Christmas Tiziminchac :santa:

[Tiziminchac]

Merry Christmas to you too! And Happy New Year!

I still haven't started shopping. I have tomorrow though. Most likely I'll just give out cash. It's just so much easier than shopping. As for the temps here, I think it's in the low 70's outside as I type. I'm hoping for some real Christmas weather though for tomorrow and Christmas. Like mid 60's or so! Burrrr!

[Tiziminchac]

I have nothing to say. I just wanted my name out there for everyone to see. Everyday. All the time. ;)

What has been going on in the sunshine state?

[Tiziminchac]

Hey! You quoted me and my typo is stuck out there for all to see!


What has been going on in the sunshine state?I wish I had exciting news, but I don't. My Buccaneers were smacked down last weekend in the playoffs. And I've had no work all week. It's been pretty boring around here. But all my problems are over. I bought a lotto ticket and I have a feeling that tonight is the night. This time next week I'll be in Belize soaking up the atmosphere. It's gonna be nice.:cool2:

[Tiziminchac]

Bad news... I didn't hit the lottery. :mad:

[mrincredible2008]

Oh well, maybe next time. Closest NFL team to me is the Saints. Big Ole Ms. fan, got to pull for the Manning boys also. By the way, thanks for keeping me seat wurm. :)
