    So, some of the other planets in the solar system are warming. Others are not. Which means this is not a universal trend with a single cause. Logic Fail in those who thought that it was--but don't feel too bad, you were SUPPOSED to think that.

    Now, if we assume that global warming and cooling cycles happen, then at any given time, some planets will be warming, and others will be cooling or holding stable. One does not have to be a genius to figure that one out.
    Obviously the same cause is not at work in all of these cases. Especially not for distant little Pluto. People with an agenda will say things that sound great, and encourage listeners to make assumptions. In this case, the assumption is that because some of the planets in our solar system are warming, all of them are warming and there is a central cause. That assumption is wrong.

    Dissect what you hear CRITICALLY. Every bit of it. Because both sides are leaving out important information, and if you don't question it, you'll be led like a sheep, and you won't be able to make up your own mind from a knowledgeable position.

    Now, for the folks in Florida who want to enjoy a frost-free lifestyle, that comes with a side dish of giant hurricanes--dig in.

    Why would we think the earth might be cooling back in the 70s? Ignorance. we mistook the signs of global warming for global cooling. It's not hard to do that, because global warming causes some areas to experience colder winters.

    The problem is that predicting average temperature rises in the South doesn't take into consideration the fact that winters may be colder, which would prevent tropical snakes from establishing. So, there is no need to attack global warming to refute the bs about the snakes expanding their colonization.
    In the 70's many of the same scientist that are now deleting emails and misplacing data also wanted to put coal on the polar ice caps. The theory was that the black coal would absorb heat thus HELP melt the ice caps, keeping us out of an ice age........ Your current assumptions on what we MUST do NOW will destroy the US. Blaming us, forcing the US to pay respirations to pour nations for the "damage" we have done.

    I'd like to again put my vote in for a Dislike button......
