The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and NASA have both said that the 10 warmest years in history happened since 2000. 97 percent of working climate scientists believe climate change is due to the actions of humans. And the risk to the planet is even greater than some scientists thought. A visualization released Tuesday by NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, which monitors global surface temperatures, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaJJtS_WDmI.

mrawfull Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 You do realize that NASA and NOAA are both government agencies right? Now, what business are government agencies in again? Very good, they're in the business of getting more funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoreanHockeyFan Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 So according to the video...in 2013, the Arctic is blazing hot in comparison to California? I mean, red does mean hot right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadMonk Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 So according to the video...in 2013, the Arctic is blazing hot in comparison to California? I mean, red does mean hot right? What is begin shown is not the absolute temperature, but the temperature anomaly (i.e. how much warmer/colder a particular region is relative to the average of 1951-1980). In 2013, the Arctic is a lot warmer than what it used to be, whereas California is warmer but not by as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scientific method dictates that science absolutely must be 100% objective or its useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Just look at the scale and use it as a reference point. One degree change makes the colour change all the way from neutral to orange or neutral to blue. Nothing saying there's absolutely no need for concern, but if they changed it to 2 degrees, the colours wouldn't have changed much and the exaggeration would be minimal.

I dunno man, raising the entire Earth's temperature by one or two degree's in 60 years seems kind of significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standing_Tall#37 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I dunno man, raising the entire Earth's temperature by one or two degree's in 60 years seems kind of significant. So 60 years? About the same time Nukes started getting tested on a regular basis. The same time when cancer started becoming more predominant. Something tells me there is more to this story.

The scientific method dictates that science absolutely must be 100% objective or its useless. and yet most reports and studies are completely biased going in, hunting for a certain viewpoint, and when that viewpoint is not proved either the data is manipulated , dropped, or explained away. saying scientists are 100% objective is just foolish.

Aladeen Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Artificial Atmospheric Renewers need to start being produced on a global scale. Since we cut down vast sections of the natural ones. Technology has gotten us into this mess, it seems fitting that it should also be the solution. Actually some of the Technology already implemented is far superior to the Carbon storing ability of trees. NASA and NOAA should be receiving vast sums of funds (directly out of the pockets of major Oil Corporations and logging interests) to implement these Carbon sinks on a global level. The scariest part of this is that they release a Video like this with no viable plan to alter it. Obviously they have known that this is going on for decades. We are still going to use Carbon fuels for the foreseeable future so we must work within these parameters to solve the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had been trying to preach to idiots that global warming doesn't exist and people are buying it for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
