2. Temperature Data Satellites show data show no warming. The data is accurate to .01 degree Celsius. Land-based temperature stations show increasing temperature but the stations do not cover the entire globe and are sometimes contaminated by generated heat from nearby developments.
3. Computer Models Are Not Accurate Predictions of global warming are computer simulations and are not based in historical data.
4. Global Warming Could be Beneficial Global warming has been happening man times. From 800-1200AD temperatures increased and allowed Vikings to inhabit Greenland. And before that, in 5000-3000 BC, was even warmer and it marked the beginning of civilizations for humans.
5. Reducing Human Greenhouse emissions will be costly. Reducing CO2 emission to the target that the Kyoto Protocol set would merely change the temperature to decrease .14 degrees Celsius. For this little decrease it would result in a lose 2.4 million jobs and $300 billion in yearly income.
6. Some Lies Have Some Truth Temperatures have increase with the increase of CO2. But temperature Increase was starting before 1940 while the large increase in CO2 occurred after 1960.
7. Other Greenhouse Gases The greenhouse effect is mostly cause by water vapor since CO2 is heavier and CO2 is to heavy to go high enough in the atmosphere to effect the greenhouse effect.
8. Glaciers are not getting thinner but are getting thicker. Even Antarctic ice is getting thinker though the ice is never mentioned.
9. Sunspots Sunspots on the sun cycle which reduce or increase radiation that heats the earth.
10. Are We Being Lied To? In the 70’s the same government and scientists tried to scare us that the ice age was coming. Companies are making large sums of money through these topics.
11. What Is 134 Years? Most predictions are based on the data we have collected in the last 134 years. But the earth has been around for 4.5 billion years and the climate has been changing since the 1st year.
12. The Earth Isn’t Even Warming Even if the earth is warming it isn’t warming at a rate that needs to be labeled a crisis. The planet probably warmed through the 20th century but the warming stopped 10 years ago.
