Global Warming - Man Made, Natural, Nonexistent?
What is your take on global warming? Is it...
Man made?
Natural?
Nonexistent?
There is no right or wrong answer to this. I have a challenge. I will state what the challenge is when everyone has chimed in. There is no opinion allowed in this thread on the subject. Just state your answer and move on. I'll give it a couple of days. You can vote in the poll and not participate in what I've got up my sleeve or you can post a one line response with your answer to put your name in the hat.
Again.. no right or wrong answer. No bashing allowed.

They should take the warning labels off of everything and let stupidity sort itself out.

Well... looking at the vote I guess I have to scrap my idea lol. I was hoping for a broader opinion base.

Well nobody is stupid enough to think its man made by now. Everybody knows the sun has more of an effect than we could ever have.

I think for a lot of people that's true, but a lot of people are still 100% sure that what they've been told is true, and the Pol's don't want to give it up for whatever reason.
Most people I know personally are realizing it's been natural, and believe it's starting to cool off, the people who don't (a couple coworkers) are the super green liberal types who disagree with anything that's "republican/conservative" and state popular ultra-liberal opinion as gospel. Everyone else I know is on the "sun did it" band wagon.
Did I ever say how much I hate it whe people latch on to the mainstream ultra-Liberal or ultra-Conservative beliefs and refuse to listen to anything else, even when it's staring them in face? |

Well here is what I was wanting to do. I was wanting those who believe GW is natural to do a small research report/post/story on how GW either doesn't exist or is caused by man. Likewise if you think man is responsible I was wanting you to create one stating that GW is natural or doesn't exist. And you can guess what options I had if you didn't believe GW existed at all.
The reasoning behind this was to get people to think outside of what they believe is currently the truth. I want people to learn to be open minded and understand there is more than one side to every story. But with everyone picking the same thing it kind of makes this pointless. I wanted people with one belief to review the work of someone with another belief.

You forgot one, extraterrestrials preparing the world for a take over. They need it to be about 20 degrees warmer, so they took over GM and Ford many years ago, with the intent of causing the earth to heat up rapidly.

natural (but man isn't helping the situation)
The two best articles I have found so far are both in Wikipedia and are at the top right of the following page:
