For those who deny Climate Change, it must be obvious that the Insurace Industry must have been taken over by Muslim Socialist Enviro-nazis who all have Kenyan Birth Certificates:

Climate Change: Insurers Confirm Growing Risks, Costs-Insurance Networking News

Quote:

Property and casualty insurers in the United States experienced an estimated $44 billion in losses last year when hurricanes, droughts, tornadoes and other natural disasters were more severe, longer, more frequent and less predictable than in the past.

According to Swiss Reinsurance, the average weather-related insurance industry loss in the U.S. was about $3 billion a year in the 1980s compared to approximately $20 billion annually by the end of the past decade.

“As a member of the global insurance industry, we have witnessed the increased impact of weather-related events on our industry and around the world,” said Mark Way, head of Swiss Re's sustainability and climate change activities in the Americas. “A warming climate will only add to this trend of increasing losses, which is why action is needed now.”

The warning bells are being sounded. Time to wake up.

Is there climate change? Of course. There has been climate change since the Lord created the Earth. Where the liberals are confused is that they think that man has enough effect on the Earth to cause it. This is the part of it that makes so called Global Warming as one of the biggest scams ever. The liberals are even proving themselves gullible enough to believe that it is caused by man.

Thousands of years of change on Earth with only a little over 100 years of data? The so called scientists are so full of themselves they think that they can just make up the rest of the data.

If something cannot be proven 100% with no doubt at all, then we must ignore it.

If the glove don't fit, you must acquit.

Weather does what weather does. No controlling Mother nature. it does seem as though there are more tornadoes, hurricanes, floods etc. but then I'm no weather expert.

That's a nice picture of you, I like the suit.

neither are the people who claim that there is no climate effect caused by man.

Hey, I got an idea! Let's eliminate Birth Control so we can have even more people !

All I know is I have experienced taking the 300D through high flood waters. It destroyed the starter which cost about $400 to replace. A merc diesel 300D does not make a good boat.

"Historical records of solar activity indicate that solar radiation has been increasing since the late 19th century. If a trend, comparable to the one found in this study, persisted throughout the 20th century, it would have provided a significant component of the global warming the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports to have occurred over the past 100 years," he said.

from your 2003 link - Although the inferred increase of solar irradiance in 24 years, about 0.1 percent, is not enough to cause notable climate change, the trend would be important if maintained for a century or more.

I don't believe that anyone is claiming absolute knowledge in the climate debate (except for the hardline naysayers) rather, the ongoing research is highlighting effects that are created by man.

It all seems like the acid rain debate.

What JR likes to do now is to claim that those on the right don't believe in climate change...The right's argument is that it isn't man-made.

Nice trolling thread...

I would be hesitant to say "the right", as I am certain there are a large number of people who vote right that also believe that man made climate change is happening.

The title could be a slight case of over chumming the waters....

I don't see any negative aspects of tryig to be more courteous to our planet. This debate always gets peoples undies in a bunch and to me it just seems like a moot point. Man made, global warming or not, my spidey sense tells me that spewing a crap ton of pollutants into the air is not going to benefit us in the long term. Just check out smog levels in cities and the associated lung issues...heck in Chester pa (lots of industry, oil refineries) the cancer rate is nearly double that of surrounding areas. It just seems like a common sense thing to do regardless if global warming even exists.
