This headline may come as a bit of a surprise, so too might that fact that the warmest year recorded globally was not in 2008 or 2007, but in 1998.

But it is true. For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures.

And our climate models did not forecast it, even though man-made carbon dioxide, the gas thought to be responsible for warming our planet, has continued to rise.

So what on Earth is going on?

We are going to spend trillions to stop something we think we can because we are vain!

erm.. the link failed for me.. so dunno bout that.

however, i have done extensive research into this cause i am a geography student and also because i love weather phenomenons.

two view points in this. firstly, the main viewpoint that earth is heating up and its due to CO2 release and other various greenhouse gases. this is something that most, if not all, of us should be aware of since everybody talks about it. therefore, i will not go further into detail for this.

second viewpoint is... we are not undergoing global warming and that that is actually a natural process that is leading to.... AN ICE AGE. yea... i said it.. weird i know... but some geologists believe so. afterall, earth was previously way way warmer then it is now millions of years ago. earth also enters a periodic ice age as part of a natural unexplained process. the last ice age ended well.. long time ago where the cute mammoths were. anyway, this period is explained by a mini warming process between ice ages. thus, since the last ice age just ended (only just ended because 1,2 million years ago isn't a lot for earth) and this is the mini warming period.... then the next ice age is coming soon! yea.. so these people say we should heat up the earth more to prevent such an event that would be deadlier then global warming.

to me, i say its bullshit and it is actually global warming. what do you say?

no one knows for sure until it actually happens..

Temp, dude, get with the times... it's now CLIMATE CHANGE!

Why? Well they took a shot with the term Global Warming, but once it was obviously proved wrong, they choose a new name that can cover anything. Can't fail, right?

heheh.. but i prefer to think of 'climate change' as a term only used by noob geologists. it basically means they sit on the fence and do nothing. only to wait till more prominent signs come about. then they take sides and make people think they are smartass. losers.
