How clever of the UN

[poddster]

Why did the UN and the Global Warming religion change from 'Global Warming" to "Climate Change"

After a decade of the earth not warming outside the normal fluctuation the UN was able to be contradicted and shown that Global Warming was not happening.

When the change was made to Climate Change the contradiction was removed because every one KNOWS that the climate changes and always has done.

Now lets see if the UN can demonstrate how humans are having an adverse affect on the climate.

My post is to ashoma.

And my post was a question to you 🙂

How DOES polluting the world relate to climate change?

[just_me_karen]

Ok ashoma, that makes sense and I agree with the heavy metals etc.

But I do believe the imbalance we've created with co2 is damaging the natural climate. Perhaps there is too much focus on co2 and that's what causes some confusion.

Do you think the world would be a better place if we relied upon natural energy sources, instead of coal fired power?

some are confused thats obvious.

we are polluting the world so ignore the climate ! b brilliant.

The climate will do just fine on its own, it's way bigger than we are. No need to worry.

But I would be worried about what those in power have planned for the rest of us

The chemicals released into the environment are, eg mercury, heavy metals, dioxins, radiation from Fukushima

Carbon dioxide is not a problem

It is when it is out of balance. 

And it is man-made pollution that is tipping that balance. 

And the effect on carbon dioxide is not just about man-made pollution. The problem is that we have affected the natural order in so many ways and so rapidly. Deforestation is a huge factor for eaxmple.

I would love to live off the power grid, for several reasons:

- pollution and climate damage
- cost
- to reduce the dollars going into fat men's pockets
- self reliance

Climate change or no climate change, surely it's better to live cleanly? and support businesses that produce cleanly?

I reckon it'd be really sad if we gave up coal and replaced it with nuclear, as hinted by some politicians.

But Martini, is it out of "balemce" ?

It has not deviated from normal swings of tolerance.
