i think that there is such a thing. i don't know that much about it because all i have read is the side that tells me there is. whether there is or not, i think that we problably need to make some changes, such as an alternative fuel.

I believe there is global warning and not just because of what scientist tell me but because of the changes is the weather all over the planet. Some places get far more rain then usual, other get completely dried out. There are a lot more natural disasters then before and a lot more extreme weather situations. Besides of the changes you can see there is also scientific evidence that proves the earth is warming up. I believe it is something that cannot be ignored and I think that those who do are ignorant.

I think it does exist but I think some people make it out to be much worse than it really is. I don't know to much about global warming but i know something needs to be changed in the way we live, because we do pollute the air bad.

Scientists can argue about whether global warming is happening or not until its has severe effects or nothing happens for ages. There is so much contradictory information that it's impossible to sort out the fiction, from the exaggerated, from the fact. It appears that nearly everyone agrees that the world in warming, but to what extent and to what extent humans have caused it is in debate. I believe we certainly must be having some affect, as it is greenhouse gases that cause warming-which is not always a bad thing, we wouldn't be able to exist without a certain amount of natural greenhouse gases!-considering the massive amounts of fossil fuel we burn for energy.
I believe that global warming exists, but the Kyoto protocol isn't quite the answer for me and I know that quite a lot of the projected information is actually impossible for us to accurately acquire at this point in time. But I definitely don't believe that the UN is playing a little 'economic game' with us, as claimed by some on the opposing side.
The steps we would take to protect our environment would ultimately be beneficial to everyone, regardless of what side of the global-warming argument you are on. Both sides of this argument should agree that investing in the research of renewable energy sources would be a good change. It would create a healthier environment either way, and besides, fossil fuels certainly aren't going to last forever. And...etc...

Yes global warming is real. We as a society keep using all these fuels and haven't considered some of the consequences and like the commercials you see today people just think it isn't their problem. They think that there won't be any major damage for a long time. No, we're not going to start a new ice age like in the movie "The Day After Tommorrow" but I do think people need start taking more action and consider the use of more alternative fuels.

Yes I believe global warming is real. Even if we choose to ignore it, it is real. I don't understand how we can ignore all of the scientists that say global warming is happening while we keep burning fossil fuels.

I don't think that there is any question to whether there is global warming but instead, what is causing it. Global warming may be a natural phenomenon, caused by carbon emissions, or maybe a mixture of the two.

Marisa said...

I think there is global warming. I dont know much about it!!!!!

elsie said...

i suppose but i really don't know much about it but they say its really bad.

Sammie said...

I do not know enough about Global Warming to say if it truly exists.... But as of now and what I read I do believe it exists....I also agree with Jessica that people put it out to be worse then it probably is. But we do need to change the way we live and be a little more protective of the Earth.

hallianne said...

Yes there is global warming. But as i was watching the Today Show today they said that with things such as Hybrid cars and other "go green" stuff we should be ok in the next 5 years or so.

Jonathan M said...

i do believe global warming is real. look at green land. the glaciers are shrinking at an alarming rate!

DI said...

yeah, i think global warming is real. I'm not to familiar with this topic, but yeah i think we should do something about this if we can, or else we will probably start seeing natural disasters.

holls said...

Yes there is such thing as global warming.. i dont know much about it but i agree with g-dub

holls said...

This is bunny lovers......Theres is such a thing as global warming. i really cant say im that knowledgeable on the subject. but its real.

Eryn T said...

yes i do believe that there is global warming but no everyone believes that its is not there. there is not enough debate on it to make people realize it is a problem.

DirtyDeeds said...

there is a lot of research supporting global warming and i do believe that it is a real thing, just not on the scale we put it out to be. I remember when it rained just because it rained. Now every time any weather happens, everybody blames it on global warming and it gets annoying.

Heidi said...

The world is getting warmer but I don't think it is all because of human's actions. I think this is just a natural part of the world changing. Can we do anything about it??? I DON'T KNOW!!!! I honestly don't know much about this subject.

felicia said...

yeah it is real. the only reason some people think it isn't is because they are not directly affected by it. nobody likes being told they are hurting the earth by the way we live and nobody wants to change. so they say all the scientists who have went through years of school, and spent millions of dollars on equipment, and half their lives doing research, are lying, and then they don't have to change.

jake kling said...

I think that global warming is real.

I believe it's real and it's happening as we speak. But as for the explanation of whether or not it's a cycle or if it's man made i'm not sure.

Jorge520 said...

yes global warming is real and dangerous

joel weis said...

yeah i think that Global Warming is real.

Ashley C. said...

Like most people I'm not well known with the topic. I think it is happening right now, whether it is a natural occurrence or we are making it worse I am not sure. But if we can help fix the problem then I think we should.

BAM said...

ya i guess it's real but i haven't seen it affect us out here yet.

I believe that GLOBAL WARMING IS A MYTH! I mean seriously if you look at some facts and do some research, you will find that our polar ice caps are 30% larger than they were 100 years ago. Another thing is that our temerature here on Earth has only increased 6.7% over the last 100 years. So if the polar ice caps are 30% bigger the reason that they are falling apart is because the smaller parts of the glaciers are falling off due to the glaciers increase in size.
