American Chemical Society "Comprehensive scientific assessments of our current and potential future climates clearly indicate that climate change is real, largely attributable to emissions from human activities, and potentially a very serious problem."
The Geological Society of America "The Geological Society of America (GSA) concurs with assessments by the National Academies of Science (2005), the National Research Council (2006), and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) that global climate has warmed and that human activities (mainly greenhouse‐gas emissions) account for most of the warming since the middle 1900s."
Wow you are dumb. The United States is already experiencing more intense rain and snowstorms. The amount of rain or snow falling in the heaviest one percent of storms has risen nearly 20 percent, averaged nationallyâalmost three times the rate of increase in total precipitation between 1958 and 2007. Some regions of the country have seen as much as a 67 percent increase in the amount of rain or snow falling in the heaviest storms â and an updated version of this figure from the draft National Climate Assessment suggests this increase may have risen to 74 percent between 1958 and 2011. Overall, itâs warming, but we still have cold winter weather. If global warming is true, why is it cold in the winter?The seasons we experience are a result of the Earthâs tilted axis as it revolves around the Sun. During the North American winter, our hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun and its light hits us at a different angle, making temperatures lower. While climate change wonât have any impact on Earthâs tilt, it is significantly shifting temperatures and causing spring weather to arrive earlier than it used to. Overall, spring weather arrives 10 days earlier than it used to, on average. âSpring creep" is something scientists projected would happen as the globe continues to warm. http://www.ucsusa.org/global_warming/science_and_impacts/science/cold-snow-climate-change.html
WOW!!! FC, you are TOTALLY CLUELESS!!! Those "academic" institutions live off the teet of the US government! If you even bothered to THINK FOR YOURSELF you would understand that! THEY HAVE AN ECONOMIC INTEREST IN PUSHING THE FALLACY OF "GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE" IIRC, the US government has spent over 30 BILLION DOLLARS giving it to fight "global warming" in foreign countries! Have a look.... http://www.forbes.com/sites/larrybell/2011/08/23/the-alarming-cost-of-climate-change-hysteria/
