Poll: 53% Of Americans Don’t Believe In Man-Made Global Warming

The majority of the worlds scientists have been hired to develop weapons systems, 'cause of them godless communists, or overly-godly terrorists, or god-like aliens or to blow enough shit up to close the hole in the ozone or just because the defense contractors make money out the ass whether their product works or not.

I have read some people wonder how scientists can all be fooled into going along with the whole global warming belief. I found a presentation that explain it all from A-Z. Watch it if you wanna better understand the supposed crisis.

Also I was thinking about something lately, if the scientist explain the lack of warming by saying the heat is being absorbed by the oceans, why are we not seeing accelerated sea level rise to account for the oceans absorbing all that heat for 17yrs now? also, could that mechanism explain the lack of warming in the past? thereby screwing up the historical temperature data we are using to compare with current data.

I think I will disregard any temperature data that doesn't correct for this newly discovered phenomena.

That's it? I seriously would have thought it was higher than that. Global warming is dead and is now just being dragged through the mud by politicians with an obvious agenda.

Depends on how you present the figures. If you include "don't know" with those who say "no" (and one cannot assume that the "don't know agree with the "no" people) you can get to 53%. According to the poll, http://www.people-press.org/2014/06/26/section-7-global-warming-environment-and-energy/

Overall, 61% of the public say there is solid evidence that the average temperature on Earth has been getting warmer over the past few decades, while 35% say there is not solid evidence that the Earth is warming.

Among those who say the Earth is warming, most say it is caused by human activity (40% of the public), while fewer say it is because of natural patterns in the Earth’s environment (18%).

Those who do not believe there is solid evidence the Earth is warming are divided, with as many saying they “just don’t know enough yet” (17% of the public) as “it’s just not happening” (also 17%).
