If you had asked me a month ago, I'd say it is serious.
But last night we just had our first freeze of the season so it aint serious at all now.

We got a serious problem with global drying now. We need some rain.

Global warming? How about hot flashes?? That's more important.

Kinda sorta doesn't really matter. If the temp is going up, globally, it's a natural event, and nothing we can do about it. The good news is, humans are exceedingly adaptable (at least conservatives are) and we will make do.

How about "Could be serious"?

That is because it's being used as an excuse for big government. (Algore for president, anyone?)

The supposed dangers change from generation to generation, but the solution is always the same. That ought to be clue enough as to what this is all about.

Even if it is real and serious, we have no control over the sun so what difference does it make?

1) No tick box for "hoax".

2) The windchill now (11am) in Milwaukee is 8 degrees.

Global warming? It's November and I'm worry about global cooling. Ask me again in May.

That's the bottom line.

A better question would be "are greenhouses gases significantly contributing to global warming?" Cuz if the earth is gonna warm up on her own, as she has done many times before, there is not a dang thing we can do about it. If, on the other hand, the warming is man caused then we might be able to do something about it.

I don't think greenhouses gases are contributing significantly to any global warming, that is just a liberal fantasy to spread socialism around the world.

Didn't have non-existant. We're experiencing such severe "global warming" here in Madison, that I had to dig out my winter parka yesterday. Brr!

I believe that it is a cycle - don't know how long of a cycle but a cycle none-the-less. 100 years or a million - who knows.

Flip flops, flower shirt, margarita and cheeseburger - along with some Jimmy Buffet tunes......
