   Over 6000 people died when a hurricane hit Galveston, Texas in Sept. 1900. Was that due to global warming? Or other storms many decades ago, like the cat 5 Labor Day hurricane in 1935?

   A few people have learned not to trust the truth our Government has spoken about that and to move to a better location so they won’t have to deal with the floods of towns Hurricanes have a reputation of doing it.If you’re stupid enough to stay there then you deserve to get hit.

   Even if mankind has nothing to do at all with the climate, isn’t it still in our best interest to reduce pollution?
   

   
   If there is any chance at all that our pollution is making the climate worse, isn’t it in our best interests to try to correct our mistakes?

   When I was a kid in NC nobody would build on the Outer Banks, but a fool. Now there is one half million dollar ‘cottage’ after another shoulder to shoulder due to Federal flood insurance. It is not an improvement.

   Global Warming can’t be true because it would cost money. We can’t acknowledge anything to be true if it costs money or would otherwise disrupt the Profit Machine.

   I agree with doc toon the climate has been changing for ever. the all that oil we get from the desert was at one time trees. and in the great lakes were carved by ice flows

   Bad weather does NOT mean AlGore’s global warming swindle is right. We’ve had bad weather periodically since forever. It’s CYCLICAL. sometimes we warm, and sometimes we cool. Thirty years ago they were worrying about "global COOLING.

   ah, it’s cyclical ;
   meaning, it’s inevitable so do nothing except keep on drilling

    Climate is cyclical and it is the height of arrogance and human pride to think that we can somehow control it. That being said, and understanding that the climate is going to do whatever it will do on its own, is no excuse for us not to be good stewards of the planet. But going to extremes and hurting people in the process of going “green” is stupid.

    Super storms are rare. Should it happen far sooner than the last one it will probably be due to the atmospheric and ocean heating up.

    @Doctor Toon

    First there is ample PROOF that it is affecting local weather and global climate. So many heat records were broken in the USA alone several times in 2012. Some of them had been around for many decades.

    It will cost us all money. The question is will we spend the money to help fix things or at least not make it WORSE, or continue on our present course and give the world the worst of all cases? A 9-11 degree Centigrade rise in ambient heat.

    @ronald rini

    But the climate the way it has been changing for 50 years is abnormal to the normal. All through the usual cooling cycle we have been instead warming. And now in the normal warming cycle we are still warming. See the pattern?

    @LarryW2LJ

    Not control it, but affect it in a stupid way. We upset the balance and now it is working to right itself. Only it won’t be like it was before at all. And if it heats up in the way it is developing it could hold off the next glaciation for 100,000 years or ten times the normal wait.
