Come on, you cant just say you didnt find evidence, prove it, show me your facts. I'm not like you, I dont buy just any BS, you have to prove your point.
I dont think you will find that story on any other "News Source" (and I really stress news, networks that you watch like FOX or just pure BS 90% of the time) becuase it's not worth mentioning, maybe it will scroll on the bottom of CNN, or MSNBC, but it's definitely not worth air time, when you find evidence that Global warming cant be happening, then I will listen.
We really don't need to have this argument over whether global warming is real, and that humans are a main cause. If you would really study the subject and stop listening to political nutjobs, you would know this. The scientific community overwhelmingly agree, just do a little "real" research and you will find that out. It really dont matter how much evidence there is to prove Global Warming is real, people on the right will just find some sorry excuse like the article you gave that it isnt real.
Well, I guess I could follow Gore's path and make-up bogus information for you, but I just can't do that. In response to your first statement, The Government was unable to find evidence supporting Gore's claim that the "rising sea levels caused the evacuation of certain Island", so then Gore's claim appears to be false.
In the second statement, again the Government could not find any evidence to support Gore's claim that "Global Warming was the blame for species losses including coral reef bleaching, which appears to make this another false claim by Gore.
Here's a list of the 11 inaccuracies found by a British High Court
- The film claims that melting snows on Mount Kilimanjaro evidence global warming. The Government's expert was forced to concede that this is not correct.
- The film suggests that evidence from ice cores proves that rising CO2 causes temperature increases over 650,000 years. The Court found that the film was misleading: over that period the rises in CO2 lagged behind the temperature rises by 800-2000 years.
- The film uses emotive images of Hurricane Katrina and suggests that this has been caused by global warming. The Government's expert had to accept that it was "not possible" to attribute one-off events to global warming.
- The film shows the drying up of Lake Chad and claims that this was caused by global warming. The Government's expert had to accept that this was not the case.
- The film claims that a study showed that polar bears had drowned due to disappearing arctic ice. It turned out that Mr Gore had misread the study: in fact four polar bears drowned and this was because of a particularly violent storm.
- The film threatens that global warming could stop the Gulf Stream throwing Europe into an ice age: the Claimant's evidence was that this was a scientific impossibility.
- The film blames global warming for species losses including coral reef bleaching. The Government could not find any evidence to support this claim.
- The film suggests that the Greenland ice covering could melt causing sea levels to rise dangerously. The evidence is that Greenland will not melt for millennia.
- The film suggests that the Antarctic ice covering is melting, the evidence was that it is in fact increasing.
- The film suggests that sea levels could rise by 7m causing the displacement of millions of people. In fact the evidence is that sea levels are expected to rise by about 40cm over the next hundred years and that there is no such threat of massive migration.
- The film claims that rising sea levels has caused the evacuation of certain Pacific islands to New Zealand. The Government are unable to substantiate this and the Court observed that this appears to be a false claim.
I admit that I watch Fox News, I also spend about the same amount of time watching other news networks such as MSNBC, CNN, CHN and it seems like Dan Abrams and Keith Olberman of MSNBC are obsessed with Fox News and CHN, they give them more advertisements than their own networks. Of all the news shows on between 7pm and 10 pm I think Bill O'Rielly and Glen Beck are the most impartial host on TV today.
