For example, the models used by IPCC 2007 are more confident in predicting temperature compared to precipitation? Why is this?
If you have reliable reference, I would be very much thankful.
Thanks guys.
I mean, unpopular war, energy crisis, unpopular president, etc? It was before my time, so I only say this based on what I know. Any of you geezers who remember agree with me?
I am not trying to scare anyone but would like others opinions, I think the media should back off a bit and try and keep people positive, I am soo sick of the news focusing on the negative of the crisis, what about the positives, if any!!
Isn’t education about the relevance of the natural world, and the natural and social systems within the environment a core part of dealing with this crisis?
Im applying for scholarships at various universities in the US. Do you think that they will be limited more due to the global economic crisis and if so then would the bigger universities or smaller colleges be affected more? thanks in advance
Whenever I ask any question on the subject of Climate Change on here, every single time the vast majority of answerers write about how bad it will be if/when governments attempt to implement measures to reverse anthropogenic global warming (AGW), and the greater climate crisis that includes AGW. You all talk about higher taxes, higher interest rates, more control and enforcement by government to limit your freedoms, massive pay cuts and lay offs across the board, higher unemployment rates, more people living at or below the poverty line, and any of 1000 other fears related to your suspicion that acting in an environmentally responsible manner is too hard, too burdensome, or unneccesary.
Why do none of ya’ll, not a single person who has answered any of my climate change questions, consider or think about the great benefits and improvements to our lives, lifestyles, way of living, interacting, communicating, helping, and loving each other that will come from a change in thinking??????

“Have you ever shaken hands with an American vice president? If not, now is your chance. Meet Al Gore in Copenhagen during the UN Climate Change Conference,” notes the Danish tourism commission, which is helping Mr. Gore promote “Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis,” his newest book about global warming in all its alarming modalities.
“Tickets are available in different price ranges for the event. If you want it all, you can purchase a VIP ticket, where you get a chance to shake hands with Al Gore, get a copy of Our Choice and have your picture taken with him. The VIP event costs DKK 5,999 and includes drinks and a light snack.”
–Jennifer Harper, Washington Times
DKK 5,999 is about USD $1,209

I was reading over the latest journalistic hackery about global warming (found here) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/colum… and was struck by the words the world can no longer afford all those quixotic schemes for “combating climate change” with which they were so happy to indulge themselves in more comfortable times.
So during present economic turmoil, is this going to be the latest new tool for the anti-environment confusionaries to confound and manipulate the general public? Do you think the average person on the street will actually believe that any man made economic crisis could possibly be worst than a man made global climate crisis?
