Do you think it's true: A global warming?

[lehoanganh]

I think it is true because you can see it clearly that the ice in the North Pole is melting and the summer lasting longer and hotter causes dead for many old people. If we don't take action now, many cities in the world will dissapear forever, there will be no land for us to live and many kinds of trees and animals will die. Some people say that they won't beleive global warming until it happens but if it does, it will be too late to do anything.

Yes, global warming is global problem. For exmaple, nowadays is winter in our country, but it is like spring! It snowed 3-4 times or so. It was very cold winter last year, but this year we wern't evidence of winter, I can say.

i would like to react on kongapola
Yes it's true in Holland, where I live, you see a lot of bicycles
and I suggest that this is a good solution to the global warming
but I do not think you have to worry about it.
as long as there are four seasons, it will be fine

[akdomida]

yes, I think so, our earth is becoming warmer and warmer, how apprehensive everyone is now! especially, after you watch the Planet Earth + The Blue Planet,
you will think further and further.

Why is it that whenever scientists propose a theory, they never include the years in the 1930's, particularily 1934? It's because these years don't fit their theory of global warming. Those were actually the hottest years in history. In the 1930's the belief was that we were about to enter an ice age. They were obviously wrong. So are we. We say we know that we are going into global warming, but really, knowing is different than actual truth. So STOP arguing, and if you really think that global warming is coming our way, do something about it, and don't just sit here and push your ideas forward.

danyet, as a resistant of US you are guilty of increasing greenhouse effect...

Do you know what "greenhouse effect" is?
It is largely carbon dioxide and methane. All lifeforms give off carbon dioxide and methane. That means trees and even rain forests. You need to read BOTH sides of this issue.

I agree with you completely.

THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GLOBAL WARMING!!!

It's just a change from year to year. Watch out for next year. You'll see.

So what do you do?

I don't think that's quite right! Trees take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen, at least some of the time. (whereas animals take in oxygen and give out CO2)
