This is so Utah

Wow, I already have 2 fans!!!! I love it!!!!
Global Warming is not about brainwash, it is time to lean and recognize what are we doing wrong and leave ignorance and cowboy thinking away "if you are not with us, you are our enemy...doesnt work anymore, it is time to talk fellas!
It is not about being "liberal" or "conservative", it is about to do something better than not doing nothing about the place WE live on it.
Global Warming is there, soon or latter, but is there, and WE are helping to get it sooner, it is not about A NATURAL PROCESS ANYMORE, WE ARE HELPING TO GET THIS NATURAL PROCESS FASTER.
It is not about Gore's movies, because politicians want to get more money for their pockets, doesnt matter righ or left side!!! and you dont get that!!!

I think is better for our future generations, better quality of life, we buy our homes with sacrifices and what we do...WE TAKE CARE OF THEM, same thing with our land...WE TAKE CARE OF IT...simple.

I dont care about environmentalist or Mr Gore, I care for what I CAN DO!!!

Wow, so instead of just trusting what people say, I actually went to NASA's website, and they say Global Warming is real. In fact they say the atmosphere has NOT cooled down, and they are UNSURE as to the Sun being a factor in this.

Please name one study, one organization that is not funded by Exxon Mobile/Shell/Chevron that really debunks Global Warming.

Human caused climate change is a lie. It's about power and money and it is working. You keep on wasting your time trying to change the climate. I'm going to spend my time on issues that really count.

I don't care about environmentalists or Mr. Gore either. I care about the survival of this country and my childrens future. That is why I am going to do everything in my power to send Obama packing next election. Hopefully he hasn't totally destroyed us by then. Obama is a lot more dangerous than global warming.

Good point Darrel !!!

to "to this is so Utah 10:51"...Climate change is happening as a "natural result", did you get that? BUT...with OUR help is speeding up, instead of taking 20 years, it will take 10..go it, or need apples to understand that?

I dont think Im wasting my time to change climate, like you I care about my kids and education, health, save money, live a good life, BUT also I need to remember that I need a place to live, a safe place to live and if there is something out there that can help to live better and have good health I take it, simple. It is time to take care of each other, we live in a selfish world, where "me" is first, "me" is second and "me" is third and so on....but if we dont take care of OUR home, OUR planet, OUR land, there is not going to be future for next generations.
If you want to vote Obama out next election...good for you, that is called democracy, for now Im sorry. Have a good life, be happy, take care of your land.

Large bills like this Energy Bill should require a minimum of five years of research, reviewing all the options and implications before passing through the politician’s pen. Please vote NO. I support funding research of the options and implications before making new laws.

Global Warming

Mars is also warming...are we to blame for that too? Perhaps one should consider the sun as the true culprit or simple warming, post Ice Age. Writing of Ice Age, reminds me of the scare of the 70's. Scientists actually believed that another ice age or mini-ice age was likely. Some scientists today believe that scenario is still likely and far more threatening to society.

If Al Gore actually believed in man made global warming, he would massively downsize his home and not allow for his celebrity benefit to have permitted EACH individual performer bring his/her OWN private jet creating a massive carbon footprint. Since he doesn't believe it, based on his actions, why should I?

Randy

Now we have scienfic evidence to the contary. What do you think they will do now.

How the heck does this create a "21st century global economy" by forcing new sources of domestic energy with the legislation?

Darrel, Dr Richard Lindzen of MIT just come out with a 15 year long study on the trapping effect of CO2 on out going radiation. His study concludes that CO2 does not trap heat the way the scientific community thought it did. He states the IPCC's estimate on the effect of CO2 on the climate has been overstated by 6 times. Go research it. 2nd James Hansen of NASA is one of the worst scientist in the world, he's falsified several data bases for temperature records and had to correct them. Go look up the hottest year on record. It's not 1998. Also you think that the oil companies fund research, it's the other way round the environmental organizations are the ones funding research. Research that too. I encourge all of you to check out wattsupwiththat and climatedepot, they are really good websites.
