Over 90% of worldwide scientists accept climate change, so why not Americans?

Damn it, I didn't think you would smell the rawn pawl on me thru the internet. Where can I pick up one of those computers? Since you have me all figured out, I might as well come out the closet.

I'm guessing with all your ability's, I don't need to tell you which one is me.

Only that the greatest effect on a changing climate are solar and not caused by man. No matter what side of the debate people are on, things are to polarized to come to a good enough conclusion in my opinion.

True or false.
These questions should be a poll.

wheres the lists of AGW holes?

"AGW is a scientific theory?"
i believe it meets the criteria
A body of descriptions of knowledge is usually only called a theory if it has fulfilled these criteria:

  • It makes falsifiable predictions with consistent accuracy across a broad area of scientific inquiry (such as mechanics).
  • It is well-supported by many independent strands of evidence, rather than a single foundation. This ensures that it is probably a good approximation, if not completely correct.
  • It is consistent with pre-existing theories and other experimental results. (Its predictions may differ slightly from pre-existing theories in cases where they are more accurate than before.)
  • It can be adapted and modified to account for new evidence as it is discovered, thus increasing its predictive capability over time.
  • It is among the most parsimonious explanations, sparing in proposed entities or explanations. (See Occam's razor. Since there is no generally accepted objective definition of parsimony, this is not a strict criterion, but some theories are much less economical than others.)

science doesn't work that waybut thanks for playing

Newton's Law of Gravity can be explained by Einstein's Theory of General Relativity. To become a scientific theory, an idea must be thoroughly tested, and must be an accurate and predictive description of the natural world.
I'd like to know the Law of AGW.
Can someone explain why there were higher concentrations of CO2 in earth's history before the industrial revolution. Also why during periods of higher CO2 were there colder periods than now?

now your conflating "theory" with "law" and thats beside the issue of you talking crap while doing it

what points in history did we have higher co2 while lower temperaures than now?

No holes, conflation, critical thinking, laws or theories.

Has the earth's climate changed throughout history? Did man cause it?
Is the current climate within historical range? Can man change it?

you're dumb.

we just had one of the hottest years on record despite a lull in solar irradiance.

you should go write some peer-reviewed papers and collect your millions of dollars for proving 99.83% of the scientific community wrong.

Not just one of the hottest years on record, but the hottest year on record.
