You guys better take carw of your emissions before pointing a finger on others. I Assume your teacher thought you that!!

A higher mean global temperature, whether it's anthropogenic or not, causes more extreme weather. Winters are worse, summers are worse, hurricanes are worse, rains are worse, droughts are worse. It polarizes climate, it's hotter around the equator keeping it colder towards the poles, and when they mix in between (weather) the reaction is more extreme. The public (and apparently Discover contributers) are so misinformed about global warming it's laughable. Just for reference, I work for an industrial emissions monitoring company, and everyday we laugh all the way to the bank over the hysteria alarmists have raised about global warming and how it ensures our business for the foreseeable future. If global warming is caused by man, which all of us at my work (and any scientist worth his salt) doubt, then there's nothing America can do to stop it with China just now ramping up it's industrialization. In a few years, whatever we prevent will be but a grain of sand to China's beach of emissions.

It's as ridiculous as the product being sold.... Why must people interject the “global warming” nonsenese into everything. It’s as ridiculous as the product being sold….
