no, we are supposed to be going into one, but because of "Global Warming" it isnt happening.

And to your previous statement Bonaparte, Scientist have done tests on it, so in this case, I do believe the news

(Woo go Ann, vegi power

Your all over-looking one thing, we'll die in 40yrs of Global Dimming before global warming has any significant effect on human life.

Quite the arguement with global warming. But lets remember one point in time most of the Earth was a very hot humid jungle..then went into ice age. Basically as Xiang said...earth temp, has varied for a lot of reasons.

But global warming could be happening..we just really don't know.

Of course then again a lot of people went on to believe what happened in "Day after tomorrow" is gonna end up happening to us.

K not sure what happened in "Day after tomorrow" so mind fillin me in oh that? As for anything else. People believe many things I question, then again I don't believe in much beyond what I can see or less there's proof. The thing I hear bout now is this Judgement Day thingy.

Whether i die in 40 years of global dimming, plundge into an ice age from global warming, get nuked off the planet by some angry president, or get wiped off the face of the earth by a big volcano, the fact remains simple to me. I'll be too dead to care.

However I don't at all condone the carbon emissions, or the vast amounts of nukes people seem to have. You can argue that global warning isn't caused by pollution but at the end of the day, who wants to take that risk?

what is global dimming? I havent heard that term before.

Xiang Zhuang · Post by **Xiang Zhuang** » Wed Jul 06, 2005 6:34 pm

Global dimming is the theory that the pollution we are creating in the air is going to reduce the amount of sunlight we get. This would then kill lots of wildlife and create a chain reaction affecting everything on the planet.

Again, it is a theory. Not something to ignore, though.

Edit: I should add that they aren't sure exactly what has caused it, though. They have recorded about 5% less sunlight now than 40-50 years ago, though. Could be cause for concern, or just a normal change that happens.
