Yup. Where I live we've had our...ohhhh 72nd day of July? With record breaking highs in October and stronger storm surges and systems, last year alone we personally had two massive floods within two months of each other which had never happened in the 13 years we've lived there and in the last 72 years of memory for the neighbors... the climate has indeed changed. It has changed throughout history and it will continue to change. How much and how drastically has been linked to human activity:

"The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia"

If you're interested in science and study then that's a good article, if you just want to say it's all God then.....well....there's not much else to say.

What is wrong with believing God controls the weather? He created everything, including you. :(

Side: Yes.

The only problem with believing in Him controlling the weather is when you deny scientific fact to a problem we have.

Say you are driving a car and the breaks stop working, you're barreling towards a cliff...are you going to try to turn the wheel or ask God to?

Humans created the car, God created the cliff, you aren't going to leave your fate in Gods intervention only, you are going to try to turn that wheel and avoid the drop.

Likewise, humans have created a situation that we need to rectify, we can't just leave it to God and keep going the course just because it's simpler. God gave us an amazing world and we have to take care of it. Ignoring the science isn't taking care of it. After all, didn't God provide the scientists to help warn us?

Democrats do seem to be running out of oxygen.

Did the Rain Forest fire cause that problem.

Is climate change real?

What an offensively stupid question. You sit here all day repeatedly telling us about your invisible friend Jesus, and then you ask if climate change is real. There is no reason for any sane person to even converse with you.

Side: Yes.

This debate is about climate change, stay on topic.

It is absolutely "on topic" to point out the person asking the question is insane, because it implies that the question might also be insane.

Side: Yes.

God controls the weather....................................................................................................................................................

Side: No.

Climate is always changing and always will.

This is why the enviromentalists have changed the name to climate change rather than golobal cooling, then global warming, etc. etc.

Side: No.

Listen to this very carefully:

Global warming is the trend we see that the Earth's average temperature is continually rising at present. This causes climate changes.

Nobody is "changing the name". Both things are happening. Warming is the cause of climate change.

Why is that so fucking difficult for you to wrap your head around?

Side: Yes.

Listen to this very carefully:

Climate has been changing since time began. If the globe is getting warmer today, that is a changing climate. In another hundred years we might be back to cooling. It's called changing climate.

There is no rock solid proof that these green house gasses are mainly caused by man's fossil fuels. Scientists are not positive.

One thing I know for sure is that for my entire life, activist Environmentalists have been screaming the sky is falling. First it was gbal cooling, then global warming, and then when the earth was not warming as fast as they said, it is now climate change.

These environmentalists have always hated fossil fuels and because if this will use any climate change to demonize fossil fuels.

When someone is selling us something, we should always question their motives and their facts. I do not believe activist groups because they have an agenda.

When I start seeing the Oceans rising as fast as they told us it would, I will take notice!

Side: No.

That's like saying heat has always existed and always will when someone questions your idea about flying into the sun.

Side: Yes.
