Why cant scientists stop telling us there is global warming when it isn't global warming at all?

The job of a scientist is not to proclaim what does or does not exist. A scientist collects justifiable facts and establish models to explain facts and form predictions. It is true that global temperatures have been falling for the last 12 years, but scientists don't say 'this disproves global warming' because it is not their job. Instead we are told by loud-mouth activists that this is just a blip (a 12 year blip out of the last 15) or that the climate is cooling but will soon warn up very sharply because it's cooling now. And of course some scientists ignore this information and carry on about it anyway. I suppose they've crossed from the 'scientist' side to the 'loud-mouth activists'.
Very few scientists or climate experts are spouting anything that resembles a statement of certainty on this issue. That is left to political experts, environmental groups and extremists on either side. There is proof the planet has warmed 11 degrees over the past 6000 years. Most of that warming before man has burned any fuel. 0.2 to 0.5 degrees is all we have noticed since 1850 and almost all of that before WW2. Science and climate experts do not ignore the possibility, but only state the facts above. To make silly conclusions either way is left to those that do not bother with scientific principles. There is no certainty either way and no true science body claims there is.

If you could write a letter to someone about global warming who would it be?
Yourself! Ask yourself is global warming an actual global happening or is it just bandwagon jumping by the liberal wishywashy brigade who cant seem to fathom that the planet is millions of years old and goes through varying weather cycles? Fud
What are 3 ways global warming effects wild life?
global warming is rising the temperature of the earth so in the anatartic it causes the glaciers to melt....and th animals there cannot bear high temperature than their original.... thats one reason global warming is also caused by deforestation so that takes away homes for animals who considers trees as their home global warming means increase in carbon di oxide which may effect animals
In which layer would weather systems have the greatest effect on living things?
polar bears because they cant get food because the water is not frezzing and they cant travel the seas in hunting season global warming effects them the most
Why do people disagree with global warming?
Science looks for ultimate causes and attempts to answer the question of "why" phenomenon observed occur through observation and experimentation. Much like experts can't agree on the causes of gravity, there are many theories on WHY or HOW it is happening, but they all agree that it IS happening. There is never really 100% consensus in science because until a theory has been disproven it is a possibility to being the truth. Science is all about relative truths, and all "laws" are really just theories and can be replaced if new evidence is gained in support of an alternative hypothesis or explanation. ___________________________________________________________________ Actually, the large majority, globally, of scientists do agree on the causes of Global Warming, particularly on man-made global warming and on what to do to reduce it. The problem is that the media when discussing the issue and to avoid being labeled as biased often allows two experts to comment on it, one for each side. This creates the false impression that the scientific community as a whole is equally divided on the issue, which it is not. Add to that the fact that many so-called skeptical scientists and organizations are either directly or indirectly funded by those corporations which stand to loose should carbon dioxide reducing policies be adopted. The 'scientists' and organizations are often the loudest yet do little more then repeat global warming myths over and over again. Their objective is clear: not to debunk global warming as a whole but to spread misinformation so the general public wrongly believes the science is not settled. ______________________________________________________________ You will find that there is a great deal of grant money available in making sure that man induced global warming is a possible situation. This coupled with the fact that some political groups are attempting to make this "situation" be the cause to reduce lifestyles and transfer trillions of wealth to poor countries, make the issue one that many do not wish to go away currently. Facts are altered (climategate), ignored (pusedo science blogs) and lied about. When people like climate audit catch these lies, the main stream media all but ignore the reality. The lies are quickly swept under the rug and the alarmist crowd moves on. There are many good reasons to keep this "crisis" from being found false. The transfer of wealth, limiting of freedoms and the large grant money many "scientists" enjoy )with almost zero work or effort) make this a great scheme for lining pockets and changing lifestyles. If you view the data, it is hard to reach the conclusion that global warming is a man induced issue. That does not mean it is not happening, it does mean we can not actually say it is or is not. The greed of many though, will prevent us from ever saying 100% that it is not so.
What effect does global warming have on forests?
Global warming affects our forest because it affects the food chain. I say that because some animals cant have to much light and if they do they will eventually die of. If that animal dies of the predator of that animal will soon die of as well. That leads to the trees because some animals keep the tree alive and healthy and if their food source dies of they will not be able to keep the trees alive. Factories should keep on their filters on all day instead of taking them of at night, that is also a big part of global warming. You may not think factories are causing the forests to die but they do.
Why do you hate global warming?
you cant hate global warming?!

What are some solutions to prevent volcanic earthquakes?
you cant stop them. the happen naturaly. when it happens it happens you cant sop it you can only get out of the way. also global warming has nothing to do with this eather.
Without Global Warming?
without global warming you cant live because without it you wouldn't have enough heat kept in the earth. he earth would be cold... but with greenhouse layers there's too much heat kept in or protected .. so this melts icecap's. etc.

Did dinosaurs die of global warming?
Possibly. This is one of many theories. We cant prove what caused their extinction. See the related question below.
How does global warming kill poison dart frogs?
it so hot the poison protects the frog and poison melts off and cant protect themselves
Is it believed that scientists have the power to predict or stop global warming?
No, they cant, they need magic to do that and magic does not exist They may someday have the ability to say if man has anything to do with the issue or not. They absolutely have no control over the issue itself as man only makes 0.28% of all the greenhouse gas that is attributed to global warming. Without global warming, we would all die as it is what keeps us warm. Currently, they have missed on every prediction they have made. From 1970's claim of cooling until the 1999 reports from the IPCC stating claims of wild flooding and destruction. They missed the fat that there has been zero warming in over a decade currently. The record growth in the Arctic last fall was also missed by them. Climate is MUCH harder then the weather. How do they do with the weather?
How can global warming change the world?
the answer to this question is simple. it csn change the world by making us suffer in co2 and we can all die one day if we cant get something good out of this
Are there any solutions to the melting glaciers on Mt Kilimanjaro?
Mt. Kilimanjaro is not indoors and the earth itself cant be cooled down. The only thing that we can do and may be solution is to stop global warming.
In which layer would weather systems have the greatest effect on living things?
polar bears because they cant get food because the water is not frezzing and they cant travel the seas in hunting season global warming effects them the most
