# One set of scientists claim it’s global warming and another believes it is not, then a third group of scientists say we might be heading towards global cooling.
# Every set of experts have impressive credentials and statistical data to support their claims, but, these contradictory statements fail to bring out the truth.
# It’s emerging more like a battle of the experts, who seem to make their own ends meet – political or otherwise.
# However, we are witness to riverbeds drying up and the icecaps melting and it’s hard to ignore how our planet is responding to human activity.
# The dilemma still continues whether global warming is a myth or earth’s way to respond to external stimuli. What do you say?

Calicut,
India
Whatever it is - be it warming or cooling - it is a fact that the nature is going to be punish human beings hard in coming days.

Avadhut said it correct, we humans have done a lot against nature and now nature would punish us. Global warming and global cooling, both are dangerous for the existence of earth.
How can you insist that global warming is a myth? Aint you able to feel it by seeing decreasing level of rivers in mountainous areas?
Of course there is an equal danger of global cooling. China has experienced its deadliest winter in a century. Canada, Siberia and Mongolia are facing the similar climate that can't be said as global warming.
What are you talking about??? Global warming is not a myth...it is real! The impact of Global warming is getting more and more evident day by day.
We are damaging our own planet, our home, our environment. The time is running out fast. It will be too late if we took much time in becoming 'selfless' because by that time the Arctic won't be more 'shelf less' then.
China and India are two of the world's biggest polluter countries. It's not just we Americans who need to change the lifestyle.
Global warming is not a myth. The Earth is getting hotter everyday because the Sun is burning more brightly than some 1,000 years ago.
Average global temperatures have gone up by about 0.2 deg Celsius in past 20 years. The years 1997, 1998 and 2002 were the hottest years since the year 1860 when the worldwide weather records were first collated.
Canada, Northern part of Russia and arctic area are the worst affected part of global cooling. China also felt it now.
Yes Global warming is just a myth. The last time when the sun had become inactive, the planet had suffered the little ice age and it ended in 1850 after about five centuries. This time it will go upto 10 centuries and destroy the species and crops across the world.
Let the experts fight, just invest time in saving environment to protect the earth. Its everyone's duty.
let us decide what is it Myth or Truth, then only we would start thinking how to protect the planet...
NO THIS IS TRUTH AND GLOBAL WARMING IS ALSO A TRUTH. NOTHING IS MYTH IN THIS CASE.
Global warming is a reality. It is the result of man’s abuse, misuse and overuse of the natural resources of the world.
Experts are simply guides who tell us the veracity of the damage. But before our very eyes, we see the products of environmental degradation and the scarcity of resources.
Anyone who says global warming is a myth is not a human being. Maybe, he belongs to the lowest kind of animals, where he is not endowed by rationality and intelligence.

Experts are there to fight with their concepts. people should start concentrating how to save planet from global warming.
I do agree with what Maynard has written here. How can one deny that there is no global warming by advocating the concept of global cooling?
Global warming is a reality...look around you, if you see how our seasons have changed...places which did not have rainfall for years, are witnessing floods, summer is becoming unbearably hot...we would be fools to think that it is a myth.
What I get from the question is something different from what others are getting. I think the author is asking - Is global warming a myth and global cooling a reality? No one is putting question against global warming. People are discussing global warming more than global cooling but both are dangerous for us.
I would prefer to repeat what Avadhut from India has written here and repeated by Sweta and Hemant. Excess warming and excess cooling both are dangerous.
Don't call it a myth. Countries are investing millions of dollars to restrict global warming. Come to Maldives, I will show you the impact of global warming in rising sea levels. We are living in dying islands.
OK call it a myth coming generation would abuse you for ignoring such kind of threat to life.
I have personally believed and have said in so many such discussions there and other places that I don’t believe in the school of thought that says we are inducing climate change.
In fact, there had been long period of chill periodically called Ice Age. We are lucky to be in between the period where the earth is enjoying relative warmth.
Global temperatures are maintained by oceanic currents and oceanographers will say that ocean current patterns change with time. It has happened before and it will happen again. The polar caps will melt first submerging many coastal nations. This has perhaps begun already and we can see a noticeable rise in global temperatures. However, this is a sure shot sign that we are advancing towards Ice Age now.
It is natural.

100 pc myth to plunder money and divert attention from real issues. but it is good. why? because it raises concerns abt pollutions and environment. so myth but good.
Those who call it as myth are conspiring to kill the only habitable planet we have. :-(
Do they think we are fools? It is NOT a myth but real threat and we have the power to stop it if we act NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Al Gore is a showman. After losing to Bush, he took on this cause and won the Nobel Prize.
Mynard:
i like your compassion for the cause. but scientific studies are inconclusive.

Give the earth a break to heal itself. Would you 'myth-busters'? This planet belongs to the future generations too................ keep that in mind!
This is a rich countries problem. What can Bangladesh or Maldives or Sri Lanka do? They are waiting for doom.
Myth?? You mean earth is getting hotter by itself? Is it closing in to the sun? You must be kidding. Haven't you heard of Greenhouse Effect? Oh God! This is a dangerous debate to have. Will pollute the minds of people.
First prove that GW is caused by greenhouse emissions. Then we can proceed from there. So far both theories are contested.
People who say this is a myth are US agents. US is the world's main culprit for global warming.
how boring........
dont ya guys have sumthing interesting to discuss.....
yawn!

RUBBISH!
IT'S TIME FOR AN EVOLUTIONARY CHANGE. DINOS HAD THEIR JOLLY GOOD TIME AND THEY WERE WIPED OUT DURING ICE AGE. NOW IT IS OUR TURN TO MAKE WAY FOR THE NEW SPECIES.
AS LONG AS YOU ARE ALIVE - PARTY :-D

Gotta be kiddin me! Are we still stuck with that dumb debate? Aren’t we done burying our heads in sands wishing the danger of Global Warming to disappear by itself?
Global Warming is a very real threat, one that seeks to obliterate the very existence of life itself on this planet. By promoting myths about Global Warming we are sinking deeper into the mire. Loosing out on time to combat the threat will be the final nail in Humanity’s coffin. Increasingly scientific evidence has been in favor of foretelling the specific dangers and the causes of the same.
If a Nobel Prize to agencies working towards establishing the truth behind Climate Change is not enough to dispel all the doubts, nothing ever will make us believers. And that’ll surely doom us...

The fact is the northern passage opened. The Himalayan glaciers are melting. This is global warming, man-made or natural.
Is it some kind of joke the scientists are playing on us? I mean going by logic and scientific theorems which we have studied so far, it is inevitable that global warming is for real. Besides, there is so much of a climatic change that we are forced to believe that this is a result of global warming indeed.
Hi the friend helped visited web I. By this I asked for permission from you, that I took the picture in web you to be despised by me in blog saya. because this picture was very interesting hatiku. terimaksih.
There were those who forgot this the address web I http://curhatmasdede.blogspot.com/2008/12/kelangkaan-gas-dan-ulah-manusia.html
