Why do you start a website that suggest that a rise of six degrees is likely? Haven't you read the IPCC reports? Why are you frightening your audience?

Hello, it sounds like this will be a good special answering many of the questions I have. In particular questions about the temperature data from the GISP and Volstok ice core samples which are the two most studied ice cores samples from both the northern and southern hemispheres. For example the GISP temperature graph shows the temperature has been constant in the northern hemisphere for the last 800 years with a .5 degree C rise in the last 100 years as Al Gore and others use to prove man made global warming, but they stop there not showing you the entire graph going back 20,000 years. If you look beyond 800 years it shows the temperature rose 1 degree C higher 1000 years ago, 2 degrees C higher 2000 years ago and 3 degrees C higher 3300 years ago, I hope you will explain why the world did not flood 3300 years ago for example. Another question is in reguards to the Volstok temperature data over the last 800 years where it shows the southern hemisphere has experience 3 major temperature swings of 2.5 degrees Celsius despite CO2 being constant. The last one is I am hoping you can explain why these two ice cores samples show a the trend where when the temperature goes up in one hemisphere it goes down in the other and vice versa, why? And is this not happening today as the ice pack in the southern hemisphere has increased 8% since 1978? I am really hoping your show explains these basic questions instead of picking and choosing from the temperature data like Al Gore and others do.

Tipping points are being met.

To surive, property 200 feet above sea level as we know know it and photovoltaics.

This show has the same scare tactic crap as all the other shows of this type. Guess what happens when you raise CO2 a few 100 ppm in the lab? Nothing, as it takes hundreds of times to make an impact. This show ignores past ice core data that show the norm is for the temperature to swing wildly as much as 3 degrees C over a few 100 years with the exception of the GISP data the last 800 years where the temperature was abnormally low and constant in just the northern hemisphere. The ice core data over the last 20,000 years shows clearly that temperature change is the norm, but this fact is ignored so shows like this can obtain ratings through preaching predicted doom and gloom.

Why are you people above, so negative? Maybe if you stop whining and criticizing others, the world will become better place. Maybe if someone listens and dose things, things will get better. The show was EXCELLENT! It is a frickin awakening, what can happen! Above all, Earth will always cure itself, Earth will stay, and we humans, we will disappear! Above all," If dogs don't go to heaven when they die, I want to go where they go" M. Twain

I wish there was more time spent on educating people on what to do, and what kind of lifestyle changes need to be made to make a difference. People have to be made aware that each of us contributes to GHG enissions, and that all the small things we do as individuals can and does add up. Do a documentatary on how to change your footprint. It is not enough to just scare us--show us how to change--really show us, not just mention a few examples.

I hate Witer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a good show. Alarmist in tendencies, yes, but it still served its purpose. We are so complacent and unwilling to do away with any comfort or convenience at all that alarmist prophecies are what it takes to motivate people.
It is true, the earth have gone through ice ages and warm spells for millenia, and it will continue to do so. But let's not forget, those climate changes also wiped out the prevailing species of those times. If, in fact, the earth is in a naturally occurring warming trend, you can not argue that we are exacerbating it, and at our own peril.
Conversely, science believes that warming and cooling on the earth has historically been related to a number of factors, including wobbles in earth's orbit, changing from circular (warmer) to slightly elliptical (cooler). Frighteningly, we are at an orbital point where the Earth's orbit is becoming slightly more elliptical. We SHOULD be getting cooler.

That show was really good. I wish they would teach people how to make Earth better. The northern pole is like 1 mile deep....200 feet. Also green land is about 20ft deep...That will be a lot of water and buildings will get submerged!

I think that the earth is just going though more changes, and yes spieces have been wiped out but maybe our turn is near. I don't think that all of our recycling has changed much to the planet. One million years worth of car pollution is about as much as one volcanic eruption. The earth isn't changing because of us, it's just going though another change that might or might not effect us. We should stop trying to out smart mother nature and go with what is being done.

Am I the only one that has seen this show and can't believe the sight of seeing a Nuclear Plant's cooling tower having steam coming out from the top, and yet the narrator speaking about global warming from industrial pollution as if STEAM is pollution. And the program did his example over and over again. If your going to spread propaganda, at least get it right.

I think its true and I'm scared

I think that our world is changing rapidly beneath our feet, but we're too incompetent to realize how much danger we are truly in. If society was open-minded enough to realize what will happen if we keep turning away from the issues, there wouldn't need to be shows and blogs and other things that force people to open their eyes and face what's happening.

The Earth sure is very unique and in general, it now has been the focus of ecological pronostication which may impact domestic, and wild life which exists and permaneces on it's heavenly body. In my opinion, a lot of attention is directed to the Earth's balance of weather entities, instead of its inhabitants assuming they're role and thier possibility and probability of the consequence's We'll endure on the planet Earth not that the planet will have the problems... In reality We'll suffer not the planet. And last, We' have made inate progress in the last two centuries with our irrelentless pursue of innovation without any due to something so volitile and now out of our control or barely in our control such as interuppting the balance of natures cycles for our own personal commodity's and growth: so now we have serious issues to confront yet it seems that we still refuse to let go of our proneness to fault as we con't to ignore the reality of the situations, as was done by the generations before us, and we are still accustomed to some evolved standards which are careless in all; or its not just our mind sets and lack of trustworthyness of one another for the remedial efforts for the forseeable outlook when factors don't change which we know it is the evident contributor and stalls the resolution. Honesty , trust , and sincerity will be key towards replenishing Our Earth and resolving Our Problems which won't cause complications of gradeur of which will impede our ability of implementing actions of measurable results soon after.If we become aware then we don't have to fear. A great sacrifice by all must be made if we are going to accomplish replenishment of what we've realized or have admitted to ourselves or others, that is: that the folks before our time didn't have any way, nor any idea how sensitively areas of development would have an impact upon the eco-systems generations later or what it is that we brought upon ourselves and was a stupid mistake of enormous proportions to our own dismay. We're going to have to assume accountability for the measures which may be ultimately for our only refuge so that our permanessence generations from now can endeavor without the degrees' of problems we have yet to have become parts of our destiny which we can be responsible for effectively restoring...

global warming causes ice ages right? well that means that all the other ice ages were caused by global warmings before our time. they were caused by volcanos witch cause more greenhouse gasses than 10000 cars ever could. so if thats true, then even if we stop using pollutional cars the volcanos will make an ice age anyway. so why dont we speed it up and get the next ice age over and done with? the quicker we get it done the quicker we can get rid of the pollutional cars and start to bring out the hydrogen engines for everyone. and plus we could get rid of the hell hole we live in now and start again.it would be for the best i think.

Matt i know what ya mean but i still think ur a retard. Getting the ice age over with quicker means we r all gonna die!!! Volcanoes dont even matter right now because if you look at history the last ice age happened 10,000 years ago so that means we r good for another 10,000 IF we stop the warming now. Im in 6th grade(u got notin on my age:p) but im smart enough to knw that if we stop wit the pollution then kids my age wont grow up in the hell of the earth that we will live in if we dont do anything
