If pollution was the problem, wouldn't the holes in the ozone be over cities instead of over the uninhabited poles?
This is even wrong about what it's wrong about. Wow.

No.If pollution was the problem, wouldn't the holes in the ozone be over cities instead of over the uninhabited poles?
Look up something called 'the polar vortex', and how the the regions above the poles are isolated from the rest of the atmosphere.[FONT="]If pollution was the problem, wouldn't the holes in the ozone be over cities instead of over the uninhabited poles?[/FONT]
Clean Air Causing Global Warming?
James Joyner | Friday, July 11, 2008
It seems that the leading man-made cause of global warming is environmentalism; specifically, efforts to improve air quality by reducing pollution, New Scientist reports.
Since 1980, average air temperatures in Europe have risen 1 °C: much more than expected from greenhouse-gas warming alone. Christian Ruckstuhl of the Institute for Atmospheric and Climate Science in Switzerland and colleagues took aerosol concentrations from six locations in northern Europe, measured between 1986 and 2005, and compared them with solar-radiation measurements over the same period. Aerosol concentrations dropped by up to 60 per cent over the 29-year period, while solar radiation rose by around 1 watt per square metre (Geophysical Research Letters, DOI: 10.1029/2008GL034228). “The decrease in aerosols probably accounts for at least half of the warming over Europe in the last 30 years,” says Rolf Philipona, a co-author of the study at MeteoSwiss, Switzerland’s national weather service.Say Anything’s Piligrim finds this terrifically amusing: “Well now, there’s a moral dilemna for you. If we go back to eating roots and berries and living in pre-industrial all natural bliss, one with nature and all that, we might end up with a warmer planet than if we just went ahead and enjoyed ourselves.”
Of course, clean air is a good thing in and of itself. I was, however, under the impression that the rationale for getting rid of aerosols (or, more accurately, the hydroflourocarbons that propelled them) was because we thought they were destroying the ozone layer and thereby increasing harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun. It would be quite odd, indeed, if our solution to the problem yielded the same results in a different way.
Global Warming Science in Perspective.There is no scientifically valid mechanism for carbon dioxide creating global warming, because CO2 absorbs the limited radiation available to it in about ten meters (Heinz Hug). An increase in CO2 only shortens the distance, which is not an increase in temperature. Since scientists know this, a fake mechanism is contrived for the top of the troposphere based on thin spectrum shoulders. But again, an increase in CO2 only shortens the distance radiation travels, which does nothing significant to increase the temperature. And there is no explanation of how the supposed temperature increase at the top of the troposphere, which is very cold, can produce heat at ground level.
CO2 Charlatanism
Obviously a "Panel on Climate Change" has a "Climate Change" agenda. If there were a "Panel of no Climate Change" that would obviously have an agenda as well. The point is everyone has an agenda, everyone is working for money. There is a lot of money to be made through carbon taxing.After getting called for posting crap you decide to post more stuff rather than acknowledge what others have presented to you. This particular tactic is called Gallop gishing.
IPCC - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

1. Most scientists do not believe human activities threaten to disrupt the Earth’s climate.Pretty much what the scientific consensus says. Take it up with them.
A bit more gallop gishing I see. Why not post links to peer reviewed papers? Or is there no such support within the climate community for your conspiracy?Obviously a "Panel on Climate Change" has a "Climate Change" agenda. If there were a "Panel of no Climate Change" that would obviously have an agenda as well. The point is everyone has an agenda, everyone is working for money.

Global warming? - The Denver Post
The words "global warming" provoke a sharp retort from Colorado State University meteorology professor emeritus William Gray: "It's a big scam." And the name of climate researcher Kevin Trenberth elicits a sputtered "opportunist."
The Global Warming Scam!
Joe Coleman, perhaps the world's most famous meteorologist, the founder of the WEATHER CHANNEL, has called Globing Warming, " the greatest scam in history ." Here's a short summary of what he said in November of 2007:

Eight Reasons Why Global Warming Is a Scam
More than 17,000 scientists have signed a petition circulated by the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine saying, in part, there is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earths atmosphere and disruption of the Earths climate. (Go to Home - Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine for the complete petition and names of signers.) Surveys of climatologists show similar skepticism.
For Idea....here are some more straws to grasp.........
Another perfect example of someone who only sees what they want to see.
Interesting analysys of surveys of scientists. It shows, in my opinion that scientists are fallible like anyone else. Would research improve if it was built on biblical ethics? When 15% are willing to falsify data to get noticed, can we no longer wonder why evolution is promoted so hard? It looks like to me, whether or not their research is true, or their results show evolution or not it is reported as such because that gets the grants and papers published.
Next question for science lovers, is Ida a link to human or not? Maybe you aren't so sure now.
When explicitly asked if they ever fabricated or falsified research data, or if they altered or modified results to improve the outcome, between 0.3% and 4.9% of scientists replied affirmatively." "Consistently across studies, scientists admitted more frequently to have modified research results to improve the outcome than to have reported results they knew to be untrue
"When asked if they had personal knowledge of a colleague who fabricated or falsified research data, or who altered or modified research data between 5.2% and 33.3% of respondents replied affirmatively." Among research trainees in biomedical sciences at the University of California San Diego, 4.9% said they had modified research results in the past, but 15% were willing to select, omit or fabricate data to win a grant or publish a paper

9) Be a shotgun. Be prepared to make many, many points, as quickly as possible (the best are made by tactic #1, bald assertion). Try and pack as many bald assertions as you can in a single post. Don’t wait for your opponent’s response before making your next several assertions. You don’t want to get into a point-by-point debate. By the time your evolutionist opponent has explained why your first assertions are erroneous, you will have focused your audience’s attention on subsequent assertions. This allows you to completely ignore your opponent’s rebuttal, and has the added benefit that if your opponent is unable to quickly respond to ALL of your assertions, you can claim that he/she is “dodging” your arguments.
one question for those who believe global warming is a sham.
if methane isnt the reason for global warming then how come when you fart the chair gets warmer?
