There are some that take issue with those deniers.

It's easy to see what is going on and will continue to go on.....money and ignorance will make global warming another tax on society. It's just a matter of time. It may be next year it may be 10 years away but the constant pressure on elected officials and the fact that as new officials are elected they will be more sympathetic to the cause because they have been bombarded with it for 20-30 years as they went to college and grew up with it. I used my example of healthcare before and it fits here as well. At some point people give in and say ok I'm done fighting.....then after it's some sort of law/tax people will see opposing opinions from the MSNBC, CNN networks because they are pissed at how much money is being taken from their pay checks. It's a cycle of stupidity that never ends....Americans are led by the nose to slaughter on so many issues.

People's ignorance is something to behold. The people making all the money are the Coal and Oil People who are holding onto a dying energy resource. What other's make is insignificant compared to the people in the fossil fuel industry. And the green energy companies are not pumping out toxins into the ground water, land and air that kills people. So how can you say what you say with a straight face?

Global Warming is caused by human activity. They are the tax on society not the result of their greed. And the Fossil Fuel industry pays out big bucks to mislead the public about what they do and the problems they are causing. As time goes by it becomes harder and harder to extra the coal from the earth. The Coal Companies will have to dig even deeper and it will be much more expensive in the future to dig coal out of the ground. The oil will dry up eventually and today we have to crack the ground to extra oil and gas. Those cracks allow the oil and gas to mix with the ground water that people need to survive. Some people have gas coming out of their water faucets that can be lit on fire.

You are right in that there is a tax on society right now. It a tax that people are paying with their health and welfare to try to stay alive and avoid the pollution caused by the fossil fuel industry. Anyone that denies that burning coal and oil is not creating excessive air pollution needs to be educated.

i agree.
how did al gore make his millions? it certainly wasn't from working.

Fake news. Al Gore's money is not causing Global Warming. Burning fossil fuels is the problem. Your shooting the messenger

i've got a different view on global warming. it has to be caused from something outside our atmosphere. the few meteors that make it in, can't bring enough matter to change much here. all the carbon has been in our atmosphere since the beginning. it seems to me our atmosphere is a closed environment with a finite set of elements. if we release some of them by burning, the elements just change to some other combination of elements for a while. all of the oil and gas we're using was created by something made of carbon in some other form. so there is more carbon dioxide in the air. if you prius drivers would worry about stopping them from cutting down jungles and forests instead of my classic car, carbon dioxide levels would balance out. global warming is caused by the sun. nothing we can do is powerful enough to cause it.

"Scientists say rising global temperatures are likely to increase the intensity and impact of major storms. Last year was the Earth's warmest year on record for the third year in a row, NOAA reported."

Above or the very top comment has some good ideas. The trouble is that when CO2 or Carbon and Oxygen are buried under the ocean and the earth it's not trapping the solar energy. Normally solar energy enters our atmosphere and then radiates back out again. But the increased levels of CO2 Gas in the atmosphere is trapping the sun's energy and keeping it from radiating back out into space. Burning the forests and burning fossil fuels is releasing the Carbon that was tied up in the ground or trees and putting more of it into the atmosphere in the form of CO2 gas.
