The "Global Warming would be good for us" thread.

[mkpdavies]

Even though the planet has changed temperatures throught history and humans have efficively sod all effect on that, let's pretend this isn't the case.

Let's pretend that the powers of voodoo are right and that us mighty humans are the big cause in the planet warming up now. It's our fault I tells ya, just believe me right. It's our fault and the planet will now take a course determined by us.

Mmmkay, now we are in that frame of mind, let us look at the effects of this global warming. Well now we diverge from the alamists and ecofascists and far from seeing doom, we see good for the planet. Indeed, thanks so us, the planet is in for unprecedented good things.

1. No more old people dying because of the cold.
2. Because the cold regions on the planet become warmer, there is no more clashes of cold and hot air. Extreme weather actually will start dying out.
3. Millions of poor people no longer have to find money for huge heating bills and homes can be made more cheaply.
4. Instead of going to Spain on holiday, Brits now can stay in the UK!
5. Britain now can grow more crops, more often.
6. co2 is a great fertiliser. The amount of plantlife increases and the quality of food increases too. This improves the whole food chain!
7. An ice age that was due in a few thousand years is cancelled. Millions of future people sen their thanks to their heroic ancestors.
8. http://www.divester.com/2005/06/21/g...ood-for-reefs/
Coral reef improves and the whole Ocean teams with more life than ever before.
9. Deserts become lush green and life giving heaven, as humidity goes up, combined with the super co2 firtalizer.
10. Shipping routes not open before, help increase trade between nations. The world rejoices that the cold icelands are no longer here.
11. Massive oilfields become available, that were once inaccessable. We can maintain this artificial boost in heating for many years more and by then technology means we can REALLY control the whole planets climate.
12. Everything is so nice that all people decide war sucks and we all live happily ever after.


There for I demand!

High taxation on homes that don't let out enough heat.
Zero taxation on 4x4's
Tax breaks for companies that have high life giving co2 emissions.
All gadgets only be allowed to be put in standby, not off.

Rejoice, rejoice, global warming will turn earth into paradise.

Let's not forget that more CO2 means less CO!

I don't think anyone has ever made such a claim.

A very interesting posting on the possible effects of global warming. I was reading a little earlier about the fact that the price of wholesale gas has fallen because of the UK having (so far) a 'mild' winter. The pressure is now on - particularly on British Gas - to cut their prices, and quickly.

If it's warmer, people save on the huge cost of heating bills (as in item 3, above).

As for number 10 above - if ice melts in a place like Greenland - that makes more land become available for farming or housing.

Number 11 (above) is a very good point.

Wrong again I am afraid. There are a **** load of alarmists that believe we are. E.G.

human activities are the main cause of contemporary global warming

And for this topic we are going to suspend sense, belief and logic to accept that they are right. Yes we are causing it all to happen.

But the good outways the bad. Bring it on!

I was replying to the EXACT statement you made.
But I agree. My wording should have been:
I don't think anyone credible has ever made such a claim.

Good to see you graciously accepting you were wrong again.

I hate to think what your idea of credible is. I can only believe you think you are the only source that is credible, going on your past posts.

How about 928 peer reviewed scientific papers?
But I don't suppose you would consider that more credibile than your own opinion.

Scientists used to believe that if you travelled faster than 20mph you would suffocate. They were wrong. Science can be wrong, fact. So what's changed?
