    The ice in the antarctic is growing, not the in the arctic.

    The theory is warmer moist air heading south has grown the ice sheets. Just a theory.

    Mankind will be fine, he may need to abandon his costal cities but its high time we decentralized the population anyway.

    That is an article that scientists have had 4 years to walk away from....

    The year 2013 tied with 1980 as the 37th warmest in 119 years of data for the contiguous 48 U.S. states,

    Sorry I had misread your post and thought you were saying the opposite of what you are saying. Even if the amounts of co2 release were equal we would be heavily contributing to the issue

    The whole of global warming is a theory that is wrong.

    Earth's climate has been changing since day one. It will continue to change regardless of what we do. I accept that human actively slightly affects the balance, but there is zero proof that human activity significantly affects it. All projections have failed.

    Reasonable scientists have agreed that man may cause warming up to 1 degree Celsius every 100 years since the Industrial Revolution. That is minor, and we will be off fossil fuels in under two generations. Unless the Luddites convince the policy makers that it isn't possible.

    Yes, "on record" being the key deceptive catch phrase used by AGW alarmists. It amounts to half a tick of the geological clock. If that.
