Global Warming - A myth?

Our good old earth is really old - A whopping 4.5 billion years! Adding 20,000 years (the estimated time since man first came on earth) to 4.5 billion is equivalent to adding a huge amount to infinity! Its still going to remain the same. Arite, what am I getting to??

Its basically this: The total time-span of man's existence on earth is thoroughly insignificant when compared to the life of the earth! Now, how significant can 50 years be in such a huge time-span?? Yupp, you got the answer buddy! "Insignificant to the insignificant"

This is precisely what the green-house gases released by humans, mean to the earth - I.N.S.I.G.N.I.F.I.C.A.N.T!! Ever since the earth came into existence, it has constanly been subject to climatic changes. We've had periods with temperatures reaching thousands of kelvin, to periods where temperatures have gone down to the lowest on the negative scale! It augurs well with the popular saying "Change is the only thing thats permanent"

According to chaos theory, "Climate CANNOT be predicted", as it does not follow any form of linear or perceivably complex equations! It JUST CANNOT be predicted...P.E.R.I.O.D
However, we have our loyal researchers and environmentalists predicting a global temperature rise of 4-5 degrees by the end of the century! For all you know, the sun's magnetic cycle can reverse itself, thereby causing a complete change in the behaviour each and every atom on earth, leave alone the climate! (It is a strongly believed idea that the sun's magnetic cycle influences the pattern of weather, though no-one has modelled how)

Now, lets come to the main point: Humans, in the last 50 years have been accused of altering the entire climatic balance of earth. The emission of excessive green-house gasses is said to be the major cause of this. Everything put together has been termed "Human-induced Global Warming"! I'm pretty sure, 99% of the common-men at least have an increasing urge to believe its true.

Firstly a few facts to clear out the half-baked truths:
1. 99% of the Green House effect is caused due to Water Vapour, and NOT due to CO2 as most people think

2. The total amount of CO2 present in the atmosphere is between a mere 0.3-0.4%!!

3. The increase in the amount of CO2 is still counted in ppm (parts per million), just to project it in big numbers!!

So, how-much-ever CO2 we humans release into the atmosphere, it will take another couple of hundred years for it to even go beyond the 0.45% mark - an increase that doesnt even deserve to be called insignificant!! :) So, what is all this fuss about?? Read on...

Global Warming research is considered to be the highest money-grosser for research grants all over the world...all the conferences, work-shops, models, simluations...billions of dollars...
So, it's actually an open secret among the scientists that "Global Warming CANNOT be proved"...cos, thats climate for you guys...UNPREDICTABLE!

So, these scientists obviously worry about jeopardizing their grants if they opt to reveal the truth! This is the exact reason why The US of A is refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol...cos, it knows CO2 is of no threat! Or at least, has not proven to be one...

As a final thought-provoker...just think about it guys...logically...all the several changes brought about on earth over billions of years, being undone by a mere 50-years of human activities?? FUNNY, to say the least!
