Loaded question!!!
How can I vote when the correct answer isn't one of the multiple choices!!! Your question presumes that "Climate Change" is actually real!!! It's all rubbish. Your magazine is still a vehicle for propaganda that will cost tax payers billions. You need to start thinking about how you are going to backtrack on your "Climate Change" stance because when it all comes out in the wash and the rest of the world realises that it's rubbish you will have to print a huge "Sorry, we were wrong!" on the front cover of Cosmos." I can't wait to e-mail Wilson and ask him how he feels after it all. He will be eating humble pie... after he scrapes the egg off his face! Ha ha ha ha! I can't wait!!!
Best wishes,
James
Al Gore changes his tune!!! New national "Sorry Day" needed.
Hey Cosmos, why don't you get Rudd the Dudd to say sorry for you in Canberra!!! Climate Change is B.S. Even Al Gore has is now blaming soot instead of carbon dioxide!!!! He's changing his story!!! I say give back the Oscar Al!!! Your movie is a pack of lies!!!! (and that's what it is -- a movie -- a fictional story. It's NOT a documentary.)
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!
Climate Change
Have you noticed ther weather lately!!!!!
climate change
Our planet has been through changing climate cycles on many occasions.It is quite possible that earth has a long term automatic cleansing program built in to get rid of dangers to itself. In such a case, the human race became the danger by upsetting the balance of nature. Can you blame the planet for wanting to get rid of us so it can then slowly recover from its human inflicted wounds? The only crisis involved is the survival, or not, of humanity and that's of no great importance in the scheme of things. My bet is on an ultimate war between the rats and the cockroaches next time around.Let's hope one of them deserves the planet.

Yes, it's called Summer!!! -- It's warmer than Winter!!!
Yes, it's called Summer -- it's warmer than Winter or didn't you notice? It's just the same as when I was a kid. No difference!!!
It's called Summer. It's warmer than Winter.
Summer is warmer than winter -- or haven't you noticed?
You are WRONG!!
James,
Firstly, your statements show that apart from being a complete moron, you have no understanding of the planets systems and how the climate of this planet actually works.
Secondly, you say that climate change isnt occuring but all over the world there are signs that things are going terribly wrong, animals going extince (when the shouldnt have been, oceans warming up AND NOT COOLING DOWN!!!)
You have all this energy to critisise other people, why not go and do some reading and research into global warming and you might just find that you are completely wrong and that you owe everyone an appology.
Mate, grow up, learn how to deal with situaltions and look into a topic before you make a statement about it.
Oh, and just for the record, im a university student, majoring in environmental science, so i do have a basic understanding into what im talking about.
Aj
Learn to spell Aj!!! P.S. You are the one that is WRONG!!! Ha ha
Aj, you are a typical uni student who's so far up his own arse that you can't see the light of day. You are the one who needs to do the research pal. The British "climate scientists" have fudged the figures or have you not noticd this breaking news story??? Global waming is B.S. Even the New Zealand scientists have admitted to fudging the figures.
By the way, you need to learn how to spell -- and your grammar is pathetic for a uni student. Go back to primary school and learn how to spell e.g.
isnt is spelled isn't.
extince is spelled extinct
critisise is spelled criticize (American) or even criticise (British)
appology is spelled apology
situaltions is spelled situations
i is spelled I -- it's a captital letter you MORON!!!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You will all be aplogizing to me and the other intelligent people of the world when you realize you are all WRONG about "climate change"!!!
Ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Believe what you will...
I admit that i can't spell and that my grammar is not top of the standards but what i would like to point out is that just because you dont believe that global warming isn't happening, doesn't make you right.
I admit some people are over the top with regards to how bad things are going to be but it is still happening and if you can't see that then there is something wrong.
I am sick and tired of the peanut gallery saying stuff about things they don't have the first idea about. If you spent more time actually looking into EVERY bit of reasearch done on the topic (yes I am on my way to doing that, already read over 1500 articles and journals on the topic), you would come to realise, just as I have, that even with the "fudged" figures, our planet is on a slipery slope and the only organism that can help is us.
Please just open your mind a little, I can see where you are coming from and how with the "Evidence" you have got, can come up with the ideas you have, but if you actually looked into the topic, not just "Global Warming", but into things like "Average Global Temperatures", "Ice Melts" and "Ocean Acidification", you will see that there is alot more going on than you realise.
I'm not here to fight anymore, i am sick and tired of trying to convince people that will not even listen to reason.
I just hope that someday soon we all realise the mistake we have made.

Climate change SCIENTISM
Whatever happened to real science? First we have the scientism promoted by Darwinian fundamentalists like Richard Dawkins and co, who actually believe that vastly complex lifeforms with highly sophisticated biological systems, and highly regulated interconnected subsystems complete with timers, message carriers, regulators, feedback loops etc is actually the result of chance mutations and a blind mindless natural selection mechanism, which has absolutely no overall perspective to know where everything is evolving to, or even why. Yet, ultimately produces a co-dependent environment of finely balanced inter-dependent ecosystems. Get real!
Little wonder that many of us increasingly feel that scientists have gone barking mad. Which is why a sizable percentage of the public now have serious reservations about Global warming. Which likewise seems largely based on presuppositions, inferences, assumptions, conjecture, explanations or speculations. Not only are the “inferences” underlying global warming increasingly suspect, but seem inconsistent with a wide range of observations. This widespread public distrust of global warming ideology is now increasingly shared by scientists themselves, with a growing consensus that current interpretations goes beyond the data, and is more about scientism, than real empirically based science.
