    If global warming had anything to do with cancer it is pretty selective

    Question: What do many reasonable people doubt science?

    Answer: We don't doubt science. We doubt that scientists are practicing science.

    Having worked in statistics, although not my field it was part of my job. It was well known that stats can be skewed and only represent that view for one day and even made to make things seem a little better.

    I have got an open mind about global warming and the environment and prepared to view both sides. My rule of thumb.

    Make a list, and use the pros and cons rule.

    So far for me that cons are outstripping the pros.

    Time will tell.

    Anyway about time @Patsy Faye added a thought as she raised the point about the Great Barrier Reef. I was just commenting on that thread. Nice to hear your views Patsy :):)

    You seem to have forgotten the UK Ken. The reason treatments have improved

    This is where I worked in Wales

    This is my 4th post

    @Martin Alonzo - interesting to see the highest rate of cancers are in built up areas

    One of the things that I have been reading about the antarctic region is that some places are getting a whole lot MORE ice than before, but the western part is actually where it is melting.
    A few years back, they sent a special ice-breaker ship to Antarctica with scientists that were going to go there and study global warming. The ship went in the summer, which was when they should have been able to get in the closest to the area that they wanted to reach.
    Instead, they ran into ice well before they expected any, and became stuck in the ice. I think that it was Australia that sent in another ship to rescue them, and that ice-breaker ship was also trapped there as the ice expanded, and they were trapped before they could even get as far as the first ship had gone.
    Finally, Russia sent in a ship, which managed to free both of the other two ships and they all made it back to safety.

    However, on the west part of Antarctica, there are several underwater volcanoes, and these volcanoes have been active for the last several years, which warms up the water, and also helps to break up the glaciers from underneath the ice.
    This is why some parts of the ice are melting and other parts are increasing.

    It took me a while to find this information again; but I wanted to share this with everyone who is concerned about climate change. There are people who study the sun and its cycles, and they base their predictions on what has happened before with the sun. One such person is NASA scientist, John Casey.
    I first heard this man speak on the Caravan to Midnight, which is John B. Wells online radio program. He spoke for around 2 hours, as I remember, and I don't have the link for that podcast; but I do have this shorter interview that John Casey did with Newsmax Television.
    He says that we are headed into a mini ice-age which will last until around 2050. The last time we were in this solar minimum was back in the 1600-1700 hundreds, and that was what caused the famines almost worldwide, the most well-known of which is probably the potato famine in Ireland.
    According to Casey, the sun cycles through periods of heating and cooling, called the solar minimum and solar maximum. We have been in the last one of the solar maximum periods but we are now cooling down again.
    He has written a book about this , called Dark Winter, if you are interested in learning more about his theories. There are also some longer videos on youtube where John Casey has given more in-depth interviews about the sun cycles.

    @Yvonne Smith - thanks for the info - interesting
    I think I'll accept the oddities of it all, no use worrying about it, there's not a lot I can do about it anyway :)
