Climate Change is a real issue

The War of 1812 was a conflict fought between the United States and its allies, And the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and its allies. It began when the United States declared war in June 1812, And ended mostly in the situation as it existed before the war when a peace treaty agreed to earlier was ratified by the United States in February 1815. Historians in Britain often see it as a minor theatre of the Napoleonic Wars, While historians in North America see it as a war in its own right; it can be considered part of the American Indian Wars and Sixty Years' War. From the outbreak of war with Napoleonic France in 1803, Britain had enforced a naval blockade to choke off neutral trade to France, Which the United States contested as illegal under international law; to man the blockade, Britain pressed merchant sailors into the Royal Navy, Including Americans. American sentiment grew increasingly hostile toward Britain due to incidents such as the 1807 Chesapeake"Leopard affair, And the British were outraged by the 1811 Little Belt affair. [10] Britain supplied arms to Native Americans, Who raided European-American settlers on the American frontier, Hindering the expansion of the United States and provoking resentment. [11] Although the debate on whether the desire to annex some or all of British North America (Canada) contributed to the American decision to go to war, The reasoning for invasion was mainly strategical. [12] President James Madison signed into law the declaration of war after heavy pressure from the War Hawks in the United States Congress. [13] Federalist opposition to the War of 1812 in the United States affected its prosecution, Especially in New England, Where it was referred to as "Mr. Madison's War". With most of its army in Europe fighting Napoleon, Britain adopted a defensive strategy, With offensive operations initially limited to the border and the western frontier, With help from its Native American allies. American military defeats at the Siege of Detroit and the Battle of Queenston Heights thwarted attempts to seize Upper Canada, Improving British morale. American attempts to invade Lower Canada and capture Montreal also failed. [14] In 1813, The United States won the Battle of Lake Erie, Gaining control of the lake and defeating Tecumseh's Confederacy at the Battle of the Thames, Thereby defeating Britain's largest Native American ally, A primary war goal. The Americans made a final attempt to invade Canada, But the Battle of Lundy's Lane during the summer of 1814 was fought to a draw. At sea, The powerful Royal Navy blockaded American ports, Cutting off trade[15] and allowing the British to raid the coast at will. In 1814, The British burned Washington, But the Americans later repulsed British attempts to invade New York and Maryland, Ending invasions from Canada into the northern and mid-Atlantic states. In early 1815, After a peace treaty had been signed, But before this news had reached the Americas, The United States defeated the British Army near New Orleans, Louisiana. [16] Fighting also took place in West Florida, Where a two-day battle for the city of Pensacola ended in Spanish surrender. [17] In Britain, There was mounting opposition to wartime taxation and merchants lobbied for the resumption of trade with the United States. With the abdication of Napoleon, Britain's war with France ended and Britain stopped impressment generally. This made moot the issue of American sailor impressment and removed one of the original causes of the war. The British then increased the strength of their blockade of the United States coast which had a crippling effect on the American economy. [15][18] Peace negotiations began in August 1814 and the Treaty of Ghent was signed on 24 December 1814. The treaty was unanimously ratified by the United States Senate on 17 February 1815, Ending the war with no boundary changes[19][20] except for the disposition of some islands in Passamaquoddy Bay, An issue that was resolved after the war. [21] A popular view is that "[e]verybody's happy with the outcome of the war. Americans are happy because they think they won, The Canadians are happy because they know they won and avoided being swallowed up by the United States, And the British are happiest because they've forgotten all about it";[22] although indigenous nations are generally seen among historians as the real losers. News of the peace finally reached the United States in February 1815, About the same time as news of the victory at New Orleans;[23] Americans triumphantly celebrated the restoration of their national honour, Leading to the collapse of anti-war sentiment and the beginning of the Era of Good Feelings, A period of national unity. [24] While Britain quickly forgot about the war, Nationalistic mythology around it took hold in both the United States and Upper Canada. Both the restoration of honour and the "Second War of Independence" are important themes in American historiography and are considered important results by historians. [25][26][27] The failure of the invasion of British Canada advanced the evolving concept of Canadian identity and of Canada as a distinct region that would continue to evolve into a nation.

climate change is fake

While you do have a point, it doesn't make sense. The American people tend to turn a blind eye to the topics that they are not interested. If the warming is not happening, how do you explain the strange temperature jumps that have occurred over the past few years? Also, why would the icebergs and polar caps be melting if there was no cause? As I have said, the American people won't focus on something if it isn't interesting or food. So the media spotlight drifted off to Oak Island and the Alaskan Gold Rush TV shows. The people don't care about it, so they don't pay attention. There's also something for you to think on. What happens to the chemicals that are emitted when gasoline and fuel burn? What happens when an oil rig goes down in flames, releasing hundreds of gallons of chemicals into the oceans? Coca-Cola can remove the rust of your car's bumper, what happens to all of those fumes? It's been proven that breathing in the burning chemicals poisons you, so where do the chemical fumes go?

The big lie of climate change

Can you prove that they are wrong? No, since they are already happening right now over in Africa where it is hard for africans to make a living off the land and deserts across the world are already expanding, temperatures fall drastically over a long period of time in Winter and rise drastically over a long period of time in the summer. Have you looked at this year and saw that is was still 80 degrees in March and April?

The big lie of climate change

I can prove it, just wait a 100 years. And I can prove god: Kill yourself and see if you go in front of god in the after-life.

The big lie of climate change

If the world rises by: (in F) 1.8 degrees; stronger hurricanes, flooding in Northern Europe. (around Netherlands) 3.6 degrees; Shanghai will be submerged, Heat waves across Europe, Glaciers feeding India's rivers melt causing flooding, Plants become heat stressed, emitting CO^2 rather than storing it causing the Global warming process to speed up, forest fires, drying riverbeds 5.4 degrees; The Amazon Rain Forest, Also called the lungs of the world since it produces 10% of the world's oxygen, is killed off by a combination of of drought and fire. It demise release huge amounts of CO^2 into the atmosphere. Elsewher, billions starve as crop yields dwindle. Swathes of Africa, India, and China are now wastelands. Around 80% of the Aric Sea ice has melted and would raise global sea levels up by 84 feet. Submerging many low land countries like Bangledesh. 7.2 degrees; sea levels rise 3 feet year causing Britain to be a bunch of small islands. Florida and many other parts of the U.S. is submerged under water. Dessertification causes people in the Mediterranean to abandoned. In northern latitudes, the melting of permafrost increases raises sea levels yet furthur. 9.0 degrees; All rain forests are all now deserts and all ice has been melted causing sea levels to be more than 197 ft than it is now. Migrant Populations spread across the world in search of food 10.8 degrees; As oceans get warmer they can't support marine life, Stagnant seas release hydrogen sulfide that poisons the land. If flammable methane is ignited (by like lightning), huge firballs sweep across the land, causing more loss of life. Source: Talk Nerdy To Me copyright 2013 DK

Sustainable Development And Climate Change

Not until the spread of the Industrial Revolution in the late nineteenth century, has man possessed the ability to adversely alter, on a global scale, the geologic and climatic cycles that have existed for millennia. Planet earth, which man calls home, is approximately 5 billion years old. The science of paleontology tells us that man is a relative new comer to the planet. Modern man did not arrive on the scene until approximately 10,000 to 15,000 years ago. Developments in hunting, agriculture, literacy, and the sciences, have allowed man to thrive and inhabit nearly every corner of the planet. However, this success has not been good for the earth. The world's population has recently surpassed 6 billion and the developed countries community models and lifestyles are not sustainable. Due to rapid, unrestrained growth, housing, shopping, and entertainment construction has spread across the surface of the planet like an oil slick. We are depleting resources and altering ecosystems at an alarming rate. Only now are we beginning to comprehend the long-term effects of more than a century of environmental ignorance, neglect, and apathy.
