Average global temperature

Finally someone has come out with a solid argument on the global temperature nonsense. There have been many different debates, that I know of, either for or against whether or not there is an temperature increase on the Earth. But, if anyone who has taken any sort of science or math class and that person sat down to really think about an average global temperature, common sense says it would be impossible. The only linking factor in the data is that they are temperatures, when Earth is made up of innumerable factors all adding up to what we call ecosystems. As Andresen says "A temperature can be defined only for a homogeneouse system." It is like comparing Houston's climate to Chicago, or on a bigger scale Europe to Austrailia. These four places will have some similarities but that does not mean they are the same and can not be compared.

Rising interests

There are 6 billion people in the world and each has a different point of view on corresponding issues, such as global warming. Those who are in the media business like to get as much "information" out to the public to keep them "informed" , as they call it. When really it's more of a job of entertainment. If it's a story that will keep you listening no matter how unbelievable, that means they have viewers, and accordingly are still in business. Now as the public you really have two choices, you take everything on the news at face value or you can take a few minutes of your time and do some research. Sometimes its your own common sense on some issues that will help find out the truth.
