People need to understand just how balanced but fragile the ecosystem is and how fragile and critical the earth's atmosphere is and how neither is indestructible. Their loss would create a domino effect that would kill the earth. When I say kill the earth I mean that ALL living things would die making it a dead planet like Mars.
You would have to be an idiot to think that mankind can't make the earth uninhabitable.

1. Where in my text that you quoted did I talk about ANYTHING cyclical.
2. What you quoted was in reference to the thought process of humans, ie. religion, need for end of world prophecies, etc.
3. The earth DOES go through cycles and it is FACT. We are able to know what climates were like over 1,000's upon 1,000's of years through ice or soil core data.
4. No where did I mention that man COULD NOT make the earth uninhabitable. But as of today there is no conclusion one way or the other that man is at this time having any affect at all. There are scientist crying on both sides of the fence. It is a matter of ONLY making up your mind who to believe as it is clear YOU are not a scientist or even uneducated on the subject outside of documentaries. These emails shed a harmful light on scientist who claim global warming is a real threat.
5. I have always been of the opinion that we NEED to stop polluting when we have the technology for safer means of energy. Unfortunately greed seems to put that on the slow track.
