The earth is millions of years old. Things get hot then cold then hot then cold.

Im not saying we arent screwing with the earth , but think about it logically..

Like a real comparison would show what a normal change in 100 years would be compared to the hundred years now. ( of course this is impossible as we didnt have cameras back then )
Whether or not global warming is caused/fueled by humans, any sane person would agree to take extensive measures to try to stabilize the situation. Why wait until it may be too late? Even if we realize 50 years from now that there was nothing we could do to stop it, to me it would still have been worth it.

There is plenty of factual evidence that what we are doing is causing real harm to the environment. The fact that innuits in Greenland have breastmilk that by US standards is considered hazardous waste, is fucking sad. Innuits live by and for nature, they don't drive cars, they don't drive snowmobiles.

Keep on partying in your Hummer, God will surely come to your rescue.
