Can we all agree that we get one Earth, and we should do our utmost to keep it clean?

I agree. But we are spending way too much time, money and effort on preventing just harmless CO2 from entering the atmosphere while many more actual harmful substances are being pumped out.

I'm all for restricting harmful pollution but CO2 ain't it. Cutting CO2 output is not likely to change anything one way or the other.

some have a perspective, and terror, of the consequences of changing our enviroment

i love all these graphs pointing out 'warmer tempatures are normal', but those temperatures came with fucking lizards 42 feet long weighing upwards of 7.5 tonnes. :1orglaugh

with the current animal activities going on, elephants, catfish, god damn jelly fish, this is our wake up call.

'"The time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men."'

Hows the battle against the pine beetles going?

And what would the impact be if permafrost could not be permanently frost any more?

if any americans live in these areas and read this.. freak out now.

two drives through my province, one at 17 and again at 25.. first was was home, lush, green and forest, the second was like a scene out of a horror movie

:1orglaugh

I can't argue against that. And the reason those animals were able to grow so big was because of the abundance of food that was able to grow in such a warm climate.

But more recently it was warmer at the height of the Roman Empire and then again during the Medieval Warm Period - when the Vikings were able to colonize Greenland.

:thumbsup It Worked!

7 billion bags of mostly water is a pretty good target ;)

You won't belvie shit until Miami is underwater I guess. Let me ask you do you believe in god?

Curbing our global warming/change contributions isn't going to stop elephants, catfish, jellyfish or anything from dying off... that isn't why they are dying off.

We've had hotter temp's within the last few hundred years, let alone a few 1000 - however in that time, it's been much colder too.

Miami has been under water before and it's has not been a swamp before..... and the ice caps melting, wont put Miami under water.

i was referencing a cracked article regarding how our choices have impacted our environment and the species we live with

for example, the article gave a bunch of data on how for thousands of years elephants and humans lived side by side, but now the 'outcasts' from our rampant burning of their territory and the murder of their societies has started to create 'animal armies'

herds of male outcasts that do nothing but kill villagers, destroy villages, and crops. and of course, themselves. Sound familiar?

they will go out of their way to do this.

Food for thought.

seems to be the case. :1orglaugh

hell down here in Louisiana BP fucked up the bayous before any global warming got a chance!

we are doomed either way. lol

I've started using aerosol deodorant again.

I wish it would get warmer around here. I don't like winter anymore.

colder winters are a side effect of global warming? You got me!
