        there is this intimidating term used to describe the issue called "global warming" which within the context of the discussion implies that the climate should remain constant or that no warming should be occuring naturally.

        the simple fact is that there is no widespread agreement on whats happening, why, what degree of change is natural, what isn't etc.... BUT at the end of the day, you only get continued research funding, grants and attention for scaring people. scientific research is just as biased as anyone in their political views and that bias often occurs out of financial necessity.

        That, my friends, is the only truly intelligent post in this entire thread.

              A few economies will collapse, but we already have the technology for other methods of transportation

              Duracel will be raking in the cash instead of the oil companies, haha.

                I did watch that movie 2 weeks ago and spended my whole weekend on that subject then. I have ordered 10 copies for my employees and will send out more to my friends. Hopefully this way more people will understand our environmental problems and see that there is so much more in this world then only money.

                2 things from the movie who hit me most were:
                - the balance with on 1 side the gold bars and the other side our earth
                - the ice bear who couldn't find ice to rest/life on anymore

                I'm sure we humans can really still change everything, but have to act much and much faster than what we did now. And people have to use their brains. And certainly stop with fucking ! We already have much too much people on this planet!

                          it's REALLY worth it.


                          basically it says temp increases are a direct result to CO2 inclreases and has data to prove it - and it gets SCARRY
                          is that what ended the ice age?

                                What I love is the only people speak out against global warming are paid by oil companies and the righties dont see this as weird. Like its a attack to drive more fuel efficient cars and not be wasteful. If you dont want to think green,you want to end terrorism, get off oil.We dont use oil anymore, we wouldnt be involved in the middle easts problems.

                                  The truth is that we are guests on this planet and we have been here long enough to gauge what the weather is really like.
                                  Hmm I like your contrarian approach, but wouldn't that mean that whenever a bunch of scientists alarm us about anything in the future we can just dismiss it and say it's non-sense and there's a "natural cause"?

                                  - Mass fish dying in continental rivers in the 70s
                                  - Forests dying rapidly in early 80s due to "sour" rain from sulphuric emissions
                                  - Smoking's influence on probability of death due to lung cancer
                                  - ...

                                  The list could go on and on. Sometimes they're right, sometimes they're wrong. But it always started with a group of scientists that were in a minority in the beginning and decades later we largely accept reality as if public opinion never was any different. How can we just dismiss the remote chance of a danger lying ahead of us by our personal opinion or (cough cough) party affiliation?

                                  Now I am not saying Al Gore and his minions are right. But what if he is?

                                    To me its one thing to argue that we need to take better care of our natural resources such as fish, oil, forests, minerals and a totally different one regarding our effect on causing massive global warming at a rapid pace that would not be happening naturally if we didn't exist.

                                    I truly believe we have almost nothing to do with the "global warming" that is being seen over the decades. ITs the ebbs and flows of this planet. Happened for the billions of years before us and will continue for millions more after us.

                                    But I am all up for the conservation of our natural resources. Especially the conservation of our forrests and parks so that the whole world doesnt become one giant suburb.
