I'm just counting down the days till we all explode......or freeze.....or overheat.....or one of the other random side effects of our own greedy and squandering natures.

But other than that........

I am scared of underwater creatures, so I am definitely not in favour of it... though I do look good with a tan hmmm.

God bless global warming! My heat bill will be half of what it was last year, and as everyone knows, it's all about me.

I think it's a perfect example of the arrogance of certain people who have relegated this problem to beinng the rant of some "tree hugging hippes". Only when people loose property and life will Americans believe that the environment is anything more than another foe who we must break. Sadly, by then, it will take decades to correct things.

As a side-note, example: If I drive to work, it takes me 12 minutes without traffic. If I take the Bus, it takes 90 minuts.

i don't see how the sun gets off scot-free in the global warming blame game. leave it to people to be so arrogant as to take all the credit for climate change.

Point blank: if the ice caps melt, high water will be the least of our worries - few may be left alive if it makes it that far. There's a lot of bacteria and viruses that we've never been exposed to, that have lain dormant under and inside that ice. Should the ice caps melt, we have the potential for a multiple global pandemic that will make the Black Death in the 1300s look so much like the common cold.

And it took Western Europe 4 to 5 centuries to recover the population of humanity that it had just prior to the first mass outbreak in the 14th century.

Which is exactly what we need-- another black death, or at least a Pig Flu.

Given the present global political and economical situations, I think we will probably blow ourselves up before the ice caps melt.

But, if by some strange twist of dumb luck (whether it would be good or bad luck is in the eyes of the beholder) that doesn't happen by 2050, I'll have to go along with Xandre's assessment of what will become of this spinning ball we call home.

What I wonder is even if everyone took global warming seriously (including big corporations), would we be able to halt and/or reverse the process?  Something tells me that is going to be a long, hard row to hoe.

I think in my own naive way that if I do the best I can at being an ecco-friendly person that I can make a difference and I wish everyone was doing the same because then certainly it would make a difference, no?

I mourn for the loss of my blizzardy winters and goldn autumns... scary stuff, but it just adds to my theory about the human race as generally being self-centred and ignorant.

I'm not sure what to think...

[laurel714.livejournal.com]

Crock. Of. Shit.

I am all for recycling and finding alternative sources of fuel and planting trees and conservation. By all means.

I am NOT for perpetuating a false sense of fear to control the masses. Has nobody ever read the Almanac? Are people so out of touch with nature that they have forgotten that weather patterns have cycles? Or am I just THAT OLD?

Fuck you, Al Gore and your "Inconvenient Truth." Pick up a science book, for goodness sake.

Wow, maybe I should say what I really think, huh.

Makes the 419 scam seem quite tiny and irrelevant.
