I hope this happens sooner than later. The proverbial Gaia is taking action.

In time all living creatures on earth are doomed either way, due to the sun burning out and making the earth inhabitable. Of course this is billions of years away but true nevertheless.

I can safely say that i'm not worried. These "scientists" are spewing Ecology 101 information linked together by weak near-unrelated connections. I won't give you a ecology primer but you've got to use some logic and research, global warming is caused by what? greenhouse gasses (read: smoke) trapped in the upper atmosphere creating a "greenhouse" effect of warming. now. what's global dimming? those same things closer to earth, blocking sunlight, essentially protecting us from our own mishap.

Now, take both elements away, what do you have? the first 8,000 years of human life. You can't remove one without the other, and they're both protecting us, they even agreed on that. We cannot warm earth significantly enough for a climate change on an unevolutionable scale, it's junk science.

Now also consider this, we're releasing roughly a quarter of the gasses we were in the Industrial age, and we haven't seen a goddamn change since then, so why is this so urgent now? why NOW are we suddenly causing so much more pollution when we're so much more enviromentally secure?

And this business of the old guy on part 1 with the lumin meter? 50, almost 60 years difference? can half a century old technology be compared to what we use today? i think our new meters are just more accurate.

These scientists are all drawing doomsday conclusions too quick and not thinking it through. And if we do die out, so be it. it's our own fault for not listening to people who can't follow the scientific process.

I can't wait until Al Gore comes along and makes a new doomsday trip of a movie about this.

Hey i could be wrong, i may be way off the mark, maybe they just didn't present the material clearly enough and i missed the point. But from this and independant research we're looking at another doomsday theory to hem and haw about while in reality it's the creator's fault for not carrying the 2.

How many of you people trust your local weather forecast? The Data gather about weather can vary so drastically that it is unreliable. The variables invovled are to many to accurately calculate or even say there is a reliable trend. The tempurature being out by one degree either way is to small of a number to hold onto as any true fact. Yes this very well maybe a problem. It is possible that the world is warming up or cooling down due to certian events.

What I don't understand is why so many people take everything that they hear or see on the news as gospel truth. How much of this is to get people to donate to a cause. Does anyone here understand how the "non-profit" organizations that bring some of these stories forth work. Not all non-profit organizations are out there for the good of this planet. An organization gathered this information. That organization can choose what information it want to use and what information it doesn't want to use.

I will end with this statement
eveyone go out and do some of your own research before you start falling for every "story" that someone set infront of you.

Human Ignorance is the greatest weapon of mass destruction...

It's a bliss as well.

I'm glad that at least I won't live another 500 years, to the end od the world.

Its so easy to blame the Goverments for everthing but the buck stops with us the people, a simple example of why we are in this shit :

Collie a coal mining town with 10,000 voters.

We needed an upgraded power station in Western Auatralia and they were going to go natural gas as it would be cheaper and cleaner to run, but because the people of Collie who rely on coal mining to make living they used their voting power to ensure the elected Goverment had a policy to buid a coal power station, so you can't just blame the Government its us the people who make this bad shit happen.

Fuck all you coal miners and lumberjacks find other jobs or fucking die you stupid cunts!!!

I really think that industrialized societys will always end up killing themselves. Why are we even here? are we some type of experiment? What is the meaning of life?
