Slim- Yes, it IS all about money. Ask the Koch brothers and their ilk who earn massive profits in the absence of carbon emission regulations. Surprised you can't see that. (No, not really.)

Hypothetically;
A conservative would suggest raising prices on AGW stimulants like fossil fuels to let the market sort it out A liberal would suggest public spending on more efficient transportation and alternative energy production A hypocrite turns on the AC, turns on the PC and types stuff online to annoy others about AGW, then goes and takes a drive in his car going to a barbecue or to work at a place which makes AGW stimulants. Again, hypothetically... just saying... AGW, self fulfilling prophesy made true one post/aggravated reader at a time Enjoy the Labor Day weekend folks, looks like a fine Saturday in NY

Well, since I don't drive and all of our power sources here are hydro-electric, your point is hardly universal.

Ah but have you or have ever been, a member the dominant 60 strong UN steering committee, worlds leading climate experts and shapers of opinion and policy club, driving the idea of the threat of global warming, which fits the bill of the Rockefeller's interests and a member of the Rockefeller's Club of Rome or and it's Ex-Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev sister club The Climate Task Force?

No, but I am a member of the Illuminati and have been instructed to tell you we are not pleased with you for giving everyone else credit for things that we do.

You don't care that we are over-exploiting our planet, and leaving behind a huge number of problems for future generations to fix. You expect that someday Humans will find ways to reverse or cope with global warming...perhaps you also assume that one day they will retrieve all the lethal radioactive waste that has been dumped in our oceans.....that won't escape for at least a thousand years either. I guess when people decide they are prepared to live less selfishly, they might replant the rainforests, who knows? The Earth is a living organism, and has a consciousness. You might argue that this consciousness is similar to the collective consciousness of a colony of ants, or a hive of bees....although I believe it goes beyond that. If we Humans live in harmony with the planet, and do all we can to be caretakers of our environment, Nature will treat us with kindness. If, on the other hand, we choose to destroy the beauty around us in a gluttonous orgy of avarice, then Nature will treat us harshly. It's not just the choices we make, but the reason we make them...... |

Sometimes I just want people to stop helping. " Downstream consequences" is the concept. It seems to elude the do something, ANYTHING, crowd fairly regularly. The mirrors attract the bugs, the bugs attract the birds and they get fried at a rate of one every two minutes. Yes they call them "streamers" because of the smoke trail left as the fried carcass drops to the earth. Thanks for saving our environment. Between 1,000 (If you believe the company.) And 26,000 (If you believe a group watching and counting.) birds a year get toasted well done. Hope mother earth is happy with the sacrafice.

It's really a metaphysical question and, as such, is beyond the realm of science. I imagine that there are some scientists who would agree with it as individuals, though.
Nonetheless, I thought everyone knew that it's not nice to fool with Mother Nature. |

True. But my prediction in this thread isn't based on my abilities as a mentalist. It was simply a statement of the obvious.

I don't know. Why do you think we keep pumping unregulated greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere?
