Because our society depends so much on fossil fuel powered cars, there will always be emission, that will always contribute to global warming, until, as you said, the effects will be taking place. Then, I imagine, there will be a hurried need for hydrogen cars, or another alternative to fossil fuels. But even so, it would take a tremendous amount of time and money for everyone (or the majority) to convert to vehicles with lesser or no harmful emmisions. There are millions upon millions of people in the US alone that have one or more gasoline-powered cars. It would be an impossible task to even get half of these people to convert. Chances are, these cars, or alternative fuel sources would cost a large amount of money, and the cost would be a problem for alot of people. |

Ouch. What Courtney & Celoude have said are true. And it seems that even though there were many government committees and such who could for see these things comings it is as if they just now are realizing that these effects snowball. The larger the problem the faster it becomes an issue. |

I couldn't watch that video either, despite the fact that all of my software is up-to-date, so hopefully what I'm about to say isn't redundant. |

What is the timeline of all that? Like... as you said in the last part, if we continue like this how long do you think it will take before society really starts crumbling down? Centuries or more like decades? |
