In my opinion CO2 is having only a very small effect upon the climate. Other natural factors are much more important. |

Every year, I hear about how humankind is sparking global warming (I'm sure you all know the details by know), and every year no one does shit. Us humans are so fucking stupid. Year after year, a documentary is created or an article is written and the whole human race figues out that we area all just setting our own fate. WTF! Why is nobody doing anything right now. I heard on History channel that we could be developing technology this very moment that will supress all the polution we're giving off, and that it will only take a few decades, AND WE'RE STILL DOING NOTHING. We should be banning fossel fuels. It doesn't matter how much the economy will be effected, we'll all fucking die unless we change our course of life completely, and I mean everyone. Even when every one of you hear this, you will all still do nothing. I understand that a few people are working on it, but this is the fate of our race here, and everyone should be working on it. By the time we DO realize that we are almost fucked, the beautiful ice caps will be completely gone. It has been estimated that the human evolution can last another 1/2- 1 billion years. well, that shit will end here and now unless all of us step up. |

You're talking about 'surviving'?? |

I've become apathetic to the entire global warming discussion. A few reasons: |

People get a tad edgy about these kind of debates sometimes, perhaps it'd be best not to call other posters immature preachers for their views if you don't want flames. |

Shifting our pollution level is better for us whether GW is real or not... Deaths, Economy.. |
|
A number of scientists believe that global warming is due to the Sun emitting more heat than its has for a while, which before recently seemed just as speculative as the "its all the humans fault" theory. But now that we know the ice caps on mars are melting, along with ours, I think its safe to say that the sun is indeed playing a very significant, a perhaps primary role to global warming...and maybe not us. |

'But now that we know the ice caps on mars are melting, along with ours' |
|
The polar ice caps will be gone in 10 years. |
|
That my or may not be the case. The point is, is it because of our actions, or are we just victims of circumstance? People just assume its our fault, perhaps because we have a hard time understanding how insignificant we really are. |

Adapt or die, simple as that |

Sure it is. In fact, that seems to be the main issue. Just about every GW debate revolves around the idea that we are to blame. And because of this, we think we can save the world by reducing our emitions. Of course, our emitions amount to only .28% of greenhouse gasses. I'm no expert, but reducing our emitions doesnt seem like its going to do much. |

That's exactly how I feel. This whole GW thing, which I consider to be a nonsense, has detracted an incredible amount from the real issue at hand; people simply don't seem aware that we simply won't have any oil to burn in 25 years. It's incredibly important that we start making ourselves more efficient, regardless of the anthropic GW hypothesis. |

If people can chose between "Just chill out, listen to your government/preacher/tv, and don't worry" or "We have to chance in order for ourselves and especially our children to be able to live on this planet", the little element called 'Truth' doesn't really influence people's decision making. |

See, this is what im talking about. |

Awakened Mind, you see now why we're doing nothing after reading some of the more ignorant posts on your own thread, yes? it's sad that those who actually think for themselves are being cooked at the same rate as those that don't, but it's obvious that as whole the human race dug its own grave. |
|
Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
Is it me or all of the skeptics have expressed that the action being taken is necessary anyway; just not for the popular reasons? |
|
Maybe to clarify: I definitely think there are obvious realities (explosive population, peak oil) coming upon us that none of us can deny and that any sane person would have an interest in finding ways to bypass or lessen the impact of. I just don't think that there are enough people willing to make the necessary sacrifices around to be able to make a society-saving difference. |

Global warming is real or fake in both ways it doesn't mater. Our planet will die one day. Contributing or not wont save us from anything. Thus, im sure we will ruin the planet with our own WWIII. The planet is dying day by day moment by the moment.We have brought the technology and now we will suffer its consequences. This is how life works. Nothing is immortal and everyone has its limits. |
