Yes, let's just halt all sorts of pollution immediately so it won't get any worse either.

Don't human beings emit carbon dioxide as part of our biological processes? Wouldn't mass suicide be the only ethical solution to the problem of man-made global warming? I mean after all, that's 5% of total climate change that would halt immediately.... We'll leave it to the polar bears to figure out how to make solar activity stop causing the other 95%.

What ever are you thinking of!Originally Posted by Don Corleone
Think of all the methane dead bloated bodies are going to make!
And you can’t dig a hole and pull the dirt in on your self either! Think what you are doing to the soil…
Do you see what a hopeless mess it is now!

Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

We're all Dead
True, from the moment of conception, for us all and our ancestors and descendants.
We don't really understand this "life" stuff anyway. Birth, death; we're always in-taking and out-putting, consuming and shedding. Our atoms fly all over the place and interact in ways we don't perceive or understand with everything and everyone around us. And everything else's and everyone else's atoms interact with us, in countless, almost infinite combinations and dynamics.
That we want to move our atom fields around more quickly than we can achieve with our own legs, so we mimic faster moving dinosaurs by sucking up their remains and burning them to make wheels spin that we can ride, seems a quite natural, logical progression. That we haven't yet figured out how to squeeze every last drop of that dinosaur juice efficiently, and so spew the dino-juice leftovers into that number one resource we share: air, is troublesome, but fixable, if we try harder and get smarter. Past history shows that we can. It's just a matter of time and effort.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
Re: We're all Dead
don't automatically equate industrial chemical polution with the possibility of CO2 induced AGW, thats as stupid as; "Why do you hate freedom" argument.

Re: We're all Dead
No, we should stop all machines now, then kill all CO2 emitting animals and then ourselves, it's the only way to save us!

According to the Sunday Times the possible (and increasingly probable) extinction of bees will get us well before the rising sea levels etc. And maybe they're right?

Re: We're all Dead
Bees aren't going extinct...last I heard the story was being blown out of proportion by bee keepers who had been using an illegal weedkiller/fertilizer/whatever chemical beekeepers use.
Re: We're all Dead
Never fear. The current stimulus package includes provisions to fund beekeepers and fishfarmers
