infoterror said:Global warming - more accurately called "climate change" - is one part of it. Pollution, extinction, and lack of resources will also follow.
Lord SteveO said:I get you. Even if global warming is bullshit, pumping hundreds of tonnes of poinsonous gases intothe air and dumping waste inot rivers, lakes, oceans etc is not a good idea. It still messes the palce up and harms us in the end.

I can't tell if you were being sarcastic or not.
Susperia said:I dont' think the term "climate change" is any more accurate than global warming. I mean, they both suggest a change in tempurate. Anyway, my point: the change in climate is only ONE effect of all this. Without a proper ozone layer around the earth, we CANNOT survive. People will get skin cancer by being in the sun, everything will die because the sun is so strong without that protective layer around our atmosphere.

Susperia said:It's because no one gives a shit, very few people are worried about the earth and the long term effects we're having on it. When you do say you care about the earth, people label you as a hippy. We are a great species, huh?
I'm actually starting to believe that people are more like parasites than like animals. We take what isn't ours, cause harm to our "host" (the earth) and it's very obvious this day in age that the earth would be better off without us. There's a lot of evidence to support that we're not necessary to chain of events here on earth, and that we are actually hindering them.
It's really sad because things didn't have to turn out this way, except it's probably too late to go back to how it used to be. Does anyone else have knowledge of what I'm saying here? I've been reading books on global warming, GMO's, the destruction of rain forests, etc since high school but I feel like no one else notices these things.
