Stop global warming!!!

Actually, the rate of planet warming is exponentially increasing at a rate unlike any of the other cyclical changes the planet has gone through.

I have no idea why people think it's just the government trying to scare us. Most reputable climate/atmospheric/geological scientists agree that the planet is warming up at a rate that is unnatural and that humans have something to do with it. And, guess what, most scientist aren't really pro-government. Especially when funding is being cut left and right.

It makes me sad that people are not taking this seriously.

I would never argue with that, but I hate it when some prick asks me what do I do to help the planet, to feed the hungry, to save the whales, to keep our borders safe, to bring John Bush back...
 
I refuse to father children. Overpopulation is the biggest problem and contributor to pollution. If we all agreed to having less children, the world would be cleaner, we would use less natural resources, and it would be easier to control those who willingly pollute.

So, how many kids do you have?:erk:


and all of Metals children said.........A men!!!!!!!!!!!

Well at least there's someone with some awareness around here.

It's funny because most of you said that GW is a load of crap. But really, be serious and watch the news or something. Step away of that personal and selfish bubble in which you live. Be aware of what's really happening.

Really, even in the US the effects can be seen. What's up with those really long winters?

Some of you may not see it, but that's because you're ignorant and don't see beyond your country.

Did you know that the US is the second-worst polluter of the world? Right next to China.

Be proud of your country:

The pictures you posted are a great visual of what you are typing!!!!!
Sounds like you have been watching the "or something"!!!!
 
long winters=global warming??? That's a good one. Next thing you know they will stop calling it global warming to something like global climate change since the fact's don't support the theory. I know, why don't we also mandate an even more inefficiant form of fuel in our cars too and drive the price of food up in the process?? I'm all for reducing pollution but just focusing on co2 (which plants need to survive) is mind numbing. I guess actual polution is old news, lets all jump on the co2 bandwagon and forget the rest.
 
Ever notice how people who talk about global warming always say 2005 was the hottest year on "record". They say record because we've only kept official records for about 100 years. They don't tell you Earths temperature has been much warmer and cooler.

QUICK FACTS?

Most of the temperature increase happened before 1940 (Before most carbon dioxide was released by cars and factories)

Carbon Dioxide always increases AFTER a cold period by about 600-800 years.(little Ice Age)
NASA reports because of solar flares the sun is the hottest it has been in 100 years.

Solar Flares are expected to increase by 50% until the year 2012.(This means we will warm up and have possible blackouts)
In the 1970's scientists warned the government of global cooling saying it could destroy the world we know! (sound familiar)

11,500 years ago America was covered with ice, meaning (this is going to blow your mind) Earth has been warming ever since.

More carbon dioxide and a warmer planet means more food can be grown!

The earth wobbles 23.5 degrees from left to right over 41,000 years greatly affecting temperatures.




QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

If there were no cars 11,000 years ago during the Ice Age, what caused the planet to warm up?

What caused the mini Ice Age 500 years ago and why did it warm back up?

The answer is a mixture of solar cycles, volcanoes, earths orbit around the sun, cosmic rays and many many more reasons
 
Be proud of your country:

So, you're saying that, even though I don't litter, don't support big companies dumping in the water, and do what I can to help the envirionment where I can, I'm an asshole because I live in a country where this shit happens?

Let me ask you this, does anything that you don't agree with happen in your country? Should I judge you for things you're not personally involved in just because your neighbor might be up to no good? Pretty stupid argument in my opinion.

Ok, first of all I'm glad you do your part.

And well, what the US does basically affects everyone (especially US-dependent economies like mine) so I can get to judge because it IS affecting me.

I mean, just read at the other posts, jeez.
 
The Fucking Pulp Mill they're gonna build in my area is a fucking crime against humanity!! They damned the river(Tamar)upstream where it's fresh,then wondered why they have massive silt and bacteria problems where the fresh and salt water meet at the city(it's a lovely sight and must attract many tourists lol) and are furiously pumping out the silt,i'd suggest they realise it's a fruitless task yet they must be seen to be doing something about it,hooray!!Now they build a pulp mill at the mouth of the river,this really sucks as i have an awesome view looking down the Tamar,not for too much longer though,not to mention what it will do to Tassies wildlife,Hooray for the Tasmanian Govt. what a bunch of absolute cunts!

You don't get to judge ME. Judge yourself. If everyone judged themselves, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in. Think about it.
 

You know what I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadilac El Dorado Convertable
Hot pink!
With whale skin hub caps
An all leather cow interior
And big brown baby seal eyes for headlights
YEAH!
And I'm gonna drive around in that baby
At 115 miles per hour
Getting one mile per gallon
Sucking down Quarter Pounder cheeseburgers from McDonalds in the old-fashioned non-biodegradable Styrofoam containers
And when I'm done sucking down those grease-ball burgers
I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the American flag
And then I'm gonna toss the Styrofoam containers right out the side
And there ain't a Goddamn thing anybody can do about it
You know why?
'Cause we got the bombs, that's why!
Two words: Nuclear Fuckin' Weapons
Okay!?
Russia, Germany, Romania
They can have all the Democracy they want
They can have a big Democracy cake walk
Right through the middle of Tienemen Square
And it won't make a lick of difference
Because we got the bombs
Okay!?
John Wayne's not dead
He's frozen!
And as soon as we find a cure for cancer We're gonna thaw out "The Duke"
And he's gonna be pretty pissed off
You know why?
Have you ever taken a cold shower?
Well, multiply that by 15 million times
That's how pissed off "The Duke"'s gonna be
I'm gonna get "The Duke"
And John Cassavetes
And Lee Marvin
And Sam Peckinpah
And a case of whiskey
And drive down to Texas...
