A manned colony on Mars and enough people to ensure that even if the earth is a total loss... We as a species survive...We kind of keep our eggs in one basket as they say and that is a bad thing IMO.
Is this going to be enough to get you to change your lifestyle, however minutely?

We already KNOW the enviornmental scientist before pushing man made global warming were shown to have been faking most all the tests to get the results they wanted.
I don't think there is any validity to any of it at this point.
Many of the weather changes on earth are mirrored on planets like Mars where we have never been, so I for one don't take this seriously at all. I think it is just a way for the far left to push left wing political changes into society at large. FAIL!

Mars already shows they have the same climate changes without man there. Now you want to put man there so Al Gore and company can claim we did something to Mars? No, please no.

I want to know .. What ever happened to Glo-Bull 'Cooling'?

Are you kidding? Most of the people on this forum are flat earthers. In fact, many relish the thought of f'ing up the planet for future generations, it is a goal they have (likely in some retarded form of retaliation for flunking science in H.S.)

Wasn't that THE crisis in or around the 1970's?
Yeah, we were going to have an ice age along with our misery index and gas lines back in the 70s.
Then we got warmer in the planetary cycle and the jerks decided to fake things with the likes of Al Gore to saw we were not having global warming.
Of course the earth hasn't been warming for some time, but don't let that bother you.

Maybe the 'Glo-Bull' cooling caused the 'Glo-Bull' warming?
Maybe the OP is right .. Us 'flat-earthers' are just too d@mn stupid or MEAN to see it!
The ocean currently has a pH of 8.1, which is alkaline not acid. In order to become acid, it would have to drop below 7.0. According to Wikipedia “Between 1751 and 1994 surface ocean pH is estimated to have decreased from approximately 8.179 to 8.104.” At that rate, it will take another 3,500 years for the ocean to become even slightly acid.

At our current increased acidity levels, many corals are starting to die off, and if the rate of acidification continues, most corals will be extinct by the time I'm 80.
This does indeed sound alarming, until you consider that corals became common in the oceans during the Ordovician Era – nearly 500 million years ago – when atmospheric CO2 levels were about 10X greater than they are today.
In 1954, the US detonated the world’s largest nuclear weapon at Bikini Island in the South Pacific. The bomb was equivalent to 30 billion pounds of TNT, vapourised three islands, and raised water temperatures to 55,000 degrees. Yet half a century of rising CO2 later, the corals at Bikini are thriving. Another drop in pH of 0.075 will likely have less impact on the corals than a thermonuclear blast. The corals might even survive a rise in ocean temperatures of half a degree, since they flourished at times when the earth’s temperature was 10C higher than the present.
There seems to be no shortage of theories about how rising CO2 levels will destroy the planet, yet the geological record shows that life flourished for hundreds of millions of years with much higher CO2 levels and temperatures. This is a primary reason why there are so many skeptics in the geological community. At some point the theorists will have to start paying attention to empirical data.

You need to talk to the Chinese. Also talk to India. You see we are told to reduce our carbon footprint by you global warming loons but never take into account they are increasing theirs faster than we are decreasing. Then there is also the issue that co2 makes up such a small percentage of the greenhouse effect it's barely recognizable. Don't let that stop you from ranting on though. As for me I took an offer of 1 billion carbon credits from some looney tune website that promised they would not shower or drive their cars to make up for my carbon footprint so I'm doing my part. I got the certificate to prove it too.
