In my opinion nothing even comes close. Without the environment, there would be no abortion, no gay rights, no Iraq War, no economy, nothing even compares, because the environment makes all this possible. It's not just about saving trees.
I am all for green policies so long as they are based on reality. Al Gore is not reality. His own experts can't agree with each other and he himself doesn't practice what he is preaching.
Clean air and water are a must. Thoughtful use of fertilizers and pesticides a must.
Better built cars with economy towards fuel use a must.
Should the USA pay for everyone elses upgrades? NO. We should focus on what we do here.
Some day humans will be all gone, which will certainly happen, we just don't know how many digits in the number years before it happens. When it does happen, the influence of humans will fairly quickly disappear. A few million more years, this planet will spin along through the void with a very nice speciation, in equilibrium, with a food chain doing what it does best. This will come about, no matter what we do to our 2008 environment. As the universe waits patiently for that to happen, the number of human beings that live and die will be no more important than the number of pterodactyls that lived and died.
The earth is a single biotic system. It senses what is going on, and will react to defend itself. The human species is a destructive pathogen attacking that system. In defense, aintbodies are are being developed as we speak. The antibodies will win, or life on earth will die. It doesn't matter which.

Id say human issues are more important. The environment only seems like it is more important due to unethical and politically driven research being used to shuffle around uninformed and easily mislead people in order to propose impractical solutions designed to obtain more power and money.
How in hell can these so-called environmentalists be for amnesty for illegal immigrants. I mean don't they know that if that goes through we'll have about 50 million people coming to this nation within a few years.
what is the answer to "global warming?" castrate people so they can't reproduce? that would slow up "global warming." maybe we can save so much money and pollution that we can change our orbit so that we aren't orbiting a gigantic ball of fire. I wonder if orbiting a gigantic ball of fire has anything to do with "global warming." last time I checked, fire=heat.
the world will last longer then humans will if theres nuclear war
