This could be a business opportunity.
Israel has desalination plants to take care of their water. Yes business opportunity especially along the coasts where they suck up water they don't have or feed it to the little fish.

What is a global?....You really don't know much about this issue do you?...All I'm doing here is sharing info from the science....The CO2 is rising so fast that it will take some time for the temperatures to catch up...Regarding optimum temperatures for what dinosaurs? I do know that a rise of five to ten degrees will probably kill most of us, but don't worry about yourself you'll be fine...It is your grand kids that are going to suffer....

Did you read my post? Did I write the world will end? I clearly wrote that humans will survive. That is the problem with debating climate change, people get emotional and distort what is written.

BTW, I hope global warming/climate change is wrong, but I refuse to wear rose colored glasses and think what we are doing will have no effect on the planet. I like to face problems not have my head in the sand.

We just had a very cold winter here.....five to ten degrees sounds great to me.

You really think the oceans will do what they said..........oh they didn't so they pushed it back. They are all lunatics and if co2 was causing this destruction of the planet then it should be STOPPED. They just want to tax it though. Wake up.

Everything every beast does has effect on the planet and always has. Now it needs to be taxed? Just ludicrous. You breath co2 so you should be taxed. Do you agree with that?

Nobody wants to stop carbon emissions, they just want them reduced to a level that can be taken care of by the natural carbon cycle, (under 300ppm) but personally I think it is too late.

Me neither, man made globull warming doesn't exist.

In 2007 Al Gore predicted that summer in the North Pole could be “ice-free by 2013” in his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech. What a fantastic snake oil salesman, scam artist and boogie man to little children!

The truth is nothing, let me repeat that, nothing the globull warming nut jobs have predicted has come true. Not one. Fail, fail, fail, fail!

Global warming predictions proven wrong 97.4% of the time

Quote:
A new study by a “group of mean reactionary science purists” at the Journal Nature Climate Change took a look at 117 of the Left’s wild claims. Its results are devastating for Gore and the Left. They show that 114, or 97.4%, of them were wrong. They weren’t just a little “ooops, I hit the wrong number on my computer – wrong but wrong by a you – don’t – know what – in- the – world – you’re –are talking – about” wrong. The average “mistake” was an overstatement of global warming by double actual reality.
Climate models wildly overestimated global warming, study finds

That’s the upshot of a new study in the journal Nature Climate Change that compared 117 climate predictions made in the 1990's to the actual amount of warming. Out of 117 predictions, the study’s author told FoxNews.com, three were roughly accurate and 114 overestimated the amount of warming. On average, the predictions forecasted two times more global warming than actually occurred.
Maybe the globull warming nut jobs can scare little children but they're not going to scare me.

I am supposed to believe them because they were right 2.6% of the time?
