This is not a serious thread; albeit that it addresses the most serious issue facing all of us. We can no longer act like a petulant child - as made clear at the global climate summit last year. Moreover, if we fail to assume our proper leadership role on global warming, we face increasing isolation on the most important issue facing the world. Every other issue (i.e., the war on terrorism, the economy, etc.) is dwarfed by the catastrophic consequences posed by global warming. It is a frightening prospect, and very real. We can see the ice melting at an accelerating pace, and we know what is sure to follow; and yet we fail to act to stop the pollution that is the precipitating cause of the impending ecological disaster. It will be late to counsel then or pray when the devastation brought about by abrupt climate change has been visited upon us. It is no joke - as you shall soon see.
Oh come on, aren't you "the sky is falling" guys in the process of fixing the problem that we all are supposed to have caused? Seriously, there is no question about global warming. However, nothing is going to stop what the earth does naturally. Do you think that man can actually control this natural phenomenon? Do you really think that by changing a few light bulbs that you are offsetting what the Red Chinese and the Indians are producing and that you are going to stop them from ramping up their economies? Do you really believe that the US should destroy its economy and let the other emerging nations take US over? Hey, here's a thought; lets try plugging up all the volcanoes around the world that are spewing out greenhouse gasses.
I LOVE THIS THREAD! I really needed a laugh this morning.
Here's my contribution: Instead of spending time and hot water rinsing out messy jars and bottles (like from peanut butter and syrup), I just throw them right in the garbage can for transport to the landfill. Oh, and here's another: I use paper AND plastic at the grocery store to bag my stuff.
wow ... what a petulent child to think they are the only one that is right... let the devastation begin, it already late by several centuries from all the doom bringers before that... I like to contribute to global warming... I think Canada deserves some sunny summer days... I want to share the love... Russia could use some more sunny weather as well... I like to vacation in the arctic but its too cold, maybe global warming is the solution?
Each weekend I drive around the Pacific Northwest to attend various global warming rallies. Then I collect the plastic bottles of water they hand out and drive home and recycle them.
Gator, you are talking the talk and walking the walk and speaking truth to power. And guess what? At the end of the day, you are thinking outside the box.

Is this the dialogue from the movie the Day After Tommorrow.
Oh that's right it was Global Cooling in that movie.
I'm hoping for an increased isolation from liberals like you. Appears Global warming and facts and data arent allowed in the subject. Since Global warming nuts want to ignore other factors in climate change I will continue to ignore them.

Since all morality and responsibility comes from law, I can't figure out what law gives the US a leadership role. Please enlighten me.
Haven't you gotten the memo? the preliminary data is in, and since 2000 the warming rate has been decreasing and last year the earth actually cooled. The new term is climate change.
You all need to stop what you are doing and do the opposite because it is working too well. We can't have climate change. Climate change bad.
