You seemed obsessed with  *accuracy according to Random.*     Are you actually saying that it is possible to stop Global Warming?  or are you too focused on gaging others opinions according to some litmus test you have developed?  How about sticking to the subject of the post for a change and tell me how you plan on cooling down this "Overheated" planet.

In case you haven't guessed it, I agree that global warming exists....    I'm not one of the  "Global Warming Skeptics" as you put it a few posts ago.   I just don't go around and try to sell an answer to others pretending that I know how to make the earth cooler.

Fact:   Global warming is a natural progression of the planets life.  We could not stop it if we wanted too.

Eventually the Ice will melt at the poles and there is nothing we can do to stop it (unless you can go out and find a huge asteroid to crash into the earth which could certainly happen again anyway.

Anny, are you retracting your observation?  I never said I had all the answers........you did.

.

But then, considering your overall accuracy, that's a dangerous recommendation to rely on.

Why does that not suprise me........?  As I said,   amusing.......

Why, thanks, Anny.  I'll take your faith as a compliment.   

When you so clearly don't.

  And you're right,  some will evolve, and some won't make it.  This movement to try and make mankind and nature remain stagnant has never worked and it never will. Change is continual, some things you can affect, and some you can't and shouldn't.    Try telling those people in Bangladesh who make less than a dollar a day that they should not be burning wood to cook their one meal a day because it puts carbon in the air and pollutes the earth.  Guess where they would tell you to go......

The Human race can't even take care of it's own, let alone think we can take care of the planet........

Like I said.......     The whole thing amuses me as to how self important some people think they are, and that they have all the answers.

 By the way Ramdom, why would you want to cut down oxygen producing trees just to make shingles to fix the roof?  or do you have that   "Oil devouring petroleum based fiberglass"  type?    How about all that coal energy that is used to make those forged nails to secure them to the roof?

Just think of how much Oil and trees we could all save if we moved back into caves.

The point I am getting to is that you're wrong.  

.

We'll be seeing all kinds of new species adapting to the new conditions.  That's what evolution is all about.  May they be smarter than we were...

  The point I am getting at is that it is impossible to stop global warming.  It just can't be done period! (Unless you can find a way to move the planet from it's orbit)   Yes, we are polluting the atmosphere and poisoning ourselves, sentencing our children to breath bad air.....   How about that news about discovering new varieties of sea life today......  (never would have happened unless global warming had helped melt some of the ice)   I'll bet there are some scientists giddy over that discovery....

You got the W, and the R,N,S types.  Can't leave out that Wolf-Rayet star.  Darn respectable.

Gee, Anny, I expect to be somewhere else before the Sun reaches Red Giant status.  And I hope mankind as a species will be too.   (Wow, Oh Be A Fine Girl Kiss Me Right Now Sweetheart--we're still at "Girl.")

That's like saying "no need to fix the roof...eventually the entire house will be worn down to dust by erosion."

.

The good news is we don't have to do anything about the volcanoes.  Even the underseas ones.  But you're right--eventually the planet will cleanse itself of us.  I'd like to postpone that day, is all.

  I am continually amused by the Idea that we Humans could stop global warming even if the whole Human race made it their single purpose for the next million years.  I'm sure that you realize that it was warming of the planet that allowed the formation of conditions that made life sustainment possible on earth in the first place.  I also have not heard anyone talk about the ever expanding star this planet revolves around. ( The one that the same scientists tell us will engulf the earth eventually as it morphs into it's next phase of existence).     Hmmm,  let me think about that one.    The Sun continues to grow larger and larger, and therefore get closer and closer to the Earth....?    Duh....  Of course the planet will get warmer and warmer. 

Yes,  I too am wondering how all these environmentalists are going to stop the volcanoes from erupting, especially the ones under the ocean.  I see this as the next  "Big Fad"  that the academics are trying to cash in on.  Imagine all the opportunities for grant money to flow.....   We will run out of Oil eventually anyway and the planet will cleanse itself as it always does then.  what the scientific community better start doing is finding a way to use alternative forms of energy instead of spending all these resources telling us the planet is getting warmer......    something we all were taught in sixth grade science class already...

Oh my God Barry, you mean all the following Scientific Institutes who unanimously claim that there is proof of anthropogenic cause to Global Warming are damn Leftist Alarmists.......

National Academy of Sciences

NASA Goddard Institute of Space Studies

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change

State of Canadian Cryosphere

Envrionmental Protection Agency

Royal Society of U.K.

Everyone knows that scientists have an economic interest in lying to the public! Dammit! I'm going to start getting my environmental info from Chevron from now on, because after all "Do oil companies care, oil companies do."

Hey, that worked for me when I got my info about cancer from Phillip Morris.

There are no global warming skeptics.  They are only politically motivated reality deniers.  I have not yet seen a single "global warming skeptic" who didn't bring political slams into the discussion.

The "global warming skeptics," many of the financed by the oil companies, are betting millions of lives against their short-term profits.
