What Is Your View on Global Warming?

Stealth Hunter · 04-12-08, 12:01 AM

I believe it exists and I believe that humans and environmental causes are to blame (50/50).

Ironclad2 · 04-12-08, 12:08 AM

If the American public hadn't been scare-mongered into hating nuclear power a few decades ago, it wouldn't be an issue.

Well, we humans are to be blamed for a lot of things about the enviroment, but it is not everything our fault the enviroment has changed many times since its existance and probably it will continue to change untill it it no longer exists.

Belive it or not, America is not the only country in the world that produces CO2.

:p bunch of b.s.

US of A is not a main cause of it with our cars. Look at former Soviet states and s/e Asia. The Earth is their dumping ground and they don't give a damn - China and the former Soviet states are the WORST- all they want to do is make $Money$, dumb the stuff, and move on.

The BIGGEST joke is hybrid car owners. They "think" they are saving the planet.

True, very true, they ARE saving the planet USING the hybrid car/vehicle for FUEL - only.

Where they have their butt blinders on [the tree huggers] is HOW the car was made - which destroys MORE than the fuel they SAVE over the lifetime of owning the car.

One example. You need to use the mineral called Nickel as a component to make the rechargeable battery. Largest source of Nickel is in an open pit mine in Canada. That ONE open pit mine has a reaction with the rain. It rains in Canada - some days

. When it does rain, the chemical reaction of water and Nickel DESTROYS ALL VEGETATION FOREVER for a radius of 5-10 miles beyond the open pit mine perimeter. That is just ONE mine doing their "thing" causes hell for the planet Earth supporting do gooders thinking that they are doing something right.

Then you have to ship it [the Nickel] to China to process it - use of Oil for the ship to get it there- gotta send it FROM Canada to China - more waste and wrecking the enviroment. Once their slave labor is done "processing" it, more Oil is used to power another ship to send from China and send it to Japan to convert/use it as a rechargeable battery for use in the USA or elsewhere in a hybrid car.

Hybrid car owners are a laughing stock. They wreck MORE of the planet then save it just to make the rechargeable battery, alone.

everyone likes warm fuzzies.

It's like pissing in your pants with dark pants on, No One seems to notice, but it gives you a warm feeling all over...

I'm sick of this eco-religion. Weather is dynamic and humans can adapt to change. End of subject. It is just another way to create a new tax.

I'm more worried about pollution.

More worries for you:
They might tax you going wee-wee, or worse yet, going #2 and you get taxed for just taking a dump, by the pound. That could be one hell of a pile of crap.

Why do I have a Jap Avatar? Do I have to make 25 more posts just to get rid of it?

They already do: It's called my water bill:rotfl:

.
...in addition to 25 more posts, you also need to swear allegence to algore, then you will have the PLAN sailor (Chinese) avatar:rotfl:

S.o.B. Stuck with it, egh - the avatar.?

I am like you, I too have a water bill. But, I have a sewer bill too, but have an odd situation.

My town does not have a sanitation district that is:
when you take a dump and flush it goes away but you $pay$ the water company to take a dump - kinda of - butt [no pun], I have a sewer district to deal with flushing said dump.

I $pay$ a neighboring sanitation district to take a dump ... BASED on the amount of gallons of water I INTAKE.

Seems ok if you take a dump. What is NOT fair, is the water I use outside to water the lawn or wash the car the water does NOT re-enter the sewer system and I should not be charged for it.

I got a DEDUCT meter installed in my house for the sewer bill. It deducts from the sewer bill [by-the-gallon] the amount of water that goes out to the in-ground Sprinkler System or the outside faucits and I am not billed for that in my sewer bill.

After the $600 installation fee, it paid for itself within a year.

I can go outside, take a dump, hose it down, and it costs me nothing. Problem is the neighbors keep calling the cops. What's the problem?

Back to the topic:
What effect on Global Warming? Feces material is HOT out of any oriface.

Nah, just want to take a dump with no hasslees [from you or my neighbors] and not be worried about Global Warming as an after EFFECT.

It's happening and it's our fault. On the other hand, i'm no fan of the IPCC's reports on "zomg end of humanitz" and annoying fearmongering. I agree that our lives are going to get harder and that we have no one but ourselves to blame. But anytime some bunch of dudes pitches a wobbly and screams "end of the world as we know it" I just roll my eyes.
