Max So you believe that none of this is happening as a result of the largest single virus the world has ever faced? Mankind. Never said that. I do believe that the warming of the planet is, at least to some degree, due to the influence of mankind. But I also believe there is probably nothing we can reasonably do about it. Nor do I believe it will become critical prior to the next ice age. We are probably the only critter that does not return what it took in some form, Breed with reckless abandon even though we are "curing" disease meant to keep our numbers low.. What other animal has hunted or expanded to extinction other animals. Domestic cats have virtually eliminated the vole population in England. And there are certain viruses and bacteria which, given the right set of circumstances, could extinct homo sapiens. No wonder there is aids and disaster and "global Warming". The earths immune system is in high gear trying to kill of the most dangerous virus of all.... us! That's a simplistic way of looking at the issue. The Earth will be continue to flourish long after man is extinct, but there is no "immune" system attempting to eliminate us. We are doing that to ourselves. Overpopulation will eliminate a substantial percentage of the human population of the planet long before global warming has any substantive effect. Bacteria cultured on an agar plate ultimately expends its food supply and pollutes its environment to the point of self-destruction. The Earth is a large agar plate in a sense. We will kill ourselves, but doubtful by global warming. I'd put my money on overpopulation or nuclear war. Preservation at this stage of the game is useless. Like quitting smoking after you have the cancer. I for one am not even going to try. What is the point. I am going to live big and wasteful... join me! Sadly you are right. The global warming drumbeaters would like us to be hate ourselves for our excesses, but the vast majority of people won't get on board. Max |
