Very informative and a little scary.
I AM listening to science experts and professors etc. The ones that do not agree with that it is caused by humans. You make it sound that all scientists agree on the issue.Yeah - no
Climate change caused by humans is real. And a real problem. I have been around biologists since the early 90s they were all well aware of the existence of a warming climate and some of the problems that it will cause. Climate models and studies are getting better and showing us more.
My only problem is we are not going to die out in 12 years or 20 or even 50 if we do nothing. We are just going to have bigger and bigger storms, droughts and eventually the displacement of people. The longer we put off trying to reign ourselves in the bigger the problems are going to get. And the more misrible those that suceed us will be.
This idea that it's all a fraud is total bunk. Do not listen to people who want to stick your head in the sand. Do not listen to people trying to convince you it's not real. Do not listen to those that try to teardown the voices trying to tell you the problems. Read the science. Listen to experts. Biology profs and meteorological experts are not out to trick you.
I´m not to quick to dispute that the earth is warming. Fine, lets just say it is.Call and believe what you will, try and explain to me how and why the ice caps are melting at a unusual speed, plus the ferrous weather that the all parts of the world are going through, there will always be doubters and disbelievers, the studies over the past years must mean some thing I would have thought, we have become a throw away society, using resources much much quicker than we should do which in my opinion can't be good for the world, every one is entitled to an opinion but just look at the facts and studies[/USER]
You or I will not see the end project it's going to take a few years before it gets there, the aim I believe is to slow it down, I was only reading today that the USA are giving up on there recycling programme because it is to expensive, what with that and Mr Trumps attitude to global warming it seriously doesn't help things, I just wonder at which point the doubters will say oop's let's do some thing..... then it will be to late, There are many countries that are just ignoring what's going on you just need to look at the rivers (JOKE) they are just one sea of plastic, that's not mentioning the seas and oceans of the World, we live in a beautiful world how can people just respond to the problems Who ever reads this make your point but keep it friendlyI´m not to quick to dispute that the earth is warming. Fine, lets just say it is.
What I don´t agree on is that it is man made.
You remember the late 1970 early 1980 btw?
When they all said a new ice age was imminent. Still waiting on that one.

Maybe it might be an idea to meditate on whether this discussion, whilst civil, might be - possibly - political in nature, if so can I propose that we take it off-line.

What irritates me alot also is that no one seems to be mentioning the sun. That massive ball of fire we are circling around.
Solar activity has a huge impact on earth climate, yet it seems that some scientists wont take that into the equation.
Weird.
It´s the same with vulcanic activity. Just one vulcanic erruption causes massive amounts of Co2. Far more than all the chimneys in the world.
Yet again. It´s out of the equation. You have to take in all the factors to get an honest result, and we know for a fact that, that is not the case.
Fact is that these so called scientists have tampered with the numbers on numerous ocasions. Probally so that they can keep on getting funds, and keep their jobs.
And it is not "just" about the climate. We have fucked up (and are still doing so) this planet on so many levels. To name just one: microplastics have invaded your body and even your beer.
I am fairly certain plastics haven't been around before the advent of man.

I was actually thinking of Science Fiction story set in a far future, millions of years, humans are extinct and all signs of human society's existence have decayed/erodedaway, but visiting alien scientists realise there once was an advanced civilisation by the vast residual trace presence of microplastics in the environment.
