Do you think we should do something about global warming?

Question

Do you think we should do something about global warming?

Answer 1

if you're anywhere near Birmingham, visit the NEC between 1-3 May and you'll see some of the billions of things that are being done about global warming

but those are just the technologies.   To implement, we need global policies.   We won't get those unless The People clamour for them.  

We decide our own fate.   Go make a noise.

Answer 2

If we don't who will?

Answer 3

As far as I know, we're working on it, but industrialized countries need to keep producing goods.  Canada is a bad one for that--the politicians say one thing--but when we consumers don't show up to foot the bill all h**l breaks loose.

Answer 4

Answer 5

At least not untill we are all in the middle of planetary disastres and it becomes a battle for the survival of humanity every where.

but it does not hurt to take care of the place
