Global Warming versus KNOWN threats?

Question

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080506/ap_on_he_me/child_health

This article says 10 million children die every year from treatable causes.

We know they are dying.

10 Million.

But our blessed UN and people like Al Gore Will spend billions on a (possible) threat which currently we do NOT know how to stave off without bankrupting the world.

Seems like an obvious choice to me...does it to you?

Answer 1

This article says 10 million children die every year from treatable causes. and???? this has been happening for years it just hasn't just suddenly popped up.

the UN is actually doing something. have you ever heard of unicef? there are also other UN bodys assisting other related causes.

now on to global warming. you may not understand fully the gravity of the situation. not acting is far more costly then acting.

Answer 2

You are very naive,You are missing the point entirely

What makes you think for a minute they WANT  to save dying children

there are riots because of famine all over the place

whilst more than half of the worlds food production is diverted to the production of ethanol

http://byderule.multiply.com/journal/ite...

famines are allowed to happen( if not stimulated )as part of the depopulation strategy,

the point is they want less people NOT more

.

That was what was discussed at a Bilderberg meeting in 1998 in Copenhagen ,the Americans suggested a depopulation of the world of 60% ,so why would they now be concerned about feeding the starving or curing the dying children  ,that is ridiculous and defeats the object.

and here you come wanting to save 10 million

give me a break that is just about high treason

people used to be shot for that

The idea that governments are concerned about  helping people must come from you own imagination .

wish full thinking,it is your idea not an official policy of you government ,

Their focus is on Global control with about HALF of the present number of people in it.

as far as global warming is concerned that also seems to be stimulated into getting worse fast http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

Answer 3

Known threats? Dead brain cells from mass hysteria and peoples inability to think THROUGH the long term economic effects of ecofeelgood insanity.

DUMB MASSED ecowhacks fail to look past their noses to see the long term effect other then a "clean" toilet to poo in.

How about mass starvation as the result of using food for biofuels to begin with!!

Restricting the use of DDT has made malaria a global killer in areas where is was once eradicated.  13 million deaths and counting.

Global Fuel prices rise as the result of increased demand and restricted supply.

At to that the insane cost of proposed government cesspool programs to make us all "feel" better about our poor "wittle" self esteems thinking we are helping the planet, and bankruptcies of countries are not to far down the road.

"F" the UN, and "F" Al Gore. Fascist style controls of economies is not going to provide a long term workable solution to any problem.

Answer 4

man made global warming does not exist. it's probably the biggest hoax of our time that is being perpetrated.

Algore is banned in England and is basically being equated with a snake oil salesman when it comes to him attempting to speak in public to raise funds for a cause that does not exist. It's just sad that some people are so much into doom and gloom they latch on to his fantasy of man made global destruction, some of them to the detriment of their own daily lives. what a sin. Shame on you Algore

Answer 5

That Richard guy is quite cool!

Answer 6

theres no such thing as global warming i watched a documentury when the topic first came up every one was actually worried about car pollution and etc. were causing global cooling it, and they had proof for it and everything it was the funniest thing i ever saw

Answer 7

Thank you for a great question.

What a good example of the harm caused by the global warming crowd.

Also, now, destruction of rain forests is accerating due to  enviromentalist mandates to produce more biofuel.  First food was diverted to biofuel production, now land not used for food production is being cleared to grow biofuel crops.

Answer 8

The UN is a political body and political organization do not solve problems.   If you want to help those that are dying find a creditable charity and donate to them.

Answer 9

The fact is that whether it is 10 million, 10 thousand, or only 1, these are things which we can, and should be doing something about!

Wasting our resources on a myth is morally wrong!

As this hoax about 'Global Warming' perpetuates itself, the figures will only increase, and more deaths will be caused by the arrogant, self-righteous, ignorant fools who can not see what is really important! (And something which we could actually do something about).

The media, the IPCC, NATO, and the misguided followers of this myth have much to answer for.

Answer 10

... ya'll giving me a headache.

When you guys get flooded, I'll point at you and laugh.

Answer 11

You infer that all the money is being transferred from the fight against hunger to the fight against climate change. You understand so little. If you're soooo concerned, then give, give, give to them. Start a movement against hunger. Or maybe Americans each too much of the worlds food. No, you didn't think of that little fact! You are just too angry at someone telling you that your actions are harming the planet, so you're trying to re-direct the argument. You're a pathetic glob of DNA.

Answer 12

Your argument might make sense if you can show that "billions" are being spent.  Oh would that it were so!

Answer 13

Wayne G,

The statetment that Al gore is banned is simply untrue

Neither he or his documentary are banned, and as the Judge ordered it is correct except for a couple of errors.

(11) or (9) depend on which media you follow

One of these was that there was no link between GW and Reef die off, problem is scientists made the link only just before the trial.
