  1. Spending all our money on pointless c**p.


  2. With energy cost escalating at the present pace billions are being saved by this blessing from heaven, Millions would be freezing to death and with all the ice melting and naturally being purified just think how much the planet is being helped.

  3. Man-made global warming is a scam. The earth is presently in an interglacial period, before the next ice age. Enjoy the warmth while you can.

    Let me start off by saying we (my family and I) live 100% off of the grid and are completely self-sufficient with a 0% Carbon footprint. I believe this is the first step anyone can make “help the environment”. Once you convert your own life style to a greener more eco friendly route, you can start helping others.

    We definitely didn't start global warming, but we definitely do contribute to it now.

    Natural gas (or Methane along with other thanes) for example, is completely a natural contributer to global warming and is derived pretty much the same way as oil. ie. Matter (animal, plant etc) decomposes over time resulting in a anaerobic (hope I spelled that right) decay of non-fossil organic material / gas (natural gas or methane).

    One problem with global warming is that the concept is so vague in the minds of the people. The critical interpretation is basically how it’s explained in school and the news. However most of the public see global warming connected with the ozone and pollutants which cause harmful greenhouse gasses, etc. therefore investigating and fighting for things like alternative energy (ie. Solar, wind, hydrogen, ethanol, biodiesel, etc)

    Greenhouse gases are real and do contribute to global warming. Think of the different gas layers like ozone (o3) that circumference the globe as the clear plastic on a greenhouse. Longer rays of light from the Sun go in and reflect off different thermal masses bouncing back and creating shorter lengths of energy that cannot exist the plastic barrier. These beams then just continue to bounce around inside the green house until they’re finally absorbed completely (some do escape but very few), thereby warming the greenhouse greatly even in cold temperatures.

    Basically there are 2 ways that this reaction (or lack of) affects the planet. Global warming and global cooling.

    1. as we add to the gases in the stratosphere, where the ozone layer is (Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, etc), we add to the plastic of the greenhouse, trapping more short wave length energy and heating the earth more.

    2. as we deplete the ozone (with chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs), we allow more long wave length energy, which bounces back out to space without heating any thermal masses on earth, thereby cooling the planet.

    It’s pretty easy to see the results..

    Melting ice sheets & glaciers

    Floods & droughts

    Great hurricanes & cyclones

    Seasonal extremes

    Seasonal phenomena’s

    Species extinction

    New & resurgent diseases

    There are many ways to stop both global warming and cooling from accruing or at least slow them down until we can discover a way to reverse it, but Stop burning fossil fuels is the biggest.

    I currently own 2 converted h2 vehicles which run on 100% hydrogen and 1 EV (electric vehicle), not to mention our home is completely off the grid, using alternative energy (solar, wind, etc)

    If you interested I offer several DIY alternative guides to walk you step by step threw Greener living, how to run your car on alternative fuels and being self-sufficient, at agua-luna com or

    Hope this helped, feel free to contact me personally if you have any questions if you’d like assistance in making your first self sufficient steps, I’m willing to walk you step by step threw the process. I’ve written several how-to DIY guides available at  www agua-luna com on the subject. I also offer online and on-site workshops, seminars and internships to help others help the environment.

  5. Some degrading of present agricultural land due to drought, some flooding of low lying coastal land due to rising sea levels, more extreme weather events.

  6. Longer growing periods for food and livestock. Better living conditions free from long winters. Better driving conditions which leads to less accidents. Shorter winters. Smaller electricity bills because I can open the windows and enjoy a more confortable climate. This also leads to less oil being used so I am being a conservationist and did not realize it.

    People will get less sick because the flu thrives in cold dry air and not warm moist air.  More areas can be used to grow food example Greenland. Less sever Hurricanes and thunderstorms and more rain in drought areas. yes I know this goes against some beliefs but cooler means more hurricanes not more sorry. More fresh water in the oceans and rivers and lakes from being trapped in the form of ice and glaciers.  More sunny days which makes people happy. Better weather for baseball and football or any outside sport for that matter. More inhabitable areas to live in so the people of Northern Europe can enjoy the outside some.

  7. Al Gore is an idoit. Global warming does not exist!!!!

  8. As Aga P said it is not all man made. The earth has suffered many disasters during it's life we know of. This is just another one of them

  9. If global warming carries on the trend it is now, we will experience more flooding, bad storms, hurricanes and extreme draughts. Unpredictability is the word!
